Shade's Circle Mage Update

Hello everyone, just did some cleaning up and changes to the Circle Mage build. Back to easy pushing into the 90s of Champs with no issues except a couple bosses are getting too punishing. However I am running very dry on better gear, so I blame bad luck for that. With this new setup I am critting 20k~ multiplied by over 5 ticks of it hitting a second. It is going good and fun. I am considering a couple things, which is dropping Light-bringer for Aether jump, I am just worried the damage will be too low. I guess it is possible to make a build for lower clearing for gear hunting where the extra damage just is not even relevant? Anyways, it improves day by day. Hoping to get back to champ 100s ranges by the end of the week.

Enjoy!

Do keep in mind when I was lower level I was using Annihilation for a good while but eventually it fell off in terms of not only damage but time as it was replaced with Infinity Blades. I really do not like Infinity Blades in this but currently it is the only way for me to spend Rage :/

Thank Ill give it a go with Annihiliation tonight.
But I'm a bit confused on how Infiniy Blades help you spend Rage?

Basically, the mod on Infinity blades enables you to use Warrior skills for a short time after hitting an enemy with them. THis allows you to use Bleeding Edge, using it until your rage bar is gone and then continuing on. This will not only fill your Willpower back up but make spinning axes of massive crits that also apply rend, which if you get 5 stacks of that gives another 25% overall damage increase.

Hi, I took your build as basic, and made some small changes. I am currently lvl 60, with similiar DMG Numbers like your last video. Around 50% Crit and so on...

My biggest problems are survivability in Boss fights at lvl 65+. I am currently at 32k Life and some ress: 30% resistance on everything atleast. How do you survive those fights, i still need to kite and stuff. Any defensive Nodes you can recommend? Thanks

Let me start by saying I am enjoying this build alot. It reminds me of an Aether Knight from D&D. I made a few changes like life leech on gear, as well as early levels 2-27 i used a tank summon. Other than that it's very easy to mow down mobs. Even the first boss that everyone was complaining about got deleted. Thanks for taking the time to do this.
