Been lurking around in your guide and was wondering if there's any room for the lightning dash in this build (Charged Dash) or is it not suited for the this kind of playstyle?

P.s Good job on the guide and i'm looking forward to try it out in 3.0

Hi, not sure how to implement it, we have 3 slots for Lightning Warp and the support gems. If you drop a golem maybe you could make a 4L out of it, but I am also excited to see the new skill :)

Been playing this build in Beta, like it so far but here is my problem:

-The amulet is unobtainable so far in Beta so alot of damage is lost.
-Currency is hard to obtain so belly is hard to get unless you can make currency really fast. (50+ Chaos) same with Vinktar's
-Damage seems low once you get to 65+ i have all the nodes apart from the life

my pledge is 4L atm, same with my chest, though i doubt 6 links on both is going to make considerable difference or will it?

i don't really know how else this build can be made stronger i am struggling on t2 maps at the moment so whether this build for now can push further i doubt it, unless someone find more damage. Maybe i am noob i don't know, not that skilled in the game only been playing for 2 months or so.

Great job on the build though its a fun build overall.

Hi, would you mind posting your gear/links as well as your tree?

In beta right now I am about 72 with a 5L Pledge. Damage is very good except versus bosses at the moment (though this related to GGG buffing monster HP for everyone, not the build itself).

Clearspeed is superb, I also don't have Vinktar's / Choir / Belly in Beta and am able to clear T4 maps easily (I haven't pushed the atlas beta due to time constraints), but I am sure the build will do fine.

My weapon and chest are both 5L, which isn't terribly difficult to obtain, aside from the pledge I spent maybe 10c on gear total, and those are just rares with life and resists. If you look at the video I made on Shaped Strand, I run without Vinktar's and Choir as proof of concept.

Don't sweat it, we all start somewhere, if you need help feel free to ask :) I'll try and make a video before the end of Beta to showcase links and clearspeed, etc.

Thank you OP for making this build, it has revitalized my interest in PoE. I have all of the gear except the two stone ring and choir of the storm. Currently trying to score the amulet at a good price but haven't been lucky enough yet. If you know of a cheap one let me know!

Thank you again for making this build I have been having a blast!

Glad to hear it :)

The ring is relatively cheap and a great boost to the build, get it soon if you can :)

In standard breach gear is pretty expensive, but I am sure after legacy ends there will be an influx of gear for sale :)

Let me know how the build goes!

I bought the brotherhood ring this morning. I have a 5L belly (6 sockets) but I cannot get more then 1-2 blue sockets. If you have a way of getting the belly with more blue let me know. I heard of one of the craft NPCs where you can select 3 of one color but the rest are random. My pledge is also 5 link (6 sockets), all 6 sockets are blue but 5 linked is the best I could manage so far.

Added video for coloring belly of the beast, cost me 1200 jewellers and 120 chromes.

- Added T4 Villa video in Beta - *Please not I'm tired and not playing very well, just showing how beginning maps look like. Build does fine even though I'm sleepy :)
- Added Bandits note - we take 2 skill points. Endgame Alira just isn't worth it.
- Changed Uber Lab Ascendancy. We take Pendulum of Destruction instead of Beacon of Ruin for more upfront damage and AOE
- Added current level 75 tree in Beta. Keep in mind, I had gotten Alira in Act 2 for testing, so I am missing two points here as well as GGG not giving us a few quests. Again, for the final form we kill all bandits for 2 skill points.

To all who read: I am going on vacation tonight and won't be back for 2 weeks.

The first person to send me a message gets all my Beta gear :) I'll announce the winner today.

can you explain the leveling guide please? what points in skilltree i need put first?
when level i can put Mind Over Matter?

Once you get MoM with some mana on gear it's amazing. I'd rush that pretty quickly. It's a great defensive mechanic on top of life nodes. :)

when i put MOM i die much more eaasy. because i cant regen mana for hit enemies. and my attack are canceled. can you help me about leveling? my storm call cant hit more than 5% bosss life with one combo. and i'm using tabula rasa .
