Burning too much mana with archmage switched on, because I don't have the DPS I have to really spam attacks and doing that leads to being on the edge of suicide on anything with constant action. I can manage tier 3 maps fine, but the 6s and 7s where I'd be making decent progress gaining XP for levelling to get more passives - not happening, lost all my maps, stalled out. Feels like it needs huge investment in both ES and mana regen, which is fine when you're at the level he's at with so much to play with on the passives tree and have just the right piece in every slot, but I can't make it work as something to build with.
It looks like something that's easier to switch to when you've already made it rather than something I could grow with at my level/with what I've got... and I can't improve either of those if I can't survive :/ Got about 80 exalts and 1 divine left, I could spend those on improving my stuff again knowing what I do now, but.... eh. Trading.
I should have just looked for a simple and sustainable build that's easy to put together and maintain when what I did myself hit a wall, but it's hard to know who makes that kind of content when all the clicks come form these look at me deleting everything things. I do like that guy's videos though, I can't help picturing Ethan Phillips' Neelix character being the one narrating and half expect him to offer me some space donkey gonad broth at any moment.
