is the passive tree current?

Hi just updated it... it was a bit broken..

thanks mate, great build, appriciate the update!

Currently playing this build. Really not too bad! Very fun and effective in the Delve. Level 47 at 6600 DPS. Do you have any recommendations on level or alt end game weapons?

What you think of using stormfire ring?
What about using a belly of the beast, loreweave or inpulsa?

Stormfire - we do not do lightning damage so it would not really help us
Loreweave & Belly: are decent option for this build with higher budget

Hi, new player here I'm trying out this build and really enjoying leveling with it. Currently while leveling I'm finding Fireball more useful for single target damage, but I only have Lesser Multiple Projectile Support on Magma orb - any leveling advice you can provide would be helpful.

My main question though is why does the build take the Elemental Overload node? I may not understand how the crit chance works with the additional projectiles, so please explain if you can. Also, it seems like the Sniper node in the Shadow area is a good one pick up as well, correct?

For single target you switch Greater Multiple Projectiles with Slower Projectiles and then Magma Orb will melt bosses.

Elemental Overload just boost dps by about 1/4 ... you crit and then you get the EO buff. More less it is always active.

My best leveling advice is... if you feel too weak... grind some levels & gear in some safe area and after that leveling will feel easy again.

Singularity for leveling from lvl 62 (I think) and budget option until you get
Doryani's Catalyst (endgame weapon)

I recommend, before you can afford to buy an expensive ring with warlord's mark, try to buy this, cost just 1-2 chaos, put inside warlord's skill, now your hits always curse enemies

In my case, before I get a Warlord's Mark ring, I ran a 3L Herald of Thunder + Curse on Hit + Warlord's Mark combo. Helps sustain before you can afford an Elder ring.

On a side note, the new sceptre seems to be a decent poor man's alternative before you can afford a Doryani. This shield rocks too as a budget alternative.

Recent bought that new sceptre and it is pretty great, it's actually better than doryani in PoB for me, is doryani used for it's ele leech mostly?

Bought cerberus limb + lioneye's remorse so i can leech with the cerberus limb becouse the shield have 30% chance to block, i feel this is pretty good.

Been a while since I've tried a caster build but I'm having a lot of fun with this one. Good call on saying to get the threshold jewels in as soon as possible, they make life way easier before you can get GMP in.

Outside of the ignite DPS, is there a reason we're taking Beacon of Ruin over Paragon of Calamity in the ascendancy? It seems like a pretty small damage hit to take for immunity to elemental damage reflect and some elemental leech, plus an occasional buff to damage/defenses.

I have the same doubt, I think paragon + liege are better than shaper > beacon... But idk how much is the difference.

EDIT: if we use mokou's embrace we get hit by fire damage so we get +20% attack/cast speed +20% fire damage with the ring, + 40% damage by paragon ... it seems a good point

Well guys... I thought about Paragon of Calamity myself. I had enough currency so more or less tried every possible combination.

I really think you guys miss the point why Beacon of Ruin is so so strong. We only need a jewel with cold & lightning damage (I used herald of thunder) to spells to get:
> enemies take 20% more damage
> enemies are slowed by
> +20% more damage with ignites
An of course Elemental ailments spread to nearby enemies is a massiv boost to clear speed. Of course you free to try things out and maybe you find a better setup :)
