Hi

i played similar build in last league and its awsome.

I would make litle change:
With soul riper u cant get mana so it work perfect with divination destilate. Since You are pathfinder its provide alot of iiq (26%) and iir. i would replace it with vinktar. Imo for leech boot cruel lab leech enchament is enough. Use soul rpier, cast spark and use divination.

Herald of ice with coh assasin mark will generate Power charges.
The green nightmare jewel will let You generate frenzy charges

also found that this build work well in delve just need some gear replacment.
Change armor for inpulsa and one ring for call of the brotherhood.


Nice remark ! I'll try that for sure when I get the Leech Enchant on my boots !
And yeah I used Herald + CoH Assassin Mark but Green Nightmare is too expansive for what it provides. I prefer a cheap Intuitive Leap and the Overcharged node to generate the 3 types of charges and link my Herald with better support gems for QoL.

Nice guide. I heard that some vaal skills are back with the incursion flask but having a place to look up information about the entire interaction is welcome.

My question is, can this build do t16 maps? I dont care about elder/shaper or guardians but can it handle normal map bosses?

Yes ! It can definitely do T16 maps (Elder UGS, Crater, Belfry etc...)
I will post videos on those maps later on.

However, you won't be able to wear as much MF gear because of the increase life/damage of mobs. And you'll have to make some ajustements and get more life and damage on some gear items ! :)



I think he meant Soul Catcher? With Divination Distillation and Soul Catcher you can easily get 80+ resistance all the time making resists on gear easier, but it depends on the persons play style. You can also use the new Cinderswallow for easy life sustain.

Heya, thx for this build, I'm building up for it now.
I'm using the staff as that way I only need to do the expensive craft once, and can get some "crit while wielding a staff" nodes from the tree. The free 6L is also nice : )

MY question atm was: why do you seem to prefer 20 reduced spark duration gems instead of the 15%? is there a benefit to actually having shorter vaal spark? Maybe so you can cast it faster in succession?



The reduced spark duration also affects the time when you CAN'T gain vaal souls.
So by stacking a lot of reduced duration + soul catcher, you're able to lower the Soul Gain Time Prevention to 0 and you're able to constantly gain souls for your Vaal Spark ! ;)

I haven't tested with Divination Distillate yet. But I doubt it would work because you'd have to be constantly spending mana for the flask to be active all the time.

And yeah Cinderswallow Urn might be good option to regen life, but I don't think it's better than Vinktar in any ways tho. ;)

I'll test soon with the divination distilate. I'd think since you have the "can't gain mana" from the flask active at the same time keeping it active should not be a problem, but first need to get a better feel for the build, gets rather hectic :D

What I wanted to ask: if you check the POB, one of the haardous research jewels does not have 40 int in range (pob shows the radius a bit tricky), I guess you'll have to grab a lost +10int node to make it work.

You don't have to have 40 int allocated in the radius.
You just need to have 40 int in the radius, allocated or not!

Is Qotf WORB faster than this QOTF Vaal Sparker?

How does this compare to Poets pen?

Looks very fun and I miss the old dried lake days D:

I don't know about Winter Orb, I haven't tried it yet. But I'd say Vaal Spark is a bit faster because you play as a Pathfinder instead of an elementalist, thus you get more reliable flask charges !

And compared to poet's pen, if you talk about Lightning Warp/Arc poet's pen, i've played this build last league and I totally prefer vaal spark. But that's more of a personal choice I'd say ! ^^

Hi, I am currently level 67 (rain of arrows) and I could get 10 ore more levels at blood aqueduct. Am I supposed to do merciless and uber lab with this gear now? Thanks

Hello! Well, it doesn't really matter when you do lab ^^'
If you feel you can do it with this gear, go for it. Otherwise level up, I guess haha

I did a try last night with the boots + leech + divination, sometimes I get hit once or twice, and I can't leech enough. Mode panic activated and boom dead. It happened a lot (doing a lot of Lava Lake 5 sextant + Breach or Harbringer). I know the build full MF is squishy, but with Vinktar I almost never die, except if there is too much happening on the screen. Imo you need an Aurabot with you if you want to play with Divination (88%IIQ with Divination//62% IIQ with Vinktar)

This build is awesome, much better than a poet pen arc/LW. No exalted since the start of this league. 2 exalted drop the second day with this build. I still need to level up a little for the watcher eye + doing the last lab.

For the new people trying this build, just a small advice, you need absolutely the 40% vaal skill for Soul Catcher, both 20% on the weapons and the 20% reduced spark duration from both jewel. It can work with lower value, but it wont be smooth at all.

Thanks for the build !
