Hover over your item in-game and hit ctrl-c, open up http://poe.trade click on Import item data, paste into the box which will auto-fill all the fields when you hit Import!, and see what's available on there to price it. If you don't get any results, check all the fields and lower the minimum values until you find something similar.

This is bad advice, don't do that. That feature looks for the exact same stats as the pasted item had, which especially for jewels won't find most of the relevant matches. You need to make a more general search query. In case of that jewel, I'd say something like:
  • has mana leech
  • has three of:
    • IAS
    • IAS and ICS
    • IAS with bows
    • damage
    • projectile damage
    • physical damage
    • physical damage with bows

The big thing differentiating it from a completely generic bow damage jewel being the mana leech. It's potentially enough to sustain fire by itself, which would free up a passive point or a ring/amulet prefix.

How does the percentage damage reflection on the Bramblejack work? Does stacking armor hinder the Bramblejack's effectiveness by reducing the amount of damage taken and thus reflected?

40% of Melee Physical Damage taken reflected to Attacker

Yeah, it doesn't work well for an armor or evasion build. Your best bet would be a regeneration tank.

It looks like all uniques LL Icestorm can't really hit 10000 ES without legacy Perandus Signets. Since I wear 9 uniques, the 1% int per unique from each ring makes me lose 18% int over the legacy versions, which is a huge hit. I'm sitting at 8000 ES with lvl 19 Discipline right now. I'm considering buying a lvl 4 Empower to go with my Discipline, to push me up to around 9000-9500 ES, but that would mean I'd probably have to drop Blasphemy. I use Blasphemy for Temp Chains most of the time but occasionally I do have to put on Blasphemy Warmark for certain map mods. Is it worth dropping Blasphemy for the extra ES?

Yes. ES is something you have to go all in on.

Looks like this works so I keep Blasphemy but lose AA: https://poe.mikelat.com/#wVi-Nzb/wAasesc/kDpKz9W/2PG=_1mh

My setup will probably look like this then:

Weapon - 6 supports
The Vertex - lvl 4 Empower - lvl 3 Enlighten - Discipline - Purity of Elements
Gloves - CWDT - Increased Duration - Immortal Call - Rallying Cry
Boots - Blasphemy - Temp Chains - Purity of Fire - 1 "Free" slot (Warmark kind of needs to be here unless I want to chrome my boots a lot every time I need to switch)
Chest - Blood Magic - Purity of Lightning - Purity of Ice - lvl 13 Clarity, Flame Dash - 1 free slot or 2 free slots

Given the 2 free slots, I suppose the "best" setup would involve getting a 6L Shav's for the build, so I could run a 6L of CWDT - Inc Duration - IC - Rallying Cry - Vaal Discipline - Vaal Discipline. I could look into that after saving enough to buy a lvl 4 Empower. 4 red 2 blue Shav's would be rough though.

Speaking of which, I've made my first ever CI character ever this league. :shobon: One thing I've always wondered was, do the people running 10k+ ES run any mitigation at all? Armor/Evasion or otherwise? Is their answer to 'not getting one-shot' simply 'have a truckload of ES and hope I leech/Vaal Discpline (which I still don't have!) it back up'?

Pretty much, there's a couple builds out there that have high defenses on top of high ES but most ES builds are just all in on ES. A super high effective HP pool does a lot when you combine it with really good leech or regen.

If you can squeeze in Grace in your high ES build, Grace + Jade Flask of Reflexes provides a ton of evasion, especially since a lot of ES builds use The Vertex as a hat. Aegis Aurora builds often use a very high ES + armor chainmail, but that's different from a pure ES stacking build. Arctic Armor provides a good chunk of phys mitigation, and if you feel like it then 4-5 Endurance Charges is pretty reasonable, assuming you can spare 2 points for an Endurance Charge and you don't have to get a different type of charge from Merciless Bandits. I'm personally using very high elemental resists with Taste of Hate, Arctic Armor, and a Basalt flask for physical mitigation, as well as Blasphemy Temp Chains + chill from Icestorm for general mitigation. No endurance charges, Evasion, or Armor though. Also if you use a 1 hander + shield, you can probably get a reasonable amount of block with Rathpith + Rainbowstride.

And of course everyone uses Vaal Discipline on ES builds. The only things that aren't really practical to do for ES builds are Acrobatics and pure Armor stacking.

Theoretically you can, but there's not much synergy. Blasphemy is only effective when enemies are close to you, while Spark's appeal is you can clear multiple screens of content.

That is an extremely outdated list. The one on the wiki is okay: http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Map

My caveat is that whoever wrote that puts maps where it's easy to miss small groups of enemies because of how wide they are at A (Colonnade, I'm looking at you) while giving all the maps I absolutely love because they're indoors with tight corridors and it's impossible to ever miss mobs a C due to them forcing you to backtrack a long way sometimes (Vaal Pyramid, Museum, Waste Pool, etc). I value clearing every pack on a map way more than not ever having to backtrack, because I'm very paranoid about getting the most chance to sustain map pool possible, while most people are only concerned with leveling fast. Also the boss difficulty is all over the place and inconsistent, so take it with a grain of salt.

Also if you're me you sell every Gorge map. It's the best map layout of any map, but I see no reason to ever run them while people are willing to pay a large premium for them. People buy Gorges for just under 4 chaos each, Arid Lake and Residence for 2, and Malformation and Underground River for like 1 fuse. I personally think it's kind of dumb to pay the large premium per map when Residence is a good layout and drops a really good Divination card, Arid Lake is also a great layout, and Underground River is really easy despite having a pretty annoying layout. A similar quant/packsize roll on any T9 map should yield about the same drops.

Yeah Residence has a great layout, I always run those. Be aware of where the stairs are, and clear the side rooms furthest from the next set of stairs upwards.

I personally value easy layouts over backtracking, so I prefer maps that have a compromise between that and funnelling enemies towards you are the best. I personally loathe underground river and tunnel, because you always notice a pack in an alcove, but you need to backtrack around to reach it.

Hooray, I tried to trade with someone and couldn't understand how currency worked, so they emptied a chunk of their stash on me to welcome me to the game.

I went from pretty ok stuff to the following bunch of garbage on together:
Roth's Reach
The Peregrine
Foxshade
Prismweave
Nomic's Storm
Karui Ward
Asphyxia's Wrath
some magic ring that gives me -7 mana to all skills so i am actually incapable of running out of mana

I am now insanely fast and it rules. i wonder how long this stuff will keep my lightning arrow ranger going

So you give up a Shield slot in Facebreaker builds for Rampage, Onslaught while Rampage (it says the manifested weapon gives Onslaught while active), and a pet that is hopefully strong enough to kill things in higher tier maps? It's definitely an interesting tradeoff, though it might be really terrible to fight bosses with since you won't be consistently unarmed.

I think I'd just keep a shield in my weapon swap for bosses.

Dual t1 (for elreon) res and -8 on a diamond. I have no clue what the market looks like for this poo poo right now.

You can't divine the life very high; divining only works within the tier. I'm voltaxic spark and wouldn't have any interest in that amulet due to the low life. Really, damage is more than fine already and a meager 16% increased is a pittance compared to all the more modifiers I already have. And it doesn't begin to compare dps-wise to the sparker amulet of choice, Victario's Acuity.

Elreon ring is probably worth between 2 and 4 exalts.

For the Amulet: you can't divine between tiers, so those mods will still be garbage rolls if you divine. Hell, that %Energy Shield roll and %Spell Damage roll are both perfect rolls for their tier, so those would probably go down.
