How this works?
Took alot of Crit Damage nodes as offence with Chaos Inoculation and Energy Shield nodes as defence.
If you have enough Elemental Damage you will freeze, shock and burn mobs on every crit! ( especially shock is important )
You're immune to chaos damage so you can have Blood Rage on 24/7 - You'll need frenzy charges for flicker strike. ("Flicker strike: Now has a cooldown which can be bypassed by spending a Frenzy Charge.")
Spam Lightning Strike for AoE and Flicker Strike for SINGLE targets. Always pop Diamond Flasks when fighting stronger mobs, ALWAYS open up with Elemental Weakness, even against single enemies!

Fire Damage
If you land a critical strike with an attack or spell that deals fire damage, the enemy begins Burning. Burning causes damage over time. Humanoids, Monkeys and Sea Witches will flee while burning.
Basic burning effects last 4 seconds, and the amount of damage over time is 1/3 of the initial fire damage dealt, per second. So a total of 4/3 of the original damage, over 4 seconds. Total burning damage can be increased with skill gem bonuses, passive skills, and item mods that increase burning damage. In addition, the Vulnerability curse can increase burning damage, and the Temporal Chains curse can increase the duration of the burning effect without reducing the damage done per second.
-
Cold damage
Hitting an enemy with cold damage can cause the enemy to be Chilled. Critical hits with cold damage can also cause the target to be Frozen. Chilled enemies move, attack, and cast 30% slower, while frozen enemies cannot do anything except drink flasks.
-
Lightning damage
If you land a critical strike with an attack or spell that deals lightning damage, the enemy becomes Shocked. This can be stacked up to three times on one target. In this state, monsters or players take 40% more damage per instance of Shock from all sources. Under the effects of 3 stacks of shocked, an enemy would take 220% of the damage that would normally be done without any shocked stacking, no matter the type or source of the damage.
