I’ve been basing the build off maxroll.gg’s guide and it just feels like I don’t get any of the stats I need to make it work consistent (lvl 70 now) and I just feel mana drained a lot. What are the priority stats to make it work best and does INT trump all the other stats? It’s been hard to go away from a staff to 1H/Off because the stats (+133 all stats, etc) seem to make the build hit harder. Also, I’m just kind of useless mana drained as I use shards, Frost/Fire shield and a Ultimate/Teleport.

Endagame build on maxroll and other sites are based on the fact that you have the recommended gear. If you don’t have it, the described build doesn’t work.p, and this is valid for most players.
Try to optimize the build on the gear you have

What level? I dont have a conceited lego, so I toyed with keeping avalanche and tried the avalanche lego. Im using it as a holdover until i can get some lucky hit to resource gear.
I actually found getting to the max mana nodes on the board was helpful because your shards hit much harder over 100 mana. If you can get to around 150 mana and around 20% mana reduction, you can cast 3 shards in a row over 100 mana.
Outside of your one shot combo (stacking all your multipiers) try to only cast shards over 100 mana. Its more optimal. You will cast fewer in quick succession, but ultimately cast the same amount over time. May as well cast them over 100 mana and wait before casting again, making them all have higher crit chance and dmg than emptying your mana orb and waiting and only getting the buff on the first.
Maxroll has different setups based on gear thresholds, but you have to comb through the content.
What you are probably after is more investment into lucky hit and lucky hit proc to return mana. You can also take avalanche and the aspect to double it and then you should have near infinite mana when facing larger packs as you get more proc’s.
Use avalanche, destructive shards (to make enemies vulnerable), and Frigid Breeze (for mana when you hit vulnerable targets). These should help
This is the way. I use the +40% chance to crit at 100 or more mana. I don’t spam the ice shards, I frost nova then let that deal with the little guys then pick out the big targets with a burst or two of shards. Does work better with 130 plus mana tho. Critical City.
Doing absolutely fine at level 50 Act 2 with Blizz, IS and FB.
Sometimes just casting Blizzard on its own is enough for adds. Stupidly easily, tbh (WT2).
It’s difficult to put wrong talents in with this build because there aren’t many options. I even have the Ice Shied % freeze when hit chance which is handy.
I don’t expect to be able to spam IS so whilst I’m recouping mana and waiting for FN I just spam FB. Does ok damage and it’s useful for bosses.
