Resource starvation @ Affli low gear

[ClearMind]

So i decided to roll an affli warlock offchar, but i often find myself running out of soul shards. As affli's only generator is Agony (i don't have ToS 2p bonus yet), how do i compensate that?

I'm playing with Soul Conduit as lvl 100 talent - 860 ilvl, no legendaries yet.

Hi,
So, tos 2pc isn't really that much helpful for shard generation, it's will roughly give you 1 shard per minute. What u need is proper shards spending, don't spend all of them everytime u don't have anything else to do, but I won't go into details there, there's a lot of guides everywhere.
About leggos - only belt and head help with shards generation - it will change your playstyle a little, u will start casting UA on everything that's doesn't have it yet, and u'll save a lot of shards while boosting dps a bit, head bonus is quite obvious, its just 10% less time between agony ticks.
There's not really much more I can say, your should always try to save atleast 1 shard in case rng is bad and there's no agony/corru procs for some time. Also, in current patch, haste have more value now, so aim for atleast 20% base to have more agony/corru ticks=more chances for shards.

As said above, dont spam soulshards, affli is all about uptime of dots on all targets and shards management.
That being said, the general rule is you wanna stay at 2-3 shards most of the fight.
Have good timing of Reap to benefit atleast on 2 UAs on their full duration.
Make sure to multidot everytime its possible.
And always use drain soul on dying adds.
