This has probably been asked, but I can't find any info after some extensive Googling.
How do I run both Malevolence and Discipline auras?
When I activate both,I can only cast Contagion-ED twice before I don't have enough mana.

Is there a secret to this set up, or do I just need to buff up my mana regen (or mana pool) a bit more?

I'm a newb, so sorry if this is a stupid question.

Cheers

So wait a minute. so players is using contagion over bane? Is it just for boss fights with ED? Can't be for mobs right? Because I hit bane once on mobs and they are dead.

Contagion can spread. I hit 1 mob pack and can kill as many as there is if I am fast enough and they are somewhat close enough. Maybe check how it looks when you Delve and use Contagion/ED combo.

I just don't think you should need it, cause the 'hit' of ED is not that big, so being able to spam shoot it infinitely like a regular projectile is not that valuable.. it only needs to be refreshed every few seconds. If you use the helmet then good luck getting the enchantment without paying out of your nose. You also lose the aberrant fossil craft cuz you can't craft your own helmet. And if you get EB on the tree (don't do it this way lol) then you waste valuable passives.

But yeah, if you do set up the helmet its does offer conveniences. But its screwing up so many new peoples builds and I can almost guarantee that your build would be just as well off with a bit of mana regen and the elreon ring craft instead. The benefit of the helmet, I suppose, is that it makes a transition into a Mark of the Shaper with an Elder resist ring easy, which is a pretty big damage increase. :)

It's not about spamming ED, it's about the defensive layer it provides together with MoM.

My 1st Exalt was spent on The Devouring Diadem and I used it as soon I could equip it at lvl 54. I used it with cheap 6-link 350 ES chest which was more than enough to farm for the bow, The Perfect Form, and some other gear. Utility it provides and defensive layer is excellent.

+1 to socketed skills, 20% reduced mana cost for 3 auras, 4000HP/ES every 5s, free passive notable EB and 10% chance for ES Recharge to start when skill is used. Whats not to like?
I use Desecrate in CWDT setup for steady supply of corpses that almost instantly heal me when I get hit. I dont remember when it was last time I used hp flask. So imo The Devouring Diadem might not give you same damage boost or hp/res as crafted -Chaos res helm but utility it provides is very well worth it.

Just a quick question, read myself into the PoB for this one and I'm a bit confused - why is Spreading Rot placed in that perticular spot? I only see 20 Int in radius, would we not want to trigger it with 40?
