Phrecia 2.7 League Start | Spark Energy Blade Scavenger

CAMPAIGN AND EARLY LEVELING ACT 1 You want to use two scepters. Stats you want: Spell damage Any flat damage to spells Cast Speed Plus to lightning gems You also want to find a 3-link of BBG Pick up Spark and you will level with that throughout. Gems you want by the end of ACT 1: Spark -> Pierce -> Added Lightning Flame Dash -> Arcane Surge (Keep at level 1) Vitality - Clarity - Precision -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ACT 2 You will want to prioritize getting Dark Arts and the mastery for a 60% damage boost. This will require you having two different weapon types equipped, so I recommend going for a Rune Dagger and Scepter combo. The same stats apply here. Pick up Herald of Thunder, Blood Rage, Tempest Shield and Wall of Force. I recommend taking off Precision for now to run Herald of Thunder. Gem Setup at the end of ACT 2: Spark -> Pierce -> Added Lightning Flame Dash -> Arcane Surge (Keep at level 1) Vitality - Clarity - Precision (Inactive) Herald of Thunder - Tempest Shield Wall of Force Blood Rage -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ACT 3 Focus on upgrading weapons when possible. You ideally will have weapons with flat lightning damage to spells at this point. Keep an eye out for Essence of Woe and Essence of Torment for decent crafting options. At this point you will switch out Herald of Thunder for either Zealotry or Discipline, but you should buy both. You will also be buying Energy Blade, however you wont be using it just yet we just want to start leveling it. New gems: Zealotry, Discipline, Conductivity, Energy Blade Gem Setup for the end of ACT 3: Spark -> Pierce -> Added Lightning -> Added Cold Flame Dash (Cap at about level 7 or 8, whichever is enough to proc with each cast) -> Arcane Surge (Keep at level 1) Vitality - Clarity - Precision (Inactive) Zealotry - Energy Blade (Inactive) - Tempest Shield Conductivity - Wall of Force Blood Rage - Discipline If you can, pickup some Haste gems to have for later. We will need to corrupt them for Vaal Haste. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ACT 4 & 5 The gems should be mostly set at this point. Make sure resists are capped, and you have around 1.3k combined life and ES. I like to do my first lab once I get the Crystal Veins waypoint. Unfortunately its only 2 passive points for the first one. New gems in ACT 4: Increased AOE, Summon Stone Golem, Sigil of Power, and Minion Life Gem Setup for the end of ACT 5: Spark -> Pierce -> Added Lightning -> Added Cold Flame Dash (Cap at about level 7 or 8, whichever is enough to proc with each cast) -> Arcane Surge (Keep at level 1) - Summon Stone Golem -> Minion Life Vitality - Clarity - Precision (Inactive) Zealotry - Energy Blade (Inactive) - Tempest Shield (Inactive) Conductivity - Wall of Force - Sigil of Power - Increased AOE Blood Rage - Discipline - Vaal Haste -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ACT 6-10 After you get your second lab done, you can switch over to low life if you are comfortable with your defenses. If you dont want to go low life, you can take cloak of flame, or blunderbore until you can handle it. When you are ready to switch, add Arrogance to Vitality, Clarity and Precision and make sure to take Pain Attunement. Around the same time, you should have added Power charges and pierce so you can switch up the links for Spark. Spark -> Added Lightning -> Increased Critical Strikes -> Increased Critical Damage Once you hit Merciless Lab, this build is fully online. You can swap one of your scepters for a Shield and again swap the links for Spark to the final version. Also dont forget to activate Energy Blade! Spark -> Spellblade -> Increased Critical Strikes -> Increased Critical Damage -> Inspiration
