I have an update about how i'm going now, i would recommend to either go arctic armour/grace or haste, herald of ash doesn't give that big of a boost to be worth it.

And arctic armour does avoid tons of dmg.

Doesn't arctic armour only give defences against phys & fire when you're standing still?

Well, you are standing still while attacking. Which is also when you typically recieve the most damage. Also, don't underestimate the chill from the chilled ground. Slowing enemies down can be very helpful. Overall, I can see how it is a good defensive boost for 25% mana reservation. With a Quill Rain you have more than enough clear speed, so Herald of Ash really doesn't do much at all.

Different question: I am of course aware that Xoph's is much better. But I was wondering how big the difference is exactly. I am in a situation where I can either afford a Xoph's and mediocre rares or a Yolk of Suffering and good to very good rares.

So either Yolk + a ton of WED or Xoph's and no WED on my rares. ALso maybe a bit less life on gear.

I am tending towards going Yolk for now. Shock, Ignite, and sometimes Chill from Arctic Armour means straight up 10-15% more damage. Add to that the Shock effect from our big hits and I feel offensively it would be "good enough" to tackle red maps. Of course, Xoph's would be what I farm towards as it clearly is much better.

Any opinions?

Well Xoph's frees up something like 16 passive points from not having to go for AoF which is a huge buff, allowing you to pick up more life, more crit and quality of life stuff like flask and movement speed nodes. Just my 2 cents tho
