Havent played in a few years, so some questions:
- Why not 2x weapon? Stats seem to outclass shield by a lot
- If we do use shield, would shield charge not be better than flame dash? Or is that no longer true?

Uber Atziri and Vaal Temple done with this build.
24 Challenges done.

One of the best builds to start new league.

Here's my gear:

Spoiler

I'm using 2 flasks to sustain longer fights because that shimmeron degen may hurt my mana.

Only problem I had was with Uber Elder, maybe because I've never did it earlier.

Now I'm thinking about new char with some fun build, like Poet's Pen.

What Pantheon are you using to mitigate the damage from dual shimmerons?

I don't care about pantheon tbh. I was using just flasks to refill mana.

Now I've dropped 1 shimmeron and bought this beauty for 2ex:

This + second Shimmeron and it melts whole maps and bosses.
I die alot anyway because that Syndicate stuff is just OP in T11+ maps but normal stuff like Shaper or guardians is just fun to do.

When do I use lightning spire and when do i use arc?

Sorry, I am a noob

Is there a reason to have arc and spire at the same time?

I was going to ask the same question. Anyone can clarify?

To all the newer players here: it is a lot of fun to watch some recent racing/speedrunning to see just how insanely good arc mines is for leveling. E.g., recent Dead and Doom speed run: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6svFVZ1lewc


@DawnBlue: 1. Get Lightning Spire Trap for single target (act 3, see guide)
2. get mana uniques like Praxis or Atziri's Foible, also using just one aura is completely fine if your mana is the issue. (spamming mana pots is completely fine though)
3. if you want you can prioritize pathing to volatile mines earlier (see act 4 in the guide) to make mines feel much smoother.
4. added lightning > added cold at this point in the game (see guide for 4L, 5L setups while leveling)
5. Why not explosive trap instead of flame totem, is that on purpose? explosive trap is great early single target.

That's a sick wand.

I don't get what the big deal about shimmeron is tho, I put it into pob and it gives me 2% more damage after I get power charge nodes. Definitely not worth the degen for 2% more damage imo.

stat sticks are updated. if you want to and your pob says higher stats; you can dual wield.

flame dash gives us arcane surge which gives inc spell dmg and cast speed. you can use shield charge but remember, shield charge can't go through obstacles when flame dash can.
