Here's some more information about the build so far:

1 - I don't know if the shaper can be done deathless consistently right now. In my run yesterday, I died 4 times; twice in the second phase and twice to the uncreated. Surprisingly enough I didn't die in the third phase. The shaper phases isn't a problem if ur an expert in running it. It's the uncreated that will kill u instantly if u get unlucky with ur evade/block or if u have slow reactions. I will have to do more shaper runs to see if I can run it deathless consistently but as of now I wouldn't take this build into a hardcore run.

2 - This build has problems with hydra and chimera because they are immune to poison. Hydra can be done deathless but u'd have to dodge all his attacks, which isn't that hard, but it takes a while to kill her. Chimera is a bit sketchy because he enters a cloud phase where he gets free hits on u and u'd have to search the clouds to find him. There's nothing to life leech off of in this phase. He also hits pretty hard and fast so ur very likely to die here.

3 - Reflect maps are very sketchy. I ran a t14 mineral pool map with 18% reflect yesterday and I died instantly when I didn't have my granite/basalt flask charges up. I'd say avoid them but they can be done if ur really good at managing flasks. Also lightning thorns is a no no for this build.

4 - I haven't done uber atziri yet with my new setup but I think it can be done easily deathless. I've cleared it before with my old setup but not deathless though. I will do some runs once I have enough currency to buy a couple of mortal sets.

5 - I personally find map clear speed to be slower with this setup. It's not terribly slow but compared to running herald of ash it's definitely slower because u don't get the overkill aoe damage. I think if ur only planning to do maps and not shaper/uber atziri, herald of ash is great. Drop MoM if ur running it. I might also try a different glove enchantment because like poison, cmomandment of the tempest takes some time to charge up.

6 - The physical mitigation will help especially if running purity of fire. I'm not sure if the damage will be enough because u'll have to run poison skill gem. If u don't kill the minions fast enough u will die during his blue ball phase because zana won't be able to put the red bubble up in time.

The setup I'm running is very expensive. I'd say I spent around 20ex so far on the build but that's because I had to change some stuff around and chrome my cospris multiple times. My gear probably costs around 12ex on ESC.

5 - It was expected the reduction of clear speed because of the change in the tree, greatly reducing the basic AoE (I think it is worth you go back to using Divinarius). About overkill Herald of Ash it work only with attacks. The ignite damage that you saw was because of critical damage, not because of the overkill effect.

If you kill an enemy with an attack, other enemies near them will be ignited for the overkill damage.

I tested witchfire brew and I can safely say it's a must have flask.

I didn't know that herald of ash overkill dmg only applies to attacks thx for telling me. Too lazy to read the wiki. The problem with the clear speed isn't that my bv aoe can't reach them. I kill pretty much everything instantly, even t16 mobs. It's the rare monsters that take ~2-3 seconds to kill whereas with herald of ash they just took 1 sec to kill. It's not that big of a deal but it's noticeable. I also need to stop casting wither + spell totem to clear regular mobs cuz that decreases my speed by alot; I think that's the biggest problem right now.

I don't like divinarius because the attack speed is really slow. It does increase my bv aoe so that I don't have to go out of my way to kill stragglers but my whirling blades attack speed is much slower, which means jumping between mobs and navigating through an area is slower. I don't think it will help my total clear speed that much because it'll take me longer to whirling blades through a map. The extra attack speed also helps a lot in dodging heavy boss hits. I'm thinking of replacing my of tempest glove enchantment to of flames/of fury/of blades, which will probably solve the issue of stragglers. My AoE isn't bad atm.

I'm considering running witchfire brew with this build, I think it would significantly increase dmg and survivability and make possibly make non cospri versions end game viable.
