Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. Your life seems very low. You don't take many mana nodes either, and your chest doesn't have an energy shield component, but you have enough mana regen for lvl 20 AA? I guess the helm helps (I'm so used to using Alpha's Howl).

Yep, the life pool is sketchy. Neither ring has life on it. The gloves have a low (crafted) life roll. My gear isn't really optimized cuz I respeced into several different versions of EK; that's why all my resists are like 50% overcapped. The Lazhwar is pretty much required for max spellblock as you noticed, but it's possible to get rid of the Rainbowstrides and either spec into Mind Barrier or more block nodes to maintain max spellblock (allowing us to get boots with a life roll). The passive tree is spread really thin, so I pathed through life only when it was right next to us. I don't have enough mana regen to sustain AA while walking; only while standing still + casting EK (which is why I use lightning warp to move around). I think a 5L cloak would be better for this build than the coil (not to mention the socket colors would be easier to roll), but unfortunately I don't have one so I ended up using a coil.



You can definitely make this build hardcore viable by dropping crit nodes (or block nodes, but then you lose max spellblock) and speccing into life. Unfortunately I don't think there's a way to do a hardcore viable crit EK build; it requires way too many points. Yep, the life pool is sketchy. Neither ring has life on it.
