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

hi, im doing your build and really enjoy it so far!

I have two question, what the hp/mana ratio should be with clock of defiance? I have 51k health and 4121mana(2678 with one curse). If I use grand specturum, i will have 5k mana and 3.3k unreserved. Is grand spectrum needed? will i have too many mana with it?

I have a ring slot that allow me to wear a unique ring, do you think Praxis will be better or the dream fragment?

here is the link to my champ https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/1612/characters

Thanks!

Hi Ghazzy, great guide. I played this as a starter build but I keep upgrading it, killed Shaper twice yesterday for the first time ! Even dropped a flask ahah :)


My gear :

EDIT : And vulnerability + blight gloves really give a huge DPS boost in single-target. Don't have numbers but it feels really good.

Congrats on those kills! How much DPS are you achieving currently? Do you happen to have a Path of Building pastebin link that you can share too? :) thanks

In the hideout, with flame golem, i'm at 72k~ on ED.
With frenzy charges it can go up to 93k, but you have to add blight totem which is very strong.

Here is the pastebin PoB link if you want to give it a look. :)
If you have questions, feel free to add me ingame.

This looks really awesome, I like the way you have it set up. I think I will change things up a bit and do what you have here. Thanks for the pastebin!

What are you're thoughts on running two curses? I'm running vuln temporal right now but the skill investment is pretty high, missing some health and mana but im on softcore.

Thanks for that i'll check it out!

Hey Ghazzy (And all the other ED/contagion guys)
Loving the build and currently clearing T14/15 maps and Uber lab really fast. Have not tried any of the guardians/Uber atziri/shaper yet.

This is my current setup where i switch vuln/enfeeble depending on map mods or bosses https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/PercyTheMightyMidget/characters?characterName=<Bigsmalllargeguymanboy>

Always looking for tips on how to improve and modify my build. So if you have any throw it at me!

Loving this build, thx for the guide!

Random thought:

What if you used tukohama's fortress to get a second totem https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Tukohama%27s_Fortress

You would add wither to your blight gloves with spell totem https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Allelopathy

And put your moveskill in the shield to make the blood magic irrelevant because skills cost no mana from walk the aether

Does this work? Would it even be good? You could have wither and blight going at the same time.

Then the whole Mind over Matter is going down the drain so no it wont work
