Is there any proof that your concept of a Molten Strike build is Shaper viable? Or even Red Elder Viable? The damage in POB is horrendous and you're using Melee Physical Support and Ruthless for Molten Strike. Also, why Lion's Roar?
Why would you put "Shaper Viable [Video]" in the title without providing even concept proof or an actual video of a Shaper attempt?
I don't record shaper fight, because struggle with fps (you can check it on videos). When molten balls, shaper beam and vortex ground is on, my pc with open OBS is dying and fight was really laggy. I maybe try to record it later.
But also, you can check how easy and fast character kill chimera and other bosses on videos. Molten strike is OP.
Sorry for misunderstood. Video on Title means not only shaper. I actualise this.
That's my main setup for farming. You can use conc effect and phys proj for better molten damage, but I don't know which setup is better. You can use fire pen also, for swap it on ancestrall call. I added this to PoB link and will testing more too. Maybe that better option.
Lion's roar grant's great survaivability with knockback and roar, and yes, that add damage too)
Melee Physical Damage and Lion's Roar add literally nothing (0) to the dmg of the projectiles.
I run a successfull Dual Grelwood Shank Molten Strike Juggeraut on Bestiary atm and I was interested of the Dual Nebuloch idea, since it's very promising: All the adds per Endurance Charge. But I switched and tried a bit around yesterday and ist so damn slow..due to the nature of slow Nebulochs.
I looked up your tree in PoB again and it has an attack rate of 3.something, while I have with Dual Grelwoods an attack rate of 9.something in PoB with my build. Sure, this is a completely different build with different main weapon Setup. But the question is, why should I play a build that is slower which only can use clunky Leap Slam? Yeah ofc, it's not always about effectiveness...but in the the builds are the same. Jump/whirl into or in front of a mob, release a flood of molten balls, and move on while everything dies. Dual Grelwood Shanks offer such a nice clear and traveling Speed and the only reason to use Nebuloch is maybe the insane regen, but that's also to Counter the insane Degen. and you can't use Anger, since you (have to?) use Arctic Armor and Purity of Fire.
I will try around about your build later a bit more, when I'm deeper into red maps with more currency but I guess I'll stick to the dual Grelwood Shanks.
As I'm said Roar boost initial hit damage, but main reason in sefety knockdown and roar to big massive pack of mobs.
With nebuloch I have over 33k armor and 40-50% chaos resist. With purity of fire and other buffs you can scare almost nothing. I'm facetank minotaur in 4 circles and take no damage and killing snakes from chimera so easy. All greelwood builds I seen before had slower aps than my nebuloch setup. Dk, but clear is pretty good :) Yes, you can't use whirling blades and that sad

To be honest, I don't know how it's possible to have less aps with Grelwoods than with Nebuloch. According to PoB I have an almost doubled attack rate.
But the tankiness of Nebuloch is really interesting, I have to further look into that and try around! :)
I hope GGG really buffs Leap Slam since it's technically very slow and unaccurate compared to Whirling Blades.
Edit: Btw, isn't that contrary to use Melee Physical Damage only for the initial melee part of the attack, when you push the mobs away with the knockback of Lion's Roar? As I said, all "melee" tagged/based supports and nodes doesn't work (dmg wise) with the projectile part of Molten Strike.

That was nice cheap option for 4c and craftable elemental damage. That's it :)
Yes, you can swap to good rare or kaom's if you can leap all the time

Devoto is ok, but I prefer more accuracy, life and elemental damage
