Piscator's Vigil isn't good for a CoC build.

It's great at triggering spell casts, but the problem is that its utility stops there - it's an attack wand, not a hybrid attack/spell damage wand. The spell damage affixes on wands are very important for this build's damage output.

The elemental damage affix would not affect the damage of spells, as it specifically states that it applies to attacks.

It wouldn't even be a good wand to use with a Crown of Eyes. Crown of Eyes only becomes useful when placed in the context of a similar attack/spell damage hybrid sort of gear, which Piscator's Vigil isn't.

Piscator's Vigil is probably best used in a build that uses Alpha's Howl, Wrath and Anger, Maligaro's Virtuosity, and as many aura effect and attack speed nodes as can be crammed into a sturdy build.

My bad, I tought that since the spells are coming from the barrage / elemental hit - that are only possible with the wand, would count.

I'm not pretty sure what you talked about the crown of eyes stuff, I play low life ST with loath bane and I dont trigger any spell, so it dont really need to be used as hybrid attack/spell, just as attack are good enough.

I think the use will be limited to a "budget" wander build that uses the same concept as I use in spectral throw. Not so budget since it will require a shavronnes and a crown of eyes. But at least if the guy dont have yet the mirroed wand would count as budget wander then...

Its too bad, I would like to do a build with wand and I tought it would work :( I like this build very much, i'm sad that it would not work. I'm flerting with this build since a few months ago... :'(

Dont think its viable to me give up of loath bane and start using the wand too, he seems good, but not this much. I was thinking in using him in a secondary char.

I'm using 'hybrid' here to refer to paired spell affixes and attack affixes.

As for good wands - AXN also has a wand that he made for this build.

No. Mind Drinker only provides mana leech for attacks - Ethereal Knives is a spell. Any physical damage dealt by Barrage would leech, but that is a negligible quantity.

Yes, but not as well. Any way you look at it, you're spending extra points to do what this build does. Those extra points are not without value, but they are a departure from what's been prescribed here.

Hi
You did some serious mistakes with gear and tree. The most important IMO is:
1) Replace amulet as fast as possible. Your physical damage is very weak so you have no leach from amu but you lose 25% life!!! Get something with life and crit multi/chance + resists.
2) You have no Twin Terror node but you have 2 wands. Replace the Eagle wand (really bad one) for shield. If you lack survi take one with evasion + life + ress.
3) Iron reflex and Ondars Guile not works together. Remove IR. Evasion is much better for range chars and you chose elemental way so you have no problems with physical reflect.
4) Barrage can be low level. It will take less mana = lower clarity level needed = less life reserved.
If you do all the changes your survi will increase a lot!
All other items/passives seems good.

Okay thanks for the reply :) looking for a new ammy now and also what re your views on acrobatics and phase acrobatics?

Acrobatics and phase acrobatics suits very well for elemental patch of this build. Bad thing is that you have to spent lots of points to take it. I will probably take it when I reach level 93. With my current tree/items it don’t have survi problems without it. Ondars guile is much more important imo
