Hey, thanks for the great guide.
I'm currently planning on following this for my next character, and I'm wondering if voidheart is still a better choice than the poison support gem now, given that it's been nerfed down to approx. 30% poison chance.
What are your thoughts?

I've actually recreated the build for 2.4 and made a post on Reddit about it. See here!

Thanks for linking that, I doubt I would have found it otherwise!

I'm lucky that you didn't change up the tree too much there, as I've already reached level 50 or so following the previous one.
I doubt that it's the most efficient method, but I switched to a 4L setup while levelling for the totems (War-chief - Void Manip - Poison - Added Chaos) and am using an Edge of Madness until I reach level 72 for my chaos claw. So far, it's a lot of fun, but not the quickest to level.

Nicely written guide.

You messed up on gem links! Enlighten on lighting golem? :D

No Faster Attack on main link? hmm..

Also "Passive Skill Tree and Leveling" is not there atm.

What do you think about recent nerf to Taunt? I know it only affects Shaper and Guardians but still, is it better to take First to Strike, Last to Fall & Inspirational now?

How many Essences of Delirium do you think it would take to get a good Malicious roll + the Delirium? Probably not worth trying, I guess? What's your per-hit damage on your totems?

Too many. Malicious + high attack speed + Decay is pretty much a no-go unless you have infinite exalts to spend on essences. Not to mention I don't think Decay would make that much of a difference since it doesn't stack like poison does.

I don't know. I'll have to get back to you on that one. I think the chaos damage is like 6K per hit, not counting resistances and debuffs like Wither.
