I'm having issues with survivability, getting one-shot a lot.
Should I switch my Ancestral Warchief-Impale to CWDT-Vaal Molten Shell? Or is there anything else I can switch into? If there is something mentioned, I couldn't find it because there are 500 pages. So help will be appreciated. Thanks
I managed to get a CWDT/vaal molten shell/curse setup going without dropping my vaal double striker (prefer that over ancestral warchief). Currently low level but not sure about that yet. I'm using vulnerability as the curse for a bit more boss damage but you could use enfeeble instead.
Ofc you could just selfcast a high level molten shell regularly and use the vaal version when needed. No links needed for that.
Edit: I should probably mention that I don't use a Kaom's.

im a little bit confused, which Buffs we take?
I Run Pride, F&S, B&S an DreadBanner (no war banner because planting on PS4 ist shit)= 85% Mana Reserved.
On Page 1 i read about Haste in the Crit Commentary. But Haste reserved 50% Mana. So should i switch Pride with Haste?
Not 100% sure which part you're refering to but it most likely doesn't mean you should use haste. It's probably about vaal haste which you can use for some more burst damage without any mana reservation.

I think you are right! Thanks for the answer. I might try a CWDT-Molten Shell set up instead of ancestral warchief to see if it works. I usually cast it during boss fights but cannot cast it again because when my leeching stops, I die.
I dropped maim support for flesh and stone so your precision will have enlighten. You can also drop impale support for ancestral warchief or drop enlighten but you will need both ring with -mana cost of skills.
So how much better is the crit version over RT? My gear is still pretty garbage so would it make sense to stick with RT until I get better gear then switch to crit (if it's that much better)?
well i ended up spending 6ex trying to 6L my Weapon so now the rest of my gear sucks ass but I managed to fit in enough int and should be overcapped on resists to run Ele Weakness Maps so I guess this will work
Can anyone who is doing the crit build tell me about how much it take to switch over to crit from RT and see a dramatic increase in single target DPS? Is the main cost the acuity and weapon?
dont need the acuity. thats a new addition to the crit variant. it saves you a bit of pathing but it doesn't add anything extra to the build.
and to switch from RT you don't even need a new weapon... just take overwhelm for 8% crit, level 1 precision plus two accuracy clusters on the tree along with 300 rating on gear and you have 100% chance to hit. (using atziris will make up for the extra points on accuracy by saving 7+ nodes to get there)
if you are playing RT you are playing it wrong in this league. it was nice as a starter as it was proven to work, so we can level and farm up currency but as it has moved on there is no reason to keep it right now
.
I think there is a lot of confusion here about how to build the crit build here, as the info is pretty limited in the front page of the build. Would you be at all willing to share specifics about what needs to change from the default build Ahfack wrote? What do you forego to get the accuracy nodes? Which ascendency do you change? What gear needs to/ideally would change? (You said nothing needs to?)
I'm assuming i would want things like crit chance and crit multi on my jewels and gear wherever possible?
Like someone else said, what are you dropping for the lvl 1 precision?
Any info would be greatly appreciated, i think by more than just me.

how do people clear Monoliths? I dont expect this build to be on par with my old ED/Contagion build or something like Vaal Ice Nova. However, I feel like Im struggling to clear these stupid things.
