[2.2] COC Barrage wand occultist



Hey guys this is my first build guide, so any feedback / criticism is much appreciated. Also I'm at level 88 with this character at the moment.

Overview
Spoiler
We're using high base crit wand with barrage to proc arctic breath and ice spear.
Why not using quill rain? You could, I just prefer / want to try with wand in this build, also quill rain has 5% crit chance while wand can go up to >9% base.
Why witch / occultist? Actually you could go Assassin / Deadeye / scion with this build and acquire better result than me, I just like the extra power charge and extra curse on occultist

For the remaining points I will probably grab more life in Hired Killer cluster and / or projectile damage near ranger start area. Grabbing remaining frenzy charges also good option to increase attack speed and damage.
