The other option is to try the self cast variant of old. Some info on that in my second post on Page 1. (Relic of the past) You can also look into my older videos etc...

That sounds like a good plan, didn't even notice that post! I've found atleast one of those prophecies every league, so might aswell try to grind it :) Scold's has always been an item I want to make a build around, so that will be my league goal anyways. Thanks a lot, and I will let you know if I ever get the gloves :)

Thinking of buying a watcher's eye with disc + maybe an anger mod but I am not sure where I'm gonna get the passives lol. I'm 94 and I feel like I need every single one of them.

Jeah jewel sockets are a bit rare. You probably have to get rid of one of your other 2 jewels. I just reached lvl 98 to get another jewel sockel and even then i had to decide if i would like to have a second curse instead.

Will this be better than Martyr if multimodded?

whats the gem quality priority?

The ones with damage :D

Controlled Destruction, Ele Focus, Conc Effect. In no particular order.

Unavailable

It would give me about 20% more damage. So I'm saying yes. (You will lose 30-34% block chance though so keep that in mind)

Yeah I would have to get rid of a lot of things because I would need points to take the sovereignty cluster as well.

Oh boy I am not sure if the watcher's eye is worth it right now. I'll have to look at POB to see how much dps that changes.

Anyway, is 3 damage taken gained as mana crafts enough to drop mana flask? It's really annoying on the sirus fight

Gryph, sorry for bugging you with this, but I'm somewhat confused about what all the gem links are for the build.

The PoB copy-paste has some that are completely different to what is in your "Gear" section in this guide. I'd be forever grateful if you could post links (and for which gear slots?) are needed/optional.

It kinda varies a little depending on a lot of things (do you have 2 6L's, are you running full aura setup, etc...) Like Spirit Offering can be on any level 1 CWDT setup wherever you need to fit it. And we have 3-4 CWDT setups.

But in general you want to have:

CWDT - Desecrate - Spell Cascade - (4th spell, probably a curse if you don't have curse on hit gloves)

CWDT - Ball Lightning - Combustion - 4th and 5th links can be anything from Power Charge on Crit(I have enfeeble gloves so no power charges from ASN Mark) to Purifying Flame and Wave of Conviction.



Really I think the issue is that there's no one set best way to do it as long as you have all your bases covered.

You want to have Wave of Conviction, Purifying Flame, and Spirit Offering *somewhere* and can even be all slapped together if you want. You don't need a curse if you have curse on hit gloves or Ring, but you want it if you don't.

Finding that you have a random open socket? cool, link your Flame Dash to Arcane Surge. Socket Starved? Don't. Lots of little decisions that I can't make for everybody.

TL:DR: Put these in CWDT SOMEWHERE and fill in the rest of your slots based on your desires/needs:

Desecrate - Spell Cascade
Ball Lightning - Combustion
Spirit Offering
Purifying Flame
Wave of Conviction

From there find slots for your Auras and movement skill of choice.

If you're using Leash of Oblation (with a +Offering Effect chest) then you want this 3L:
CWDT (lvl 21) - Bone Offering (21) - Flesh Offering (21)

Also my PoBs are for reference, not to be copied (that's what the guide is for)

So what mods do I put on it? Spell damage as chaos and spell damage?
