Mostly stolen from Palsteron's video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzIARCtORz8
That version is better - but also quite expensive. This one isn't exactly budget, but is a lot more affordable.
Doesn't have quite as much single target - it's totally fine for map boss rushing and I have done some guardian maps etc, but it's not really an allround build.
Very rough video- https://youtu.be/hvLxWnr58rE
Map had ele res and monsters steal charges (I lose all my charges at start of boss fight) and I was very clumsy navigating the map, but you get an idea of the speed.
Life total is less than I'd like, but we have decent armour and evasion plus 100% spell suppression. If I can be bothered levelling much more I can get another couple of life nodes plus a jewel socket. I also need to replace a medium cluster which will give me another 8% life.
Where we save money
- We don't use the forbidden jewels, we just use eldritch battery, zealots oath and vitality
- We hard path to the reduced duration nodes and anoint Overcharge instead. This means we only need a lvl 16 lightning warp to get 100% reduced, if we have a 30% helm enchant. Obviously we run a 20/21 - but does mean you can start running earlier. I killed kitava with it. And more importantly we don't need a corrupt chest or Empower.
- Pathing this way gives us a bit of spell suppression, and lets us get grace reservation mastery. Which helps us get 100% suppression and fit in auras.
- As we don't need to run empower, and it's not that good without a +1 chest and/or lvl 4 empower we can use faster casting. It's not the best dps link, but it does make warping much smoother. And offsets the fact we might not have the best cluster jewels
- Cheaper/easier to roll cluster. We lose cast speed, but we make it up with the faster casting support. Unless to push lvl 100, will only be able to fit 1 cluster in anyway.
- Enchant in a black sun crest fixes omniscience issues, and is a dex base for supress mastery point. +1 helps with enlighten levels (I lucked into a lvl 4 but it's not needed). It was much cheaper than any rare dex base helm when I bought it - even for an almost perfect roll. Seem to be similar prices for a rare now, if you go that route you can make up Omniscience on a Belt or just have more life. Or if you aren't bothered about capping suppression - just get any useful unique.
- My gloves (Though failed multiple times to hit +2AOE before giving up), rings and boots are fairly decent but were self crafted or things I already had in stash. Belt should be replaced but haven't been bothered to do so yet.
- Trying to get more prolif range on gloves gets expensive in orbs of conflict (And prices have shot up recently) but I'm not convinced it makes that much difference - t1/t2 is probably ok.
- I've got leech on my watcher eye which means I can get a suppression implicit on gloves. If you can manage capping suppresson without needing it (better rolls on gloves/boots and maybe grab a suppression point in the Reflexes cluster, you can use a cheaper watchers eye or get another mod.
Some extra tips
- Until you have a decent gear level and maxed gems etc, just use conc effect all the time instead of woke increased AOE. Saves buying one, and clear isn't affected much as it's mostly from Inpulsa anyway.
- If you do want to tackle anything tankier, you can try swapping in lightning tendrils. It's all the same scalling and hits pretty hard.
- Assuming you are bossrushing with this, resist the temptation to run nastier maps, or to grab altars that make mobs/the boss tougher. At least until you have decent gear and levelled gems. Afterwards you can be a bit more adventurous!
- You can use a divine blessing/lifetap/zealotry setup for a bit more burst damage. I've been to lazy to bother, and cursing + laying down orb of storms is enough buttons for me.

Not got any vids to share ATM, but i plays just like Palsteron showed. It's super fast and fun without feeling too out of control.
