Hey Wallach, thank you for this amazing guide! Will you update it when patch notes are out?

Will HFT Levelling be viable since consecreated ground crit chance has been removed? What are alternatives?

That change really doesn't matter hardly at all for leveling purposes.

Looks like Controlled Destruction is no longer usable for this build after the nerf.

Spell Totem:

Supported Skills now deal 28-24% less Damage (previously 35-26%).
Spells Cast by Totem now have 40% less Cast Speed (previously 30%).

was fun for couple of seasons... seems i have to look for a new strong build... to many nerfs

The Cold Conduction notable no longer grants “Enemies Chilled by your Hits are Shocked” or “Enemies Shocked by your Hits are Chilled.” It now grants “25% increased Effect of Lightning Ailments against Chilled Enemies” and “25% increased Effect of Cold Ailments against Shocked Enemies”.

BIG OOF

Simulated PoB for 3.15, my end game version of the build:
https://pastebin.com/iyAHfkNK

When from 15m (with hh) Sirus DPS to 7m Sirus DPS.
9m Sirus DPS with Coward's Legacy.

This is a 50% damage nerf.

The build is still extremely good with min-max, but the early mapping is probably gonna suck big time now, can't really just recommend it anymore for league start.

Still amazing clear speed and decent bossing.

I would say this build got hit less hard than most others. You don't need that much damage to completely steamroll maps, I don't think the nerfs will affect this as a league starter at all.

What do you think looks stronger if you're going to switch to something else?

Anyone gonna try this with the new Frozen Orb skill?
