You can support spells with life leech gem, I don't think there is any other way, maybe some unique item I haven't seen yet.

Can anyone fill me in on what they're referring to as the 'barter mechanic'? I've never seen that mentioned anywhere before and have been completely oblivious to what it is so far.

There is no gold in the game. In place of gold, there's items that have uses (such as re-rolling a mod on an item, adding a mod to an item, changing the colours of the sockets, etc.) that people trade with instead.

they mean the only way to trade or acquire items outside of farming yourself is to barter with players. You have to use trade chat, local chat etc., and actively participate in bartering. You make offers, they make offers, agreements need to be met and the items are traded. There is no central auction house or anything.

Does Ice Crit Witch with CI + Ghostreave need Vaal's pact? Or is the hex master and whispers of doom better? I'm really stuck on my build.

I want to be able to utilize Blood Rage AND Righteous Fire at the same time, since Chaos Inoculation basically gives you both for free.

I really really hate how you are trading and you get DC'd, and then you lose the person you were talking to. Messed up 3-4 important deals already

righteous fire still drops you to 1 hp (after burning your es) and blood rage does very little for a caster - so your plan doesnt exactly work out.

the only reason for you to get vaal pact is to survive elemental reflect mobs more comfortably - i personally dont like it though.
the skill is much more important for melee builds that cant really avoid getting hit.

hex master+whispers of doom on the other hand is extremely effective and versatile - enfeeble, temporal chains, frostbite, elemental weakness and critical weakness are all curses you benefit from greatly, and using two (or more) at the same time is crazy effective.

I forgot to mention I am going for the inner effect node (+30% effect of buff on you), so blood rage would give me 3 frenzy charges (15% cast speed) but with the +30% buff effect, would give me around 20% cast speed basically for free since I have CI and no life costs. Righteous fire with CI basically gives me free +spell % damage but no regen on my ES shield. So I would need to life steal it back with Ghost Reave. At last thats my train of thought right now.

Which build would be better for PvP? Curse or Vaal's Pact?

Inner force doesn't work on charges.
Also I wouldn't recommend taking CI unless you already have godly ES gear lying around. In its current form CI taken carelessly will leave you very fragile.
Same applies to Vaal Pact tbh, it is a lategame keystone.

yo, been playing as much as I can between school and what not.
game is definitely a fun time, hope it lasts for me tho

any tips for a lvl 20 duelist?

i think i have a decent build going so not to worried bout that.
more like :
what skills should i have?
what stats on gear should i go for? (if im going for the evasion = armor thing, does that mean evasion might as well = armor?)
im focusing on dual wielding atm

No life, no movespeed, no 4L.. these boots really aren't worth much imo.

And I don't think trading in this thread is gonna do much good.

Downloaded today. Played for a while with Shadow, but will turn my full attention to it later. Seems like an evolution from Diablo 2, but do not know yet.

Inner Force does work for rigteous fire but I believe you can't use it in combination with CI. I think there is a mistake in wiki.

Oh wow, so my whole build is completely ruined! hahaha, back to the drawing board

How do you know Righteous doesn't work with CI?

Well, I don't exactly know since I never checked myself, however when in doubt it is safe to trust the skill description. I have never heard of anybody running this setup and it is just common sense that if it worked then this combo would be just too ridiculous :p.
