GhazzyTV - Essence Drain & Contagion (or Bane/Soulrend) Trickster [SC/HC/Uber Elder/Shaper]

First of all great build, playing it in flashback.

Just have one question, will i be able to get same effect and stacks with blight as i do with with wither, will i lose some dps?

And how do i even check number of stacks? Kinda lost.


Tnx

blight self cast with wither jewel is more dps than totems ofcourse

but you put yourself at more danger (my virgin uber elder kill with self cast blight i only died twice)

no. of stacks = withered duration / blight cast time i think

Right now im in a dilemma if i should use wither or blight totems, mostly on more difficult bosses.

i hate totems because bosses destroy them
21/0 vaal blight + efficacy + infused channelling + controlled dest in my Vertex does more dps than my 6L ED at max stack

I just had a Cospri's Will drop in SSF. Best body armor I've seen so far. Worth equipping and running a second curse on Bane? If so, what's a good 2nd curse, and which support would I drop for it?

Also, I'm level 84 but not running EB MOM yet, got 4200 life but only 1700 ES+unreserved mana. Cospri's would get me a nice chunk of additional ES, probably close enough to go EB/MOM. I'm not entirely clear what the benefit of that is, however, over just going hybrid. I've read somewhere in this post that hybrid is tankier, if that's so then why go EB/MOM?

So just got Devouring diadem so now im thinking what should i do, right now im using Zealotry and 2 more dps jewels but i love enfeeble curse and thinking about switching.

What do u guys think, Zealotry + 2 jewels or respec for 2nd curse and using enfeeble as aura?

Iam a little confused about the gem to use:

I use a mix of all of it:

- Bane
- Wither
- Contagnain
- Essence Drain

Vaal Gems:

- Blight
- Righteuos Fire


Aura:

- Malevolence
- Discipline


I know i make a lot of things wrong, maybe someone can check my build/gear and can give me advices how to use the gems (1., 2., 3.,)

My flasks probably need a little change, or?

Probably a dumb question as I am a noob when it comes to mechanics, but wouldn't a Heretic's Veil helmet turn a Bane/Despair setup into a kinda always on mass killer? Like a Righteous Fire build?

not really, range of bane is way further than blasphemy aura radius
