This variant is used to start stacking your critical strike chance after finishing your second ascendancy and picking up Sunder the Flesh. This will be used to finish the campaign and interludes.

Spark is our bread and butter ability to clear packs. Spark should be your priority for %Quality for projectile speed.

Use Frost Bomb, Elemental Weakness and Sigil of Power on Bosses or rare enemies to apply exposure and reduce resistances.

Comet will be used in our Cast on Critical which mostly will be used and needed to melt bosses.

Sigil of Power comes from your offhand weapon Chiming Staff. Cast this ability to increase your damage by a large amount. *IMPORTANT NOTE - Put your other spells on weapon set (1) so that you do not keep using the chiming staff after casting sigil in weapon set (2).
