Any suggestions what changes I can make to my Helmet Gem-Links since i already get Power Charges from Power Siphon?.
I would assume just increased crit or Lightning pen.
how is power siphon? I was thinking of using it, but the lgoh from barrage seems better. Though now that I'm using paragon it might be worth dropping it since I wont need the lgoh as much.

PS is a much better choice in my opinion since you can still use LGOH with it. It has 8 projectiles at max level so also no need for GMP. Since it also has built in Culling you can also drop Culling Strike. It has the same APS as Barrage and you get a near 100% up-time of power charges so you can drop Orb of Storms setup for something more defensive like a Herald + Arctic Armor + Enlighten 4. Right now I'm using PS -> Blind -> Faster Attacks -> Addition Accuracy -> LGOH.

I guess that makes sense. I might give it a try, but I would have to recolor my inpulsa and idt I really want to bother with that atm.

Yeah, im taking out GMP and putting in something else, dunno what.
Im thinking of dropping orb of storms gem link entirely since i mostly use this build for speed clearing up to t15 and bosses melt anyways. Im just not sure what to put in the empty slots.

LiKe I said, if you drop Orb of Storms you can do something about the lack of physical mitigation we have by putting Herald + Arctic Armor + Enlighten Level 4 in Helmet. That way your available mana stays about the same but you pick up some much needed physical defense. Or if you wanted to go for more DPS you could probably run Herald of Thunder + Herald of Ice + Enlighten 4. Being able to drop Orb of Storms opens up some interesting possibilities.
As for dropping GMP, try Blind for even more defense.

So I've been playing with the conductivity/wrath/paragon of calamity for a bit. Maybe it's the gin talking here, but i don't necessarily think it's better. Damage seems a little slower. Great i don't have to deal with reflect elemental...meh.
I don't know, what do you guys find?
It very well may be less DPS for single target, I haven't actually checked the numbers. It feels almost the same to me though or at least very close. I wasn't melting guardians before or after the change so having the no reflect seems like an advantage at my current level and trying to level up. After a few beers in the evening I usually stop checking the map mods when in a group and I hate the rips to the reflect. The Indigo variation did seem to have way more DPS against single target but it felt unbalanced with a lack of survivability so I'm not going back to that setup.
So, I really don't think it's "better" but it does add some QoL.
In regards to indigo version.
The damage and survivability both increase drastically under low life conditions, if you get to ll by utilizing wrath in essence paired with artic Armour on blood magic, plus a very low levelled clarity to tweak to just 35%.
Jumping around via warp is considered standing still, so antics hefty physical reduction is always in play and when you do need a short sprint, you have chilled ground to give breathing room.
Pair that with a watchers eye that gives es as a portion of mana as your second bonus and your good as gold.
Minor tree tweaks and all have to be made of course, but we'll worth the effort.

That's what I was thinking of doing next league or in standard when this league ends - Something like This build. Wish I had the time to try out more variations right away.

hey! thanks for checking out my build. I would love if some of you could come over and bump my thread a bit. :/ Feels kinda weird seeing talk about it in other threads ^^'. I guess I am just a bit starved for attention. :P
But yeah - I dont want to brag to much but I think my version of this build is just better in every way. Damage, sustain, tanky-ness. If any of you have questions or just want to tell me how terrible a person I am for hijacking this thread feel free to do so in my fred. :P

Anyhow! Have a good one!

Jesus Christ ^^ how do you think you can link gear in this forum? (hint: by having it and clicking on it in your profile.) Also there are videos up.
But *fine* - I'll make my character tab public. Just for you.
