Build Guide

MAX CDR on every piece recommended except neck where you want Fire%, double Crit + socket.

EB Skilldmg on Shoulders and Chest Armor.

Other than that pretty standard rolls.


Gameplay:


Spam EB


Always use Arcane Torrent to:

-Buff your Dmg and Toughness (via Taeguk, Mantle of Channeling and the skill itself)

-Autocast EB and BH based on your CDR (don't need to cast BH yourself)

-Ignite Mobs (EB, Torrent, Magic Weapon)

-proc Arcane Power on Crit.


Teleport when necessary. That's it.


Keep in mind it's FB. So find elites and then fight.


Groups

For Groups I would recommend swapping Halo of Arlyse for the Obsidian Ring.

With some optimizations (Arcane Power issues) you can In-Geom-like spam EB. But Groups don't want you with non-Archon builds so don't try it ;D


Miscellaneous

Skilldmg (Woh, Shoulders, Chest Armor), Blackhole, Taeguk and Magic Weapon are all in the same buff category so they're all additive :(

That's why changing Taeguk is a viable alternative (e.g. for Gogok)

I usually run with Blackhole: Event Horizon but Spellsteal obviously is a tiny bit more dmg. Decent in high density.


Casually cleared 80 with this (non-ancient Woh, only 79% Skilldmg overall on gear).


I'm pretty sure I can get into the high 80s with some optimizations. I feel like it's one of the strongest non-Archon builds you can run atm.
