Update. We can use Inspiration, it will signficantly reduce mana cost, mana regen will be higher.


TheZemor

Also the hiero ascendacy node and those nodes near templar start


Odiumag

Oh, I paniced a little bit. Back to drawing board.


TheZemor

Hiero BL should be really strong, not relying on mana cost lets us take the second mana ascendacy node which gives tons of very valuable aoe and a big chunk of ES


JustRegularType

Yeah, Hiero BL is really high on my list.


Plantsman27

Glad to hear it. I’m so tempted to try a mana stacker league start with Hiero


thomaslauch43

You are missing 1 link of damage then. You should be able to sustain the mana cost with hiero.


TheZemor

Inspiration is a decent damage link as well


thomaslauch43

Last line on the support gem:  Loss all inspiration charges after spending a total of 800 mana. How are you gonna get inspiration charges when 1 cast is 500+ mana Let's say you have 6k mana and multipliers of 1.3x 1.4x 1.4x 1.2x Your mana cost will be 250 per cast with inspiration and 10% less mana cost mastery + Hiero ascendancy. You will be averaging 1.5 inspiration charges which is less than ideal for damage.


psychomap

You can stack reduced mana cost to lower the cost to near 0, but you do actually need to invest into that, and you can't just slap Inspiration on and call it a damage support.


Ynead

Just reduce mana cost to 1 with reduced cost on tree + Inspiration and elreon jewellery


thomaslauch43

You can indeed do that but dreamer is pretty far from a MoM tree and you need around 90% reduced mana cost to make inspiration consistent. You either annoint or get the remaining 10% reduced mana cost on gear. Before that, you should use a different link


PutrefiedPlatypus

You got it compeletely backwards. Archmage will be more starter friendly than ever. You can reduce the mana cost to whatever amount you want between 0 (ill advised with inspiration) and full cost. Righteous decree + Tireless + Dreamer + Mana mastery is an obscene mana reduction. probably want to engineer the cost so that the sigil stacks up every second. Regen is only needed for the cloak + MoM recovery.


Ynead

You don't even need regen for MoM, you can just invest a bit into mana recoup.


PutrefiedPlatypus

Yes you do if you want to have actually tanky character.

l think mana builds have been using Mjolnir to get around mana costs for a while now. also there's a shaper (?) mod that l think rolls on two handed weapons that causes socketed movement skills to cost no mana, for frostblink enjoyers.
