@YJEN
I only have an Elder Essence Worm, got it by scour chancing Elder Unset Rings. Dovahsith has made a post about this on page 525. I'd only recommend MotS with an Elder Essence Worm, the stun resistance part isn't as useful as it's only against spells.
Hypo requires additional investment to work reliably and can still be somewhat countered by elemental ailment avoidance mapmod, therefore it's the 6th link. But if you really can't get 5B on a 5L then just go with Hypo, check in PoB which support gem gives the least damage in comparison. I think it should be Added Lightning Damage.
@pkirill & bro82
It only shows lower damage ingame since penetration isn't affecting the tooltip, in reality it should be pretty close, if not better than a Catalyst. You can import your character to PoB and compare weapons there, i'd recommend to check it against "Shaper/Guardians" setting to get some more relevant DPS values.
Use this information and the stats listed in the gear section to look up some weapons in trade, then compare them in PoB.
@phoenixone
The others have already answered why we don't use it, so i'd only like to add that you simply drop it once you gear for maps and put in the full gem setup.
@kizzderose
Vendor recipe also doesn't work with corrupted gems. Only way to get a 20% Vaal Arc would be corrupting a 20/20 Arc, or getting it drop from a Delve or Vaal Zone.
You can level six Arc gems with you in your second weapon slot, then recipe them to 20% and vaal once they're at 20/20, this takes some time tho but you may end up with a few 20/20 Vaal Arcs or 21/20 Arcs to use/sell.
@midnightL
I wouldn't recommend it, the speed gained from Ahn's coupled with the life and most importantly, +3 max res is just too good. I use Shield Charge as it's still more responsive and can be used to gain Fortify, unlike Flame Dash, which is only to save time by crossing ledges and stuff.
Multiple CwDt is no problem, it's multiple copies of the same gem that would be difficult to trigger. Each spell has its own 250ms cooldown when linked to CwDt, which counts for all copies of that gem even if only one was triggered. The different levels are simply to have some better effect from Enfeeble. Assassin's Mark is useless for us and would just override Enfeeble due to curse limit.
@MrWonderful99
Not exactly worth it, the opportunity cost is giving up a life slot and three additional gem slots while also having to recast five golems instead of two whenever they die.
@Ciukutus
Resistances are easy to come by, Alira is only ever worth it for crit builds to get that extra crit multi.

Just going to start this game again after a few months inactive
is this a good HC build? i mean i used to play only totems and RF not sure if this is any safe build in hc? |

" Thanks, i'll do that! @Cheydinhal: I'm only Lvl 61 so far so i can't talk about endgame, but until now i'd say it's viable. I'm most of the time a pretty reckless player, jumping right into the group of enemies without a second thought etc and so far i only died twice. But these deaths were in the mine in those rare vaal city chambers because i didn't know how they work (still don't know exactly when it gets brighter or darker :/ ) But generally you're pretty safe because arc has a pretty long range, so in harder fights you can easily go to distance and still hit the enemy (like in the Izaro-fights in lab). I'd say give it a try :) Last edited by kizzderose#1563 on Sep 7, 2018, 4:52:59 PM

Sorry - i couldnt find a place where it lists which stats to prioritize
I amm trying to decide between more spell power or more cast speed? is there a post that ranks stats? apologies - i just started in 3.4 with this build |

Can Ypu sugest a gem that would replace Hypothermia ? Is there any Lightning equivalent of that ?
|
|
" If you have a leveled Empower, then that. Efficacy or Faster Casting else, I think Efficacy is slightly better. That assumes you use a 6L and you have the rest of the blue gems in. |
|
|
And WHat about Chain support ?

i so far love the build and almost at 90 depth is delve with lvl 78 or so but wanna ask if there is more updates for build gear wise to make it more tank or get the dps up to 1m and more life leech at some point as i feel at times its very sqeeshy
