Synopsis:

The primary focus of this build aims to capture a spellblade or battlemage feel. It uses Kitava’s Thirst as its main source of damage and triggers spells with melee attacks. Melee attacks are able to spend the needed mana to trigger Kitava’s Thirst since we socket Archmage support into The Surging Thoughts. Choice of spells for Kitava’s Thirst is flexible, but this build goes with Vaal Arc and Lightning Conduit. Defenses focus on abilities/skills that allow the character to “take less damage”, cause enemies to “deal less damage”, and slowing enemies through temporal chains and chill. The build has a lot of buttons to press, but most of them can trigger Kitava’s Thirst while buffing and/or moving at the same time. This build has minimal crafting, since it uses full uniques. Estimated cost is between 7-9 div for the endgame version in the POB (with mid league prices).
