Chaos Inoculation Interaction Question
Hi,I think I have finally enough ES (4k) and Mana (4k) to take Chaos Inoculation on my Spark Stormweaver build. First map I was doing, I noticed my life going down at the same rate as my energy shield. I didn't want to lose XP so I removed Chaos Inoculation because I didn't want to die but is it just a visual bug or would I die if I don't have any ES left? And I didn't have any mana flasks that remove life equipped. Just curious how to make Chaos Inoculation safe to use. I have 850 mana regen and 650 ES regen (+ Grim Feast) so I think I should be safe running Chaos Inoculation.Thank you for your help!

Your life is your energy shield. You will die since your "real" health is 1
Edit- also never played sorc so dont how viable chaos innoculation is with sorc, but your es should should be higher than 4k
Chaos Inoculation replaces the visual indicator of your health bar with one for your energy shield. If you don't have Mind over Matter, you'll die if your energy shield hits 0. (Or technically -1 since you also have 1 health.)
How can your life go down? You only have 1. If it goes down so do you. I don’t understand what you mean I guess.
Based on what you say, you should be fine to run CI alongside Mind over Matter
Your stats are plenty for CI (4K ES, 4K mana, 850 mana regen) on this build. If you are just starting mapping and have that much you are really solid, if had about that and was running pinnacle content no problem.
You are probably just misunderstanding a visual change when you go CI. Your health globe becomes blue because it is ES now, not life. It’s a weird UI glitch that the ES bar remains and shows the exact same thing just in a different way.
do you have mind over matter? MoM only redirects damage to health, so damage would go through your ES (4k), then your mana (4k), then your health (1) and then you die. Just think of it as a healthpool of 8001
