**Important to Read**

1)Spell Echo does not belong in the setup it is there to simulate the approximate DPS in PoB. Replace Spell Echo with Unleash support.

2)Jewel Socket #2: "Militant Faith Timeless Jewel, Prismatic Jewel" - There is no such prismatic jewel, this is a placeholder for the Legion Timeless Jewel because PoB does not have the Legion Timeless Jewels.

3)Mind Over Matter: This Keystone is specced in the tree to account for speccing Inner Conviction (the keystone that replaces Mind Over Matter when the Militant Faith Timeless Jewel is placed into the adjacent jewel socket.

Pros
1)High damage
2)High movement speed
3)High Survivability
4)Great at bossing

Cons
1)Very Expensive
2)Little flexibility in terms of build

Your Survivability
Your main two aspects of survivability are the double Vitality Watcher's Eye and the Perfect Form Zodiac Leather.

The Double Vitality Watchers Eye (shown in Gear section) - Gives life leech to your Freezing Pulse - something that Warlord's mark used to accomplish on an elder ring however, Warlord's Mark no longer applies to spells. It also gives life recovery which acts as a multiplier for how fast you recover your life given that we are getting leech (Jewel itself) and regen (Vitality's life regeneration and regeneration from tree/gear) by running this jewel, this stat is very important.

The Perfect Form - This gives 30% spell dodge (from Phase Acrobatics), a mediocre evasion rating, free Arctic armor (Less physical damage taken, Less fire damage taken, and enemy action speed reduction) and life.

Other aspects include:

Shatter + Chill from Freezing Pulse

The Pandemonious Jade Amulet - Blind on hit to chilled enemies (guaranteed) and reduction of action speed

Aspect of the Spider: Reduces enemy movement speed.

Boots - Boots can roll additional spell dodge (important for higher tier maps).

Projectile Weakness - 25% chance to knockback enemies.

Your Damage
Void Batteries - 50% increased damage per power charge. We get 9 power charges in total, 290% increased spell damage taking into account the 80% reduced spell damage from each.

Inner Conviction (shown below) - 3% MORE spell damage. We get 9 power charges in total, 27% MORE spell damage.



Assassin Ascendancy - Caps our critical strike chance at 100% and gives insane critical strike multiplier.

Aspect of the Spider - 15% increased damage

Herald of Ice + Elemental Proliferation + Curse on Hit Projectile Weakness = Great damage, clear & and shatters

The Pandemonious Jade Amulet - 25% Cold Resistance Penetration & Increased Cold Damage

Elder Malachai's Artifice - 50% Cold Resistance Penetration

Mark of the Shaper - Flat lightning damage to spells, 80% increased spell damage, and constant cold DoT from Shaper volatiles
