Eternal life - issue

You have to strip before you drink from the well, you foolish undead!
This has me imagining Witch bathing naked in a well in the middle of town, thanks XD

who are we kidding, she'd 100% do that


But yeah it was my understanding that the Eternal Life node is generally used to utilize all the "low life" effects you can get.


Yeah the Witch personality is pretty funny I like it,

& yeah that's a good point i'm probably using it for the wrong reason.

I will try CI soon like you mentioned and see if it's good vs the abyss green ice green flamethrower abomination.


You'll be immune to chaos damage but not the cold.

If taking CI, dont forget you absolutely need to take the nodes that give Stun and elemental ailment threshold based on percent of ES instead of life, or you will be frozen/on fire/stunned with every single small hit =)

There is 5 nodes near CI, i never used CI but i always take thoose on my monks. I forgot the name but they're right in front of CI node.


yeah I was just wondering about stun threshold because it says "your base stun threshold is equal to your maximum life"

It's no problem because I already filled that node you mentioned but switching to CI might lower stun threshold, not by a lot though my ES is greater than my life

You can also take Asceticism near the witch start. Since you'll have 1 life it will be very usefull with no penalty.

Yeah saw that one too, that will be my next priority.

I'm not going to lie, Chaos Witch feels really strong, in Breach and in Ritual.
She devours everything
There is better way - just acquire helmet Visage of Ayah, put it on, drink to restore life, then put your usual helmet back.

But as other rightfully pointed out the main strength of the Lich with Life Eternal is ability to go into low life state, and benefit from it.
ah very clever, that's the best alternative

yeah i'm still optimizing my items and build, but not getting bled out in endgame gave it enough value for me x)

If my health gets low under my energy shield, there is no way for me to regenerate, even while in my hideout.

What I do is refund the ascension passive point, use life flask, then apply the passive again.

Is there a better way?


There is unique helm called "Visage of Ayah" it gives you Eldritch Battery keystone, which removes all your energy shield --> then you can use well or drink life flask --> after that re-equip your normal helm.
