Barrage (Buffed with choir/auras/vaal haste):

KB (Buffed)--- OUTDATED:

Check my gear for my gem setup.

Main DPS Setup
We use barrage on a 6 link for single target and KB on a 5 link (gloves) for clearing.

Aura Setup
For aura's we run Anger, Wrath, HOT, HOI, Haste, and Discipline, along with curse on hit warlords mark/assassins on HOT.

Golem
Lightning golem is the best in our case since we prioritize flat lightning on gear. Also gives us really nice attack speed.

PCOC & Vaal gems setup
We use an orb of storms, pcoc & increased crit strikes to generate power charges while mapping/bosses since we don't have skyforths. You can drop these for an extra aura if you have them. Vaal haste is used for a big movement speed/attack speed buff and gives us a really nice boost for clear speed.

Body armor: Nothing to say here, we are going LL so shavs is our best option. You might get away with a 5 link shavs but you will have to sacrifice some single target.
Helmet % Enchant: CoE is very powerful for ele wanders and is in general the best choice to go for. It allows us to scale % attack damage through spell damage on our wand/jewels. % scaling becomes very powerful when we have a lot of flat ele dmg (lightning) on our gear/gems. WE should be able to squeeze in 100% + ele dmg on our jewels/wand. For our helm enchant ideally what you should be looking for is +additional barrage projectiles, but since that is very hard to get I went for barrage AS. You can also go for barrage damage or any modifiers to KB and maybe even reduced mana reservation on HOI/HOT or any other auras.
Wand: This is a terrible example of a good wand but it's what I have for now. Here are the stats you should be looking for in terms of priority: Spell damage (70% +), Crit chance (10% +), Attack speed (1.65+), Added Elemental damage (Added lightning is best), Accuracy, Crit multi.
Short Wand-crafting guide:
Rings: These are the rings i'm using. What you are looking for is % Weapon ele damage , Added lightning to attacks, % ES or Flat ES, Resistances, and finally strength (For gem reqs). Opal rings and diamond rings constitute the best bases. There are some mods that can be decent such as # Accuracy & Added Fire/cold damage but it would be best to focus on former dps mods.
Belt & Amulet: Crystal belt is straight forward. You should be looking for high flat ES & resistances. If you have both of those covered then % Increased WED is also very good. I use a presence of chayula because I don't currently have skyforths and is BIS for LL.
Boots: High ES boots with 30% movespeed, flat lightning enchant when you haven't killed recently is extremely good especially with all our % damage modifiers.Shield:
Prism allows us to use an extra 2 high levelled ( Anger & HOT ). With skyforths you will be able to also run HOI as well as an empower on your disc/wrath. Giving us a total of 6 auras. The shield also lets us cap resists and imo is better than a high ES shield since it gives us massive scaling by stacking auras.
Gloves: Thunderfist are great because they give us a free 5 link on KB , attack speed, and most importantly more flat lightning to scale with our massive amounts of % modifiers. You can certainly switch out thunderfists for a rare ES gloves but you will lose out on a lot of dps on KB, and some on barrage. I switch to these gloves mainly to prevent one-shots (face tanking max buff uber izaro) and the KB damage loss isn't noticeable on monsters there.

Jewels in terms of stat priority:
AS with wands
global crit multi
spelldmg with shield
AS with shield
spell dmg
projectile dmg
attack speed
attackspeed/castspeed

Why not inquisitor? isn't that better damage?

Inquisitor pretty much has slightly less damage than raider (and probably pathfinder) on bosses, because you lose out on your frenzy charges, and you have to sacrifice 8 nodes from start. This is all assuming you are using this tree I made. It's simply not worth going inquisitor simply because of how much move speed you lose, dodge, and perma ailment immunity (means less dps flasks/MS loss). Sure you can do extra damage making bosses go to - resists but it's just not worth it , especially since bosses don't have too much ele resist ( Shaper 40%, uber atziri 30%) it's just less dps, and also the inquisitor pen node isn't very helpful for trash clears. On the other hand, if you find a way to gather frenzy charges, then you'll be doing the same dps on trash, and about 10-20% more dmg on bosses, but how will you get frenzy for bosses then?

It's not as good as pathfinder, because of the extra proj and flask up-time/effect as well as raider due to frenzy charges (7 that give extra movespeed/AS/AD over base stats),and not to forget ailment immunity, dodge & dps gain from passives.

The penetration from inquisitor may seem powerful but only works on crit, and after some calculations on path of building it only gives 40% MORE damage, which is outweighed by raider's dps gain ( around 50% MORE, due to reasons listed before)

Is Pathfinder better than raider?

Raider gets just as much MS cause of ascendancies, probably more but don't quote me on that.

I made an analysis on PoB for pathfinder vs raider and raider is 1.47 million dps while PF is 1.38 million fully buffed on barrage (these are all with my gear), i'm not sure what the damage with wise-oak would do to those numbers however, since PoB doesn't seem to factor it in somehow. If you find a way to generate frenzy on PF then it would be very strong. Also, getting a +1 frenzy choir on raider would also make it very good, but it's there for anyone to play around, would be cool to see any new suggestions. Only factor not taken into account is the flask duration on PF, since flasks last longer it's probably a bit more dps - I just can't be asked playing flasks like the piano. I think once you get to the threshold where bosses melt, there won't be much difference.

It's up to you what you chose, I don't think there's much difference in both. They literally have 10k damage difference on bosses too lol, and it does count the extra proj from dying sun and all the flask effect and shit. However, since you have longer flask duration, you will deal more damage on bosses that don't melt easily, but this doesn't mean there isn't room for raider to catch-up.

This doesn't mean my setup has same dps as philo, since he uses skyforths & choir his damage is retarded. The only con is having low ES and relying fully on flasks to survive and sustain ur mana. It very much depends on your playstyle.
