Been spamming uber lab runs on this build on Essence HC. Can do sub-10 minute runs. Can easily facetank Argus and get 3-4 keys total depending on mods. Still not bold enough to let Izaro eat all 3 essences though...
Keeping virtually 100% flask uptime is possible. I'm running Increased Critical Strikes instead of Controlled Destruction now, which helps a ton.
Here's what I use for the lab now (got insanely lucky with that helmet enchant...):
Still need to grab a Divinarius, but that's about it aside from getting better ES/crit rolls on gear. Also in the middle of fixing the Basalt and Ruby flasks to have anti bleed/curse, since I don't need freeze/shock resistance anymore due to Master Alchemist.
I don't think I can do uber lab as ci... till I get those flasks also you sure alchemist is better then the other choices? heres my gear currently
Spoiler
edit: also isn't the 20% damage vinktar the best one?
Uber Lab is trivial with CI. ES takes reduced damage from traps, and the flasks make them super weak. I literally just barrel through everything without caring. Just don't Shield Charge in the movement skill traps and you'll be fine.
The 20% Vinktar is best. They are virtually never for sale on EHC, and when they are, good luck buying them. The added damage flask works just fine, especially with Phys to Light linked. Leech over 10k ES/sec currently, and with 9k ES total that is plenty.
You can go Herbalist/Bowyer instead of Alchemist if you don't have the unique flasks, but to be honest it's probably just a waste of Regrets to keep respecing when you get new gear. Even in T12 maps I insta kill everything, it's not worth it to min/max DPS until it's Shaper time.
dam one shot in t12 dam so u suggest I go surgeon/alchemist? if I have the flasks? and what you think about six linked set up? what gems as I see you don't use added fire

Want to try this build again .better go life based , ci based or ci and then low life ?
Any suggestions about the change of the stacks ?
How much mana Regen to sustain 20 stack ?
And how many increase duration is needed ?

You sustain mana trough mana leech.
You can never have anough increased duration. Take everything you can,
Hey i just bought Vessel of Vinktar with Adds (25–35) to (105–130) Lightning Damage to Attack during Flask effect, should i change it? i dont have currency for phys to ligh, or another one :V
It's fine. Remember that flask effectiveness (which you should have 50% of, or so by now) boosts both the leech % and the base lightning damage of the Vinktar. If you link Phys to Light on your BV you'll leech to full virtually instantly with Vaal Pact using this flask. The conversion flask is technically better, but far from required for this build.
Ran the uber lab last night. Don't have amazing crit yet, so I have to back off of Izaro to farm his minions for flask charges real quick. Nothing too dangerous with 7k ES though.
I switched my Ascendancies over to the Alchemist/Boon path instead of Herbalist/Bowyer. The 20% increased flask charges gained is really helpful. Combined with the tree and the Magnate belt you essentially get double charges, which makes Vinktar much easier to sustain. Still not perfect 100% uptime, but I'm running Phys to Light instead of Increased Critical Strikes currently, which is lowering my uptime a bit.
I might be wrong, but isn't BV a spell not an attack?
EDIT: I have a question about items, what is more important first Essence Worm Unset Ring + Clear Mind Cobalt Jewel, 5L Carcass Jack, Divinarius Imperial Skean or Rathpith Globe Titanium Spirit Shield ?

I'm going to guess it depends on how tanky you want/need to be. If you are taking Mind over Matter, grab the Essence Worm ring (and that jewel if you have it) for the mana boost, which is an overall boost to your EHP w/ MoM. I view Carcass Jack as more of a bonus item that I'll get when I can afford it, but that's just my personal views.
