Say you using a wand that has normal fire damage on it and freezing pulse + Arc
Your barrage will hit first with fire and monster will get +25% fire res and -50% cold/lightning.
Arc will then hit on a -50% lightning resistance monster because it is an instant spell which then EE makes the monsters res +25% lightning -50% fire/cold res.
Then freezing pulse will hit on a -50% cold resistance monster and EE will make the monsters res +25% cold -50% fire/lightning.

Then your barrage hits again and so on and so on.

If you watch prfct1on video when he is fighting Malachai/Atziri for example, you will see the boss resistances alternating very fast from one resistance vulnerability to the other.

It helps if you slow the video down but you can still notice it on normal speed.

Atziri's Acuity is not needed what so ever... they are not BIS for this setup. There are much better rares or Voidbringer for high ES/spell crit and ES gain on kill and +1 to elemental gems.
BIS is corrupted Voidbringer +1 to level to gems.

If you can get your hands on them (ahem), a corrupted Voidbringer w/ Grants Assassin's Mark skill, which you link with Herald of Thunder and Curse on Hit, then you can get a second curse item, and add a second curse of choice would help with mana issues immensely.

ok, thanks for the answer. that makes sense.
i switched my configuration a little bit and now EE works as intended, but im still lacking the single target dps, no matter what gem combination i choose. is it possible that its just my gem levels (between 15-19 atm) or maybe a little bit to low aps (1.9)?
