what is the reason for not going crit with this build? I kinda feel like crit could push this a lot further while of course being a lot more expensive.

Check my POB, i pushed more with Cluster Jewels and got about 8.4m Total Damage

So I rolled this build this league, having trouble coming up with the shaper weapons. Did you craft them or buy?

you're stretching yourself too much from getting cast speed, duration and crit, you will lose out damage, hence non crit would be ideal for penance brand since we don't hit a lot

Amazing build man, have managed to clear Shaper, Elder, Uber Elder, Sirus Awakener 8 all deathless. Heaps of fun and when that single target damage pops oh my.. so satisfying!

I also added clusters with doryanis lesson, feels good.

Which doubled influence items would you suggest? +2 Amu doesnt work, like mentioned in the guide.

Thanks for the guide!
I have adapted it to a tankier 1h+shield version with glancing blows since the damage did not seem to be an issue. Just finished crafting these. :D

I couldn't find any weapon to buy, so i crafted the best i got, but it could be much better.

Yo have you tried Divergent Swiftbrand Support? And how would the increased hit rate above 75% effect the calculation?

And also what would the benefit be, if I annoint Runesmith (to skip the smaller uration nodes) and lower the brand duration to scale more cast speed before reaching 20 stacks?

Haven't tried it, but it should increase the stacking speed of the brand

Basically your dps increase because of lesser duration = detonate faster = more dps

Hi

I'm trying it right now (lower brand duration), feels good. Hard to say though.
But I feel like bossing is much better now.

I switched to use Dark Arts again and Menta Rapidity and some CastSpeed here and there. Feels very smooth right now, I can spam cast flame dash and the additional mana reg allows me to drop all the mana reserve nodes. Brings me down to allow me using Phase Acrobatics.

Playing Assa right now, to try it. Mapping feels great. Some Anti Synergy with Power Charges though. The +more dmg against vs rare uniq feels also great.

With assa I only reach 16 stacks right now, with Trickster I could be at 19 with 1.01 Brand Duration. Also with Divergent Swiftbrand every brand feels so instant.

But it confuses me still on how to optimize it.

Damn... the last 2 weeks I tried 3 builds. And everytime I came back to this one and every time I recognize just how nice it is.

Do you mind checking my pob, what would you upgrade ?
