Why are we choosing Mastermind of Discord ascendancy if we're not using Wave of Conviction to apply Exposure?

It is written in den gem setup part.

Wave of Conviction is a physical spell that converts 25% of its damage to fire and lightning damage respectively and applies 15% exposure for the highest elemental damage it deals. Adding some Lightning Damage to Spells together with lightning damage passives assures that this will be lightning exposure. Keep this gem at Level 1 to avoid dying to physical damage reflection.

With Call of the Brotherhood, it's better to use Hydrosphere instead to apply a 10% cold & lightning exposure. While a little bit weaker, it's more consistent and easier to keep up. Sadly Arc can chain to it, which steals some damage every second during bossfights.

Make sense I didn't see that item lol thanks.

Hi Enki, first off thank you for the guide! I have a question about the GG end game chest, what would be the best way to craft it?

I've also been looking into heading into CI for mid-late game. I just hit my first T6 map this morning and will be a little while before I can make any sort of real change. What I'm really looking at is the leech mechanic though. Right now with your build you should be leeching 56% ES per second, and that could easily bump up to 80% per second. There are many other tweaks I'd want to do, but I've never done a CI build and think it would be fun.

Update on the CI build: I was still dying quite a lot, something I attributed to me not being a particularly good player. I mean, I was doing everything right: moving around, activating the flasks, had Immortal Call on CoDT...

Oh, right.

Because I'm not a particularly good player For some reason, I mixed up the guard skills. So, I went and put Vaal Molten Shell on my CoDT setup...

...and the random deaths almost stopped (running T14+ maps right now). Damage isn't too shabby either, and this is not even her final form yet:

I'm running with a semi-suicidal Skin of the Lords with the wrong socket colors because it was the only one within my price range that had at least SOME synergy with a CI build. I didn't find a +1 weapon or amulet yet, and my helmet still has a random lab enchant. And this is the most fun I ever had with an elementalist in this game.

Here's the current build: https://pastebin.com/Jvp40THr

Could anyone give me any tips on what to upgrade next currently on red maps tier 11/12 Currenly working on a new wand with t2 spell lightning and t3 crit and cast speed clear speed is fine it's more single target and a little more survivability. P.S I'm trying to be SSF just on trade to help a buddy on his first time, I don't trade or sell items otherwise

Looking on the gear, first thing to pop in my eye are flasks. Second is jewel in belt. Both should be prety cheap upgrades. next the ring could use some love. At that point I would focus on getting the cold damage into equation/so level trinity if you haven´t already. Next focus would be 6L in my eyes, but may be questionable issue as you do not have access yet to best body armor base and 6L can be prety expensive to do manually.

Again-in SSF "autoexposure" helmet can be difficult to obtain, so run rituals as priority?
Also I am missing the arcane surge with movement skill-another missed 10 %more damage and mana sustain.

Just some things that pops in my eyes

Finally got a new chest with the much needed ring finally, just done eber lab so both survive and damage is increased nicely now hitting around 450k dps so far

What are good gear mods beyond the base gear in this guide? Im particularly thinking around defensives. I have about 3.5ex and havent bought anything so I think now’s a good time to use about half of my currency to gear up.

It's all in the guide on page 1

any idea what's my next upgrade should be?
and anybody has mana problem? i kinda have sometimes.
one last thing, does Ball Lightning work with this setup?

Made it to page 2022 in 2022.
Thanks for keeping this build up to date, I've tried it in the past and it's a solid build and I'm feeling like giving it another go now.

sorry

still some of the squishiest "starter" builds ive ever played. Fuck this. Stop putting your builds as starter when they get one shot by blue mobs

After two weeks of feedback that's the first time I hear something like this. Sounds more like a player issue.
