Never got a reply to my post, so just gonna try again.

Why do we not take the Lightning Walker node in passives? It's only 2 points away from what the build already has, and as your build says, Lightning over cast speed, right? I think we'd do more if we go for the Lightning Walker and ditch the 2 nodes in the dex side for attack & cast speed (the extra resist is just bonus).

I'm having a hard time nailing a good 6l right now.

I've replied to you on page 466. The lightning > cast speed only counts for jewels, and only because attack & cast speed mod has even higher priority.

Oh I scrolled through it and didn't see it. Hm... Sorry D:

Any hints on finding the flasks? Kinda broke to buy them, and need to run cruel labs soon.

Hey. Could you recommend what to put in 5 link 6 blue socket inpulsa while im farming for a 6 linked 5b/1r?

I put clarity into unlinked socket but then i have a spare socket on head with cwdt+vortex+dash (im still using lightning warp but same thing).

Would "increased area of effect support" work on vortex?

Hi. My character is now public. I dont rly understand the importance of the flasknodes in the skilltree, so i skipped those.
Thanks .

Bossebatong: The flask nodes are important because flasks boost your damage (sulphur 40% more dam) and reduce incoming damage (basalt). So having them faster up is really nice.

aka_Celador: I have Arc/Vaal Arc - Spell Echo - Add Lightning - Lightning Pen - Controlled Destruction. Later, when I have my other Impulsa linked (around 500 Fusings , but no luck yet) I´ll put Empower into the red one to boost the five blue gems.

SinfulC: For the unique flasks you could use orbs of chance if you have the proper bases.
The magic ones can be made with orbs of alteration. Spam them until the prefix and suffix match your needs.

What do you think about "Choir of the Storm"?

@SinfulC: You will get all base flasks except for the Eternal Life flask through quests, the unique choices are optional so buy them whenever you can afford.

@aka_Celador: Yeah, Inc Aoe would give you some bigger chill area, or you can simply choose to use a second CwDt spell there.

@Bossebatong: Flasks and Flask nodes are your biggest improvement potential there. Flasks provide us both a big survivability and damage boost, through the flask nodes and flask duration on belt we try to maximize this boost. Replace the Mana Flask with a Wise Oak, one of the Life Flasks with a Basalt Flask of Staunching and the Quicksilver Flask with a Silver Flask.
Other than that all you could do is trying to get the right enchants, a belt with flask duration and +1 corruptions on Vaal Arc and Empower.

@jazersenpai: It's alright, but way too expensive for us. A rare amulet can give a similar boost plus life on top for cheaper.

I just had a look at this in Path of Building:

1. Using 2 points to allocate "Lightning Walker" results in a 4.0% Average Hit/DPS gain.
2. Using 3 points to allocate the 3 "Attack and Cast Speed" nodes results in a 6.5% Average Hit/DPS gain.
3. Using 2 points to allocate "Lightning Walker" and 1 point to allocate "Attack and Cast Speed" would thus seemingly result in 4.0% + 2.3% = 6.3% Average Hit/DPS gain

In my case, using option 3, my Average Hit goes up by about 1K (32K -> 33K), but Total DPS goes down about 0.2K (133K -> 132.8) due to the difference in cast rate, as I assume the Crit Chance then comes into play. If I had a higher Crit Chance I imagine the difference would be larger.

Is it possible to actually clear any end game content with this build? i (think) i have good items but i still die from 1 rock at minotaur battle so is there anyway to clear guardian+ levels?
