NO LONGER MAINTAINED

Yeah, but odds are in your favor of getting more fire or cold than lightning, since it's 2/3 vs 1/3.

According to Path of Building, lightning deals the least DPS, too. Cold deals roughly 8% more, and fire deals 32% more.
Just wanted to say started this build last night and switched to skelly mage around 25 when I got a Reckoning jewel and a reverb wand. Throw in skelly peirce and lmp and nothing has slowed me down so far. I even finished kativa with a helm u picked up right out of the gate. Absolutely crushing it so far, can't wait to upgrade and see how I do in maps.

Well you would have to play without Anger in this case though, Anger will mess up EE in conjunction with arc as it adds flat fire damage. Just consider that.

edit: You could of course use another aura such as haste. When I calculate this in PoB I get more dmg with haste on the minions even without EE. I guess that could work out quite well, have to test this later.

if your running a minion build anger will be linked to generosity and wont affect ee at all. overall ee with anger on generosity will be a dps gain.
Fun fact: i noticed i was lacking damage in boss fights and went after the problem.
It ended up being the gem level, which i didn't care too much about cause its level 18.
Turns out, according to the official GGG minion spreadsheet, my lvl 18 gem makes my skellies have a final dps of 26.9 while a lvl 21 gem has 60.3!!! more than 2x.

gonna upgrade my gem asap, before even getting a 6l

He isnt wrong though i decided to drop generosity in favour of having a bigger EHP/mana pool using essence worm, so EE is messed up. i'll try haste + EE sticking to essence worm.

Haste + EE + Essence Worm seems really good. The added cast speed from haste on your own is nice for applying curses also.
Currently running dual curse with enfeeble to add another security layer as i went full out on dmg :D
just came to say great build playing on HSC lvl 66 finish act 9 with 4l sire of shards no problem on dps part not as fast as u but cant expect better until i dont find the currency to get at least a 5L PLEDGE what skills do u recomend on a 5L pledge
