[edit] Equipment
- Armor - radiant and blessed armor, Minor vigor Rune, no health enhancing runes
- Weapons - Insightful Staff of Enchanting with a "Hale of Hearty"
inscription
- +5 Axe or Sword of Enchanting to get close to foes.
[edit] Usage
Before going into battle, cast and maintain Cultist's Fervor, Dark Aura, and Vigorous Spirit in that order. To get the most damage out of the build, try to stay close to the foes, but only if you want to. Cast Vampiric Swarm and Unholy Feast when 2 or more foes are in the area. Use Vampiric Gaze as your main attack. Use Strip Enchantment for health or to remove enchantment from foe.
[edit] Counters
- Enchantment removal
- Energy Denial
- Not enough life stealing to keep up with Cultists Fervor's demand
- Anti-cast hexes
- Spells that increase your health
[edit] Variants
- If you don't feel that Dark Aura is needed, take it out for Jaundiced Gaze
- Jaundiced Gaze can be added, but not recommended since it sacrifices more.
- Blood Renewal may be considered for a self heal.
- Strip Enchantment may be removed if you already have a healer on your team. Any life-stealing spell of choice can be used.
[edit] Notes
You want a low health since Cultist's Fervor sacrifices 15% Maximum health and you want to sacrifice the smallest, but not too small. Keep it in between 400- high 400's.
