Path of Exile EB Ethereal Knives Shadow Build

Path of Exile Eldritch Battery Ethereal Knives Shadow Build by Byrr

i get a lot of messages asking for my build so here it is.

I am an Ethereal Knife caster. EK is a great aoe spell but weak on single target dps. To compensate, i use 2 bear trap gems which give me 6 traps in total, or a lot of burst to a single target. I curse people with Projectile Weakness which basically gives me another 30% damage. I plan on running 5 auras, blood magiced Grace and Discipline, as well as Clarity, Determination and Hatred and will have a spell totem of some kind to help with single target damage, im not sure what this is yet.

This is up to mid 30s, you should be able to get this before leaving normal. It has a lot of life and I leveled using a LMP'd Freezing Pulse.

Spoiler

Around this point i would change to Eldritch Battery, you basically just need to make sure you have a leveled clarity, discipline and inner force before you do it. it will be hard on your mana still so you'll have to compensate with mana flasks as well.

Spoiler

something like this is what im aiming for at the end. I wont be supporting Ethereal Knives with faster casting, so i pick up a lot of faster casting passive nodes.

Spoiler

If you have any questions, post away and ill try to check back here infrequently and answer what I can.

People have been asking to see my gear, so here it is so far. I need to work on the sockets and linking still, get a 5 or 6L in that armor etc. I don't have a spell totem set up yet and at this point am not sure I need it so we will see how that develops. A lot of gems are just laying around leveling up in case I want to use them at some point, like molten shells, enduring cries, life leech, etc.
