I run a es nova sorc with obsession, I use griff, string, 2x soj, 25dr 3light amu, 4os fhr facet body, and magefists. The only issue is I run into mana issues but my character has no leakage and im hitting the 105. I’m thinking of switching it up (I know I lose a little damage) to an arachnid, frostburn, and swap an soj for a 3Maek 3laek light Opalvein. I figure with lose the dr from string the 3laek will cover the leakage, and I’m hoping the 3 maek makes an impact on my mana (my merc uses infinity). I also figure once I get a renewed crack of the heavens if I get mdr it will also eliminate any leakage. I’m just wondering people thoughts on the -7 light damage (from losing the +1 skills) for the 3maek trade off? I also plan on my renewed crack having the -10 res so I’m sure my damage will be higher in the end anyways.

All opinions welcome :thumbsup:

you're running out of mana because your build is really bad, for a number of reasons

start by using a low req infy along with an insight merc. glhf

Yeah my obsession is a +3 nova +3 lm

So I was trying to balance high high damage with half like an es but struggling. Might not be the most optimal but was trying to find a nice medium well getting to keep my obsession

a few skills won't give you damage. -55 enemy light res from self-wielding infinity will give you damage. obsession is a really bad nova weapon

Ahh fair enough was hoping to find away to make it work but yeah might just been leading me down the wrong path. Appreciate the input :thumbsup:
