I just wonder if its ok to use enlighten instead of golem, what do u think ?

I honestly never uses the golem, don't find it necessary and it dies way too often.

i was thinking the same, maybe to replace the golem with bloodrage?

What would you focus on next on my character? 6link is expensive af!
Doing Tier10 at the moment since I didnt find red maps yet, easy going so far :D
Did some smaller adjustments to skilltree to test.

new flasks will add a ton of dmg. you can get a ToH and sulphur flask. you shouldn't need two health flasks or a mana flask

so the correct enchant is the duration? is there a reason for that now that it's a max of 10 stacks? seems like the multi per stack and spell damage would both be better

with the duration enchant you can refund 11 points around the second duration cluster and spend them elsewhere.
the damage enchants are ok if you are building a glass cannon.

Hopefully This Post Gets Seen This Time

Going to do some weird spacing so it isn't just a one liner and gets missed like it did 10 pages ago.

For SSF SC, do you think it is better to play EO vs Crit as the gear will be harder to find?

It seems to be what most the streamers are playing to buff heralds

Thanks in advance

you can start with EO and respec later.
the crit gear is not that hard to find and BV gem itself was buffed to provide extra 100% increased crit

for those that want to do some MFing with this build I can recommend dropping mind over matter/mana nodes and the second skill effect duration cluster and getting phase acrobatics instead.
you're just incredibly limited on gearslots to get mana on
I am using increased duration in my 6 link to more than make up for the second skill effect duration cluster we lost. duration is just great for mapping

because arcane surge requires a set amount of mana to proc, if you level it higher you will have to cast orb of storms twice to get the proc instead of just once with the lower level arcane surge.

level 6 is 26 mana to proc the buff. which is one orb of storms worth of mana, if you level the arcane surge gem higher it will increase the amount of mana required to get the buff meaning you will have to cast orb of storms twice to get the buff instead of just once

im getting tired of having to cast this golem over and over he keeps dying. i think i might just link him with a cast when damage taken so its auto cast. he dies way to much lol.

Plus he sometimes leads to unpredictable boss attacks or acts as a target for chaining attacks ;)
