[2.3] Myra Burning Vortex (CHEAP, 100% fire, AA, dual curse, Vaal Pact, Vaal righteous fire)

NOTE:
This build is heavily inspired by Foxtatic Hellfire Arc.

Please go to page 8 to look at Keemossi's version of the build with RF. Serious potential here!

Big thanks to Keemossi for all of his idea and contribution to make this build even better!

SHOWCASE VIDEO
T12 Overgrown Boss 1 shot

T12 Shipyard Boss 1 shot with enfeeble

T10 Plateau(old playstyle)


Edit: I didnt use orb of storm with elemental weakness curse on hit because I was certain I had enough damage. Harder bosses will require more setup: Orb of storm to proc elemental overload + curse on hit elemental weakness, either kill mobs or use Writhing Jar to gain Elemental Conflux, then Vaal RF for the 1 shot!

Damage Scaling

Our damage comes from:
-Initial Hit with Vortex (Fire)
-Ignite (Fire)
-Dot Ground from Vortex (Cold, sadly DoT damage cannot be converted)

Things that scale our damage(in order):
-Increased Elemental Damage (Best, Scale all 3 sources) ----------> Dorayani's Catalyst best in slot with up to 132% elemental damage. You can even drop Saffel to dual wield Doryani's Catalyst. Up to 264% elemental damage.
-Increased Cold Damage(DoT ground, initial hit)
-Increased Spell Damage(DoT ground, Initial Hit)
-Increased Area Damage(DoT ground, initial hit)
-Increased Fire Damage (Initial Hit and Ignite)
-Increased DoT (Ignite and DoT ground)

Damage that scales initial hit will results in bigger ignite.
Fire Damage double dip on Ignite.

Version 1 with Wyrmsign

Spoiler


Version 2 with Southbound

Spoiler


Wyrmsign vs Southbound
Wyrmsign: Better single target, make vaal RF 5L. Less clearspeed due to pyre ring destroys corpses(less effective prolif).
Southbound: More HP, make prolif works as expected, counter pyre ring drawback. Less single target, 4L for vaal Righteous Fire

Will you have mana issue if you turn off clarity?

It can be turned off for more mana unreserved but you might have to run a mana pot. To make it easy I just run clarity.

Updated a showcase video.

Edit: Just run a no regen map. Simply turned off Clarity and I didnt have any problems. Possibly can run a herald for utility. Cant bother to update link and gears atm. Might do so later.

Well thanks!
Currently, I'm running blasphemy+ele resistance, MOM with clarity. But I want to convert to your setup if there is no mana issue.

Elemental Weakness is a nice curse. Might even be better than flammability 'cause it will scale the DoT ground as well.
Don't you think liege of the primordial is better than beacon of ruin for this build?
why a rare belt and not a doryanis?
is this HC viable?

Any Leveling tips? Skill to start, weapons...

I'm testing Liege of the primordial now. Need a bit more mapping to see the result. With what I see right now, Liege of primordial is definitely better for single target, especially hard bosses like uber lab. However, Beacon of Ruin is better for clearing in general. Havent finished uber lab yet but if I do, I may end up getting both of them. Liege of primordial also gives more damage than Pendulum of Destruction.

I am leeching of warlord's mark, which gives 2% leech. Need leech on boot then I can drop warlord's mark and use doryani belt.

Just use 2 sceptre with spell damage/cold damage/fire damage. Vortex + controlled destruction + Increased AoE + Faster Casting is enough to get you through all contents till mapping. That's what I did in prophecy league.

Definitely hardcore viable. Build is tanky and has lot of life. Currently have 4.7k but im expecting about 5.5k+ once I finished getting the life wheel in scion and upgrade my gears. Might want to drop Vaal pact.
