aer0's Ethereal Knives Lightpoacher Raider - 10div Mapping Challenge

This is my second entry into my own 10 Divine Challenge series: Mapping Edition. This is inspired by CaptainLance and Ruetoos 10div Uber Boss Challenge, but with a goal of making effective and fun mappers for 10 divines with no requirements for boss killing (this one cost me under 6 div). I think this is a useful series that will inject some more cheap mappers into Wraeclast, something which appears to be fairly lacking. The builds that get released seem to be league starters, then end game juicers. A LOT of folks exist in the middle ground, and I hope this series can provide some inspiration or fun for more players.

One of my all time favorite items was Abyss League Lightpoacher. The item was nerfed, and the damage of the item remaining unbuffed for nearly 20 leagues slowly faded it into obscurity. However, with the buff in 3.21 which gives 100% chance for a spirit charge (instead of 20%) and "Gain 5% of Physical Damage as Extra Damage of each Element per Spirit Charge" was added. This adds a ton of damage if you build around tri-elemental.

Most folks using this helmet are trying to cheese ways to never expend the charges, however, because we only want to map, we want to *use* the charges! Spirit burst may not have massive damage, but when combined with Nimis and some projectile speed for double hits, the additional clear is phenomenal. This build with Lightpoacher is Ethereal Knives on steroids! The number of projectiles is incredibly satisfying.

Map bosses, essences etc drop easily before you run out of spirit charges, but I don't recommend doing any actual bossing with this build without modification. I somehow managed to kill exarch with this build (and no spirit charges at all) but it wasn't fun. As far as a mapper though? I can't think of a mapper I've made thats been better than this for less than 6 divines. As always, enjoy!
