Will all these changes to mana reservation multiplier affect the build big time? Oh and build uses Vitality + Malevolencem and haste/vaalhaste(?)
Builds mana pool will be strangled? (obviously all builds in all clsees right)

So, this build lost some dps, but not as much as others in the grand scheme of things according to my early calculations. I'll verify when PoB gets updated. Fortify nerfs are pretty minor for this build. The mana thing is a big question, but I don't think its any worse than many other builds or insurmountable. I am going to say Malevolence and Flesh and Stone are Aura's... clarity if you think it helps with mana. Vitality is no longer very good after it got nerfed in 3.14. Running it or Clarity with arrogance is a thought. Pathing into mana nodes may be necessary. Also, enduring mana flasks are probably going to be mandatory but not as good as before... we'll just have to see. Vaal Clarity and Vaal Haste, but only for boss fights. Does increased duration affect Vaal Skills, because if so, maybe do Vaal Clarity and Vaal Haste with Inc Duration for a nice period of no mana issues and speed.

Overall, I think it survived.

Edit: PoB should be ready within 24 hours. Purely updating PoB showed a 25% reduction in DPS, but thats before reworking anything. My other build went from 10% nerf to 10% buff in DPS so there is reason to believe its not as bad as it seems.

Congratulations!

I think it’s still going to perform quite well, especially in HC settings. I’m updating the PoB and it’ll be out before league start. The only real concern based off preliminary assessment may be mana management with selfcast, but I think there’s a creative workaround somewhere.

I was contemplating between starting off with your Lightning strike build or this and decided to start with this one!!

Will you have an updated pob for the league start? :)

Thank you in advance for your replies and help!! Really appreciate all the effort you put into your build guides. <3

Yes, I’ll have an updated PoB and build guide out before league start.

Thanks!

The build has been updated. There are changes but damage will be fine. I do have concerns about Mana and that will have to be worked through. My gut is an Enduring Flask will be mandatory and you'll want to have some combination of Non-channeling skills cost -XX Mana crafts and items. That includes Elreon craft, warlord chest, and/or Watcher's eye. Edit: Replica Conquerer Efficiency works well too.

Thanks for updating. I am excited. We will find out tonight/tomorrow if this league will be fun or not.
