Upgraded my first ring and also my gloves. Still looking for a better ring for the Essense Worm. But if I replace my essense worm ring, does this means i will socket my Malevolence gem into my Diadem? If so, I wouldnt be able to insert the current 4 linked gems into my helmet.
Anyhow, slightly improved on damage as well as life! Once Essense worm is replace, should have 4.9-5K HP!

Yes aura's like Zelatory/Malevolence/Grace/Discipline/Haste/etc can go in to your Diadem with less reservation to your mana pool, then if you take sovereignty on the tree you should be able to run 2 aura's comfortably, I run 3 as I have a lvl 3 Enlighten. There are few other nodes on tree to get upto 4 aura's running with the Diadem, I think Jolo's char is setup this way.

Does this mean that we will be switching to wand setup once we have the diadem so that we can free up the 4 link used for the shield charge so that we can use the bane 4-link setup?

Not sure I follow your question. Are you asking how to get 3-4 blues in a 4-link for Bane if they're all Dex items?

To keep your current gem set-up, you could certainly buy a set of ES gloves or boots to hold the Bane 4L. The other option is to go off color in any of your current 4L ES gear. Using Vorici (Jeweler's Orbs) for this in the bench is, on average, quite a bit faster and cheaper than Chromis. Depending on luck and whether you want 3 or 4 blues, it should take less than 5 minutes and cost somewhere between 20 and 200 Jeweler's. That's 2 to 20c equivalent, so might be cheaper than a new piece of gear at this point in the league. (If you use Chromis it will likely take several thousand (orbs and clicks...enough to give you carpal tunnel.)

Whether to keep Shield Charge is a really personal thing. I like Phase Run so I use that on pretty much all my toons. Then you can use Flame Dash to get in and Phase Run to get out. Abyssal gems that give a chance for phasing on kill are also quite cheap at this point and another nice defensive boost. 8% total chance, which you can get on one gem, will give you a high probability to trigger phasing for 4 seconds with every pack you kill. You can use this as another way to move from pack to pack, or to get out quickly if you get surprised.

As I've played more, I find it really helps to use similar movement and utility flask set-ups/habits on every character. (I die a lot less often...) There are a ton of options, which means flexibility. But too many different options also means more likelihood of hitting the wrong key in an oh shit moment. Getting used to something that works and sticking with it is important at my age. :-)

If you're more focused on max damage, I haven't compared mace/dagger to wand. I think a wand is more in this build, but no idea what % difference with comparable cost gear. Upgrading the Cerberus Limb to a good rare is probably the single quickest thing you could do at this point, regardless of whether you switch to a wand.
