Looks cool. Could you please provide it in a way that it can be imported in PoB. Pixels and the amount of nodes and stuff makes it very hard for me to import the tree myself. And I don't count my own lack of concentration :)

Sorry for late response, here's a non-img version:

how could i improve my current build? having a bit of trouble with bosses and just got oneshot by izaro

I agree with Mordred, you have still a lot of levels to get, chest needs upgrading and your life on gear could be recrafted for %ES. In an update quite some time ago I also explained how GMP is no longer a good gem to use, compared to Added Lightning - this also makes getting right colors easier.

Do you by chance have any suggestions?

I would replace Atziri's Promise with Wise Oak since your resistances are in order, this will also help with Ele Weakness maps.
I'd recolor your gloves to RGGB for Pierce gem, and replace amulet with a higher dps rare. My amulet, for example, would be up to 17% more dps over yours.
Stygian belt is probably going to be more efficient, that is, even with a blue jewel with just 50 ES, you only lose 25-30 total ES from implicit, which isn't that much. And Stygian means additional free damage socket.
Throatseeker is going to be better then Wandslinger at this point.
I don't think Tempered Mind is worth picking up, loss of Int means lower ES.

Last thing:
I'm a big fan of Beast Fur Shawl, I really think that physical damage is probably more scary for this build, so extra ES helps more (armour doesn't do a lot in this amount). BFS also provides a mini-Vaal Pact on top, which is very strong as long as you don't get one-hit-KOed. Of course, changing from one 6L unique to another takes time since it might not sell within 10 minutes, and then the guy you want the armour from will be afk, so you can ignore this point. I've seen people having success with Incandescent Heart, but I haven't seen many people who struggled with survivability while wearing BFS, for example, so in my opinion it's a better armour in general. But remember, personal bias could be clouding my memory/judgement. Just because I wrote the thread doesn't mean I'm always right :D

Hey Bristoling,

I had gone and spent some currencies on comparing CI Wanders a like.

Below are some of the statistics that could be of us implementing into the guide.

Lv95 Occultist
https://pastebin.com/pt9iznMc

Survivability 5/5
Mapping 4/5
Speed 3/5
Bossing 4/5

Lv93 Pathfinder ( Theorycrafted to Lv95 for comparison )
https://pastebin.com/5rbeQfhK
Survivability 3/5
Mapping 5/5
Speed 4/5
Bossing 3/5

For Pathfinder KB ( DOFL -> KB -> GMP -> EDWA )




Swaps for Mapping/Bossing below ( Not necessary )


TL:DR

Occultist will not map as fast as a pathfinder nor sustain flask that efficiently.
But can take big hits and leech back in time.
Pathfinders has higher dps compared to Occultist due to maintain flask charges and consistently having flask on during Uber Elder/Shaper Fights.

Wow, gratz on reaching 10k ES with Occultist. I 100% agree, Pathfinder will be faster in maps due to better and longer flasks.

If you want, you could push higher dps with Occultist if you sacrificed around 1k ES: https://pastebin.com/vHvW9PmT

Truly impressive gear, and fair assessment :) Ty

Hello,

I'm trying to figure out what steps I can take to further optimize this build. I've been having problems killing bosses and clearing higher level maps. What should I change on my current character right now to push it over the edge?

Hello guys
I don't know which one should I go
Thanks

1) Changing to quality gems will greatly increase your dps.

2) Id suggest looking for a wand with the mod Damage penetrates lightning resistance this should help greatly on bosses.

3) You didn't pick up point blank this is major for killing bosses.

4) The Es on your chest is quite low for a rare chest try to get something 400+

5) Your Kraken Spiral ring doesn't have a crafted mod on it you can craft add lightning damage to attacks onto it.

6) Craft max es on your ammy its small but every bit helps.

7) Change your belt it only has +1 max es you should be looking for something 30+ min

8) You should consider upgrading your jewels they provide a large dmg boost.

Kinetic blast and barrage don't count as spells.

Thanks again Mordred for quality response.

I don't think you can craft up to 42% Elemental damage with attacks on a wand. It would be better if you provided some more context or ingame screenshot.
For example, I cannot see if any of the mods are already crafted, apart from "Can have multiple crafted mods". So I'd just remove crafted mod and craft attack speed, which of course won't work if you already crafted critical strike chance.

Personally I wouldn't multimod a wand unless it was one of these: http://poe.trade/search/ooarahenanorot


You can achieve it by buying a magic one, regaling it, annuling if you hit a bad mod and just multimodding it. But to be honest, I'm pretty sure for the cost of 2ex multimod, 10c (wand cost per try), Regal and Annulment orb you can just buy a better wand outright.

Awesome build man !

Any way this build can be transformed or adapted to a MF version?
