Is it entirely necessary to use life leech in the weapon? I know that there were people who had issues with leeching, but I was watching a HC streamer play this build in t15's w/o leech. I've got leech on my Devotion and Death's Door.
Nop not necessary if you got boot enchant or want to rely on vinktars, it comes to down how big your balls are

I did some testing and while the damage increase was nice, I don't have the patience for deaths, considering I'd like to this guy to be my first 100.
as attack speed you can be the gem of accelerated attacks?
with it I have 5.30 without it is at 3.7
75% accuracy is enough or not?
epero used a translator to understand me
Thanks for the swift and detailed reply - all makes sense :) And thanks again for the awesome build and guide, I finally hit lvl 69 last night to be able to use all gear I saved for the build - so much fun..
So while levelling I had a really sweet setup with a lucky Vagan dagger roll (crit + AS), Discharge in the Voll's chest and was using herald of Ice to get that cold dmg for EE, also what was working so well for me was having Both Vaal Haste and Vaal Disc linked to Inc Dur, and then Decoy Totem + FC + Vaal Summon Skeletons in shield. In boots I had CWDT + Inc Dur + IC + Ice Golem and in helm I ran a Blasphemy setup with Warlord's Mark.
Everything synergised well and all gems fitted perfectly but now after hitting 68 / 69 and equipping Cospri's and also the Purities in helm - I of course have to move Discharge to the sword and add Life leech and Inc Crit Strikes, and drop blasphemy / curse. So now I am having a hard time letting go of my vaal skills and I am not sure what to prioritise for the CWDT setup and shield slot gems..
Since we know helm, gloves, weapon and chest gem setups are pretty much fixed - and I realise you said its up to personal preference for the rest - and yes I did see your own setup as a reference - but maybe others could chime in here on a quick rating of the following setups?
<Helm, chest, sword and glove gems are as per guide, and take note I do have Death's Door + Leech enchant, and a LL gem in Cospri's>
1. Decoy Totem, Faster Casting and Vaal Discipline in Shield
CWDT + IC + Inc Dur + Ice Golem in Boots
OR
2. Vaal Haste + Vaal Disc + Inc Dur in Shield
CWDT + IC + Warlord's Mark + Ice Golem in Boots
OR
3. Vaal Haste + Vaal Summon Skellies + Vaal Disc in Shield
CWDT + IC + Ice Golem + Vortex in Boots
etc etc or some combination / variation of the above... or do a CWDT setup in both shield and boots?
Any thoughts or strong preferences people have or have found to work well? I currently went from Blasphemy + Warlord's Mark to having no active curse and it feels wierd ^^ If you check my character doing this build out on my account -his name is Vaaroh
I think I have not prioritised endgame node order correctly and left many ES / defensive nodes and CI cluster a little late - but I chose the one-node-off-path Jewel nodes to slot in Dex jewels to equip Cospris.. I do have a Vinktar / Dying Sun / Rumi's all ready if needed but still using life flasks since I am not CI yet.. General tips on the char are greatly appreciated :D
Spoiler
I can chime in abit on the CWDT setup. It's not necessary to have it in a 4 link with golem, because cwdt cannot cast golem anyway, since it is low level to proc warlords mark more often, therefore providing no benefit whatsoever.
Hope this helped abit, if you do play around with different setups let me know how it turns out. GL!
cwdt does cast golems /anyhow thanks for posting such a great build xd
I have a dilemma. It bugs my that we have to use the Accuracy gem. I had a spare Hubris for a rainy day and I managed to get this after a couple hundred chaos.
And I also have
My question is... is the build that much/any better if I manage to get my accuracy from gear/tree? I've never played Discharge at a high tier, so I don't know if getting FA in the 6link would be a worthwhile change.
And I'm really fighting the urge to remove the crafted ES and slam both the helm and gloves... *cringe*

i'm struggling on shaper and phoenix, for shaper i think it's because i don't know the fight yet, but yeah i thought with this gear and lvl 95 i'll be alright but no i got rekt by shaper in phase 3. Phoenix he's alright but for a deathless run you have to stay aware

Single target will be better if you drop accuracy gem for accuracy on every single piece of gear. until you're able to reach atleast 90% accuracy without it, it isn't. I wouldn't drop 20% attack gloves for gloves with accuracy however. Maybe if you're only clearing with cyclone.

I've killed phoenix deathless and shaper with 1 death. You have to use your pots very sparingly and go in and out for small bursts on shaper, you can't facetank him forever unless you have perma vinktars.
You can survive shaper's fight almost forever aslong as you place the balls correctly. They should be #1 priority before dpsing shaper. gl

^ I'm playing this on a Pathfinder and I really like the Crit Multi with Crit Strikes on my Discharge.
After filling out all my jewel slots I have about 76% crit chance and 480% crit multi on my discharge. Those numbers along with the rest of my powered up flasks makes some great clear speeds both packs and single target.
