You'll likely achieve a bit higher DPS with FA. Another advantage is that, if you ever intend to run Hall of the Grandmasters, the extra green socket makes it easy to swap out FA for Block Chance Reduction.

A slight downside of FA is that you'll run out of mana faster if for some reason you don't hit your target fairly quickly (bad aim or trying to preload damage on bosses).

All said, I prefer FA over added lightning.
Level 99, i'm currently finishing min/maxing this but atm everything is , well, easy.

I've 69k dps with GMP + auras + lightning golem in my ho, 118 k with slower projectiles.

I prefer added lightning over faster attacks because I think my attack speed is already good, without charges i've 4.88 aps , and with Shaper's gloves I've 95% chance to hit.

Once I manage to get a better belt and craft a better left ring I'd get another jewel socket, that would be around 4-5k more dps , not like I need them but I dont have anything more to do except getting level 100 and 40th challenges.

Best build I've ever played so far.

Also FA helps having EO up almost 100% (I have crit on boots too).

Why take the 2 nodes on Unnatural calm instead of the 2 nodes at witch start which would give you more ES and higher rate ?

We can't see your characters in your profile. You might just have a lot more intelligence than attack speed compared to most other people. It is also possible that your accuracy is low, and the accuracy from the dexterity nodes is worth more than intelligence.

I had the whole Unnatural Calm cluster before respeccing 4 points in order to get the jewel sock down there, and was just thinking where to place those 2 remaining points. Just put them into Thief's Craft , got another 1'5 k dps with it, 70'5 k dps atm in ho with gmp.
Eventually I'll respec Deep Wisdom to get the socket near CI node, but want to buy a nice jewel before to place it there.

Skill tree seems to look go so far, but i think you could respec that dex node right next to vaal pact. How do you like added lighting compared to faster attacks? Ive been using the latter, contemplating switching. Real nice chest btw!


To be honest, im contemplating. What are ur thoughts on FA vs added lightning? And thanks. The chest piece is my pride and joy


I just switched to added lightning the other night, dps went down ~1k, but damage range went up significantly. I can't really tell much of a difference losing the AS so I think I'll be sticking with it. Makes bosses and rare mobs go down much quicker.

you haven't done lab at all
you need to fix your tree and pick up the int nodes now and grab the jewel slots and equip the int converting jewels
get blood drinker
i think you must be missing some quest rewards you don't seem to have enough passives for that level
also get a 2nd claw

go get another claw and do normal and cruel lab really.
