Hey, I Cant Decide btw ED or Vortex.. whats the different btw those 2 builds ? and what is in the long term stronger ?

Greetings

Hello. Are you looking at ED Spellslinger (Chaosslinger) or self-cast ED Trickster?

From a general standpoint, I would say ED is tankier than this build, but has less damage. The life regeneration provided from ED is absolutely insane (to the point of broken). While this build doesn't have a strong sustain like ED, it still provides some pretty good defenses with Vile Bastion/Wicked Ward and inherent chill on all enemies, but it won't let you facetank Kosis or Sirus. Both builds have a near-equivalent clear speed and will get you to red maps/Sirus, but ED will be a safer option if you prefer slamming your face into walls.

Make sure you factor in the playability of the build- I personally don't enjoy the playstyle of ED/Contagion, despite it being insanely good.

Thanks for the guide! Thats exactly what i was looking for <3
Could you add the used Flasks in the Pob? or just list them here :)
Thanks in advance! Have a good League start <3

Not a problem, hope everything goes well for you with league launch!

Flasks in terms of priority:

#1: Quicksilver
#2: Rumi's concoction
#3: Cinderswallow Urn
#4: Sorrow of the Divine
#5: Utility flask. This can be Jade/Granite/Resitances.

Dang, that's weird- it works for me, but I'm also using the POB fork. Let me see if I can get a vanilla POB real quick.

This one should work, sorry about that.

Why do you take the cold damage nodes on your lvl 38 levelling tree when you say you level with lightning skills on SS ? Again, I'm missing something.

Oversight on my part when making the leveling tree. Only grab the cold nodes if you're going to be leveling with the build with the cold DoT setups. Instead, you can fill out % spell damage/spell block in the middle of the witch tree. Overall, it doesn't really affect the speed/efficiency of the build if you grab the cold damage nodes at the top while leveling with lightning spells. Once you get spellslinger rolling with Arc + WoC, everything dies in 1-2 shots.
