zGrundy's Notes
**Quick note: Looks like I was incorrect about being able to strictly remove the Ashes and move on with our lives. We are a couple % reserved short. In this case, I would just run a 2 passive mana reservation cluster on the end of my large or I'd spend the three points to grab the mana mastery for reservation. So definitely not "necessary" still, but would need to swap a couple passives around. At least in my case, I could also just use Malevolence (which I have the helm enchant for).
Having a great time with the build so far. Really liking the damage and the comfy defenses. Of course, being melee has its drawbacks, but the build is quite powerful regardless of that.
Here's my current POB:

Don't mind the large cluster I currently have slotted in. Somehow I've managed to not drop an 8 passive Claw/Dagger cluster yet, but that's ultimately what I'd be looking for in this slot.
