[R.I.P.] life Mjolner done right by Rico - Juggernaut version - R.I.P. thx to "balancing" policy

I was finally able to upgrade to a 6L Kingsguard today, fortunately me being terrified of Righteous Fire frees up alot of utility space for me. I understand that RF boosts spell damage but honestly at this point it makes no difference to me wether I kill the boss in 8 seconds or 11 seconds, the builds just stupidly overpowered when you get all the pieces in place. I am done for the moment, I just need to upgrade my Opal Ring, this ones a placeholder, heres my loadout now;



The only things I do differently are Devoto's inplace of Scolds and on my body I run 6 links with Culling strike and use my boots to run Vengenace + Curse on Hit + Elemental Weakness and store my flame golem there in the lone socket.

Obviously Scolds and Righteous Fire are more spell damage but for me this is just far FAR more comfortable and everything already melts. I also went to the righthand side on the skill point tree to compensate for some spell damage, below elemental overload I went right to Occultist's Dominion and followed that south to the 16% Spell Damage node, going over there is also nice b/c it lets you pick up the Heart and Soul Nodes (massive HP/MP%).

Love the build, im a filthy casual on Standard though, idk how hard this stuff is going to be to get on the leagues.
Finally completed (more or less) the build in abyss:



@Rico
in this char i achieved 4.65 APS with some modifications: instead of picking the quick recovery cluster i went to the berserking cluster to get more attack speed and i put some jewels with some attack speed (around 22% in total) and put a devoto's and bam! hit the sweet spot, the cyclone spins visibly faster and i am sadly getting some crashes due to the speed lol

But its not clear in the guide if i will get 5 discharges per second without a TFU, can you clarify this?
Without tfu belt you dont need 4.5+ aps, you will be doing max 4 discharges without that bwlt, it is fine to have 3.6-3.9 cyclone aps without tfu belt.

For the sockets in the Mjolner, is it better to have:

1. Discharge + Controlled Destruction + Concentrated Effect

OR

2. Discharge + Controlled Destruction + Elemental Focus

When I put it into Path of Building, it seems to say Concentrated Effect does slightly more damage?

Am I missing something important?

Thank you.
For regular map bosses cd + conc eff, for shaper/guardian ef + conc eff.

I84 Shaper belts can roll (16–20)% increased Cooldown Recovery Speed and I80 Shaper boots can roll (10–15)% increased Cooldown Recovery Speed. Don't think I saw this mentioned

Yeah just saw it a few hours ago on Reddit. That's pretty much best in slot for this build. 17+% CDR and
4,5-4,7 APS and voila - there you go with 5 Discharges/sec again like last league - nice.

but if there is a sweet spot for aps surely there is another value for cooldown speed
i am testing with a 14% and i can feel the difference but i dont know if it is really 5 discharges/s
anyone with more experience? this is my first mjolner build

if any1 is curious you can add me to look

Eventually I will switch to a shaper belt when I find one with high cooldown recovery and a strong life roll, it will be great getting another health boost and it should be affordable b/c I/we dont rely on the waist for any resists, all my resistances are overcapped from my passives, jewels, 20% on voll's amulet etc. Looks like exciting news.
