Hi. What is the optimal 5link to run this? And can i do shaper on a 5link? Or do i have to switch to a tabula for shaper?

And if i go shaper do i swap added cold for added lightning for more flat light dmg?

A single abyss jewel with some added cold to spell is enough to trigger 10% chill effect thanks to Beacon of Ruin, so if you have that jewel (or other source of + Cold damage to spell), Added Lightning is better.

Best damage setup is Brand - Conc Effect - Conctrolled Dest - Lightning Pen - Hypothermia - Added Lightning

Shaper is one of the easiest fight for this build so 5L is fine for that. Vs Uber Elder, Shaper/Elder's guardians, you probably need 6L.

If you think that Wrath alone is not stronger than 9% pen (only when you are close to bosses) + some T4 added lightning damage on helm, you are the one needing Pro Tip here. The only build version that might deal higher damage than mine is the pure life no MoM one using both Wrath and HoT, but that one also lose out Spider stacks (which is great in both offense and defense) and being squishy as hell.

As for traps, will my single target damage be better with them? Yes, definitely. But I will lose tons of utility (no massive heal, no Phase run or no Frenzy Charge generation). Still, calling it 30X faster ... yep, that's some of YOUR B.S right there.

Taxi - ty for the PasteBin. What are your gem links then? Can you open your pofile so we see how you do it and your gear?

Just want to say this is a great build and I am absolutely loving the skill. I've cleared all content with it and hit 95 for the first time. It's extremely tanky, great clear, great damage, and super fun to play. I've crafted a couple dank pieces and made a few tweaks to my gem setups to fit my playstyle a bit better, but overall, mostly what you've outlined here. Thank you for the guide!

How the MGoH and LHoH feels with storm brand? is it worth it to craft a ring with those mods?

Idem for warlords on hit, it seems good but I don't know if its worth it to sac mod quality on the rings, especially with the 0.4% leech on the ammy.

I went with it mostly for delving. Leech doesn't do anything in darkness, LGoH/MGoH does. Didn't need any other stats so didn't hurt at the time and I had a pretty garbage ring before that anyway.

I've made a few changes since that post. I dropped the Curse on Hit-Ele Weakness setup because I didn't need it for clearing and swapped in a Mark of the Shaper and a Warlord's Mark on hit Elder ring. I moved the HoT to an Enlighten setup with Wrath and Clarity and grabbed a cheap Watcher's Eye with mana recovery and lightning damage.

Uber Elder went down deathless (my first deathless kill EVER on any build) with that setup and did a few more kills with one or two deaths. The damage is pretty busted at this point and I'm still having a blast with it.

There's still other areas for growth as well. Need to multi-mod this elder ring and throw some flat cold on it and drop the added cold gem in favor of added lightning. A fossil crafted Stygian with Life, Lightning Damage, Crafted Damage, 2 resists, and Ele Damage would be crazy. 20/20 gloves instead of 16/16, preferably double corrupted with a combination of +2 trap/duration/aoe. A crafted chest with + gems may be enough to beat out the area damage on Carcass Jack. Could even shoot for the crafted + 1 curse mod and use ele weakness on hit gloves. A double corrupted Magna Eclipsis with % life or phys taken as cold and +1 gems would be huge as well.

Plenty of areas for improvement and min/maxing!

It seems on your character profile you are running in your 6L: Storm brand - Ice bite - Spell Echo - Lightning Pen - Controlled Destruction - Conc. Effect


Could you please elaborate on this change/choice?
