How it Plays

  • Hold Chain Lightning
  • Cast Unstable Currents/Familiar/Ice Blades off cooldown
  • Pick up Crackling Energy for Convulsions
  • Keep enemies grouped for Axial AoE explosion
  • Evade Teleport as needed
  • Cast Fireball to execute enemies sub 20%
  • Other Lightning spells on bar are solely for Elemental Synergies and are not to be cast

How it Works

FAQ

Amulet Passives
Inner Flames, Permafrost and Glass Cannon are interchangeable. So you can use any of these passives on your amulet.

Elixirs/Incense
Advantage II (Attack Speed/Lucky Hit Chance)

  • Harlequin Crest Variant: Soothing Spices, Sage's Whisper/Spiral Morning, Reddamine Buzz/Song of the Mountain (if not armor capped)
  • Perdition Variant: Soothing Spices, Sage's Whisper, Song of the Mountain (if not armor capped)

Remaining Paragon Points?
Once Paragon board is complete, put the remaining points into Intelligence around the board

No Starless?

  • Put Aspect of Recharging and/or Aspect of Elemental Acuity on ring and/or amulet.

Shako vs Perdition?
Shako (Harlequin Crest) is tankier and will allow you to infinitely teleport. Perdition is higher damage, but you cannot teleport as smoothly as Shako.

No Mythic Helm?
Use a regular legendary helm with a defensive aspect like Snowveiled.
-or-
Use Godslayer Crown

No Shroud of False Death?
Use Raiment, but be wary of your health. No need to socket Kry if using Raiment. Can use Ohm for more damage or one of your choice.
-or-
Use a legendary chest piece with a defensive aspect like Snowveiled or Everliving.
