My Witch Monk After Act 6

This is the skill tree for my Witch Monk at the end of the game.

My first weapon tree is based around spell damage and curses and my second tree is based around staff skills and elemental damage.

For Solo I think it does pretty well, but I joined a group and we speed through Act6 finishing it before I could even say "Hey does stabbing the heart curse us?"

I'm still using the staff I made in Act3 and I havent found anything better yet. But I can still hold my own, even if my stats are terrible. I'm now on the look for better gear.

For my next points I'll be investing in those Evasion nodes and then Chaos Damage nodes but theres not very many chaos skills in the game yet Hex Blast is about it so I'll take those nodes later.

I havent chosen my ascendancy yet as the two current Witch ascendancies are terrible. And Id rather not choose and ascendacy that makes my character suicide.

Very interesting. Can you provide a clearer skill tree, please?

This is the plan

That link is too long so I put a break in it.

I've taken all the phys nodes, all the melee nodes, all the spell nodes, all the evasion nodes, Basically anything that adds damage. That tree was when I was level 65 so Im still working on getting the last two elemental nodes and then the lightning penetration nodes, and then chaos nodes (Ill leave those till last since theres only one usefull spell that does chaos damage).

Despite taking any node in the witch and monk tree that has anything to do with damage, I still only do 3000-4000 dps, which at Act 6 is pathetic. So it must be my gem set up and my gear.

Despite playing since launch I've only seen 1 medium and 1 high quality jewelers orbs (and they were snapped up almot immediately by other players, the loot distribution time is way too short) so all my skills can only have 3 supports.

Not that it matters because GGG have limited support gems to ONE PER CHARACTER, and that means I have to either make 1 realy good skill or spread the damage out between skills. I hate it.

I will try your set up. Thanks

I've been trying to turn this into a cast on shock build but she just cant build those shock levels fast enough and I loose al the shocks I've built when I die. Getting One-Shot is pretty common in POE. Desspite having higher evasion chance. Im still using the same gear in end game as I was on Act3. And my evasion chance is only 45%

---------

Now that Im level 73, My evasion has dropped down to 28%... you know, just to make it extra difficult for higher level players.
