Just head's up, you cannot use Fortify with Flame Dash. Or am I misunderstanding something?

Still need a bit of upgrades. Mapping feels really good. Single target feels really meh. Only level 86, but the build feels nice. Thanks!

Also, I hate shield charge, what are people using instead?

Hey Fellas,

first of all thank you for checking into my profile and correcting some mistakes. I kinda feel stupid havin arcane cloak instead of arcane surge socketed...
I also went shopping, chaos resistance is around 30% now. I dropped my Omeyocan boots to some rare (4 EX) and bought new gloves to cap the rest of all the resistances. I canceled one LCJ and got rid of Healthy mind. Althoug i was afraid of my mana falling below the 6k level it maintains on 6,6k. Healt and Energy have gone up to 3,4 and 3,3k.
Gotta work on my gems left though... and a watcher's eye (the mode energy shield is bit expensive).

My damage dropped from ~100k to 85k town damage (without any buffs). I am in a testing mode atm.

Thank you so far all the recommendations. If there any improvements left oin my gear please let a noob know ;)

BR
Kraut

I'm thinking about what skills to pick on the fourth MCJ. I think Grand Design is a given, but Brand Loyalty not that much.

I remember that someone here mentioned using Seeker Runes. Does the increased attachement range still apply after recalling the brands? If not, this skill does not seem that useful, since I am spamming Brand Recall every 1.5 seconds.

The other viable option would be Holy Conquest, which adds activation frequency, damage and movement speed.

Would not choose Seeker Runes as we already have a high range, esp. with recall. Haven't tested it, but recalling makes then unattached and generally instantly attached as you recall near enemies. So it would be pretty much useless with us spamming recall.

According to PoB, Holy Conquest gives me relatively 2.6 % less dps than Brand Loyalty. It does though give MS and more leech/s as you hit faster, whereas Brand Loyalty gives 20 % range. Basically your choice which to go.

Even when recalling, if I run with 7+ Brands, probably not all of them will be attached. But I have never really paid attention to that.

I read a thread on reddit about Seeker Runes. It seems to ignore Brand Recall completely, meaning it does not refresh after getting recalled, but also ignores the added lifetime of the brand. It only cares about the base/tooltip lifetime. I'm on 18 seconds, so this would stack up quite a bit.

I guess we need the field test to be sure. Would love to hear your feedback on it.
