[HC] Raiz's Vaal molten shell Build (100 % uptime on vaal molten shell)

This is my fourth topic like this. I'm making it because many people have been asking the same questions on my stream and hopefully it will help out some people :). I apologize in advance for my english/grammar/unproffesionalism (??) but I'll do my best and hopefully it won't be too terrible! Special thanks to Odir who came up with the initial idea for the build and allowed me put my touch on it !:)

--------------
PROS
-Almost uncomperable clear speed. Like most prolif ignite builds its opop :)

-Great survivability. 20 + second immortal calls on CWDT + life leech with vaal pact makes you completely immune to physical damage and reflect.

-Super cheap. You can honestly do whatever with this build and its gonna work :) The only problem for some people might be getting a 6l but for me tabula rasa or just a 5l without iron will still works great. To get a 20 % Vaal molten shell you have to corrupt a 20 % molten shell which might be very random. I got 2 of them out of 4 tries.

- Maps. You love them. Bigger mob density/more mobs which you always want in a map results in faster clear speed.

- Easy lvling. I lvled with flameblast and from lvl 31 i switched to the main build and started using vaal molten shell with a tabula rasa.


--------------
CONS


- Getting the initial souls for vaal molten shell might be a bit annoying at times. Bosses can be random sometimes too depending on your gear.


------------


SKILLS

Helm 4l - Cast when damage taken / Enduring cry / Increased duration / Immortal call. The lvl of CWDT is completely personal taste. Some people might even not use this because if your enduring cry is on CD and IC gets triggered through CWDT you will get barely any duration on your IC. Your choice honestly :) Im just lazy so i use it.

Searing touch or doryanis catalyst(if you got the moneys) - Flameblast / Spell echo / Fire pen(if doryanis) or ele prolif / iron will (if 5l Searing). All of this depends on your budget/league :) Obviously doryani's is prefered if you have the money.

Gloves 4l Shackles of the wretched - Immortal call / Increased duration / Faster casting / Temporar chains. Most important slot for this build. Shackles with TC are completely necessary and the IC is for all you self-cast people who despise CWDT :)

Boots 4l - Enduring cry / Flammability / Reduced mana / Faster casting

Chest 6l - Vaal molten shell / Increased AOE / Iron will / Life leech / Ele prolif / Increased duration. Your main concern. I was using a tabula and i was fine. If for some reason you feel squishy and cant afford a 6l just use a 5l without iron will. YOUR VAAL MOLTEN SHELL HAS TO BE 20 % QUALITY!



-------------------
GEAR

gloves/quiver/helm : resists/life/armour

Q&A

(this will be updated everytime i get a good question)


Q : What bandits ?
A : norm - oak / cruel - skill point / merc - oak


Q : Do i need to get quality on my gems?
A : you HAVE to have a 20 % vaal molten shell. You can get one by vaal orbing a 20 % molten shell. As explained above i got 2 of them out of 4 tries so its kinda random. Quality on the remaining gems is optional.

Q : WTF ? Blood magic?
A : I couldnt use clarity + be able to cast molten shell because this was meant to be a budget build. But if you can get mana on your gear im sure you can run clarity and maybe even one additional aura :)

instead of a 20% quality vaal molten shell, could you use a 0% quality gem and change iron will to chance to ignite?
Very nice build!
