I'm currently working on this build, and I'm excited to give it a go. Its been a very long time since I've played and I'm glad to find something that won't require a ton of gear hunting to work.

Glad you stopped here, hope you enjoy it.

Hey Talfus. Wanna thank you for the constant updates on your guide. Just few questions regarding the builds future.

1. Cybils claw melted everything till Lvl70 maps. But lately I got the feeling that I req more dmg output. Do u suggest changing those 2 wpns at lvl 85+ for decent rolled wands etc. Mean true the life leech gone gonna be a big loss.

2. Also noticed its getting harder to stay alive lately so I need to be extra careful specialy towards reflect mobs or random criters so I can't faceroll anymore like I used to. Mean I am res capped but still I can't relax anymore when doing runs. Do u plan to do any unique gear changes towards endgame or is the current gear setup fine till 90+. Maybe its just me.

3. I know its a cheap budged build. So regarding my first 2 questions: Is it possible to make a high budget version of this build towards endgame.

Mean it could be my lack of expirience afterall. Still having fun playing it after so many hours the lightning never gets lame. Thanks!!! and plz keep it up like this.

Hey Talfus,

I really like your guide, I'm around finishing merc right now.

I have some questions:
1. You had a nice Frost Wall CWDT setup, but I could not find it anymore. Why did you change it, what was its CWDT's lvl? Have you ever tried CWDT-Lightning Warp combo?

2. How do you deal with stunners? I think most of the times when I die it happen because of stuns or reflect mobs.

3. How do you deal with reflect mobs? I don't mean reflect maps, I mean I almost dieing every single time when there is a reflect rare/magic pack in the back, where I can't even see them and my HP just drop very very fast to 0.

4. Is there any particular reason why did you travel from Thrickery to Coldhearthed Calculation through int nodes instead of Shock, also why did you not take Lightning Walker?

5. Do you think Shav's is good for this build? How would you change the tree?

Answers:

1. Never tried CWDT-warp I think its not worth to try. Well my Wall setup was primarily made for Freeze Pulse guide you can find below but its something like CWDT level 1 + Frost wall (quality one 10 and above) + Some curse and maybe Arctic Breath. You can check the exact one in the guide.

2. Well your lightning warp is really fast if you have it with same setup as mine. You can do two things to deal with it 1- Is to get the anti-interuption nodes near Witch the other is to use your Warp and position yourself further away from the fight.

3. Yes if you dont see them sooon enough you get killed pretty easy. Having Doryani belt with Lightning leech and Dual Cybil for more Spell life leech is essential to deal with it, also popping Topaz flask and running Purity of Lightning is enough.

4. Well Arc is getting shock itself by just crits it's not worth it to take additional chance to shock because you're applying this status on your every critical hit.

5. Well Its ok but it makes it really expensive one, you can easily cap your chaos resist with some Chaos resist items and not have the need to buy Shavs it will be for sure the cheaper choice. I dont really like CI builds but as much as I can say is removing all HP nodes and transitioning them to ES ones.

Glad you're trying the build. Keep me informed to tell me how it is going once you get in maps.

Thank you and have fun.
