Hello there,

So I wanted to share my own variation of this build :). First of all, thanks for the early theorycraft, it helped me to follow some way to go, I declined your build from your PoB.

First, we are playing CI, I can't imagine to play CI without Incandescent Hearth, it just negate 25% of ele damage, plus the chaos as extra damage on top, this way I don't needed the "Escape Artiste" ascendancy (no evasion on body armor, still stun immune with Cyclone), I prefered "Patient Reaper", it give me a ton shit of regen into pack, coupled with Energy leech support in my setup it's really strong when in the middle of packs, even with 2-3 rare arround.

I also prefered to play HoI + Cold to fire support than HoA + Hypotermia, still got chill/freeze/shatter and damage are the same for both setup so, my gems are now leveled, I'll keep this, but I think I'll find an enchanted helmet with aura reservation to add HoA soon.

Early game I used a rare staff with 100%+ increased cold damage, was better than every unique you can find, and from far cheaper, and Hrimmsorrow as gloves, gives a really good amount of damage.

So I don't know how to link my whole stuff, feel free to check my char if you want to, I guess that I have many way to improve it but I'm actually farming red map without big issues (still one shoted by randoms legions rare, like everyone I guess), but damage and tankyness feels ok atm, just need to scale and improve all of this the next days / weeks :).

I have been running the staff variant of this build since day 1 and have had no problems at all, soon as you pick up some staff dmg nodes + Disintegrator it becomes a blender. Only deaths came early due to bad flask setups and no CWDT setup lmao.

Am i better off getting a 6L carnal over Carcass? honestly prefer getting the AOE so thinking of buying a 6L Carcass.

Thanks for the guide its been alot of fun so far.

hey there,
just tried few things in pob.

why is the build based on cold/fire?
better scaling in late?

getting a lot more damage with convert to lightning and ele focus instead of hypothermia and added fire damage, also there are so many nice lightning nodes.

Hi all, I am pretty much getting there, but still lacking the last few bits, with Watchers eye and Taste of hate. But even if I put them in my PoB, it just becomes 1 million damage. What do I need, and not the least, how the hell, can i improve my shit to get potentially 11 million with my staff?
