Would you guys go for Alchemist tri-cluster or Force of Nature tri-cluster?

Dying Sun worth the heavy investment for this build you think?

Force of Nature first.

How early should I be taking Elemental Overload? I'm near the end of my tree; main key skills left to get are elemental overload and primeval force--is overload better with its "more elemental damage" modifier?

Depends. I personally took EO before PF.

EO is 5 points from the tree, which gives you 40 INT and 40% more damage. The 40 INT give you 4-24 extra lightning damage and 8% more ES.

PF is 6 points from the tree, which gives you +20 DEX, and 81% more damage (if you are using a flask). The 20 DEX gives you some extra accuracy, and under 1% extra attack speed.

So, if you're low on defense, pick EO for the added ES. If you're not dying often, or at all, go for PF, and enjoy even better clearspeed and faster boss kills.

Hi just a quick question. Is the tooltip you posted in your ho?

Depends on who you are asking. :)

My TT in HO, with wrath, discipline, and lightning golem up, is currently 40,964.4.

If I add Ancestral Protector to that, it bumps up to 49,045.

Fully buffed in the field, with 8 frenzy charges, Vinktars, Elemental Overload, etc, etc, it's over 160k.

the tree isnt complete says 50 points left

Revised trees for 2.6.

28 points

66 points

87 points

After you hit this, you'll need to have ES gear and a bunch of refund points, so you can switch from life based to CI based. When you get your ES gear and 88 points to spend, you respec to this tree:

CI Respec at 88 points

111 points

hi. your build is good so far.. just a question hoping to get an answer

faster attack vs added lightning dmg

which 1 is more worth it

For me 19/20 added lightning adds 5K and 20/20 faster attacks adds 8K (tooltip). Also faster is so much nicer to use. I don't know why others have said they're equivalent.
