Enki's Arc Witch - dead for now

Hi can someone tell me why we don't use "Mastermind of Discord."
I feel as if the heralds would be to good to pass up.
I don't feel like paragon of calamity is worth two ascendancy points. All you're really getting from it is .5 ele damage leeched as life and reflect immunity. (Which i could just avoid by not running those maps.) I can get .4 percent lighting damage leeched as life on a amulet. which frees up two ascendancy points.

I want to make the switch to test test it out. but i also don't know what auras id sacrifice.

Did anyone else look into this because I can't seem to find it in the main guide.

I kinda agree this is better but I feel you can do it once you have enough energy shield and can drop Discipline. But you need good ES gear + Devouring diadem to do that
I was just explaining how I went about things, as I was able to, may not be the most efficient way but it was early league and currency wasn't great so I went with what would affect me the most at the time with my current price budget. Yeah I've already had someone message me for the craft its no problem. I spammed jewellers, then quality the chest to 20 and tried my luck, took me around 700 fusings, I've had the experience of thousands without a link too its just bad luck.

Hello everyone, i'm playing with 3.9 Enki build right now, can someone told me if this one is better?
what i need change for this build, looks like i can just buy gems, change socket collors, and passive three? or i need something else?
Hi all, any good suggestion for which cluster jewel uses with this build?
If I have 3,5 exalts, should I spend it on a diadem or a good staff?

(don't check my gears, I have intentionally not been investing in them, because I don't know where my ~final~ resistances stand + I am still not stuck in content)
Sorry. Just my opinion on this build.

This build is very weak in my playthrough. Monsters with Resist Elem Damage and Resist Lightning is very hard to kill and you get killed fast if you are not very careful.

I will wait for Enki to update this build.
Just wondering what Cluster Jewel people went with? looking at getting one now and just want to see what the best option is for us.
Just landed Katrina Necromancer Circlet first time ! very happy.

Quick tip... I think its worth picking up the prophecy "Kalandra's Craft" for about 1c. Wait till you kill Katrina, then you see her name in a box (like when you kill a syndicate member) BEFORE you click on her name trigger the prophecy now you have a chance to get 4 mirrored drops. Worked for me. At the very least you can unveil more crafts, or you might get lucky and hit something valuable x4

(just to be clear you can only get 4x rare items, not 4x uniques)

I want to start this build with a few changes mid league and was wondering what you all thought and if there is anything I’m missing since it’s been so long since I’ve played Arc.

Changes
Arc is in crafted staff with mods
- +2-3 gem levels (various options)
- spell damage + chaos hybrid
- +2 support
- 3 crafted mods
- Lightning Damage or cast speed
- Aspect of the Spider

OoS will be a 6L in body armour, manual cast. Arc will be using the Empower setup.

Running 9 golems
- 1 Default
- 2 Ascendencies
- 1 Golem Commander
- 3 The Primordial Chain
- 2 The Anima Stone + 2x Primordial Eminence
- Total Increased golem buff = 620% (with Primordial Bonds)

Gem links
Helm (+2-3 minion levels mod)
- Stone, Ice, Chaos Golems
- Meat Shield

Gloves / Boots
- Flame, Lightning Golems
- Elemental Army
- Culling Strike

Boots / Gloves
- Flame Dash
- Second Wind
- Arcane Surge (7)
- Steelskin or Vaal Molten Shell

Rings
- Zealotry
- Wrath

I’m not entirely set on boots/rings, and the tree will obviously be a bit different in order to compensate for the additional mana reservation.

Edit: I’m also looking into being able to use Archmage Support, but so far it’s way too expensive. I’m estimating about 80% mana pool per second. I get ~1000 from Golem and Fenemus’ Shroud, and I can leech 30% ES pool. Can anyone think of something I’m missing? If ES and mana are both at 4000, I’m still short ~1000, and I’d prefer not to have to dip into mana recovery due to MoM.


Just a heads up - you can't have staff with "+3 to all lightning gems" and "+2 to all support gems" in a same time, they are mutually exclusive. Learned it a hard way.

Though "+2 to all spell gems" and "+2 to all support gems" will work fine.
