Retired build. Say hi to 3.15 boys

No it does not ramp up like this. What I am doing wrong?

I cast Desecrate and then Cremation. Effect is that my tooltip dps is maybe doubled (but not a factor of 8 or 10) and I can not cast another cremation (because mana cost is too high). After the 4 seconds I can cast it again.

But I think that is the right way? If I would have enough mana and could cast Cremation a second time the next Immortal Call would probably kill me. I just did a few maps without indigon and it seems like my damage without is even better or at least the same.

Is the problem maybe that my mana pool is not high enough? Should I have the unreserved mana costs of the second spell cast of cremation that the indigon bonus counts? (even if I shouldn't cast it with that mana cost)

Ah yeah thats the problem, now I switched back to a 5-L (because 200 mana are missing at the moment with a 6L) and my damage is waaay higher.

Then you're over ramping.


After your first cast the mana cost of your cremation should be just below your maximum mana.



Ah you've solved the problem.

To keep improving your damage look at your passive tree to see what % reduction nodes you're missing. Also take note of what links I have for cremation and see if you're using different ones that have different multipliers.

One way of manipulating the max mana pool to be able to ramp damage close to my max mana is to use different level clarity gems to alter the reserved mana and hence the max mana pool.

Heya Sareth

Just curious on the swapped item section, i'm confused on the sire of shards staff, its not a true 6L, is it supposed to be broken up?!

Just curious cuz on your original post you said you have it 6L haha.

Thanks for the build and i'm looking to try it out hopefully :) Cheers!

Hi guy!!! Congrats for the build, and excuse my poor English!!!!

I'm doing this build that you assembled, it really is a tank and very cheap !!!!! I have some doubts:

1 - How did you solve the deficiency of dex and str?

2 - You have allocated the Lord of the Dead and Minions damage nods. Do they act on the balls generated by the VD?

3 - I saw that your character is update. Is it worthwhile to follow the tree that is on the forum or your current tree? And the gear, follow the forum or the current?

I got the first ascendancy at lv 29!!!!! Here is my character at that moment:

1. Atziri's Foible reduces the stat requirements by 25%

2. These mods only give you % damage if you have the minion nodes on the left most side of the tree.

3. The current is better end of league as gear is cheaper and easier to acquire.

Start of league the 6-L sire of shards was 6 ex, now its 2 ex or less and easy to buy.

TY guy!!!! I see in the left side about Minions, and this is my first scion build and I never used Minions before. How do I call them? It's automatic? Need some gem?

it's just something you add for extra damage if you've already gotten all of the low hanging damage nodes.

But you can also avoid picking this up if you dont need it.

Care to share lvl 71 tree ? leveling this build atm. ty in advance.
One more question: You are currently using Awakened Lightning Penetration to support Cremation, but Cremetion's damage is fire. Does Lightning Penetration assign light damage to Cremation?
