i did some small improvements to my build and have increased my dps but decreased es a little bit.
now have:
10634 es
581k (872k shocked) shaper dmg per ball according to pob with conc eff instead of ancestral call
its hard to increase the es when i want high dmg while still staying somewhat budget
The DPS calculation in POB is per ball. Although dropping AC might seem like more DPS it's actually worse because you get twice as many balls with AC and this isn't reflected in the DPS numbers.
I took the liberty of trying an alternative pathing for your build.
See if you like this a bit better:

You might have to fiddle with resists some in the alternative pathing shown above.
i know about AC, but then i have to find the right distance while hitting and in most cases i prefer namelocking coz its faster. its just too difficult for me to find the right distance is such short amount of time, especially when the boss if permenently moving. thats why i swap AC for conc eff against bosses.
i checked ur pathing and when i swap in conc eff and unspec celestial judgement coz im not lvl 100 yet i get:
575k per ball
10452 es
i lose 25% es regen
i lose a bit atk speed
i dont need the mana leech node coz i can spam ms infinitely without going oom
but u showed me that i can put 1 more brute force solution instead of 1 normal jewel, i lose 200 es, but i can have 604k per ball with my pathing.
dude whats the pro of ur pathing if i dont need the mana leech node?
When I compare the two pathings I get about 10% more DPS with the alternative pathing.
The alternative pathing gets to point blank using less passives affording the opportunity to take different nodes.
If you don't need the leech node you can of course drop it.
ur tree is for lvl 100, mine for lvl 97.
here both trees for lvl 100 (i got some better jewels):
current: https://pastebin.com/3ux9pecD
alternative https://pastebin.com/Mq3MY1Yj
dps and es of ur version are nearly the same.
with ur version
i lose 30% regen
i lose a little bit of atk speed
i lose ignite immunity from belt
i gain +1 max light res

You would of course want to fix this w/ gear/jewels.
If you don't need mana leech you can path through Shaper and the regen nodes to retake the jewel slot near Scion instead of the jewel along the top near Instability.

the alternative tree that u made has 123/123 skills and not 120/123 as it should be for lvl 97

Correct. When I made the tree I was incorrectly looking at the level display which said 97 prior to making the pastebin and didn't double check the skill point display.
Hey guys looking for some advice on my jugg build. Do not really know what I'm doing and just spent about 15-20ex on gear. dying alot on t14 maps because of weak resistance (i think). I cant use Purity of Elements with wrath and disciple since I don't have enough mana. Any advice is appreciated. my character is RSTHREEe in my profile.
I have recently FINALLY gotten a molten strike helmet
i changed my passives around and fiddled with things a bit, instead of taking point blank as a gem, (i think that is a total waste of a slot) i pathed down to it on the passive tree.
let me tell you, molten strike is way, way, way better than BF. i was so god damn stubborn, since i have leveled with molten strike so many times, i almost refused to play it. totally regret being so stubborn, but glad i have come around and made the swap.

it literally quadrupled my damage.
man thats a sick helm. I paid 4EX for mine with only +1 to ms. How much did that cost?
