ARMAGEDDON MAGE! - CoC Comet Cold Spark! 99% 1 Button Build - Low Budget Friendly

This build utalized Call of the Brotherhood to convert all lightning dmg spark deals to cold, guaranteeing that we are constantly spawning Lighting Infusions through Siphon Elements.
Mask of the Sanguimancer is further combined with a source of instant leech like the Heart of the Well unique or Atziri's Acuity. You shoul only swap to Atziri's Acuity once you can reach 80% crit chance since its leech is only working when you crit. You also need quite a lot of good gear to cap your resistances. Use a rare set of gloves until you can safely equip Atziri's Acuity.

This build is very safe to use due to freeze and chill. We also use Cast on Critical with Snap to generate even more infusions and to cast Flame Wall which ignites our sparks. For uniques and bosses we are using Elemental Weakness as well as Frost Bomb to lower their resitances, which boosts your dmg immensely.

Budget: ~5-10div

CoC Comet Budget: 20-150 div

Spirit Requirements: This build requires 37 Spirit with 20% quality on CoC and the Efficient Inscriptions notable passive. Without those you will need 100+30 at the lowest minimum an 160 with Convalescence.

You can play this setup without CoC, but you need the Call of the Brotherhood and Siphon Elements with 20% quality for the build to function.

Annoint: Savoured Blood

Heart of the Well: Extra dmg, instant leech, crit dmg, spell crit dmg, all max res; drop instant leech once you transtion to an Atziri's Acuity.

Is this build good for leveling?
Given it is based around having a lot of critchance, no it is not. You can level as as spark character just fine, but you will have to manually get infusions going.

Weaponset2:
We use a chiming staff to gain access to Sigil of Power, a dmg boosting ability. It is not required but a nice free addition to the build.

You spam Spark with Frost Bomb whenever you see a group to pop. Elemental Weakness should be used on bosses or any monster that you want to clear asap.

Use Convalescence to keep your energy shield up.

Thats about it, its very simple.

Call of the Brotherhood converts lightning dmg to cold. Spark chills and freezes enemies. Elemental Siphon generates infusions based on the ailment, which is cold, which spawns a cold infusion which is used by Spark to deal 3x dmg and shoot out more projectiles.

Due to the high amount of critical strike chance and the bloodmage Sunder the Flesh we are able to very easily get to ~80% crit chance. This allows us to use Cast on Critical with Flame Wall as well as Comet improving our dmg and generating more infusions.

Atziri's Acuity in combination with Blood Magic either trough the keystone or Mask of the Sanguimancer allows you to become a never dying killing maschine. Mask of the Sanguimancer in combination with a leech Heart of the Well is also great, especially early to safe on budget.

Once we swap to Comet we will fully rely on Siphon Elements to generate all our infusions. Flame Wall uses lightning, Comet fire and Spark cold. We need extra lightning dmg and extra fire dmg through Flame Wall as well as our gear to generate those infusions. Cold infusions for Spark are generated automatically.
Given Spark is a lightning skill converted to cold and Comet is a cold spell we will need spell lvls in the build. <

Extra Elemental Dmg:
Extra dmg applies after all scaling and is not converted. Extra fire gives you the chance to ignite target and extra lightning gives you a chance to shock target. This allows for infusion generation through Siphon Elements.
