Dominion's Hardcore Dual-Spark CI Witch - UPDATED for 1.0.1

Do I need armor? The monster is almost 1 hit me...

Could someone advise me on my current SPORK build:

I'm been suggested to change to go down towards the shadow route. Does increase %crit chance > lightning damage?

Just a heads up guys, I just did a Mountain ledge map (Level 67). It had the new mod of projectiles can chain twice. With both totems up, a split arrow archer pack nearly insta gibbed me in 1 shot. As when it hits your totems, the projectiles are all focused onto you lol. Be careful.

I wasn't careful and it killed me. I wasn't really paying good attention - I feel bad for HC players that might have this happen.

Damn man that sucks, I myself play HC. I cant stress enough how dangerous it is lol. Specifically with archers as enemies. As CI we get stunned easy, and its pretty much giving them almost 100% accuracy with their shots.

See archers? Pop granite. Also, you don't have to stand next to your totem. You can place them on the edge of your screen and just revive them when they die. I was running a few maps with chain though and you're right, it can be a bit dangerous.

Thats true, granite did make it a tad easier. But they still hit very hard. Not to mention that with the chain, both your totems get hit from each projectile now also. Totems die even quicker hahahaha

Hi guys

Can anyone help me improve my dps?

I have been following this build and I'm running with:
320% IRI (with IRI skill gem)
dps = 454 (lvl 17 spark)
ES buffed = 6500
Resist unbuffed = 58/75/56, 78/78/78 buffed with lvl 18 purity

My gear:


My passive:

Where to from here? It takes a while to solo lvl 66 & 67 maps, and I generally tag along with 3-4 others and cull strike bosses while they do most dps.

I'm lvl 80 so is it a bit early to transit to Crit?

This is the crit build im gonna respec to:

I'm at merciless ledge now at level 58

My spark totem (faster casting + fork) does 98DPS
My freezing pulse does 400dps (LMP + added lightning + faster casting)

should I transition into dual totem? it seems like a DPS downgrade

I'm level 53 ledge running dual totem, tool tip dps is 138, spark is in 5L chest

So up to you, I think the dps is fine


Also another question for end-game:

Is the unique chest Soul Mantle worth using or nah?

It seems like you give up ALOT OF es, but it seems kinda nice
