Did you take a look at the notes in POB? It also includes the tree as it changes by level.

Just level with holy flame totem until you get archmage support. Then you can clear basically the rest of the game with storm brand/archmage 2-link. I'm serious. I entered maps with storm brand in my boots and one of the 4 sockets was a low level chain.

Can someone answer a new player some questions?

This is my current build. I don't get why I only have 6.5k ES and not 7k+ like OP does.

And should I upgrade some Items right now or should I save for the Watchers Eye already. I have ~17ex to spend.

Also did I any mistakes so far I oversee?

You can use Flesh Offering ;)

I really like the trigger conductivity/WoC wand setup. I bought a 5c wand to test it out (i'm EO atm, so no big loss). I'm playing around with phase run over blade blast as the 3rd spell. Finally got my Skyforth, too. Still feels very rippy at t15-16 even with 8.2k ES. Once I've finished some minor touchups on the stuff I'm working on and save enough I'll try respec'ing to incorporate at least one cluster jewel. I think attachment range might help a lot to keep me alive; explody shit dying further away and brands attaching to new packs more often during recall cd.

I'm getting an error message when I try that pastebin, so I can only offer general advice. You can get ES and mana on belt, jewel, and both rings, and mana on wand. Messing with my PoB, if I take off skyforth with 91 mana, I lose ~350 ES. If you have really bad mana rolls on one or two items, it could really hurt your ES. Your wand should have 150+ mana. If you're using Apep's, swapping it for even a 5-10c wand can boost your ES by 500+ with minimal or no loss to dps.
