I know this is probably a dumb question and I've missed it somewhere but how do you get back your mana so fast? I see some of the mana regen on gear but it looks like there's some leech involved, no? I don't see it anywhere on skill tree, would just like to know how to improve this one aspect. Thanks!

edit: Is it the Berek's Grip?

With similar gear at level 88 I only have 28% crit in my hideout while you show that you have 51%, how do you get your crit chance that high?

Spoiler

My gear + passives https://www.pathofexile.com/fullscreen-passive-skill-tree/3.0.1/AAAABAUBAQKWAx4D7gSzBUIHHgj0CaoMUg5ID6sRLREvEZYWbxa_HNwdFB2DHb4fQSL0JIsmlSj6KgsqOCsKLJwwWzLRM4c1kjrhQYdBlkVHRZ1JT1NSVUtd8mHiZJ1qQ2wLbRlvO3BSeA18g3_Gga-Cm4LHhMWFMonTi4yMNo5kjxqPRo_6km6TJ5Uuly2aO5rgm7WexKEvogCmV6a-pwiouayXsQW18rb6tz64k7jQvFa8qrzqvorAGsBmwJrDOsu90PXSfNWm2L3Z_No64XPjauaB6-7r9e088B_w1fId8kX3pvnd-ej60v4K?accountName=Infinitease&characterName=ThirdTimeThisLeague

Is there any freezing spark builds that actually uses spark while leveling? :/

It seems in your guide that you won't even use spark until 90 or? O.o

I love the idea of freezing builds... i already tried pulse freezing crit etc :)

I really wanted to find a working spark build!

Berek's Grip is only one part of the puzzle. For mana sustain we also Warlord's & Assasin's Mark, a high mana pool, many mana nodes on tree and also really important "Battle Rouse" ("3% of damage taken gained as mana...". This setup should always sustain our mana and also makes us kinda tanky via mind over matter.

Thanks. Battle Rouse was one thing I didn't have yet and that did help. I'm still finding that I go out of mana quite often though and definitely need to keep a mana potion on me. I'm only 78 right now so maybe it'll get better later on, and that's with rare boots that have 0.4% of health/life after recent kills.

So I guess this leads to the next question, how do I get enemies to get frozen more often which will let Berek's Grip leech mana? Right now enemies don't seem to freeze a lot. Raising crit doesn't seem to improve the chance with Herald of Thunder which says it has a 20% chance to freeze. Or am I understanding this whole mechanic wrong?

Thanks again!

Sorry I didn't check back in sooner. My sparker ate the dirt on Kitava Act 10 while leveling so I had to re-roll.
I level as self-cast spark + flame totem. I feel it's way faster than dual totems, especially pizza sticks because too many mobs dodge and avoid flameblast. I cleared act 7 in HHC in less than 7 hours which includes afking and trading. The totem helps with bosses that you can't stand and facetank, while self-cast spark melts bosses in small arenas.
Since I'll be mapping in hardcore I'm going a slightly different build to you to pick up a bit more life.

This is my build at 59 for Hardcore
https://goo.gl/8mRgNW

and this is my intended build at 85 that will be using Pledge of Hands and either belly/kaoms/whatever high life armor i can get
https://goo.gl/g7AaWC

I always try to build around level 85, then everything after is bonus. So I'll probably go the rest of the scion life wheel then into more damage. I should be done with act 10 today or tomorrow then I'll start mapping at which point I'll let you know how it goes in hardcore.
