[Theorycraft] Trickster CI Scorching Ray

A pretty standard CI build by stacking cast speed, fire, burning and dot. The reason why we choose trickster over elementalist is because we can be offensive through a lot of cast speed and also defensive through dodge chance, flat ES and flat evasion. Would recommend +3 bow and soul strike since we can't leech through dot. This enable us to use mirror arrow for re-positioning since we can't afford to be surrounded.

This passive tree is a rough idea and it needs to be tweaked based on mana cost of the skill, personal preferences and it's actual mechanics.

I don't have much experience with making efficient CI trees, but I tried my hand at making your tree possibly a little more efficient, as I was thinking of doing the same build.

I tried to clean up pathing so that things would be easier at lower levels and spread the point to get a bit more life regen for ZO. I was also thinking about removing the path to ZO and instead using Sorrow of the Divine, because the flask is less than 1c for perfect rolls.

I'm not sure how important the increased ES recharge rate is, so that might need added back in. EE is in because Scorching Ray doesn't proc it (use arc spell totem or something to proc for more resist shred).

you may want to take EO too and trigger it together with EE using orb of storms
