Do you guys even read the guide?
The tree pretty much requires level 90.

You won't have enough ES on low level and you will miss alot of damage, i recommend you playing a life based build to level 90+, level your gems and get some currency before switching to LL!

Just keep leveling and get an imbued wand insteade of prophecy, the attack speed makes a worl of difference. Other than that well, use empower for disci and wrath, and get your gems to level 20.

U dont need to level to 90 with life based build lol...just get decent wand, u got shavs, CoE and shield, u can switch to it as soon as u can use shavs (lvl 68), just stay safe in party while mapping

Dime,

I think it's worth a try, but it would have to be a really well rolled one to have a chance at beating other jewels. I don't have one to try either unfortunately, but they are getting pretty cheap now.

I think it would be especially good with headhunter, which I have been using recently. Some of the mods you gain are auras and count as buffs, making mantra of flames provide more damage as well.

The fact that mantra of flames adds flat elemental damage is also interesting, because we have a lot of increased % elemental damage, spell damage and projectile damage which all scale for the flat elemental we deal with auras and heralds.

Did someone try dropping the life on hit nodes and the life reg? You can replace them with jewels that would save some points.

I did consider it for a while but there aren't that many good dps nodes available on the tree at the moment, so focusing dps stats on jewels is a better idea. If I had more points, I would pick up the jewel node north east of the scion start, take the life + ES nodes there and use energy from within to get an additional 32% ES.

Hmm, Sniper, Elder Power, Ballistic Mastery seem legit.

Another question, what is the benefit of phys wands over pure ele? As I see nobody is using HoA/Hatred and you didn't spec for Elder Power.

The interest for phys wands was always due to physical leech, and that some of the nodes transform your phys damage to elemental damage. Phys damage also generally does more damage since mobs often resist various elements.

All the nodes you mentioned are mostly weaker than a 2 stat jewel. Also, if you want life on hit or life regen on a jewel, you need to get a crimson jewel, which can't spawn wand attack speed or spell damage mods, etc. Lust for carnage also gives nice phys leech so it's good to have around.
