Enki's Arc Witch - maybe back some day?

Hello everyone!
I'm sure that this question was already asked, but could you please ask it once more (I can't search on all the pages)
Should I select an option to Trigger a socketed spell once in 8 seconds or 4 seconds is much more valuable?

Depends on your budget... you can craft the 8 second one on any weapon with an open suffix. The 4 second Version has to be unveiled if i am correct.

I avoid no regen/slow regen maps at all... and if i roll +damage and/or +crit modifiers for monsters on the rest, i avoid doing high level ultimatums. Especially if the circle is cramped up so you can't move around freely.

Else, try to kite them around the edge of the circle, DON't backtrack ever, i wait for arcane cloak cd, pop it and cast a couple arcs, after that i circle again.

edit: everything that you roll, that reduce your avoidance/tank, e.g. -block and -evade are a pain too. Especially when combined with +damage mods

I think I'm just going to reroll and start another character, if just doesn't feel great to play arc anymore.

ive been swapping out orb or storms for frost wall on Ultis for a long time now and yes i get the occasional fail but i win more than i lose and im doing T14 + maps

just dont stay still for too long and use that frost wall , it actually works quiet well

I made a bunch of changes since my last time posting here, however I am still feeling pretty squishy. Also struggling to make currency. Running t12 and 13 maps now and farming quarry league mechanic.

Any thoughts on my build?^

great guide. i have a question about flasks:

why isnt "enduring" listed as a possible prefix for a mana flask?

Can anyone survive T15 Ultimatums on this build?

All the mana stuff on foible also increases damage.

You're still using heartbreaker, I feel like it's a weapon to go through white maybe yellow maps. Look for a weapon with 100+ (ideally 150+) mana and good spell damage.
Try to get a CoD and crown of the inward eye.
Try to get the proper enchant on your boots. Mana regen will boost your damage and survivability aswell.
Get a lvl 21 arc.

That should give you stuff to work for

On a sidenote, fix your flasks.

Thank you! I'll work on those.

Do you know if this build, at an intermediate level between budget and endgame, is able to do ultimatums?

Having an issue at endgame content. Not sure why I feel my gear is pretty damn good considering. If someone can take a look and let me know what they think. Definitely need a new shield, but currently cant see that being that much of an issue. Aside from that I feel my stats are about as high as they can go considering the 4 uniques im wearing. Currently sitting at 3.7k life and 8.8k mana. Watching any of the enki video's I have no where near the regen he has unless I have my cloak up. I can't level up high enough to get the extra clusters, or am I progressing my clusters improperly for endgame? Should I be going after the curse cluster before I use the small clusters for mindfulness?

Seems comfortably, I can only complete t14 maps. Ultimatums are hit or miss. If there's a lot of ranged adds I die. If it's melee I can kite enough to kill them for the most part. If anyone can look at my setup and give suggestions that would be great.
