Is a 5 link Shavrones the tiping point to switch from CI to LL. Which gems would you take out ( i am running, Icicle, pierce, Awakened cold pen, Trap and mine damage, controlled destruction, swift assembly.
Thx
Yeah the 5 link is fine for Ball Lightning or pyro. I wouldnt switch until a 6 link for Icicle though.
Final gem to drop would be probably pierce and pick up pierce on the tree.

G'day guys, on my char Delerious_Daryl i am using a very similar build but am getting frustrated with being way too squishy.
I cannot do Delerium content, Metamorph content, Legion encounters, Jun mission can be a challenge and i just ignore Alva.
I am at a delve depth of around 45 which is as low as i can go at present.
Very unhappy with my build and would be quite willing to respec if you think this build could be tankier.
The build has hardly any defence at all, 5% evasion is it.
6200 ES with Discipline continually gets 1 shot.
I understand i am probably a bad player but really need help here.
Thanks and sorry for the whinge.
Few things stand out:
1. Life flasks on ES build = bad. Pick up two more defensive flasks
2. Use a prism guardian - will net gain ES for you and will also have a lot more DPS
3. Rings need some work

If ur not a rly experianced player who knows how to make a lot of currency the first week in a league its not recommended to start with a CI/LL build.
I would recommend u to buy stuff for a life based build and collecting equip for the low life verion on the side (or farm the currency to obtain it).
We talk here about multiple 1-3 Exalts for every slot for the LL Version....compared to that a life build needs only about 3-4 EX total to run T16 maps without problems.
U can take a look on my profile for a life based miner example....can recommend Ball Lightning.
Disagree with that quite a bit. CI can get 8-9k ES with less than 1 ex invested very easily.
Also has more DPS than the life version.
LL is more expensive, but even a 5 link shavs with prism guardian is going to double the dps you would get out of the life version.
This is just straight bad advice. Going life on the right side of the tree is silly.

I have about 10 ex right now. Thinking about playing this build as my second char. Could buy a Shav for 6.5ex and some low level other stuff. Do you think it is enough to farm red maps easy?
As I understood it - I go for life while leveling and hit full ES when in Endgame with the Shavronnes right? :)
Yup, that is more than enough. I'm on t16s at the moment with less than 3ex spent total.

Thanks for the logical reply CroDanZ.
It looks like i tried to walk before learning how to crawl.
No, you were correct, but it may be a play-style issue. Switching over to life, where you have less EHP isnt going to help.
Check my above reply.

BL tree updated for 3.10 -
https://pastebin.com/XMB8yG1s
Still messing around with cluster jewels. The flat ES ones are good, but the trap and mine one is pretty lackluster.
Still toying around with an aura effectiveness one as well, will update that when I have one that is an upgrade.

I got ripped off. Someone sold me a Shav for 5ex but it wasnt 6linked and I was stupid enough to fall for it. Quiet sad now bc I never had that much money before. I am left with 4 Ex and my char is at 26 atm. Could you post your gear to help me what to buy from the last currency I have? This would be very nice.

Yes, I'd play either BL or Pyroclast, whichever floats your boat, until you have better gear as both will clear T16 A8 on a 5 link whereas icicle really needs the 6th link to feel good.
