[1.3] Corrupted Arc Witch - Potato and Beginner Friendly (SOLO) Mapping Char

"How likely am I going to die in HC" is really hard to quantify, outside of saying "eventually every HC character dies". My Arc tooltips at about 9k with 0 charges and 12k ish with, which is more than enough to clear maps but it's no shatterchuck. The 50% regen Enfeeble Shrine really messed with me. It's not a build that survives without planning and decent reactions (you have to granite, you have to have bleed flasks, you have to identify reflect mobs and topaz flask on -max) but it certainly has the tools to react, and building as CI arc can be punishing in HC if you're not prepared for the ES/flask timings. From the videos you can judge whether the dps is enough vs 78 bosses, I feel like it's slow enough that you have to respond to their mechanics but not so slow that you can't do it.

I'm a bad player on a bad computer with a bad connection. I die, sometimes a lot. I think a better player could take this to 95 in HC before dying, but I am not that good. I think the answer is gonna depend on how good/lucky you are.

I will say that a build with 8k+ effective hp with a regen cap of 3200/s, two ultra-fast movement skills, decent automatic control, and reasonably good mitigation with flasks + aa is likely to go far if you get it fully online.

The things that kill this build are pretty cut and dry - critical bleeds (that you fail to flask off), chilled stuns (that you don't swap chayula on for), and absolutely broken burst (palace dom smash on shocked ground with vuln curse). You can't take a 10k hit and you do need to watch for double reflect on -max (which is one of the most dangerous mods for a map).
