Is the build still viable in 3.22?

not really, damage has been nerfed too much

Been a while since I played this but this would have been pretty great with the Archmage Support Buff. The added 100ms cooldown on it now though.

Tested it, the mana issues with it is non-existent if we go for Hierophant. Trying to PoB it at the moment if this will be actually viable.

The Biggest problem would be CDR huh, have to self cast Temporal chains.
52% CDR (25% Terror, 18-20% Belt, 3x 3% CDR Abyss Jewel)

Also saw someone playing this build on Hiero.

so tried this out a bit, cant seem to really get the damage to a good point, its like low to mediocre at best, and the tankiness is kinda eh. can get fire conversion hiero to nearly the same spot with more tankiness without any mana stacking lol

thinking about going pathfinder or assassin with new unholy might, i just really dont wanna do another evasion setup of the build, much rather go true tankiness as Armour/resists

"The Perfect Agony Keystone Passive Skill no longer causes Modifiers to Critical Strike Multiplier to also apply to Damage over Time Multiplier for Ailments from Critical Strikes at 50% of their Value, or provides 30% less Damage with Hits. Instead, it now causes Damage over Time Multiplier for Ailments to be equal to Critical Strike Multiplier, causes Critical Strikes to not deal extra damage, and makes it so Non-Critical Strikes cannot inflict Ailments."

Poison variant back with 100% crit?

New Perfect Agony. That's the first thing I thought about when I saw that changed but then they changed the:

Increased Duration Gem > More Duration Gem now.

From what I've seen on POB, increased duration gem is better than more when it comes to Twister since we're stacking so much reduced duration on the tree/gear.

Example on POB: More Duration = 0.2s Twister Duration vs Increased Duration = 0.8s Twister Duration


Maybe there's a work around here. Or maybe it's just more dead now than ever.
