So trigger + cascade is hard to buy. Not many post it.
So I was thinking of buying a weapon with just trigger that has good enough stats on it.
Current weapon I have do have cascade + trigger:
Rarity: Rare
Mind Barb
Ezomyte Dagger
--------
Rune Dagger
Quality: +26% (augmented)
Physical Damage: 25-100 (augmented)
Critical Strike Chance: 6.30%
Attacks per Second: 1.40
Weapon Range: 10
--------
Requirements:
Level: 62
Dex: 95
Int: 132
--------
Sockets: W-B-G
--------
Item Level: 77
--------
30% increased Global Critical Strike Chance (implicit)
--------
+2 to Level of Socketed Lightning Gems
Socketed Gems are Supported by Level 16 Spell Cascade
21% increased Spell Damage
+53 to maximum Mana
5% increased Area of Effect
Trigger a Socketed Spell when you Use a Skill (crafted)
--------
Shaper Item
But I was thinking of buying something like
Wand
Quality: +24%
Physical Damage: 35-66
Critical Strike Chance: 7.00%
Attacks per Second: 1.50
Item Level: 80
Requires Level 60, 188 Int
33% increased Spell Damage
+34 to Intelligence
12% increased Spell Damage
108% increased Critical Strike Chance for Spells
+122 to maximum Mana
Trigger a Socketed Spell when you Use a Skill
(pseudo) +139 total maximum Mana
(pseudo) 45% increased Spell Damage
Incubating Shaper or Elder Trinket Item
13,757/20,307 Level 68+ Monster Kills
Is it even worth doing? I guess having conductivity over cascade gem in my weapon is also good boost.

I have not run it through POB but I believe the wand would be better. One of the most impactful upgrades on this build is mana, both for damage and survivability. Also, the lightning gem upgrades only applies ot the ones in the dagger so it isn't very useful.

I wouldn't go with either of these. Forget the Spell Cascade affix and just use the gem; it's really difficult to find or craft a solid weapon that's got that affix, and having good rolls on your weapon is a lot more useful than an extra gem slot in it.
As BuckFutter9 advises, mana is the most important affix. Base your weapon search on it having +140 to maximum mana--at a minimum. Then start adding other good mods, like a high lightning/spell damage or cast speed roll.
I have a question. Is better to have a 21/20 Anomalous Arc or the Base Vaal 21/0? Right now I'm using the Normal Vaal ARc 21/0.
I'm using the Anomalous Arc because it's generally superior when mapping. The Vaal Arc is better for Legion encounters and as a once-a-match damage boost versus tough bosses (think Sirus on his last phase).
As BuckFutter9 advises, mana is the most important affix. Base your weapon search on it having +140 to maximum mana--at a minimum. Then start adding other good mods, like a high lightning/spell damage or cast speed roll.
I recently picked up this glorious bastard of a wand and consider my journey on wand acquisition finished for this league.
