hi there. Awesome detailed guide with a lot of details.
so after your guide for the begginig, whats next? probably the questions has been asked and also in the guide its been said that final version wouldn't be posted there, so where?
Okay this might be kind of a silly question but i'm at that point where i cant figure it out myself. So i kindly ask for some help here.
I have got the highend setup with my witch and i am trying to figure out whether its worth using empower lvl 4 or not.
In game i exchange Increased Critical Strikes for Empower lvl 4 and on the arc spell it shows i lose around 35k dps.
In Pob on the other hand when replacing the gem it shows a significant boost for almost 150k total dps.
Do i follow POB's recommendations and use Empower even though in game it shows a significant dps loss?
Thanks in advance!
Edit : this is my pob if you want to have a look

Anybody help, please. For Arc 3 there's a directive - "Get Lightning Penetration and link it to Arc" but I have a problem - I already have Arcane Surge and Added lightning damage linked to Arc in the wand. Should I substitute one of these gems?

This is normal, POB damage is less wrong then tooltip dmg.

If you can find a 4-link you can run them all together. If not, I'd suggest linking it instead of arcane surge and run the surge with your movement skill or something.
I've been running it on my arc witch, and It's going pretty great, trying to figure out how to get the awakened gems without paying 40-50+ EX.
Problem is certain bosses through legion, and especially CORE absolutely MURDER me. I have no idea how to get passed that, I don't know if it's physical damage, or what D:
Any suggestions?

I managed to get to the first sirius fight after. Am I almost ready to go, or should I invest more in improving the character before atempting the fight?

I just got a really, really lucky drop in a map. I'm a little nervous about messing it up. A +3 To Lightning Spell Skill Gems is about a 1 in 1000 chance.
It also has a tier 3 intelligence suffix which isn't exactly trash, but it's a slot that might get something more useful.
I'm looking for advice on what to do next to craft it.
I have 5 link 6 socketed it. Got all to blue (took about 260 chromas, I got three all red before I got the all blue)
I already spent about 500 alts on another staff until this dropped.
What should I do next?
I only have 3 exalts and one set of creatures for a beastcraft Split-an-item.
I'm thinking I regal it next and hope for the best, then exalt it if nothing terrible came in. If I get something bad then beastcraft split the staff and regal/exalt again.
Hopefully I can save 2 exalts for can have multiple crafted mods. I need to go farm and learn that recipe still.

I'm a bit of a noob so take this as probably incorrect but maybe look into it... A couple of thoughts from what I can see of your profile on your forum account:
I'd swap that Hypnotic eye which is not appropriate for your build (you don't want any extra phys, same goes for your rustic sash belt) for a corrupted Cobalt one with life, crit strike, energy shield, and corrupted blood cannot be inflicted on you corruption.
You don't have the leach lightning damage as energy shield node, hope you have a lot of other ES regen somewhere else since it's your pre-life pool as well as your "mana" pool. Especially when you haven't taken the Zealot's Oath node either. So your energy shield recharge is working quite differently to the intent of the build.
Run the numbers on your cluster jewels, you might be better off trimming those back a bit to get that lightning damage leach into ES back.
