[2.2] CoC Discharge with The Harvest (Video Added)

The Harvest has some really strong additions to CoC discharge as well as some shortcoming that get addressed by the tree. Firstly you will notice later that I do not use life leech in the 5L for CoC setup. This is because the weapon gives us 1.2% leech on critical strikes. While it is less than life leech gem, it is been enough for my testing in SC. I have not tested in HC but with good positioning and knowledge it can probably be made work. Anyway back to The Harvest. The weapon also provides us with flask charges on critical strike, which make our diamond flask essentially a surgeons flask (Crazy I know!). Last but not least the weapon gives us 3% Global Critical Strike Chance Per level! In the tree you may notice we take Eldritch Battery. This is to help combat Voll's Protector's reduction to our mana pool by letting us attack off of our es. Typically CoC builds have been using Elreon jewelry with "-mana cost of skills" to make cycloning around free or near free. I have been surviving with EB and Vaal Clarity. Also CoC builds typically use a Vagan Dagger with "Hit's Can't be Evaded" Mod to rid the hassle of getting accuracy on gear and in the tree. We don't have that luxury as we are using The Harvest. To help with this I have gotten a crit + accuracy cluster in the tree. It seems to be fine for the time being.

Oak - Kraityn/Kill All - Alira

Attack Speed is nice from Krait but not mandatory. If you don't regularly hit high levels on your characters you may want to opt for the passive point in cruel to help you get the points for the tree faster. The rest is self explanatory: Oak for flat life in Normal and Alira for power charge in merc

End Game Goal Tree:

Leveling Trees
20 Points

40 Points

61 Points

Level 69 or so with all passive point quests done
(Very good point at which to switch to CoC if you haven't already)

These two items are key to making the build work:



You can certainly run the build on a 4L for CoC setup so 5L Voll's isn't required.
(See Gem Links section for more info)

4L CoC setup: Cyclone - Cast on Critical Strike - Discharge - Increased Critical Strikes
5L CoC setup: Cyclone - Cast on Critical Strike - Discharge - Increased Critical Strikes - Blade Vortex/Life Leech (3 green for BV is hard to roll but the best for 5L in this build, Life Leech in a red or whatever other spell or increased crit damage in blue)

Other Important things:
Blasphemy - Assassin's Mark
Aura's:
Run Blasphemy and (Choose one):
1) Haste
2) Herald of Ice + Herald of Lightning (before Elemental Equilibrium Node)
3) Herald of Ice + Arctic Armour (After EE)
4) Herald of Ice + Purity of Elements (After EE, if you want resists to make gearing easier)

Here is what I use:

I suggest using Maligaro's Virtuosity gloves as they give great crit and crit multi. Also suggest a Starkonja's Helm or Rat's nest depending on your budget.
