I'm looking into buying a Loreweave but wondering how hard it is to color. Is it worth buying a 6 link and spamming chromes or just buying a plain one and using the jewellers method to get my colors?

Don't forget that you can also use Vorici in research to craft white sockets on it. I got 2 white sockets on mine, and I can freely change foritify gem with whatever I want.

hi TS thanks for sharing the guide. rerolling my arc trapper to this and it feels amazing.
i got some question. is it viable to replace cyclone into blade flurry? if yes how much aps do i need to get the sweet spot for coc and cospri. thanks

heres my gear for now

Spoiler

Hey! Blade flurry hits once per attack so you need double of what I state in the guide. 6 APS and 7.5 with 14%+ cooldown recovery speed.

whoa thats a quick reply. ill try the blade flurry version soon and report here.
thanks man

Adding a simple review:

Amazing build, can recommend if you have the budget, smooth clearspeed and boss killing started it two days ago just got level 88 and killed all shaper guardians on corrupted maps, atziri, izaro and few breachlords with it so far. Going for shaper in few mins but by experience i know it will go perfectly fine.

Sooo thank you CheeQu for providing this build :) keep up the great work

Based on the damage from the gifs, this build is uber elder viable right? Or would you need to switch up some stuff?

i saw that you rolled +%damage on craft on your belt but isnt +% elemental damage on attack skill better ?

Can anyone review my progress with this build and tell me what needs to be better? Looking at OP's build in PoB, his crit chance is WAY higher than mine. And I can't figure out why. The jewels he has adds crit multi, not chance. Unless I read them wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

% damage is better. The skills that do the dps in this build are ice nova, which is a spell not an attack.

Cyclone is an attack but does hardly any damage this build, it’s only there to proc the ice nova.

Other good belt options are flask effect and flask duration.

10% wont do anything for you. It has to be 14% or more to hit the correct cdr breakpoint (that’s all you need to know).
