Not sure what you mean by they cap at 16+, my arsonists are currently lvl 19 and removing even 1 level shows a reduction in dps.

Arcane surge is also useless if you are an infernalist and don't have mana.

Mana regen

chaos resistance for alter flesh
Sorry to be dumb, what skill is raging spirits. I can't find it :(
You get it from an uncut spirit gem, it's in the sorceress category
I am using this build having nearly quit twice.

This build is a dream - thank you for posting it. Be really good to see a development guide in steps of 10 levels so people can see what do get with their gems etc - but it’s just great fun.

Highly highly recommended.
I'm giving this build a shot, is there a skill tree somewhere? Or do we just pause the video when you talk about retaking the energy shield nodes?
