Enki's Arc Witch - dead for now

@might_99
Well, it is hard to tell, as you removed your chest and helmet. But it seems that you have gone for Eldritch Battery without ES items, and were at the worst point of this build. Missing ALL crit nodes on the tree, but switching out from EO is tough.
To smooth this, I decided to go with cluster jewel for few more levels, leaving EO and then switched around level 77, as at this point I was able to take few important nodes. As for golems, with meat shield it is not too bad for me right now, although Delirium mobs hit them hard.
And remember that patch 3.9 buffed mobs resistances, which is making every ele build to go online a bit later.

@enki:
i do have another question which is not related to the current version.

in 3.4/3.5 or so you used to skill damage with spiritual aid and minion damage.
what was the reason for you to switch to crit? i am asking bc i still use the SA thing and i am doing quite fine. wondering tho if i could max out my char if i would switch to crit too.

if you can spare a minute

@enki:

Would Archmage support work with our build? I'm not sure what i need to change to get it working

I'm feeling pretty deflated. Even on T9 maps I'm struggling to kill anything tanky like delirium boss and map bosses. Will throwing more currency at the toon help at all, or should I cut my losses? Diadem is 4.5 EX atm, Cinderswallow 1+, etc......

Last league around the same stage I had the same feeling, but I stuck with it and was getting huge damage by endgame. I think you just gotta continue to level gems, look for improvements, etc etc, the damage will come im sure.

I would wait for Diadem or target farm Jun as much as possible.

Please help me, i've just reached the epilogue, i have a very bad equip and i don't have currency for buying some good equip, i'm on my second map and it's very hard to clear... what can i do?

I would try delve for currency and jewelry nodes (to help with chaos reciepe).

I haven't played since Delirium launched, does the current update of this build work in standard or does it require any delirium-exclusive stuff?

The reason why everyone is dying is because the build went from Wand/Sceptre + Shield to Staff-only. You get rid of the shield, you lose a lot of defense and rely solely on melting everything before it reaches you. Good luck doing that in a league where the mobs have all kinds of phys damage fuckery going on. You simply aren't going to tank anything with 4k HP and little armor, it just isn't going to happen.

I would highly recommend revisiting the version of this build that has shields.

I don't have sulphite lol but i'm the only one with problems?

I just competed all the Acts and Epilogue and did one map last night. Was able to clear everything. Died once during the Acts due to real life attack from my kids. They ambushed me; wasn't expecting it.

Changed the passives over and ran 1 map last night. Was able to clear it no issues. Only level 1. I'm in the middle of switching over to staff. Loving the build. If Enki's running the build and clearing stuff it works.

I love how this build kills around corners and kills stuff off the screen some times. Hilarious! There might be some fine tuning along the way; but, there always is.

THANK YOU FOR THE BUILD AND THE TIME YOU SPENT PUTTING IT TOGETHER! IT TOTALLY MADE THE GAME FOR ME!

COOKIES FOR YOU!
