Once we get that, can I get rid of this awful ring and amulet set up? (zero hp and resists)?

Having said that, I agree that this build is pretty glass cannon, even towards the end game. Its only defences are Elusive + Immortal Call + however much HP + ES you can stack up. There's 0 block, dodge, armour, etc. to rely on, so when you get hit, you get chunked hard. I definitely wish Fyregrass was a little more transparent with that. It's a well written guide, but it really doesn't point out the downsides of the build.

So, apologies if this is a newb question, but something I realized after switching over to the Storm Brand at 83. If you are using Eldritch Battery, then inspiration doesn't provide inspiration charges cause its taking the mana from the ES first? Or am I missing something here. And the same thing for arcane surge.

Ah crap, I just started on this build (A10 Kitva and 3rd Lab right now). How's it with Ultimatums? Maybe should consider tankier rerolls in the mid league, but I was hoping I could stick to one build.

Why do I loose all brands after 1-2 Brand Recalls?
I just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong :(
And for now I have to click it automaticly every time I want to do damage.

I'm at the "Enduring composure/endurance charges" point of the guide.

If someone can look at my profile and tell me what I'm doing wrong, then it would be greatly appreciated!

Edit:Have Brand Recall on left mouse button

Hey!
Ive found out that we can have 10% Frenzy Charge on Hit with elegent hubris. I wonder if it worth to change from the Militant Faith timeless jewel?

I've been wondering this too. From using Fyregrass' Corrupted Soul version of his build, the numbers actually suggest that Badge isn't as good as Ephemeral Bond (2.2m vs 1.8m per brand).

The main thing is that, at 10 power charges, Badge will give 40% more damage and 40% cast speed. Inner Conviction gives us 30% more spell damage. But you do end up losing out on 10-400 flat lightning to spells, which seems like way more than the damage 10 frenzy charge provides.

So to me, I think Ephemeral Bond is still better in terms of flat out damage. But Badge does give you a lot more zoom zoom due to the increased Elusive effectiveness. At least that's what I've concluded, but I might be missing something.
