[3.0] Voltaxic Blade Vortex (Theorycraft) -RIP-

This concept seems really cool. Out of curiosity why not pick witch or shadow as the class though?

I really liked your build concept of Phys to Light with voltaxic and BV, so I took it and spun it off into theorycrafting.

The build I landed on was (this is gonna be a bit long) Voltaxic BV wither CwC using CI occultist and soul strike. Here's a pastebin:

https://pastebin.com/1VyjhY0q

All this gear is probably worth 1-2ex, 3ex tops. Some stats:

- 7.5k es (9.5k with a rare 700es chest)
- 1.8mil DPS with 20 wither stacks, 1.5mil DPS with 10 wither stacks, 1mil DPS with 10 wither stacks and a 5L
- 1.11s ES restart time, 0.8s with legacy soul strike
- Dual curse, with easy 3rd curse
- 4L Lightning Warp with Arcane Surge
- 74% crit chance
- 404% crit multiplier
- 78% chaos damage
- Effective 81/81/88 resists with incandescent heart

The only two issues I see with this build are

1. Clearspeed. CwC BV only casts 2.86 times a second. This means it would take 7s to ramp up 20 blades.Furthermore, there is no shield charge or WB, relying on LW. Although LW is near-instant, its not quite as smooth as SC or WB.

Hoping Profane Bloom will do some work here.

2. The real issue: Stun. With my resists at the moment, I can't fit in a valyrium, and chayula removes the dps/es/res of having a neck. I guess with a bit of resist juggling you could fit in a valyrium, but that seems suboptimal.

Overall, I'll be speccing this char and seeing how it goes. DPS is good, survivability is good with OCC ascendancy and low es restart time, high ES, and good mobility.

Let me know what you guys think.

I am not quite sure what you mean. Occultist with ES doesn't rely on VP at all, and is extremely good. Only a 1 sec delay, and boom almost 4k es regen.

Occultist has -20% chaos res to enemies, profane bloom, an extra curse, and a shitload of es. 9 - 9.5k es is no joke, with 4k es regen.

As for Wither CwC, there seems to be too little benefit for too little gain in converting to chaos without using wither. Sure, you could stick wither on a spell totem, but that requires running a warlords for mana leech, which is suboptimal. (compared to assmark, enfeeble, or tempchains).

Another reason to go es is purely because of soul strike. What other quiver would you use besides it? Your tree is a level 100 tree. There are little to no life nodes on the right side of the tree in the shadow region. Even then, how are u going to sustain? How will you get leech? Just through vinktars?

I sincerely think Occultist with Wicked Ward is the best option.

P.S. The build already has 70% chaos damage with atziris up.
