Bane + Blasphemy Support?
" Nah, there are people running around with 11-14 auras. You think they can't figure how to run a single 6-link curse set-up. (⌐■_■)
|
|
" if you want to do damage you need damage nodes aura bots work because they need no damage, looking at the skills you would only go 100k with all damage nodes good gear and a 6link, probably caped around 200k damage. also like half your gems are in reduce mana cost uniques that don't really work here |

Bane has dmg of old Essence Drain. Essence Drain was more than enough to clear everything with single cast. Now we get Huge AoE "essence drain" that also apply curses.
I see the future: A lot of people will play Bane. |

if you can link bane to blasphemy and augment its damage with curses socketed (but not casting) then it won't raise its mana multiplier. curses do not have a mana multi
|
|
|
the curses would have two triggers so they wouldn't work, so you would need support gems that raise mana cost 20-30% each, totaling 253%(efficacy, controlled destruction, swift affliction, void manipulation). mana 35%*2.53 = 88.5% that vs losing a chest for death's oath is about the same opportunity cost. And the damage is about the same, could be more with a +3 empower or low life but again that comes with costs.
|
|
" but what if the chest you use IS Death's Oath... because why not have more damage? ... I don't actually think that would be a smart idea and realize it is irreverent to your point... |
|
" ah you're right, specifically the wording of bane states it only gains additional damage per curse applied. and ya i agree you wouldn't be able to apply the curse with bane if linked to blasphemy, assuming even that interaction would work |
