Getting 3 off colors in a 5l Volls is a pain in the ass. Managed to do that in about 400 chroms.
6l should be easier (hitted 3 greens around 4-5 times within 400 chroms).

Build is really nice BUT I would strongly suggest going either 6l stright away or sacrifice 8 points and grabbing Disemboweling. Otherwise booms wont come when you need them. And you need them.

Another thing that i would STRONGLY recommend is to run (alongside Discipline and Clarity) a high level Assasins Mark with Blasphemy for additional 8-9% chance to crit and MORE crit damage. This is where the build starts to shine.

You need AT LEAST 65% crit chance with your dagger BEFORE power charges (Assasins Mark included) for things to start looking fluid and comfy. This gives 44% chance to cast with lvl 20 coc and its about the same frequency as legacy crit mjolner builds and very close to legacy RT version but doing much more dmg and having much more wider AOE radius (molten strike single target excluded).



thank you very much for your recommendations mate, but hear me now i just spent like 40c worth of chromes and managed to finally get 3 green with 10 chromes to spare hahahahahaha i hate my life.
I still feel super squish playing this build. I die to colonnade boss easily and im level 86. Capped resists and have 5469 eff hp with discipline. Any idea what im doing wrong?


Spoiler


EDIT: a bit underleveled my gems

Judging from your gear and gems you're not outleeching the damage done to you effectively. This has to do with your current lvl of Discharge. As for now I would suggest going with Blasphemy + Assasin's Mark for more frequent and fluid blasts (also doing more dmg) and with some utility gem to support you like Vaal Discipline. Also keep that fortify up. And lvl up your Discharge.

I would love to try this build, but i am just about to start in the new league. So i will have to start from scratch and i would like some tips for leveling. Will you make a leveling guide at some point? Or just give me few tips on when to convert into CoC, how to lvl the fastest way etc? :)
Tip for colors on chest, do 1g from vorici cost's 4chroms

Thanks for the advice, it seemed like I was having difficulty getting the crit train started. Once I put Ass Mark on Blasphemy it all came together and now I am steamrolling maps so far @ lvl 75. I don't even have a 6L yet! Very excited for the potential of this build!

Two questions:

1) with 2.1 and Clarity stuff, would it be viable to do a lightning warp+faster cast+reduced duration for movement?
2) blade vortex wins against lightning penetration?
Just decided to make and level a character for this build. I would love some leveling tips for spells and what direction to head on the tree first if anyone has some suggestions. Also how does he get the hits cant be evaded on the dagger?

Hits can't be evaded is a Vagan dagger, a prefix Vagan sells level 4+.

I leveled using self cast Blade Vortex, pretty easy and fast.

As for the tree, go for Life > Damage > Crit, level 60+ you should start really worrying about crit. Ofc, you can start earlier for crit but you might end up being really squishy and being unable to clear content.
