I added +100 mana on melee attack and mana leech on weapon, added as much regenerate mana, mana on kill, mana on strike, energy% and flat energy as I could and still, I run out of mana after just a few attacks at clvl 111. If this combo was supposed to actually work in conjunction, it does not and is utter trash. This is very unfortunate as the versatility of 2.0 seems to be broken, i.e. you can only focus on your singular tree and trying different combos does not work. This is boring, unintuitive and uninventive. I hope the devs modify this in some way, like allow have GT receive mana on attack when combined with moonbeam or something. Such a shame this build is trash because it has such potential.
I'm pretty sure it's not supposed to work like that (moonbeam+glacial torrent).. alternative moonbeam scaling with cold pierce was obviously made if anyone wanna try to make elemental sorc built around crystal sword
I get you, but there but there is no reason that combo can't work if the devs implement what I'm suggesting. It's a fun build and a throwback to the classic zealdin. Not even remotely op, takes awhile to clear stages, yet is satisfying... If you have enough mana. If not, it's full of frustration. The added 20% life and cold pierce from moonbeam are a natural fit to GT, and ALL cold sorc are using their first cold skill (not GT) or an o-skill for their main damage so there is literally no reason for GTs mama costs to be so high, none. This potential build is only ruined by the overly high mana costs for a melee based skill/sub class.
