Weapon: Look for a high accuracy weapon, preferably with high crit chance or crit dmg. +lvl to proj skills is also good. Attack speed isn't important. Phys or lightning damage are equal. Preferable use a spear with a high crit chance base, seaglass base is the best at 10% base crit.

Kitoko's Current are mandatory for this build to function, it's how you generate frenzy charges with Combat Frenzy. Without frenzies the build will feel significantly worse.

Lycosidae is not needed but it is your best in slot shield, so buy it when you can afford it.

You want the highest evasion chest you can afford, this is massive for your evasion which is your core defense.

for rings you want flat lightning damage or phys dmg to attacks with life/resis.

For your belt you want Str/life/resist. Headhunter or Ingenuity would be ideal if you can afford it.

For your helmet you want Accuracy/life/resist. Down the line you can go a Pure ES helmet and grab Subterfuge Mask.

Jewel or ring with mana on kill will solve your mana issues.

!!!!!Must use "Inhibitor" support gem on barrage or this wont work!!!!!

If you don't have 145 spirit then take off Cannibalism - You want at minimum 130 spirit.

The links are in order, so if you don't have max links takeout the last support gem listed.

Level/Quality priority are the same
Lightning Spear > Storm Lance > herald of thunder

Can use Fork over Deliberation if your damage on LS is high enough.

This build requires at least 6 ascendancy points

You need Critical strike/penetrate/Elemental infusion. Predatory Instinct is your last ascension.

For jewels look for a mixture of crit damage, crit chance, accuracy, projectile damage, attack damage or lightning damage.
Have one jewel with mana on kill to sustain your mana in maps.

How it Plays

For clear you move around and throw lightning spears. Do not spam your Lightning Spear as you only want to throw it if you have 10+ Volt stacks.

For single target you want to make sure you're always using Barrage with Storm Lance on cooldown. If you have a spare frenzy from Sniper's Mark Profusion, then throw another non-barraged storm lance. It should look something like this.

pre-throw Storm Lance > Sniper's Mark > Barrage > Storm Lance(with frenzy).
After that you're just rotating snipers mark/barrage/storm lance
For higher single target dps, put Profusion with Sniper's Mark

For pinnacle bosses you can takeout combat frenzy and rhoa, this will give you enough spirit to run cast on crit, which will automate your snipers mark, making the rotation a lot easier.

Cast on Critical/ Sniper's Mark / Profusion/ Impetus/ Ingenuity - This will be your setup for pinnacle bosses.

Optional setup for more boss damage:
Have a weapon swap with Effigy of Cruelty. Then have a Orb of Storms with weapon swap 2, combined with Inevitable Critical, Pinpoint Critical and Font of Rage. This will give you a lot more crit on bosses, would only do this for pinnacle content. (I would also get a wand with cast speed on the weapon swap if you have the int)

How it Works

Quest rewards to take:

1) Mana regen from flask
2) stun threshold from venom reward - act 3
3) Life recovery from flask
4) Chaos res from venom reward - act 6

How do I generate/maintain frenzy charges?
Frenzies are generated when you electrocute a monster. Combat Frenzy will generate the frenzy and then Storm Lance or Lightning Spear will consume it. This is why you don't want to spam Lightning Spear while clearing and only use it with 10-20+ Volt charges.

Make sure your combat frenzy is qualitied and has Profusion in the links.
