Edit: For reference, this is where I'm currently at,: + Show Spoiler + and this is my "short-term" plan: + Show Spoiler + I am currently using Freezing Pulse as main skill but I still have a lot of experimenting to do on what gem combinations to use while my items are currently far from where I would like them to have at this point of the game. This was my first character so after dying to often in Act 2 Cruel I decided to stop and make a new shadow and ranger which are both at around the same level (42-45) but seem to be doing a lot better. I still want to do most of the research myself but a little advice would be appreciated. | ||

I still want to do most of the research myself but a little advice would be appreciated. Sadly, the key to making witches survive is using minions. Before, you used to be able to get away with stacking ES because you could get MUCH more ES than hp. Now you can still get more ES, but it's far more in line with max hp people get on tanky chars. ES is basically all round inferior to hp for survivability due to the mechanics of stun and elemental ailments. The end result is that to be survivable as witch is to not get hit much, thus use minions (and maybe totem) to tank for you while you cast your spells. I'm using a cold witch with a similar build to yours, and refusing to use minions because I find them dull. But I fully expect that I would be completely unable to level by halfway through merciless due to dying so often (well i guess i could find a party to tank for me), at which stage I will have to use minions out of necessity too. | ||

Ground slam is the least annoying of these because it has some range, and the shield allows you to play recklessly to kill faster.I appreciate all the effort you put into this post, but like I said I'm not looking for a boring ass tank and slowly tire stuff out kind of set up. I'm looking for a tank that is equally as potent in his damage, one you have to use some tactics with but it rewards you with a lot of versatility. Some examples of this are EQ Warrior, and SWTOR Juggernaut with Rage spec, but those aren't the same type of game I know. Otherwise, I'd suggest an Ethereal Knife build, with any class really. They seem overpowered at the moment, and the only real risk is killing yourself on reflect damage. Bows are also very easy to build for and play, and are not that reliant on gear.

At the end, he said he'd try to sell it again later for a higher price instead, and I told him to kindly go fuck himself. Lots of short-sighted scum around.Hmm, that's a little shady.. There is a chest I was going after that got reposted as a 1 hour bid, I was the last bid posted but it was sold 12 minutes later for more? The thread was started 59 minutes before my post which is pretty safe to assume the 1 hour bid time ends 1 hour after the post was made, not when his edit was made. *sigh* it was the perfect opportunity to get that chest and I probably should have gotten it but oh well. I have one 5L selling for a rising price. | ||

Imlvling a build identical to lifeleech but plan on having a skelly fast cast spell totem instead of investing into minions. Im also running an ek shadow on bc. Seems like a simple build so Im considering using him for farming for the gear I would need for my witch. They seem pretty tanky I'm at 1333 at lvl37 1.3k es at 37? do you have 100% increased ES on every piece of gear or something? | ||
