Enki's Arc Witch Memorial Page
" You're only supposed to run Warlord's Mark and Enfeeble (with Blasphemy). Clarity is absolutely not needed, and Herald of Thunder, while useful, takes our mana to dangerously low levels, to the point where you run out of mana casting Arc, and also making Mind over Matter absolutely worthless. My advice: ditch Clarity/HoT, and run WM and Enfeeble only. |

Alright il try doing that :D,also i gotta ask is it possible with this build to go for Eldritch Battery???because it seems like it would help alot to me xD,also what do you use for life leech? Last edited by Bakkkiii#4067 on Dec 18, 2016, 2:22:33 PM

" For life leech, Warlord's Mark usually does the trick. In maps with problematic mods, use the Life Leech support gem. I don't think Eldritch Battery really has a place in this build, but there are people here that are much more qualified than me to answer that question.

I'm get used to use orb of storms to gather power charges now, but there is something that I'm having troubles.
This build is absolutely madness to clear out maps, but I can't kill map bosses. I'm just opening a TP and relog in my Juggernaut to kill them, because I always die in the process. I'm not sure if I'm doing it right, but I usually cast decoy totem, frost bomb, activate vaal haste and try to burst the boss out, but the totem will die before and I will be one shoted. I'm doing something very wrong or I just have to live with it? |

" Which map tiers? |

Huge thanks to maykay for taking care of the thread while i'm busy!
@Dracuul79: That's weird, shouldn't happen. Can you link your piece of gear with the CwDt golem setup please? @daynne19988: I assume you mean Pledge of Hands. Gem Setup is Arc - Cold Penetration - Inc Crit Strikes - Inc Crit Damage - Added Lightning Damage/Life Leech - Empower. @Bakkkiii: Eldritch Battery would require a completely different setup. You'd have to give up Lightning Coil and probably wear a shield to get enough Energy Shield. Next issue is how to sustain the energy shield - the inherent recharge is not reliable and mana leech won't cover energy shield. ONe option is to use Zealot's Oath together with Stone Golem and some life regen passives, but can't use Vaal Pact with this method which makes reflect rares almost certain death unless you have expensive Atziri's Acuity gloves, and can't reliably run any reduced/no regeneration maps. Second option is Ghost Reaver, which would be more reliable but leaves you without any life leech - and that's just inacceptable. Both ways also have the downsive that you can't pot back the MoM-buffer. As you can see, the downsides won't outweigh the little gain you might get out of this. If you want a huge MoM-buffer on a budget, i can recommend check out the staff version using Pledge of Hands. @ViDmEx: Your gear is fine, but i can see you're still missing two major life clusters and Vaal Pact, and have a really bad flask setup. I'd recommend, spec out of the shadow power charge and Arcane Potency for now and get VP and Discpline and Training, then Cruel Preparation and fill out both life clusters before getting back to more DPS. Even more important is to fix the flask setup. Looking at your gear, you should be able to roll proper flasks and afford a Vessel of Vinktar. All these changes, and a higher level Decoy Totem that will come with time should fix your problems. twitch.tv/enkivt

Ok so i bought 2 daggers that boosted my crit on arc from 24% to 40% and im happy as it is now,criting quite often,but my main concern is still mana and life regen/leech...Since im having MoM it takes even more mana from me that i wanted when i get attacked :D...And i know that for hp leech i could use life leech gem but i got armor with 5L blue sockets and last socket is red >.> not linked to other 5 soo i cant use life leech xD

I have a question about the flasks in the guide...
I've been gathering the bases and moving in the suggested direction. At present I have: Seething divine life flask of staunching (goal: of heat) Surgeon's hallowed hybrid flask of gluttony (goal: of warding) Experimenter's basalt flask of heat (goal: of staunching) Experiment's quicksilver flask of reflexes (goal: of grounding) Ample granite flask of dousing (goal: Vessel of Vinktar) My question: is there a way (other than an orb of alteration) to change flask suffixes to what you want? Because rolling with orbs of alteration is going to take hundreds of them, if not thousands. Or is that the point? Do you roll something close, like I have, and then work in the background on something perfect? Or is it just simpler to shop for exactly what you want (though I tried that and there weren't any of what I was looking for for sale on poe goods)? |

" Thank you for the answer! I've bought the proper flasks now and changed some passive points. I have not tried to play yet, but I think that the damage problem will persist:P I've played this guide some seasons ago (2.1 maybe?). I remember that I used vaal storm call in that time, but wasn't really good anyway hehe. |

CWDT and duo golems is also not working for me. I`m using lvl 17 CWDT and lvl 1 ice and lvl 7 lightning golems and I always have upto 1 golem at a time (the lightning one).
Similar as @Dracuul79 I never get to see the Ice golem. |
