Spark. We then transition into abusing

Our initial setup is relying on juicing up Spark providing both solid mob clear and good bossing damage. 
Frost Bomb will both reduce enemies resistances while also generating Cold Infusions while 
Flame Wall will add even more damage. We also will be using Orb of Storms. This allows us to generate Lightning Infusions for our Flame Wall as well as adding some extra damage. Its also great for clearing out packs of enemies.

Make sure to check vendors every time you go back to town until you get a decent weapon!
We want to be able to wear Armor bases as these provide by far the best defenses. To achieve this, try to use items with Str or Int rolls. You can also get extra attributes from the passive tree if you need to. If you can't get enough strength, you can wear armor/es pieces instead.

Important Drops
It's very important to get a level 2 and then level 3 Spark as soon as possible! These levels both significantly increase damage while also adding more projectiles. Make sure to do the league mechanic in Red Vale to get level 2 Spark before the boss.
Also make sure you clear the Scarecrow in the Crop Circle in the Farmlands to get a level 4 skill gem, to be used on Ice Nova.

How it Plays
This build utilizes synergies between spells to deal devasting amounts of damage. For an explanation of mechanics, see "How it Works". For a full breakdown of your rotation and skill priorities, check the descriptions in the Skill Gems section.
How it Works
Act 1
There's two main setups for this build. The first is relying on buffing Spark to stomp through Act 1. We use Frost Bomb to apply exposure and generate a Cold Infusion, which adds a ton of damage to spark. Flame Wall buffs the damage even more. Finally we use Orb of Storms, which helps with both boss kills and AOE. Orb of Storms also generates a Lightning Infusion to buff our Flame Wall even more.
Acts 2 to End Game
At the end of Act 1 we swap to our main setup, which uses two main combos. In single target, we use Ember Fusillade + Orb of Storms. This is an incredibly powerful combo because Orb of Storms will deal damage every time we cast a spell, which each application of Ember Fusillade counts as a spell cast. On top of this, the Orb of Storms will get consumed after full stacking Ember Fusillade, causing it to generate a Lightning Infusion. We can pick up this infusion before the Ember Fusillade casts, which will empower all of the projectiles. These two spells synergize perfectly for incredible boss damage.
In AOE we use the combination of Ice Nova + Snap. Ice Nova freezes enemies and consumes Cold Infusions to do extra damage. Snap pops the freezes to deal massive damage and create Cold Infusions. These two spells combo off of each other to deal incredible damage.
