For anyone wondering about the crafting process:

I spent about 4-5k alts looking for CWC and one of the following (all t1 obviously)

power charge hybrid mod
flat fire to spells
increased fire
increased spell
increased spellcrit
supported by arcane surge
+2 or +3 fire gems
socketed spells deal 20% more damage

when i hit something good i always regaled, it doesnt matter if the second mod on the blue item is shit, ALWAYS TRY.

I did buy the chimeral for the modsplit, but I never hit a good blue.
I ended up with CWC lvl 20 and T1 Spellcrit (after annulling of a shitty mod).
So for now, I only have 2 + 3 crafted mods, but I will probably slam it with one of those new exalted orbs at some point, right now I dont have the money for that.
I'm not trying to scare you away with the 4-5k alts, because you consistently hit CWC. I would say probably every 2-3 hundred, its not that bad. I was probably just unlucky with hitting another good mod, since there are 6 of them. Neverless, crafting is always fun and if you have the budget, you should go for it.

Lets see what this thing can do bois.

Gryph - your build guide has allowed me to progress for the first time in the 3 leagues that I have played! Also, the new atlas has helped as well,

I looked at your latest POB and made changes to my build and it feels smoother than the 3.8 POB I was using until yesterday.

I have a few question below. I'm not sure how to link my character, but maybe you could find it.

1. I'm running into mana issues now while running aspect of the spider, discipline and herald of ash. Even if I take off asepct of the spider, I still go OOM during boss encounters fairly easily. Anything I can improve on here?

2. I ran into my first 4 watchstone boss. He wrecked me - I just don't think I have the defenses or the damage to beat these guys now. Same as above; anything I can improve on here?

Hey,

thanks a lot for the info! So yeah I still have some questions, I just switched from spectre necro and am still brand new to the build. I bought a starter set of gear but I'm dealing absolutely no damage somehow, especially against map bosses and metamorphs. I have like no single target dmg when there are no adds around. Also it seems like I barely have all offerings up and my ball lightning also isnt proccing as often as it looks like in your videos. What am I doing wrong? Do I have wrong gem linkings? Am I using wrong skills?
Also, which auras do I have to use? I only can use 2 auras, how do you manage to have anger, herald of ash, and discipline up at the same time?
I feel like I'm missing a core aspect of the build which would enable me to kill things much faster. I was doing T15-16s before and now I cant even kill a T5 metamorph anymore because of no dmg.

Would be really glad and thankful if you could help me out a little, here is my current gear:

I know it's not optimal yet but this stuff is worth like 6 Ex and that should allow me to at least do red maps shouldnt it?... Hope you can help me out, thanks a lot in advance!

Well, it is mentioned above me but, here goes:

Your CWDT setups are a mess. You need a low level desecrate to proc off of CWDT (currently lvl 1 CWDT and a level 20 desecrate...this is a no-go)

There are similar CWDT issues elsewhere. Start by fixing these. Remember, you can only proc spells on CWDT that have the same or lower required level.

And I have made this update but only this morning so w/e. Drop Leash of Oblation until you have a chest with increased effect of offerings. Without that mod undoing the downside of the belt it's just too much of a hassle to maintain for most people. A rare with life+ES+Resists is perfectly fine.

Also, I cannot stress this enough, you need to get a second source of ES recovery.

Boots+Aspect of the Spider is the cheapest way to get excellent ES on hit recovery. A Discipline ES on hit Watcher's Eye is ideal though if you can afford to drop 10ex on one.

Very cool! Hunter Exalt for Unnerve on hit would be pretty sweet. Redeemer can get Block or Spell block (up to 15% spell block would be wonderful)

There's some other cool ones. Do your research :D

Also:
