Very fun so far-- thanks :)

Few questions:

1. Why do you go the mana route from Scion when in PoB you only have Anger reserving 50%? This leaves a pool of 500ish mana. I'm inclined to go the resist route, and make up the two points elsewhere-- can anyone see why this wouldn't be viable?

2. Do you take the Sanctity node just for the armour % and +10 to Strength and Intelligence? Because the Energy Shield is useless with Blood Rage and the regen doesn't matter with Vaal Pact. I feel like I could make up the attributes and armour easily, is there is another purpose I am missing?

3. Why do you not take the life leech nodes right under Vaal Pact? I feel that I would rather use the 3 points there then have to make it up in multiple pieces of gear/Warlord's/super pricey Watcher's eye. It also negates the Bosses/mobs that are hexproof.

Thanks to anyone who replies :D

I have a jewel that has
-Adds # to # fire damage to attacks
-Adds # to # fire damage with wands attacks

Am i correct in assuming this doesnt help the build at all since VD is a spell?

since we have so man jewel slots with the acuity tree, is it better to scale flat damage with abyss jewels or get normal jewels? seems like scaling flat damage since our damage is in our 3 links would be better

So I'm a little puzzled right now. I am currently leveling this build, being at 65 at the moment. Now the part puzzles me is that I imported my character into PoB to look at my DPS and it says my damage is 18k fully buffed. 18k compared to your 2mil. I mean, I am still leveling shit up but still, having not even 1% of your DPS seems iffy to me.

I am definitely prioritizing Life and resists (capped resists and close to 4k hp) but even so, that number looks ridiculously low to me.

So whats going on?

1. you can go resist route if you want, you lose some passives but will make gearing a bit easier

2. that node is a mistake, feel free to remove it if you have vaal pact

3. those nodes are attack leech and wont help since we deal spell damage
