Enki's Arc Witch - maybe back some day?

So many changes... will the patch make the old build weak? Or will it still be good but not as good as the new build?
Enk whats the opinion for arcane cloak in replace of steel skin and to replace a gem in a our arc setup to energy leech to not rip ourselves when it pops.

forgive me if this has been answer.
The Day That I Die Is The Day I Can finally Sleep Peacefully.
No offense intended but this new version has some serious survivability issues.
@darkson1
Clear feels pretty good, was running lots of T16s and ~300ish delves to test and optimize the new version.

Basically, I only went with HoI last patch just in case the chain range buff wouldn't be enough, but with good cast speed and hit damage it's enough to clear well so those two are what i've improved this time.

@wrayk
The 3.9 setup is significantly weaker but still playable.

@Shadowsway
To my understanding, Arcane Cloak only works when spending mana, spending ES with EB will not work.

@PrincessRevolver
Can you elaborate why you think so?

The elemental resistances seem wanting. To your credit I'm probably missing something. Do you mind breaking down the survivability portions of the build to better identify all its components?

I guess you mean based on the PoB? That's with only Lightning + Chaos Res crafted as placeholder on the example gear, it's actually pretty easy to cap resistances with this setup.

The basic defenses are Mind over Matter with buffed Stone Golem and leech for sustain, Flesh and Stone + optional cheap anointment to take reduced damage from blinded enemies, Chaos Golem and optionally Meat Shield, Flasks and CwDt + Steelskin. Admittedly not enough to make it a super tanky build, but enough to get by.

We can also stack quite some Dodge with gear, Vaal Grace and the new Cluster Jewels, which also give us access to Sap to exchange some damage for reducing enemy damage by up to 20%.

Yeah I don't see any deviations from what I'm doing and yet I'm still getting oneshot on yellow maps by pretty much everything. Eldritch Battery is a no-go for me.

Could you set your character tab to public please? Would like to check what could cause this problem.

Hey Enki,

great guide as always - wanted to ask what about "Archmage Support" for Single Target, is it viable or too much Manacost to use?

If that was already answered sorry!

What are your thoughts on new Archmage support gem?

Will take too much investment for spammable skills to be worth the opportunity cost.
