New question: Elementalist or Occulist witch ? (new ascendency class)

Definitely occultist.

Power charge on crit and extra power charge means we can drop assassin's mark for a completely new aura. Maybe something to be tanky. I would think either a purity or arctic armor.

I'm not convinced: Since you have 6 point to invest:

Elementalist:

* Liege of the primordial:
40% increased Damage of each Damage Type for which you have a matching Golem.
Your Elemental Golems are Immune to Elemental Damage.
100% increased effect of bonuses granted by your Elemental Golems

* Pendulum of Destruction:
Every 10 seconds, gain 100% increased elemental damage for 4 seconds

* Paragon of Calamity (scold's hype):
For each element you've been hit by Damage of in the past 4 seconds, 40% increased damage of that element.
For each element you've been hit by Damage of in the past 4 seconds, 8% reduced damage taken of that element.

or if it's not working with scold's: Shaper of desolation for 20% chance to gain elemental conflux (all damage from hits will cause shock (50% increased dmg), freeze and ignite)

+30% increased elemental damage
+4% increased attack and cast speed
+6% to all elemental resistances
+3% chance to freeze, shock and ignite


Occultist:

*Forbidden Power:
10% chance to gain a power charge on critical strike
+1 to maximum Power charge

*Profane Bloom:
Cursed enemies you kill explode dealing 10% of their life as chaos damage
Enemies you curse take 10% increased damage

*Malediction:
Enemies can have 1 additional curse
When you kill an enemy, for each curse on that enemy, gain 4% of non-chaos damage as extra chaos damage for 4 seconds

+24% increased maximum energy shield
+30% curse duration
+20% critical strike chance



Conclusion:

Elementalist: 150% increased dmg + 100% every 10sec = 250% and cast speed + res
Occultist: 1 more power charge + chance to gain them, 1 more curse = 12% extra dmg as chaos + your curse, 20% crit chance


I'm wondering

Thanks for awesome build. Cloak of flame double mokous seems to work way better than carcass kek because vms procs with whirling blades. Oneshotting everything so limiting factor is whirl speed.

Is this build viable for early season (temp) / only Scold's really required?

Hey
Thanks for writing up this build, its a lot of fun!

I'm trying to do everything as you wrote in the guide. However since I'm piss poor it takes a lot of time to get all the stuff I need. I'm getting there though :) Today was a giveaway of a 6l carcass jack but I was too slow :(

Questions:

1. Somewhere in this build you are speaking of having 6 end charges. Did you change that in your build? With your belt you have 4, but there is no skill point that you spent on +1 end charge, right?

2. Could you maybe include your jewels in the build? You mentioned in the comments you are using 3 sacrificial harvests, 1 vaal sentencing and 1 rare gem with crit. But crit chance for rare gems is kinda low, is that worth it?
In another comment you said you are using chill of corruption. So I'm really confused now.

Edit:
3. Also, as occultist we can drop assassins mark, right? I'm assuming we then get 4 skill points back because we don't need "whispers of doom". Where would you put those 4 points? I thought about getting one more socket for another vaal sentencing or one endurance charge.

Is the 2 points for the extra Endurance Charge really worth it?

Also is Firewalker worth the -fire resists?

If I was running with someone else who could provide the resists all aura, would taking firewalker be worth it?

Fire walker GIVES you fire resist, it doesn't take it away.

At some point tho, once you have this much DPS you kind of want to make sure you survive. The extra endurance charge is nice for that. I'm sitting at 6 endurance charges most of the time because I switched over to my tanky version lately. I'm gonna update the thread and post that. You could always switch that endurance charge to a power charge if you prefer tho.
