Regarding Vaal Pact nerf - no biggie for this build. The playstyle is to stay at range and avoid facetanking damage, and for reflect I tried to avoid these manually/use my totem but if you end up hitting reflect and don't evade/dodge it will one shot you anyway as a single projectile can do up to 85k hit damage vs a 75% light res enemy.

The only question would be if Damage on Full Life is still worth it.

For how I play the answer would be YES. But let's see if we can mix it up. If you want to make the below changes it would be easier to use Belly of the Beast because rechroming EV chest to swap out Damage on Full Life is a pain, and Belly gives some other very nice benefits:

- Drop Vaal Pact area = 5 points (bridge to Shadow instead by Nullification)
- Put 4 points into Throatseeker crit multiplier (very high damage buff)
- You have 1 spare point you can put somewhere else
- Swap to Belly of the Beast chest
- Take off Damage on Full Life gem
- Socket Lightning Penetration instead
- On Dagger put Blood Rage + Enhance

This gives you:
- More life than original build
- Much faster regen from life flasks than original build
- About 30k-40k higher DPS than original build
- And 1 extra point to spare
- Consistent DPS through all fights

What do you lose after instant leech?:
- If you had chest had lots of res you may need to re-balance
- If you had high EV chest you will lose some EV of course
- You also have to deal with some small degen from Blood Rage but no big deal since we clear so quickly - easily overcome by either attacking something or using a life flask. Putting BR on dagger will also allow to easily turn it off with weapon swap.

How much better is avatar of the chase vs veil? Does it bother you the loss of immunity to status while phsaing (which is on constantly anyway)? How much more damage are you getting from chase vs silver flask? Whats the upsides and downsides?

Hi Cery. I'm stuck at level 80 due to work but come 3.1 I will be running your Lightning Strike build. It's a pity shock isn't worth investing in as would love to work Innervate into this build and a couple of the 3.1 unique items which are shock based. Basically I'm asking you if shock really isn't worth using. Could a shock focused version be viable, if only for clearing map mobs rather than farming bosses?

Thanks. Any way you could make a pastebin link for your whole character for Path Of Building, or set your profile public so we can import your character into the builder directly and mess with it. PoB can calculate projectile dmg as well.
