This should be considered a work in progress. Please contribute to making it better if you can! :) I'm going to start testing this build soon, but I got the idea off of the 1339 fireball shotgun build

Whoops, posted the wrong skill tree. Post has been updated.

Teh bumpz
|
|

Arc without Chain? I guess it's only a tini-tiny sith lord :D
|
|
|
I thought about chain, I guess crit gives you a lot of damage, but I didn't like the idea of 50% damage reduction. Does the damage balance out?

Updated break down of the skill tree

Added bandits and unique gear options

All the bumps. Feedback?

Seems like a good build, I'm working on something similar in my own noob way, so nice to get some guidance/verification it's not bullshit what I'm doing. :)
But one thing that I saw you doing in the passive tree. You're taking a few nodes with critical strike. As in just critical strike, not spell critical strike. If I understand correctly, critical strike only affects attacks, not spells. But I point out again, I'm a noob. ^^ |

" From the Wiki: http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Critical_Strike it seems that it's a global critical strike chance. There is the one passive point which only gives spell crit, but everything else should add to global crit chance (includes spells and weapons). The maker of the 1339 build also takes them, so I have faith that they work :) |
