What I don't understand: we use controlled destruction support causing 100% reduced critical strike chance and still puting points in passive tree in Spell Critical Chance nodes. The chance to deal Critical strike is still at 5%.

Quoting this for visibility, because I've been wondering about it myself.

Since the crit chance loss from controlled destruction doesn't apply to the base chance the net loss is actually really small, with diamond flask up it can mean dropping from like 90% effective crit down to like 83%, with 5 totems all rolling their own chance to crit, it's really not noticeable.

Had no idea void battery was so expensive... Is there a go-to unique wand for decent DPS in early mapping that I can just duel-wield until I save up enough for void battery or Shim?

I played this build in Incursion, so I knew it's amazing league starter and can also do all bosses with little to none investment...
Currently at delve lvl 321+ and it's easy with rly little investment.
Gear:

Pantheon:full upgrade Arakaali and Shakari
Shaper down, Red elder down - waiting for some upgrades to do uber elder.

Advice for all of you: let totems do the work - don't charge/dash/warp into mobs.

For these asking best craftable weapons is something like this(POB stats):

Also if you want to do realy deep delves you'll have to min-max it, i mean - shaper helmet with enchant and added lightning to spell, etc...

1) Can anyone explain why does everyone count their DPS in POB as "monsters are shocked" while using Elemental Focus gem (spell unable to apply elemental status ailments)? Or totems can still shock while having this gem?

2) Any suggestions on gear improvements?
