[3.4] Teleports Behind You - Poet's Pen Lightning Warp & Arc, MF / Facetank t16 / Shaper / U. Elder

Hey, I will work on getting Uber atziri up. I am on a trip until next tuesday and don't have a mouse, but will see what I can do.

I have to say i am really loving this build so far! However, I feel like my single target damage is still lacking. Can you take a quick glance at my tree and items to see what can be improved or changed?

Most of your DPS gems are around level 18. Do not underestimate how big of a jump even going from 20 to 21 is for skill gems. Getting some 21/20 DPS gems could easily net you 10-15% more damage.

Clear speed is great but I feel kinda squishy and can't really facetank stuff.
It's mostly the red beasts, 3-4 essence mobs, certain map bosses.
Is there anything i can do to improve survivabilty?
Should i consider adding a blind support gem to barrage? (using a 5L Impulsa)

I am currently clearing T9-10 quite comfortably (lv79) but i tend to switch to my MS jugg to clear the tough mobs to avoid possible deaths.

Yup, also consider that you have a few more jewel sockets to obtain, which should produce a noticeable difference.

4 things:
- mana is a bit low. You want your unreserved mana to equal 43% of your life pool. You can make significant eHP gains by simply grabbing a few %mana nodes, and a few pieces of gear with +mana. Deep Thoughts or Soul Siphon are good options on tree.
- I like using a Surgeon's stibnite flask. It is always available during bossfights due to the high hit rate of ball lightning. I supplement the stibnite with %blind on hit with abyss jewels as well, for me it is not super high priority in the Barrage setup.
- Commandment of reflection on gloves is pretty huge. It draws so much aggro and creates dps windows for you during single target fights. If you can't quite farm uber lab for it, you can also spam cruel lab for the lower level reflection enchant, it should help a little bit at least.
- Try to get a flame dash - faster casting setup in there. At the top end this build is pretty good for facetanking due to instant leech, but since your life pool is still a tad low you probably need to do some dodging with movement/flame dash still.

Thanks!

Hey just started your build im lvl 72 right now, done some t14—t15 with a friend, all deathless and i was able to clean everything in a sec but rares and boss are a bit slower to kill.
I know i need more lvls to get jewells and spells to 21/20 but i wanted to thank you for sharing such a nice build !

Updated guide with Mechanics section , started an FAQ section explaining ascendancy choice.
Will continue to work on the Leveling section later.

Which upgrade should I get first?
1. 5-link Impulsa(Currently I only have 4L)
2. Choir of Storms
3. Berek's Grip

Im on a tight budget and with very casual grinding.

Berek's Grip. Meanwhile you can substitute Choir of the Storms with another dps amulet (anything with life and crit multi). 5L inpulsa should be last priority on that list.
