I’ve been trying to work on a Conjuration build that runs all 3.
Hydra - Lightning Spear - Ice Blades - Inferno - Firebolt - Fireball
Essentially it’s a fireball / hydra build that run’s Esu’s ferocity a Staff that runs the 100% attack speed aspect and a amulet the aspect that gives 38% attack speed on crit with core skills.
The ultimate goal is to buff up the hydra / ice blades / spear as much as possible as I’ve heard attack speed will makes them all attack faster. Using iceblades to gain additional cooldown reduction.
Enchantments - Frost Nova (Conjuration skills have 30% chance on hit to release a frost Nova - Fireball (Needed an AOE component) and probably switch to either hydra or firebolt on bosses.
Mana Generation - Aspect (Using a cooldown Restores 25 mana) i.e Ice Blades and Lightning Spear and Aspect where you get 4 mana when you CC an enemy.
Gear - +Hydra on Helm and + Fireball on Gloves, Conjuration Damage / Skills, Lucky Hit, Cooldown Reduction, Mana Cost Reduction, Typical Damage stats Crit, Crit DMG, Vuln Dmg
Aspects -
Helm - 20% Lucky Hit With Barrier
Chest - Disobedience (Armor Stacking)
Gloves - 1 additional hydra
Pants - Ice Heart Brais
Boots - 50% chance to spread CC effects
Weapon (2h Staff) - Esu’s Ferocity gives you 100% attack speed
Amulet - Core Skill Crits give you 38% attack speed
Ring - 25% damage with barrier or 4 mana on CC
Ring - 25 mana on Cooldown
Paragon - Obviously Conjuration tree for dmg and the attack speed and then still trying to figure this out the rest but most likely the typical damage boards along with some damage reduction thrown in.
Obvious Weaknesses - Lake of defensive cooldowns as the build runs 0 but I’m hoping the amount of conjuration spells that will be triggering frost novas combined with heavy damage reduction on Chest / Pants / Helm and Aspects will make it somewhat viable. Also will be getting barriers every time I cast iceblades / lightning spear / inferno. Also additional CC chances with inferno and immobilization on crippling flames
I have no idea if this will work but am going to put the build up tonight now that I have most of the pieces. If anyone has tried anything close and has any advice at all please let me know. I simply am trying to keep myself interested in this game after running arc lash and ice shards for the past 3 weeks.
