I kinda love the idea of taking forbidden power for increasing our aoe. The relatively small aoe of vortex is definitely slowly down clear speed and idk if profane bloom is helping.
I'm currently still cursing with orb of storms, so storm brand might help that issue a bit

I will try it out for science and let you know.

I was looking at the skill tree and if you take the 2 points in power charge near the Mystic Bulwark passive then you'll also get an additional 4% spell power per power charge. That will be 20% spell damage, 30% increased damage, 30% increased aoe, and 200% crit chance.

What is the benefit of having both Storm Brand and Orb of Storms in the wand trigger? Since the wand only procs one at at a time every 8 seconds wouldn't it be better to use just one or the other and then add in the hextouch so that we are always cursing when the wand goes off?


Otherwise Frostbite only casts like every 24 seconds.

Maybe I am not understanding the mechanics correctly but with Orb, frostbite, and brand it would look something like this:

Initial cast - Orb of Storms > 8s later Storm Brand > 8s later Frostbite > repeat every 8 seconds.

Also after it does Frostbite then we have a long period of no lightning damage so our EE will be buffing their cold resist since we do not have the constant lightning damage to counter our cold hits.

If we were to use Orb or Storm plus Hextouch and Frostbite wouldn't we get a curse every 8 seconds as well as a much more consistent EE/EO?

You don't need it. It's a very nice flask to have eventually, but you can easily go CI without it.

My understanding is that this is not how the trigger spells work in the wand.

The 8 seconds is across all 3 spells, not for each spell, if you are self casting spells near constantly. If you are casting spells constantly, all 3 spells in the wand should trigger every 8 seconds on average.

It is not a 24 second window.
