[EA] Spark Stormweaver - Mana Stacking Archmage MoM+CI - freezing/electrocution

"
Deer could you please create a new theard with your guide? Your knowledge is divided in to many pages, and following the first page someone risk to get confused. Maybe you can create your theard, copy the base of this one, so we can continue our experiments there..


I am far too lazy for that (AND it lowers my maps per hour! lol) for all that.

However, any questions or just general idea bouncing, my inbox is open and feel free to shoot me a message in game. I’m on basically always. If I’m afk I’ll message back.
So just a silly question. On the Kitoko's Gloves version what do you use for single target as you have a CoF set up for the 3 head version but the Kitoko's you only have spark as the only damage dealing skill there. Any recommends for single target would be helpful if there is a need for one!
Regarding ascendencies which one do you use? I'm playing shock Kitoko but can't figure out if it is better to go shock or chill
Is there an established upgrade order in the high budget range? Sitting on give or take 100 div with a decent roll ingenuity, decent breach rings, lvl 20 6l spark and 4.4k ES+4.8k mana. Where do people usually go from here? Overall better gear? Rarity? Endgame uniques?
I'm a little confused here. i have read the first ten pages of this thread and all the time "Three Dragons" is mentioned in combination with "Strike Twice" and "Shaper of Storms". On the other Hand there is "Heavy Snows" and "Shaper of Winter" skilled in the "End game cold: three dragons" Tree. Is that a mistake or is it intentional?

A few things here.

-overall better gear. Focusing on those mana rolls and JEWELS. jewels and pathing to more of them is HUGE.
-Dream shards. Huge. Get it now. Like huge huge.
-against the darkness jewel. You may need to rework your tree to take advantage but it’s huge with the max mana % per small passive. There’s opportunity here too to fix your resistance if you get x% resist per small passive also. If interested I can send you the tree I’m working with @ lvl 95.
-3 socket corrupt 600% + Trialmaster shield w/ 3 mana soul cores. Huge.
-melting Maelstorm mana flask. Absolutely insane for obvious reasons. Survivability and you can live inside of mana tempest.

Currently without dream shards, but with the rest of it, sitting at 5.8k es and 7.8k mana, and for what it’s worth (not much) 52k tooltip spark unbuffed.

You can probably get the shield (rolled well… important), soul cores and a gear upgrade or two (not sure what your gear looks like) for ~ 100 div. Possibly the jewel also. Haven’t priced them in a few days. Cumulatively probably your biggest upgrade, but, dream shards is reallllllly close.

This is exactly what I was hoping for, would love a tree, im currently just putting points into random ES nodes, feeling a bit naked without poe.ninja or PoB.

Probably going with the shield option since I get most of my Resists from my Breach rings so Dream Fragments would require a new set of gear anyway.
For Three Dragons, this is my tree right now (lvl 92):
https://poe2db.tw/us/passive-skill-tree/AAAABgcBe_0V_4UwyK3EphoioxxOmSSvR3aKhNY8MAjONck5SiWqAgWYfe5j4W4tmLueoZwaOwB0Iai246o4HyMFvDf05-LBaBTCcVEnX-_rD7EydmdPPg2DXx0AcdyIGAWZPaardXoGp0m9qLNeqBwfGJAQPQxr6lOcE0PXPeKgtiShL-pt4bCEelWvkIJrYw_drEKG4-j0DKrH8LM91PmtC8EvNOEPNjP75aX01XEvaRkidfl3SNst2JqPxoC12vMWlFZ86SevDe9hwo4bSmQS3OCpcjiAt5lwrn0nkwkfZhexBwyzjw97jvvaDizcHe_bVeA4bhNfWLlNCgAA

For the remaining levels I'm probably just going to pick leftover ES nodes. I would want to get Icebreaker for the Freeze Threshold, but I don't think it's worth 6 points and the Charm is working fine for now.

Right now sitting at 5077 ES, 4202 Mana, 21.4k Spark tooltip without Mana Tempest. None of the stuff I bought costed more than 3 divs, so fairly low investment.

I haven't been using any trigger gems for a while. With Everlasting Gaze, you need all that Spirit on your chest. If my chest had Spirit, I might run CoF, but it should only really matter for pack clearing and Spark alone is plenty enough for that. Right now I'm not even running Conductivity, just Spark, Orb of Storms, and Mana Tempest + Archmage as buff.

Having some struggles in maps, guessing in know what the advice is but want to confirm:

T1's are probably a 40% failure rate for me, often ripping to either beyond mobs or the initial spawn wave of a breach. Level 70, 1k hp, 1.6k ES, 1K mana, resists are NOT capped (48/27/69/38). Standing in town i've got 380 es/s, 158mana/sec, and 1500 spark dps. Running a +4 staff right now so thats a lvl 18 spark.

Heres my tree: https://poe2db.tw/us/passive-skill-tree/AAAABgcBXv0VIqMcTpkkEoNJndn_Gh7H8FcqDKro9DXJCM4SjDlKJapGNbHS-i7rRt5n4W6FCnuc5_A-YaCpXxK9xTmTwFOkXSGomH0tmLueoZwaOwB0tuPn4sFoFMJxUe_r9NUt2LXajhsnkwyzrn2ZcIC3Diz72nuOjw9hwkjb-XcidWyJjcXZnGkZ2QJW_zrrcS8-DYNfcdyIGAWZveoaXPKqq3V6Br2oqByQED0Ma-poc9c94qDBgRPgQNSWhx5hAAA=

I'm running archmage and don't currently feel like i've got mana problems, but i'm fairly certain i can't enable MOM yet because my ES is so often depleted. I have nowhere near the currency to obtain a gaze. I also dont really feel like my DPS is high enough as i regularly spend more than a few seconds on any given pack of mobs.


Should i be backing out all the ES shield stuff and grabbing eldritch battery to try and more aggressively stack mana and pick up intensity asap?

Any help is appreciated
Since without enough damage it's harder to do perma shock...How much DPS do you think the Spark tooltip should mark to make it worth making the jump from Three Dragons (cold) to Kitokos (shock)
