For the weapon, you are looking for any foil (30% crit multi implicit) with at least 2 attack per second and 7% crit.
Once you get that base, aim for flat lightning damage and crit multi.
If you get all those four stats you are in good shape and all the other stats is just icing on the cake.


This is a good alternative until you get a crit foil (i was wearing this until level 80)



For offhand THIS is by far the best option. The part where you don't need to have mana to use your attack skill is HUGE. It make you able to run another aura or remove blood magic from your gems setup. For me it gave me about 25%-30% more dps.
The only stat that you are looking for on this piece is cold resistance since we are not hitting with it... so, take the cheapest on poe.trade.


This is by far the best leveling offhand that you can get. It's about 1 chaos and is really low level. What makes this really good is the fact that if give you onslaught on kill and culling strike (kinda 10% dps boost).


Rat's nest, well it's the home of dps (soft core only unless you want to die). The boost to critical strike chance and the 15% attack speed is really big for elemental build. Not much to say it does what it does and it does it pretty well. And don't forget that 600 evasion is really good.


For hardcore players just aim for a High evasion (around 700) with high life and resists. Since the build have a lot of pressure on resists, the extra resists from the helmet is gonna reduce the price of accessories by a LOT.


If you want to be more tanky than with a rat's nest, you can use this. It is cheep and it does almost all of what rat's nest does.


For accessories, not much to say, just aim for life, Resists, Elemental damage and flat lightning damage. If you can get attack speed or lightning damage as a suffix, it's a nice dps boost but normally for the cost it's really not worth it.


For body armor there are a lot of choice but i prefer the "belly of the beast" since we don't have that much life (for me it gave me about 650 life). If you want to have more physical mitigation you can still go for lightning coil but i haven't tested it at the moment so i can't really say much on that topic. Also, since we are already starving on resists, lightning coil will put a LOT of presure on the accessories.


For gloves there is a lot of option. First i was going for facebreaker. This is the highest dps option, the 90% critical multiplier is HUGE and it will give you even more dps then Maligaro. Why I chose to not go for facebreaker is because of the intelligence that a lvl 21 wrath require.
I was starving so much on int and i wanted to remove some pressure from the amulet. So i went for rare gloves.
Also if you go for facebreaker, Reflect will be an issue because of 500% critical multiplier (you will end up to that much and maybe more) is pretty dangerous.


Not much to say on the belt side, Aim for a little bit of str so you wont have to spec for it in the passive tree. Then aim for HIGH life, elemental resistances and weapon elemental damage.


For boots the Darkray vector is a HUGE dps boost with a HUGE survivability boost. the 18%-20% dodge that it give at full frenzy charge will help you a tonne. Other then that there is not much to say, best in slot by far and pretty cheep if not corrupted.
