Thanks for the feedback on my approach. \o/

I am not even doing many Archnemesis encounters, mostly hop on low level character when I drop a Berserker mod and use it on Ledge and hope for a Tabula. Well, not long until I can use RF and get a six-link somehow.

What is best to change next for more damage anyone got ideas? probably the shield and chest ?

This is about 70 C spent and most of it on one of the rings that was 45 C, probably could have had similar results buying essences but i had a couple drops flip for some decent C this league and my atlas tree plan has been working to make me good currency.Im not swimming but im ready for another 70C- 2 ex upgrade.

Ohh im self casting frost bomb and wave and the other one because the cast on hit just felt too clunky and im used to doing more so throwing them down against anything i stop to incinerate hasnt really bothered me much plus it made room for stone golem and leap slam which are nice.

Here are some thoughts from someone who's participated in two previous leagues, Harvest and Scourge. (Though I barely did any mapping in Scourge, so you may call it one and a half previous leagues...)

Let me start off by saying I have never played anything like this build before and chose this guide on a complete whim. Well, I am in Act 7 at the moment (level 59) and my experience has been lovely so far. I've been copying the passive tree from the guide and have used Molten Strike since the very beginning, and in fact...I still do!

I tried Righteous Fire for the first time in my early level 50s and it's great. But just because I started using RF, didn't mean I had to stop using Molten Strike, right? At some point I probably will, but it's not time to say goodbye quite yet – it's still doing respectable damage. Perhaps whatever I'm doing right now won't work as the content gets more challenging, but for the time being I am really enjoying this combination.

Early on I got my hands on this level 13 two-handed axe called Limbsplit that "Triggers Level 1 Gore Shockwave on Melee Hit if you have at least 150 Strength". Well, luckily for me, this build gets a ton of strength, and this Gore Shockwave turned out to be an amazing companion to my Molten Strike. And as it also turned out, any appropriate support gem fitted in this weapon benefits Gore Shockwave, regardless of links. Wow!

(The only downside with this is that it consumes a lot of gem slots...!)

I actually used this weapon all the way into my 40s, when I finally started looking for something new. Well, after finding out that Limbsplit had a big brother, a level 40 fated version called The Cauteriser, the choice was made for me. This axe is still serving me honorably, although the damage appears to be falling off somewhat. But perhaps that doesn't have as much to do with the axe, as it has to do with the fact that I'm not investing any skill points into dealing physical/melee damage! (Let us keep in mind that I have all the damage from RF on top of this.)

I started stacking life regeneration long before I started using Righteous Fire, it turned out to be a quite useful stat on its own! By the time I activated RF for the first time, whatever life regeneration I had from the passive tree and my items (including my loyal golem) turned out to be more than plenty. Now that I think about it, it seems a bit excessive that I am using TWO life flasks...

I am also really enjoying the league mechanic. It has given me so many uniques and a not insignificant amount of currency. Oh, did I forget to mention I got a Tabula Rasa at level 4 in The Mud Flats? Hahaha! Later on I even got a second Tabula Rasa from the Archnemesis stuff. Yes, I admit this must have made my journey smoother, but I have a feeling it wouldn't have been so bad even without all those white sockets. (Please note I use a 5L unique at the moment and that I actually never sold my Tabula Rasas, i.e. I didn't use them to finance any extravaganza!)

My gloves are currently fitted with some CWDT stuff, but I am really questioning its current value. I honestly don't know if I have ever seen it go off... Perhaps I leveled that CWDT gem far too greedily. As things currently stand, this seems like four wasted gem slots. Next time I play, I'm going to try Herald of Ash for the first time and see how that works for me. I saw that there's a cool unique ring that has a lot of interesting buffs for Herald of Ash, hmm...

Feel free to check out my character for my current setup! 😎

Edit: Realized I could link my items here! (as someone pointed out to me, apparently I am exclusively decked out in uniques...lol)

well so far no luck for me crafting i have had some minor luck making some 60 % burning damage 15 fire dot multi opals using harvest crafts but nothing amazing yet. i swapped to a second scepter and ditched the shield maybe when i finish my leveling ( going for 96 so i can get the damage on tree back i sacraficed for this cluter jewel im using) ill have enough damage to go back to a shield but i doubt it.

t15-16 maps are kind of a slog now doable but not very chill. Rerolling maps is a pain also lot of modifiers cant be done because it borks the RF. So far though its ok i did have to stop in delve and go sideways also but im at max monster depth so its fine.

Just hit maps with this; once again, great build! :D

Had a couple lucky drops and crafts; I'd never used a Voideye, but +5 gem level on an unset ring seemed to fit in quite well with Purity of Fire, so that gave me an instant +1% max fire rez.

Instilling Orbs have been decent to me; already got two +charge on hit flasks that trigger when full, so that's a start. Hoping the drops will ramp up so I can get into no-life-flask territory earlier than last time.
