[2.5] Milky's Kitava Elemental Slayer - Wildstrike, Static Strike and more

Yes it does, especially berserker since it also has included leech.

To the league starter stuff:

Sure it can work, but i think it really shines with the gear (like enchant and kitavas).
Otherwise just level with sunder/earthquake/whatever until you feel comfortable to switch, the skilltree is pretty generic for most melee skills

How can you manage the mana? Do you have any kind of mana leech?

I'm trying the build right now and it feels like I need the nodes with mana leech in the duelist zone

nowadays, yes since they changed the conversiom to 100%

Looking to play a similar build but I have a question for you. Why wouldn't you use elemental focus as your sixth link? And are you running a 5l because the mana cost would be too much on a 6l or just because you can't afford a 6l?

and i just had no fusing luck

Hi Milky, Necroing your thread for an update on my variant on build for 3.0.

Gear


Rings are fairly nice - Left hand one I exalted the stats, not ideal but it does free up the amulet socket so I can use anything in there. Tempted to uncraft and slam the final prefix....
The rare amulet is just a placeholder, Mainly using a Bisco anyway.

Boots and belt were out of stash so could be improved. Gloves pretty good for 1ex I thought.




Build is pretty fun - With in aoe linked the melee hit covers almost half the screen. Shame you actually have to hit something though!
Concentrated on attack speed for jewels so leap slam is pretty nice too.

Problem is single target, although we got a fairly nice buff with the change to damage on full life, so can use an extra more multiplier that affects all parts of the skill, boss HP got a big buff too, and without penetration, anything with resists takes a while to kill.
Balancing for wise oak with our unique flasks is tricky too. Maybe can do if I use a vinktar as well, so its up when all flasks are up.
Could get a penetration if not killed recently enchant on boots, but problem is we WANT to kill recently for our buffs.


But I've basically decided I need an alternate skill for tanky stuff. Static strike probably would work, but molten is probably best. Can swap in threshold jewels for guardians/shaper if I need, maybe even swap helms for enchant.
Just linked a disfavour for swap - bit of a shame now though, gone from an interesting different build to something a lot more cookie cutter. I'll probably even have to get a Xoph's Blood!

If I do that i'll probably take lava lash (It's not horrible even for wildstrike) and point blank.
