So in my version of the build before ascendancy I went Chaos Immune. I got up to 5.6kES. With trickster I am going with blashphemy warlords for 4l. CI this time as well since I get bonus ES which should give me more ES. I am not going to use heralds or wrath since that messes with EE.

> Get an appropriate shield and do not use a 2nd dagger
> Get trickster ascendancy class with "walk the aether" for free cylone

> Now either drop bloodmagic for lifeleech OR Bladevortex, if you want bladevortex then get blasphemy warlords mark to make up the leech.

> Get a vagan dagger (this is mabye the most important thing). Just get one, craft critchance on it and you are good to go

Hi all, very noobish coc discharge player here. I spent all of talisman league playing a melee cyclone to earn a 6 link voll's, a voll's devotion, high roll maligaro's etc., plus a nice stack of exalts to fund a coc build. I chose to go with the templar inquisitor as I had a lvl 80 templar sitting around. I have literally just begun to chrome and gem the gear and despite my gems being grossly under leveled I can see the great potential here. So far I have crafted 1 decent elreon's ring and am just waiting to get another good one. I have crafted a crappy vegan dagger and am using it until I get better. Hopefully someone can help me out with a couple questions I do have though. First, how is it possible to not use the elemental equilibrium with the templar build? Second I see it's recommended to use HoT/Wrath. Where would you put those in and what other gems would you remove to get them there?

you NEED someway of penetrating resistances. w/o EE, the only other passive way of doing that is blasphemy (35% mana reserved, not possible w/ purity of lightning and discipline) or just casting a curse. if you cast a curse, youll need to either go dual curse (assassin's mark+conductivity/elemental weakness) or pick between the three. if you go Elemental equilibrium you cant go Herald or wrath because both of those add lightning damage to your attacks, which would increase enemy lightning res by 50%. you could go herald of ice tho, and that would save you from needing it on gear.

Thanks for the reply, I was a little confused because Mathil said you could ditch ee and use warth/HoT with the inquisitor and the skill tree he posted doesn't use it. I'll see if I can catch him streaming and ask him directly what he meant.

I also have a leveled witch that I may spec out and try as well. It would literally be the same gear I use for the templar so I could test both out to see what is most effective.
