ELE LIGHTNING STRIKE - ALL T16s, Shaper, Uber Atziri, HOGM, Chayula, Elder
Another claw variant here with almost every piece copied over from my ST build I've been playing a lot of. Never played LS before and wanted to mess around with it. To say I'm impressed is an understatement. I love the relaxed playstyle of ranged multistrike just blasting everything in sight. The single target damage while ranged is also surprisingly high. I'm loving it and look forward to pushing it higher i.e. shaper etc.
Im using Atziri's mirror until i can afford Lycosidae, and hopefully get a better Ambusher.
Hi bud thanks for posting. About your APS question: I think maybe it's a leveling issue - your Multistrike needs to be higher level and are you using Onslaught path? I cant see your characters so can't compare in PoB - what is your APS you are getting? My APS is mostly coming from Multistrike, Frenzy charges, and Onslaught buffs from Ascendancy.
If you are looking to upgrade your gear try and find a better dagger with more crit chance and lightning damage. Try and quality your life flask (although I would recommend Eternal rather than Divine life flask unless you want instnat life recovery mod in which case Divine is better).

Thanks for the detailed guide. Cheers.
Thanks man, and nice gear. Would you mind posting your claw tree for others who are playing claw may want to check it out.
Nice gloves, you prefer those vs. tombfist / thunder mitts?

Here is what the optimized claw tree should look like at lvl 96 with alira (which is what I took for ST) and at lvl 94 with kill all version. Very similar except for the dagger/claw node swaps (9 points, 10 with VP) This is with VP by the way, it's optional as you've gone over in the guide. In fact, if I went dagger, I would most likely skip VP due to the extra travel node before the Adder's Touch cluster. If the extra intelligence is needed, feel free to respec the proj damage jewel socket to the one below Melding for 20 int.

My current tree is not optimized and needs a few repecs.
As far as the gloves and rest of the gear go, I literally threw it all together last night after buying the voidwalkers, choir and helm. Replacing my current gloves would cause havoc with resists that I'm not really prepared to deal with right now. Crushing T15's so far so the damage is already there. Haven't tried any higher yet as I'm getting used to the playstyle and trying to maximize open layouts.

Ok so i switched the Life flask and i did not get the onslaught part of the Ascendency tree since im scared to run the last difficulty lab(and im missing 1 trial) My current APS is 5.21 default and fully buffed with flask, Vaals, Totem, Ice Golem without fully maxed level and 6 Frenzy charges is 9.71

Ok, I'm at 5 APS in town, so it's pretty close. With Onslaught path I think you should get above 10 APS fully buffed
How does ancestral call fit in with LS? I'm playing with it while lvling up and it's a massive improvement. Seems neat for map clearing.
Yes it's very powerful for clearing when I get close and play in melee, but I can't find it useful because my clearing is not a problem and I am trying to stay at range anyway xD. For boss fights I feel you cannot get good DPS with this gem. I think it is a good fit for those who like to play melee LS and want to have faster clearing.
