[0.3] Mana Stacker Molten Blast Ritualist

Weapon

On our Weapon we want to use a Flanged Mace, as it is the fastest base Attack Speed Mace.

We want the same Suffixes on all our Maces:

• Onslaught on Kill
• Attack Speed (very important)
• +4 to Level of Attack Skills NOT +X to Level of Melee Skills, as Molten Blast is not a Melee Skill.

In terms of Prefixes we can be more flexible. A pure elemental mace is the highest DPS, but a wide array of configurations can make for a good mace. This is roughly the prefix priority:

1. Lightning Damage
2. Elemental Damage with Attacks
3. Fire Damage
4. Cold Damage
5. % Phys
6. % Phys + Accuracy / Accuracy
7. Phys Damage

When starting, we can use Olrovasara as it's cheap.

On our Sockets we want to use Saqawal's Rune of the Sky > Soul Core of Citaqualotl

Offhand

We use Sacred Flame to increase our damage, help fix our Resistances and give us Spirit for Trinity.

The ideal Corruption would increase the Extra Fire Damage further.

Early on, we use Lycosidae instead because Resolute Technique is too far away.

We want an additional socket Corruption on it.

Gloves

Hand of Wisdom and Action give incredible damage when Stat stacking.

The ideal Corruption increases the 1-10 Added Lightning to 1-12 but a second Socket is also a good option.

Socket Accuracy% Runes.

Boots

As a baseline we will use Boots with EV/ES, Mana and Deflect/Rarity/Resistances.

If we feel we are tanky enough we can move on to Trampletoe with 2 Sockets and Resistances Runes.

Belt

Ingenuity is used to increase the value of our Rings, which are already boosted by Mystic Attunement.

Headhunter is another, more expensive, alternative.

Rings

Ideally, we want 1 Dream Fragments to make us Chill and Freeze immune and 2 Breach Rings with the following Affixes:

• Lightning Damage to Attacks > Accuracy/Fire/Cold/Phys Damage to Attacks or Rarity
• Mana
• Mana %
• Mana Regeneration

The last 2 Suffixes can be used on whatever you need to complete your build (Rarity, Attributes, Elemental Resistance), as long as one of your rings has Mana Leech on it.

The possibility of using 3 Breach Ring exists and will lead to more damage, but further testing is needed. I'm not sure if we can use Thawing Charm + Mind Phylacteries to solve Freeze Immunity, as we are a Mana Stacker and Mind Phylacteries siphons our Mana. Also, we would not be Chill Immune and would have to swap 4 points on our Passive Tree if we wanted to become Immune.

Amulet

We use Astramentis with Pure Power to further potentiate our stat stacking.

Charms

If we don't have a Heart of the Well with Recover Mana% on Charm Usage then we honestly shouldn't be using any Charms.

If we do, we can use Golden Charms with Recover 300 Mana on usage and % Chance to get a Charge on Kill.

Flasks

We want a Mana Flask with 30% Instant Recovery and Increased Charges.
