click on your char screen on top left of this site, with your char portrait says your char name and level class. you should see your inventory menu just like in game and list of your character on the left. if you click on your item whether the equipped one or from the inventory/stash, it should automatically link it to your post content while writing/editing a post.

as for skill tree, just click the passive tree tab with the greyed text and it should direct you to passive tree screen, and you could just copy paste the tree link.

Bumping this,

I've done a lot of experimentation and theorycrafting and I was wondering your thoughts on a few points:

As far as I can tell, there is no way to self-sustain an endless stream of CWDT procs, especially vs a boss. Based on some calculations, you'd have to deal ~450 tooltip damage to a single mob with a lvl 7 GC and a lvl 8 EK while both the boss and yourself were cursed with high level vulnerability and you were cursed with high level punishment. Both you and the boss having 0 armor.

1) There may be a creative way around the limit but if there is I haven't discovered it yet. You'd need ~800% damage bonus to do enough physical damage to self-sustain (on average) which isn't possible with normal means. I'm using crit as a damage boost at the moment but still not there yet. Another posibility is a tiered CWDT system, but the math is too complex to figure out at the moment (not to mention limited gem slots). I belive this is intentional by the Devs, If a method is discovered to infinite self-damage-cast I expect it will be patched very quickly.

2) Supposing you did find a way to sustain infinite casting, you would likely die. With your current setup, the only reason you survive is the abundance of other non-physical spells hitting the mobs. This solution is needed because you only get 16 HP back per hit. In order to really shine there needs to be a way to use life leech rather than LGoH. I'm still working out the math on how to integrate life leech. The more damage each spell does, the less signifigant LGoH from Cybil's Paw is. Getting rid of Cybil's Paw would be great because it would unlock even higher damage, and/or the ability to use a shield.

3) speaking of surviving... There is no way to survive at end-game without maxed resists and some form of damage mitigation. MoM is a great way to give yourself mitigation without impacting your reflected damage but there needs to be more in order to really do higher maps well. I suspect evasion or block will be the choice because armor and AA kill the reflected damage. This is the primary reason that i'm trying to self-sustain CWDT casting as much as possible because if you rely on mobs doing massive damage to you to do damage then you will eventually just end up dying.

4) Other Experimental Idea: Righteous Fire to boost damage



All that being said, even without self-sustained infinite CWDT procs this build is very effective for me at lvl 57 currently. Self-casting a high level glacial cascade (with only life leech linked to it) is enough to send off a flurry of CWDT casts that pretty much destroy most regular mobs instnantly. My only problem is survivability once my mana runs out, I'm using the MoM chest so 40% of my damage hits my mana and pretty much obliterates it. Right now i'm using a completely different build than the OP, and different gem setup. It's just about as effective as your typical self-caster but If I can solve some of the 3 issues above I think it will faceroll. If I can manage self-sustained CWDT casting then it will be beyond OP and will be nerfed :)

Which kind of armour you are using? Could you please post your entire gears?

If I understand your build (it is a bit complicated... :) ), i think that this seems to fit quite well for you.

It is basically a 40%MoM

It also allows you to save a lot of 'road' up to the MoM passive, which you could use in a different way.
