Level 79 Hybrid Blight of Contagion Trickster^3.26

Notes

=======ACT 1========

Look for MS boots in town & use 2 wands.
Look for BBG & BBB on anything in town before going to Coast. If no BBR or BBB then BB 2 link minimum.

Take Blight  from Tarkleigh after killing Hillock, link it to Arcane Surge. Leave Arcane Surge at Level 1.

>>>>Please make sure you have 2 mana flasks before Brutis and or you might have a bad time with mana<<<<

>>Note on Blight usage<<
It has a bit of range so you can cast it without being in melee range of mobs, cast some stacks and keep moving then repeat in a stutter step pattern.
A1 is most painful for this build but gets much smoother afterwards.

Level 4
After Mud Flats is over and you are in The Submerged Passage, waypoint back to The Coast waypoint and go get the medicine chest from Tidal Island.

Take Contagion from the Egg quest reward and buy Arcane Surge from Nessa. Leave Arcane Surge at Level 1.
Take Frostblink. Keep Arcane Surge at Level 1 and link it to Frostblink.
Take Elemental Proliferation and link it to Rolling Magma and Holy Flame Totem. Prioritize Rolling Magma first.

Use Flame Wall then cast Rolling Magma towards enemies, make sure it goes through the Flame Wall to gain its bonus damage. 
Use Holy Flame Totem on any Rare mobs and on Bosses, no need to cast it on anything else.

~Level 8-9

Look for the Chemist's Strongbox hidden behind the wall in Upper Prison, if you're lucky you'll get another Quicksilver flask.

Killing Brutus: Stutter step and just cast Blight. Should be able to do it with one full Mana flask, feel free to equip a second if mana is an issue.

In town: Take Flame Dash and swap Frostblink with it if you prefer it but, Frostblink will be faster. Take Void Manipulation from Nessa as reward
and link it to Blight and Infused Channeling if you have a BBG item.

Level 12
Take Essence Drain once you hit level 12 and reach Merevil's Cavern and buy 2 Efficacy Support if you can afford it, 1 if not. Link Efficacy Support to Essence Drain and Contagion, along with 2 more 
Void Manipulation if you can afford them and have enough BBG gear. Check vendors!

Buy Withering Step from Nessa. 

Use Withering Step to apply Withered to bosses making them substantually faster.


Act 2

BANDITS: Kill Alira. The resistance is OP for leaguestart and is easy to respec later in maps.

Act 3

Start looking for:
BBBG for Essence Drain - Efficacy - Controlled Destruction - Void Manipulation and Blight - Infused Channeling - Efficacy - Void Manipulation.
Leave Contagion 2 or 3 link since mana starts to become more of an issue.

In Lab, make sure to use Blue gem in Divine Font for a chance at self found Blight of Contagion. Otherwise, set a live trade search for it and buy it asap and replace your normal Blight with it. You can just use Essence Drain for additional boss ST then.

Level 24
Take Malevolence from the quest reward. Buy Despair from the vendor.

Go to the Library and do the quest for Siosa

From Siosa buy: Buy Grace and Intensify. Start leveling them and use Grace over Malevolence if you want to be tankier. 
Once you have Charisma & 8% Increased Mana Reservation Efficiency you can use Grace and Malevolence.
You can also opt to use Purity of Elements instead to have 0 problems with being tanky. Pick whichever 2 50% auras you like the most.

Act 4

Do lab now if you haven't, it should be ez mode.

Take Chaos Golem and Increased Area of Effect Support for Contagion


Act 5-10

Keep following the skill trees for each act.
