If I understood correctly, arc is not going to be nerfed, so am I right to think that this build is still ok for Delve?
Possibly. We'll know for sure when the patch notes come out tomorrow. We do know that LW (and Flame Dash as well) will get a boost though so movement and clearing should be a bit faster
would this be the build to follow tree wise if i wish to do 2 sets of poet? one set being lightning warp and arc, second set being lightning ball for damage.
i want to try and make a budget version to use till i farm the currency for the late game gear. is this possible?
i wanna give this idea a try for next league but i dont want to waste my time if its impossible to pull off on a budget :/
Its is definitely possible as arc/warp is more than enough for map clearing. I would however advise buying 3 to have the 3rd equipped with BL for boss killing for atlas progression. When the arc/warp levels are low they may not be the most comfortable for bosses/single target.
Personally I would just level warp in the alt wep slot and not use it till I have 3-4 pens. Just play with Arc/Bl setup for your clear and boss killing like a wander with high movement speed without QoTF. Use multiple adrenaline quick silver and run zoom zoom.
I dont think its a budget build atleast to start with. But for what it does for the investment I think its one of the most bang for buck build, if Arc is not nerfed (atleast not much) this patch. by the time you hit 94. This build will have more than earned at least 2-3 times its complete investment.
besides the 3 poets, is anything else required that makes it not "budget"?
i just need to know what exactly is a requirement at the bare minimum to use the build and if this tree is the tree i would follow since all im really doing is adding in a 2nd set of poets for bossing vs just using arc for clearing <3
The Inpulsa, (around 1ex in the beginning)
Mind of the council ( Bought it for 300c in flashback)
Choir of Storms (bought it for 100c flashback)
In that order, are the next most expensive items. by the time you complete t1-t5 you should have enough to buy an Inpulsa, and by the end of Yellow maps and early reds you should easily have currency for the other 2 as well.
Depending on how good your starting char is you might be able to have most of these already in your stash by the time you decide to make your PP Arc/BL Elementalist.

Hope they don't touch Inpulsa and elementalist in any -ve way.
If things go bad I will still try and make a BL build somehow. BL is just an underrated skill for Single Target. Might even go for Heiro BL Totems if Elementalist/Arc/Inpulsa are gutted.

I had so much fun with this build in Incursion I'm not sure how to follow it up. I did try the Low Life variation on an old char in Standard to see how it worked and it's great as well. Better single target for sure. Now that the leagues merged into Standard I was able to get all my gear to use with that old char. Tried a T16 and just melted Phoenix (Video).
Whatever army I have, I'll lead against them...
...until I've won or I'm dead.

There is an 'addition' to passive tree (witch area) which I think is great:
"
There is a new Mana cluster just above the Deep Wisdom notable which grants 31% increased Maximum Mana, 20% increased Mana Regeneration Rate, 20% increased Mana Recovery from Flasks, and 2 Mana Regenerated per second split across 2 small passives and the Arcane Will notable.
Once you switch to MoM, I think this will go nicely alongside "Inspiration" node.
Also... (I'm thinking), since 'Mind of the Council' helmet gives '30% increased maximum mana', will this addition to witch area passive tree, make the Mind of the Council helmet little less required for the MoM version of the build? ...OR ...maybe we can use all 3 ('Inspiration' node, (new 3.4 mana node), and Mind of the Council helmet) together, but take out some other passive points?
Would like to hear OP (dariidar) comment on this. :)
