How can you deal with the mana issues when using Ice Crash? I'm in a 5L, and trying to run Hatred and Herald, but with only 90 unreserved mana, it's rough when Ice Crash costs 32 to cast. With the changes to leech, I'm not sure what all to do. In packs it's fine, it's on bosses that it really hits me. With the cap being reduced in 2.0, is it even possible to sustain single-target anymore? I find I have to turn off Herald in boss fights, since popping a mana flask just puts me straight back to full, making me need to use one every 3 or so casts. I did pick up Revelry, but once again, that's not really a huge help on boss fights. How have you guys been dealing with this?	Posté par dbush2765#3116 le 11 juil. 2015 18:14:56 Citer ce post
" l3lueEyes a écrit : Thank you for the work. Your build is what I have been looking for. However, may I ask if the mod critical chance in the 1h mace you posted is necessary since we will pick Resoluted Technique which mentions "Never deal critical strikes" ? That was only an example of a high phys DPS mace, the crit is irrelevant. 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995 Ice Crash Crit Staff AKA "The Shaterring Karui": https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1289037 Tanky Block+AR+EV Ranger Crit Reave Dagger/Claw: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1301888	Posté par ComradeSerge#4604 le 11 juil. 2015 18:42:20 Citer ce post

Warlord's mark should solve your mana problems. 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995 Ice Crash Crit Staff AKA "The Shaterring Karui": https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1289037 Tanky Block+AR+EV Ranger Crit Reave Dagger/Claw: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1301888	Posté par ComradeSerge#4604 le 11 juil. 2015 18:43:39 Citer ce post
How is it doing in 2.0? I've been looking for a build like this for a long time, and want to use ice crash. Was just wondering if you've leveled it up any in the new leagues?	Posté par Gankker#6993 le 12 juil. 2015 09:40:41 Citer ce post
I've been playing this build in the new softcore league, it seems to be doing pretty well. The only things that concern me right now are damage and mana. I'm just starting off merciless and i feel my AoE damage with ice crash 4 link is slightly low, as for mana i can't sustain it single target with warlords mark so i just use 3 link static strike which seems really slow for killing bosses. I find a lot of the time i will switch to a 2h i found to just try and dps faster on some of them. Will damage pick up the further i get in the build and more gear i get or will i just try to tank long enough to kill bosses eventually?	Posté par Zuleran#3647 le 12 juil. 2015 12:34:04 Citer ce post
Dmg rises as you level and get better gear, ofc :) 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995 Ice Crash Crit Staff AKA "The Shaterring Karui": https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1289037 Tanky Block+AR+EV Ranger Crit Reave Dagger/Claw: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1301888	Posté par ComradeSerge#4604 le 12 juil. 2015 14:44:25 Citer ce post
Also handy to have a good single target skill on a 3L or 4L as you level, and before you need all the tankiness. I ran Doublestrike/Multistrike/MPD on my self-found Warbands character until about halfway through Merciless. It replaced the Blood Magic/Enduring Cry/Blood Rage 3L, and it was very very handy. Stuck with it until I finally got all my sockets, links and colors sorted out in level 60+ gear and went back to the build guide. I Keep all three gems in a good spare shield to level though, in case I find myself needing good single target DPS, once again swapping out BM/EC/BR on my primary shield.

Which skill do you think is functioning best with the build so far between the 3 ice crash/infernal blow/static strike? I've been mainly testing between ice crash and static strike but i'm not sure which one i like best.	Posté par Zuleran#3647 le 12 juil. 2015 17:47:44 Citer ce post
I prefer Ice Crash, but Static Strike is ok too. If you like that more, use that :) 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995 Ice Crash Crit Staff AKA "The Shaterring Karui": https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1289037 Tanky Block+AR+EV Ranger Crit Reave Dagger/Claw: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1301888	Posté par ComradeSerge#4604 le 12 juil. 2015 19:30:27 Citer ce post
