I assume you mean faster casting :)

Yea Mana is one big problem I have with this game, it's so very frustrating to finally get your links only to deal with massive mana issues. You'll need regen on several pieces of gear. Mana leech was nerfed hard, so that's not really a great option.
How are things going with this char? I hear once you level up Arc it can do tremendous damage. Are you playing any other build at the moment?
But I've been playing again, took a break from my Invasion character and been playing my standard ones that have good gear. Respecced my original level 90 dual wield cleave marauder into the spellblock aegis cyclone build, which allowed me to take on Atziri. I finally found the rare midnight piece which allowed me to enter her map, thanks to the recent buff in drops.
The Atziri map was pretty fun, but I can't get over how hard it was to access and complete it. That's a pretty big deal to have a mini-expansion with a new main boss and zone that is inaccessible for most of your player base. I've heard in a recent interview that they plan to have new content be more accessible, so that's great to hear.
I've also enjoyed my new crit split arrow build, that is currently using the low level fast attacking storm cloud bow, combined with triple aura (wrath/anger/grace), acrobatics, and lots of crit passives. Only issue is that my life is low. It's my first character with under 200% life, and it's been fun trying to dodge death. I figured standard would be a good place to try this type of build. We'll see how far it can get. I have a feeling once I get to 75 maps I'll be one-shot too much for my liking, so I'm hoping offense will be the best defense.
Anyway, glad to hear you're playing again!
