gz on build of the week sir! build looks HC viable, you can confirm?

Why thank you!

Yes, it's HC viable, but I say that cautiously because I am not much of a HC player. However, I can tell you that it's a very stable build (this is no glass canon and I have not died in a long time), and many users on YouTube and Reddit felt it would work in HC. The two problems are leveling (I started this build around level 80 with an old character so I don't know the best way to level, although I feel like it would be pretty straight forward with Cleave) and desync (every build faces this; counter with potion management and knowing when to run/quit).

hi i have a chest that has 5L ... What gem should i remove ty

Are you asking what gems to use in a 5L? What colors do you have?

Shoot for Cleave + Weapon Elemental Damage + Multistrike + Faster Attacks + Added Lightning Damage. The problem is that those colors are really hard to get on Queen of the Forest, so you have other options like Added Cold Damage and Culling Strike.

Cool, then for the most dps (without resorting to Concentrated Effect, that is) you'll want Cleave + Weapon Elemental Damage + Faster Attacks + Added Cold Damage + Added Lightning Damage. You can also try Multistrike instead of WED (it's more fun), Culling Strike instead of Added Cold Damage, or Increased Area of Effect (if you haven't hit Amplify on the tree yet) instead of Added Lightning Damage.

Nice build. I am a really big fan of elemental cleave build since their era in cb.

Since you should have a big part of physical damage from the weapons, did you try to convert a part of it with the phys to lightning gem?

The physical damage from the weapons is fairly low. It's plenty for mana leech, and it gets a little better if you take the melee nodes by the Templar start, but it wasn't high enough for me to consider Physical to Lightning.

I just tested with a lvl 19 (no qual) Phys to Lightning, and the dps is 45.1k (in comparison to 48.2k with Added Lightning). I'll let you know how close they get once I get it qual'd, but Added Lightning is probably better even if the tooltip dps is lower because of the extra chance to shock and shock duration quality bonus. With that said, I actually use Lightning Penetration more than Added Lightning these days.

Hi Tempada, I really like your build. Is there by any chance that it works with a templar as your starting class?

Thanks! Yes, you can start as a Templar and do well there, but it might be a little trickier since you won't get much evasion or any dodge on the tree until late game, plus you'll miss out on the Ranger's 8% attack speed node.
