--It was an interesting process to try and scale firestorm, we ended up settling on going full crit, with added flat damage while damaging an ignited enemy and various other sources of flat damage pumped into firestorm since the base DPS is so bad.

--We're also using golem (yes even after nerf) for some decent damage boosts as the other choice in Elementalist ascendancy don't provide anything major.

--As for the POB itself, I've unticked the following boxes to show normal bossing DPS
-Is the enemy on consecrated ground
-Is the enemy covered in ash
-Have you blocked recently


--Ascendancy Order
Master of Discord>Liege Of the Primordial>Heart of Destruction>Bastion of Elementals.

--Bandits
Kill all.

--Our unique slots: ------
items above are 1000% required!!!

Hrimnor's is the only toss up slot, considering you can get "cannot be frozen" on boots but this is very expensive.. You'll need movement speed - high life - resistances in this slot.
--Rare gear

There's room for improvement on every piece of rare gear here try and get as high life as you possibly can on each piece, without sacrificing any of the other desired stats.
Our Amu should also always have the combination of Fire dmg Leeched as Life/+1 fire skill gems and life.


--Jewels

We want flat damage to spells as much as we can get and max life
The watcher's eye is about 1EX nothing serious there, if you can't afford just roll another flat damage+life jewel



--Cluster Jewel's

So the large cluster jewel must follow in a specific order to minimize total skill points used!!!
The notable's we want the most are Disorientating Display & Smoking Remains
But I will mention it's a pain in the ass to find them in the right order -- next bit is very important as you can waste currency!!!!!

The order for an 8 passive large cluster with three noteables is as follows
TOP NOTABLE = right position - We need either DDisplay here OR Smoking Remains
MIDDLE NOTABLE = left position - We need either DDisplay here OR Smoking Remains
BOTTOM NOTABLE = top position - this slot doesnt matter, but again we ideally want Disorientating Display & Smoking Remains but if there are none on the market, then roll with what you get, Disorientating Display is the most important of the three possible so this should be search for first.


--Small cluster:
Ideally you'd want max life added into the small passive, but chaos resistance is good too. Take what you can get there.

--Anima Stone:
For +1 golem so we can run chaos golem for phys reduction.




--Flasks

You ideally want Corrupted blood immunity on your mana flask
Your life flask should have better rolls that mine, but the important one is definitely instant recovery while on low life.



Bottled faith is not required at all, I just was able to farm up and go for it, so there's definitely something to push for. If you don't have bottled faith, run a Sulphur flask or Atziri's promise and take off avatar of fire.

--Build tricks and tips

So while mapping you're generally just slapping down firestorms while casting storm brand occasionally to maintain power charges, however for tankier rares/unique spawns you'll have to cast things like storm brand (to ignite) and wave of conviciton/Infernal cry to maximize one shotting potential so you're not being hung up.

--Bossing skill order:
prep boss spawn with Arcanist Brand(Generates Power charges/Onslaught/ign)>Assassin's Mark on spawn>/Infernal cry at the same time>flasks> firestorm -- The goal here is to get an aditional 6 link to automate assassin's mark/wave of conviction.
Repeat applying brands/infernal cry every so often waiting for unleash stacks to proc and certain boss's to move around. Adapting to this playstyle and making the most out of unleash while things are moving around is something that takes some getting used too, you'll want to spam but in some situations, especially against sirus/uber elder there's going to be times where theyre moving around a lot so being patient with your set up is crucial to not run OOM.


--Pantheon's
Brine King:
We've got little in the way of stun avoidance/immunity, so this is the best thing we can get.
Gruthkul:
More physical damage reduction, tho I usually swap to Ryslatha for bossing.

I've done most content in the game with this build, it's 100% doable. Everything is there for this build to be a success, but it does require some thinking and adapting to the playstyle.
