I decided to make a Poet's Pen Arc/LW after watching Mathil's Inquisitor. I looked around just to see different ascendancies/variations of the build and think this is probably the best one. This is my first league so I've just been making a bunch of characters to high red-tier maps and I really wish I found out about this before I started :P
Really love how you combined so many different mechanics like multiple curses off of items rather than gems and achieving low-life to get so many auras up and just generally learned a lot of mechanics from this guide. If PP doesn't get nerfed, this will for sure by my next league starter.
P.S. I loved your discussions with people who didn't bother to read the OP and just expected to be spoon-fed xD. If I were you, I would have just not replied. Keep up the good work!

Poet Pens getting Div Card?
good news, or bad news? lol?
I think those PP VD Zerphi's immortal builds got too much attention recently and Poet's Pens are probably gonna pay for it.

Yeah, maybe. We will see. They did nerf Zerphis too before and look at the state we are in now. ^^'

As long as poet's pen are still viable it doesn't matter if they got nerf?
Also food for thoughts, CoC on frenzy linked to another spell ? :D

By other spell, you mean another Ball Lightning right ? :)
Because since it's another source of trigger, we can use two times the same spell. Well the problem would probably be that 3.75 APS is not enough to consistently proc CoC on top of the fact that we don't have that much crit for attacks with this build, but it's still more balls !

This was asked before - it isn't worth it if you run an Indigon - giving up the two gems for CoC + Spell in the Frenzy Chain hurts more then you gain by it.
If you run a Vertex/Rare helmet you can do it though for a bit of damage. And yeah, Ball Lightning would be best since it also benefits from the Multiple Projectiles Support in the same chain. I would probs still not run it and would prefer a more defensive/ultility 6-link.

Even with the changes on CoC?
Damn that's unfortunate :/
Could've been a meme build with a headhunter :D

No, sadly not. But maybe there will be nerfes towards Indigon and that makes it more viable. I kinda feel like it will always be a tad clunky though with the relativly low critchance on Frenzy. Its one proc every 2 seconds or so? not really all that hot tbh.
I think CoC is way better suited for the new Ice Skills (like nova which casts on already casted/traveling frostbolts etc) which have inherent synergy with that kind of setup. Whispering Ice might be a really good Item for Builds with this stuff.
