Reliquarian passive changes in Covens of Umbra

Which passives could matter for your build?
- Defences: The Brass Dome preview shows +5% to maximum elemental resistances and removes the extra damage taken from critical strikes. It also removes the maximum-life bonus from Strength. Death’s Door offers bleed protection and one extra maximum Endurance Charge.
- Triggered spells and minions: Festering Resentment makes triggered spells poison on hit and lets all damage from those spells contribute to poison. United in Dream offers level 25 Envy and a 60% chance for minions to poison on hit.
- Mana and attacks: Praxis combines flat skill-cost reduction with mana regeneration, recoup and cost efficiency. Rigwald’s Quills lets attack projectiles fork twice. Starcaller triggers level 20 Starfall on a melee critical strike.
What to check before league start
These are effects shown on Reliquarian passive nodes. Check which nodes you can take together and whether your build meets the conditions in their tooltips. For example, Starcaller calls for a melee critical strike, and Festering Resentment applies to triggered spells.
