The pillar of fire build

Hi, made a build based on CoI that I think is really fun and I just wanted to share. I really like the concecpt of arcanist brand but it was always too slow for me to use so i decided to go with necromancer. You need 2 ngamahu's sign, a eye of innoncence amulet a Glorious vanity with doryani timeless jewel and to be almost impossible to kill uneed a watcher's eye with energy shield gain on hit, at least 20. Using CoI loop with CWDT we create a loop that always consume corpses, giving you 200% attack/cast speed with Corpse Pact ascendancy, with Mistres of sacrifice and glancing blows u can have easy max attack/spell block and with essence glutton mana is never an issue. So once u start the loop it never stops while u are hiting something ( i'll link pastbin of my build for you to see the setup) with an watcher's eye the only true enemie you have is Lag and sometimes DoT if u can't hit anything. Staff, wand, shield, sword, bow, you can use anything u want, it will work.

Mandatory setup for loop never stop is cwdt+spell cascade+desecrate+volatil dead(cremation or detonated dead) and cwdt+bone offering.. the rest is up to you, you can use anything u want, all cwdt are level 1. If u wanna get close and hit a LOT use cwdt+blade vortex+skeleton+dark pact. With so many hits and having Corrupted soul from the timeless jewel u dont lose life or es from your loop. For damage we take enemy fire res away with combustion, flamability, wave of conviction(use all of these on a cwdt somewhere), a wise oak flask if possible and i use 2 cluster jewel with Cooked alive(Enemies ignited by you have -10% fire res) and if u wana go crazy use a fire pene somewhere x) everything and every is vulnerable to fire and u clear any maps easly even just with those level 1 cwdt. And every corpse you spawn chill and shock enemies for even more damage :D

For the real damage you need Arcanist brand+Swiftbrand+Faster casting+Firestorm+ whatever you want. I use Increased duration+ Conc effect. So, with all this you have any enemye with -10% or more fire res and insane cast speed in my case arcanist brand activates every 0.14 sec while attached wich is roughtly 7 times per second and we have 2 brand from Runebinder. So it's 14 firestorms per second, with increased duration it last 4.28 second, in those 4.28 u can have 59 firestorms going on and it make a nice pillar of fire thats follow any any enemy :D + all the cwdt setups + the negative res of the enemy + all the regen you have, you melt anything. i have done all content inlcuding HoGm. Sirus is the tricky bcs you cant hit him all the time and you have to restart your loop all the time, but if your loop is up, u can stay in his beam you wont die, same for shaper x)

You can use any skill really with this loop setup, they all will hit super fast, i even took a quill rain and hit with frenzy with somethig like 15hit per seconds and its awsome. But i think firestorm is the best here bcs of the duration. You can play with armageddon brand too but it's way too strong, its kill everything too fast to let the loop on going. Storm brand can achieve somehting like activate every 0.07/0.06sec.

i Think it's a very fun build with some nice dps and i wanted to share :D If you go in mine be careful that lag sometimes leaves you in the dark before u can do anything about it x)Here is my build: https://pastebin.com/R71AvcYtI hope you enjoy it too :D
