Is this uber elder viable?

Tip: Open options/input. Scroll down to 'attack in place'. Bind attack in place to a key on the numberpad (I use 7). Turn num lock on, then hold down your num 7 and turn off num lock, then release 7. You now always attack with the ranged attack.

Could you please explain to me how elemental weakness and curse on hit are activated when your cast on damage taken gem states that it only works on gem required level 38 and below ?
Your two skill gems are level required 58 and 70

Counter-Attacks - As we are block specialists, we can utilize all three of the available counter-attacks. The counter-attacks and their associated gems can be leveled up all the way.

The Counter-Attacks provide a way to passively curse our enemies for additional defense or offense and also do some free damage. I have chosen Reckoning for this purpose as it applies the curse to more enemies than the other Counter-Attack skills could.

Link with Curse on Hit and your choice of one curse: Enfeeble - The only choice for hardcore, this is very powerful against endgame bosses due to its ability to reduce their damage and critical strikes, or you can use Vulnerability (for physical attack skills) or Elemental Weakness (for elemental attack skills) here instead of Enfeeble in easy going areas for additional offensive capability. For high level characters with top tier equipment, Punishment is probably the best DPS curse if you choose a close-range melee skill. Other good curse choices if you have mana troubles are Warlord's Mark or Poacher's Mark, or use Assassin's Mark to further the critical strike capability of the build.

If you want to use a 4-link item for this, optional choices include the counter-attack when you are hit, Vengeance to apply your curse slightly more frequently, or Blind for additional defense.

Four linked socket item (example, boots):

Reckoning (red) - Curse on Hit (blue) - Enfeeble or Vulnerability or Elemental Weakness or Warlord's Mark or Poacher's Mark or Assassin's Mark (your choice) - Vengeance (red, optional) or Blind (green, optional)

In the section about Lightning Strike, you say:

When I click a skill slot to select the skill for it, there is now an option at the top "Always Attack Without Moving". Does that have the same effect?
