Hey man love the build and content! Curious though i was running the paragon board of another fellow content creator barricade and he used all the same glyphs but fit in one extra board to use control for the 20% multi. I switched to yours to compare and my stats relatively stayed the same except i got about 40% more crit damage from yours. Just curious if the 40% crit damage would outweigh an extra glyph?

If you see this comment can you explain what is speeding up the cooldown of your Lightning Spears so much? I've copied as much of your build as possible but I'm not getting that kind of speed on my Spears.

[@caiquems2431]

Great Job Mekuna !! Only one question please 😅 how yor spear have 7 sec cooldow ? Masterworking 2 times in CDR on harle and tal rasha is enought?

[@bymathz]

Hi Mekuna, so im playing the exact same build, but using 1h sword with offhand, so i can roll ele dmg on focus for the 4th Tal Rasha's bonus. What do you think about it? I mean, i tought Tyrael could proc the 4th element, but in this vid i see you have only 3 stacks. I dont have Tyrael and Shako so i couldnt test my limits, but with this setup im clearing t8 hordes with ease. have almost 1.800% crit damage % atm, perfect rolled and masterworked sword, got so lucky xD

[@little_fluffy_clouds]

I haven’t noticed Tyrael’s Might proccing the fourth element for Tal Rasha’s ring, but Andariel’s Helm definitely does with its poison effect or you can temper elemental surge with poison or shadow element on your weapon or offhand to proc it. At the late end game, there are better options, though

[@Xephaholic]

YES ! Finally someone who says the same stuff. Im trying to understand why Charged bolts too...wtf....? could have been pumped to others... zzz

[@Joseph-vn2zj]

@@Xephaholic When I was looking at each skill applied, I questioned this in the beginning too. Then I realized, unstable currents applies core skills so I believe it uses the bonuses that follow that skill. Hence, you don't need to apply it to your skill bar to press. I saw someone else mention this too which I think sounds right too. In a sense, almost same idea using ice blades enhancement without applying to use to the bonus. For Charged bolt, UC is clicked and it will start randomly casting the extended modifiers from core, conj, and mastery(without having to add it to your SB or enchantment slot, almost like a free skill cast charge). I havent really seen Mekuna confirm this but this is my only logical explanation after reading this tree over and over lol I hope that may give you an idea(im uncertain too).

[@chesternelly]

@perditakauzo @Xepholic . Joseph pretty much nailed it. Read the description on unstable currents. Casting shock skills has a chance to cast core, conjugations, or mastery skill. So basically you have enough CD to where your UC is on a very short cooldown so you’re constantly using it and casting LS therefore casting all the others. To answer about CB , the 3rd tier on CB is damage reduction. You don’t need any other skill so it’s 3 points used for more damage and damage reduction.

[@seldic]

Awesome build, but I do see that you are not using Tibaults and Fist of Fate in this build? You did chuck them into your Planner? I am a little confused....You have Unstable currents equipped and it triggers only with Shock skill, but no Shock skills are equipped? What do you think about Chain Lightning and Axial Conduit pants? I am lost now....LOL

I agree, he also has 1600 int and I have 950 using planner with all mythic and uniques. Some explanation would be nice especially bc I take about 5-6 minutes on tier 7 bosses themselves, but I’m also not using my own builds so I guess I can’t complain too much 😂
