Yeah. Oops, I should probably also include that in the guide. Thanks for reminder.

So I'm using scouge arrow on CI trickster, a bit different way than yours, though I'm using energy leech too. And it doesn't seem to heal me at all when it procs. Do procs from mirage archer not work at all, or something? Do you perhaps have any recording where I can actually see the leech going? I just died to delve when I shot an arrow on half ES, it hit nad killed mobs and all I got was the chunks of ES from %on kill, no actual leech going.

So I did some small changes again to make the build way more reliable.

1. Replaced debuff CWDT setup with:
Wave of Conviction (with Cold exposure, make sure your wave is dealing more Cold damage than other types, for me this was WoC lvl 12) + Curse on Hit + Projectile Weakness + Increased Duration

This setup allows us to keep our debuffs permanently up without relying on being hit, also it allows us to level them higher, so, more DPS!

2. Moved Blood Rage to self cast
This means that now I can also level it up to 20, what again means more DPS and it no longer requires unsocketing in certain maps, just dont cast it.

Benefits of these changes are also that now build requires less off-coloring.

Hello! About Wave of Conviction. It matters only that cold damage is higher than fire and lightning, amount of physical doesn't matter? Is it a self cast skill, i.e. Curse on hit can't proc it?

Is Projectile weakness in this setup applied to each enemy hit by one of the thorns? I don't seem to see an icon above the enemy indicating they got cursed.

Yeah, phys do not matters at all. With Wave you mostly want min cold to be above max lightning and max fire. I got that initially wrong so I had to go from lvl 12 Wave to lvl 10, but now it is reliable.

You are self-casting Wave when needed to apply Projectile Weakness with Curse on Hit (mostly just on bosses or w/e stronger monster you encounter on the way, e.g architects, beasts, betrayal), you are not applying it from scourge arrow (e.g the thorn arrow reference you did).
