You dont need 20% quality on life leech gems, it deosnt add anything to VP
I meant, Q20 LL instead of VP - to see if the leech speed is sufficient without.
oohh, ok, yeah, the leech wont even be close to as good even with quality

The Cloak of Defiance makes this build even more tanky with AA, but getting the right colors is frustrating. I stopped after about 200 chromes, and just replaced life leech with echo. At some point, I will have revisit the RRRGB ideal setup so I can get some leech going for maps.
I just hit lvl70 with the 1H + shield version. DPS is almost 4K tooltip with charges, but I feel squishy - need a Cloak and higher level AA badly... its fun to play tho!
Basically, you trade the 99% fire dmg on top for 40% more Mana Regen, 26% max. Mana and 14% max. Life. This should give even more survivability with the cloak, however I'm beginning to wonder at which point the damage will actually be too low for endgame/Atziri.
Inner force cluster is a must for me BTW, at least lategame. ANother advantage is that I could easily switch to "normal" FP without the fire dmg wheel, if I so desire.

So far I'm sticking to 66-68 maps until 75ish, but still, the dps is amazing (wand and shield version) and the build is fun (72 so far). my lvl 17 AA and my CoD is keeping me alive quite well, even through heavy physical hits. Thanks for the build!
Hey, i thought id share this build since its very fun and it does insane amount of dps, its also cheap to get very high dps. It also does more dps than most low life shavs casters with a 20th of the cost
Explanation on how this works and how it gets so much dps:
Spoiler
Ok, so why avatar of fire and cold to fire instead of the traditional way?
Because, by using avatar of fire and cold to fire your penetration gem is much stronger, you damage is also globally increased when you got your specific fire nodes which means you increase the damage from heralds too, and of course it gives you the option to grab both fire and cold damage points or gear mods.
Why use The Three Dragons?
All of your damage is converted to fire, your FP does fire and it shocks now, giving you a multiplicative increase of 50% in dps.
How do i get 250k?
My tooltip as you can see is 24k: http://i.imgur.com/uc4AgyC.jpg
(its 25k now)
But this tooltip is PER freezing pulse projectile, they can shotgun, which means when you shotgun you are doing 5 times the damage with GMP, this 24k turns into 120k.
This 120k, penetrates 40% of fire resistances because of the passives and the fire penetration gem, this means you atomatically do 168k dps.
Now this is the best part, because you shock with the three dragons now, you get an extra 50% more damage, which means you do ~250k shotgun against shocked enemies, almost everything is shocked when you use this, i can even shock level 78 dominus.
The shock is also great for parties, everyones damage is increased by 50% more from shock which makes the whole clear speed in parties a lot faster
And voila, youre doing the same or even more dps than low life shav builds with a cheap ass character in comparison

You want to use a three dragons for the 50% more damage increase,
you will eventually go for a 5l/6l pledge of hands
Any chest will do, you can go for a cloak of defiance if u have enough mana/regen, even a light coil good if u can get enough light resist, i use a kaoms cause i like it, but you get better damage reduction with light coil or cloak. Life without a chest, helmet or gloves is 4.2k which is enough, if you opt for life gloves youll and light coil you can get to 4.5k easily.
You can also chose to go with a tanky witch, you can stack mana regen on gear, and in passives to run a high level AA, with a cloak of defiance, you will be extremely tanky, and youll getextra links for more utlity like lightning warp, you will have lower dps by doing this but you will be tankier.
Rings and amulets should have life and resists in the first place, then mana regen, cast speed, critical multiplier and critical strike chance.
Boots just need ES, life, resists and movement speed if you can.
Gloves dont have to be maligaros, im only using them cause i have a pair, you can use really any pair of gloves here, best in slot would obviously be atziris acuity.
Doyanis inviation is pretty nice but a simple life + resists belt will also do fine

My Gear:
Spoiler
I swap to crit dmg to PCOC on bosses that dont have adds so i can get power charges
unfortunately because i use kaoms heart i have no room for lightning warp, which is a pain in my assholes
If you have any questions just post them here and ill be happy to answer
My gear
Same tree really, just went the Shadow route, have yet to get the 2 Power Charge nodes on tree simply because Curse on Hit isn't as reliable as I'd like for charge generation. Even so, it's great damage, even if tooltip doesn't reflect all of the mechanics in play. Fun, tanky enough and did I say fun? Thanks mate!
