Shock - Unaffected, Inpulsa.
Freeze - Immune, Arctic Armour / Pantheon.
Ignite - Meh. Flask / Pantheon as needed.
Bleed - Flask.
Poison - Actually a risk. Using this for maps with Poison on Hit:

The flask enchant of "automatically use when poisoned" or whatever the wording is has worked for me. I don't think I've had a poison death since setting that up.

This is just my opinion, but these auto-use enchants are best put on flasks that consume fewer charges so that they're more likely to be available when you need them. Life flask or Diamond flask with Brewer's prefix can have your poison immunity ready to auto-apply again within 10-15 charges. The only time that really falls down is when you're dealing with a poison-heavy boss that has no trash to refill flask charges like Al-Hezmin, in which case either zerg him like me or git gud ;)

I know, I was relying on flasks before. But this is comfy AF. Especially for running labs.

Hey! Im following your CL PoB but im having trouble fitting in all the diffrent important stats from your items toghether with dex and res requierments. In your PoB you have +100 all res on jewels so its a bit confusing. Any tips? Thanks for the build!

Just get Resistance on gear? The jewels are to showcase you need to get it on gear, not that you can roll 100% all res jewels :D

As for stats and res, personally I was using a lot of points on the tree to make up for it early (Alira, Practical Application, Precision, Coordination...).

You should notice the POB itself has changed somewhat, you can get a better tree and results with the new pathing.

You might want to RTFM. It's mentioned so many times that I can only assume CantripN has repeated himself excessively in a vain attempt to stop people asking exactly this question.

That's really hella weird that people's missing THAT huge part of the build. Even seeing Three Dragons as a helmet don't make them question themselves "dooode! that's a curious thing going on - goota check smth deeper!"

I'm sorry if I'm missing something super obvious, but I am having one hell of a time with damage. I'm getting shocks and freezes(on crits only) but for some reason, I can't seem to get my DPS high at all. I'm currently at 221k at level 88, even with Inpulsa.

I would super appreciate if you could look at my items really quickly and see if you see anything glaring that I'm missing. I feel like I always struggle getting end game DPS and I'm never really sure why.

My POB if it matters: https://pastebin.com/kqB9JJTL

Thank you for the cool guide by the way. Extremely helpful!

First of all, join the discord, you'll get help from lots of other people too :)

Anyhow, here's what you can do to improve:

1 - Your actual DPS is closer to 1.3m Shaper DPS (https://pobb.in/mVSjubb5HUjh)
2 - You seem to spending a lot of points and auras for Mana, while you should be purely EB and casting from ES at this point.
3 - You're not using Wrath - Divine Blessing. Please do :)
4 - Get Mastery for +15% Max Shock. Your OoS is at 64% already (or would be if it could)
5 - Consider using Galvanic Field instead of OoS for just DPS and added clear. It can't Shock, but your CL does that fine, you can even add a crit mastery for +50% ailment effect.
6 - You don't have double curse, so your Arcanist Brand is constantly removing your Assassin's Mark! Don't use both if you don't have an extra curse.
7 - Basically, follow the guide and pob more closely. The pathing in particular. You're missing the whole Shadow area.
8 - Please for the love of god get Spell Suppression.
9 - Get better wands. Cast Speed, Multi, Spell Damage, Flat Lightning...
10 - Apex Mode is crucial for bossing with CL. Buy one.
11 - Get Exposure on Hit + Freeze Prolif gloves as implicits.
12 - Get an amulet with cast speed / multi / +1 lightning / +1 frenzy...
13 - Get a 3 Dragons with Lightning Leeched as Life.
14 - Replace Berek's Grip and the other ring for rings with DPS.
15 - Watcher's Eye is your friend :)
