Flaskfinder Wander [2.2]

8.6k ES
In HO with golem and auras only: 65k GMP+chain.
With flasks, vhaste, charges: 209k GMP+chain, 83/84/85 res, 75 block, 29 spell block, vinktar shock, taste of hate conversion, 5k armor from Rumi. It's also possible to drop the ruby flask for Atziri's promise, and get shock removal on the quicksilver. With that setup I get around 250k GMP+chain on my KB. Replacing chain with pierce will roughly double your tooltip. So my 250k GMP+chain would be 480k GMP+pierce. I'm unsure whether pierce or chain actually clears faster.

Tree + Jewels
My L99 Pathfinder tree
L81 Pathfinder tree

1x Chill of Corruption to get permanent uptime on vaal haste
2x 10 allres DPS + ES
1-2x DPS + ES jewel

Thoughts on the tree
* Before you have enlighten 4 / Skyforth you may need charisma.
* If you don't have Skyforth you absolutely must have heart of oak, and you still need to be careful with stuns. Stun recovery on belt and chest may be useful for you.
* Vaal Pact (and cwdt warlords) is only there for the purpose of making it so I don't 1shot myself to reflect rares when I'm not focused and not using flasks. For lower levels (95 and below) you absolutely don't need them since accidental 1shots are pretty rare and exp is plentiful at those levels.
* Arcane Chemistry is also optional but it is amazing for boss fights and making sure your quicksilver is permanently up.
* True Strike and neighbor nodes can be swapped out for additional ES at witch start if you feel like your ES is too low. I would say 8k+ is fine even for doing reflect maps (where your ES may jump up/down by up to 4k).

My gear



Thoughts on gear
* Facebreaker are better than legacy maligaro unless you desire 95% crit chance just to say you have it. If you use maligaro you may only need 1 diamond ring to cap crit.
* Headhunter is kind of trashy compared to a belt with WED and reduced flask charges used... Literally all you need to beat Headhunter is a 5c belt.
* Pierce clears almost as fast as chain when soloing, and is better for parties because you won't be able to play at a 1shot per pack pace anyways.
* Same idea with added cold vs faster attacks. Added cold gives slightly lower TT than faster attacks but for solo you will clear faster because it generates larger hits and thus make it more likely that you 1shot packs instead of needing 2 shots. Added cold also procs more freezes and shatters so it makes it easier to keep VHaste up. (thanks to Doeboy for suggesting this indirectly).
* Wand and amu are the most important pieces to get mirrored. If not using a mirrored amu I would look for a pierce talisman and use the pierce gem instead of chain.
* Chest/shield can be self-crafted for around 120ex each (if you're looking for T1 T1 T2 | T4+), no point mirroring those.
* Rings are the last priority to get mirrored, but you will have to mirror them eventually. I don't believe it's possible to craft them yourself for cheaper.
* Boots/Gloves/Helm are uniques, so easy to get. Rainbowstride served me well until I got Skyforth. I believe the KB explosion enchant is better than the KB inc dmg one, and for boots I like leech, fire dmg on kill, and attack/cast speed. Decree of spite is amazing on gloves, however it can kill you in reflect maps. It did 8k damage to me in a reflect map while my pots were down and I wasn't expecting to get hit with reflect. EW on hit FBs are only slightly better than cursing with proj weakness through herald of ice. They simply make bosses die faster, but don't really improve clearspeed.

At the low gear level you clearspeed will be most improved by increasing your damage, so it's better to go Deadeye over Pathfinder. You also don't want to play this on a lowbudget, but once you can afford a 750 ES 6L vaal regalia and a 400ES shield you can give it a shot. If you play "hard" at the start of a league with a farming build (RF totems for example) you should be able to afford the above within a week. At a more casual pace it may take 3-4 weeks.

Tree
Start with a CI Deadeye tree.

Flasks
Rumi's
Atziri's Promise
Bubbling mana flask of Staunching
Alchemist's Quicksilver of Adrenaline
Last flask is open. Taste of hate if you have a phys wand. Basalt Silver or Diamond would also work well.

Important gameplay tips
Atziri's flask will cover your life leech needs. In order to cover mana, you will want the leech boot enchant, use a mana flask, and use vaal clarity.

You should expect to get around 70-130k tooltip fully buffed (depending on the quality of your jewelry and jewels, yes they make that much of a difference!) as well as 8k ES.

Single Target Damage
When used correctly Spell Totem - Frost Wall combined with a 6L KB will melt bosses. However you need to position yourself correctly. KBs explosions happen in a cone behind the initial impact. In order to maximize the #explosions that hit you need to be shooting at a 45 degree angle into the frost wall. In fact almost any angle works so long as it's not 90 degrees. Low level (=shorter wall length) on the frost wall can make it that even shooting into the short side of the frost wall does great damage.
