So basically I wanted to play hit-based kinetic blast as I got bored with CF Champ and didn't want to make crazy int stacking gear. As a result I researched some Omni KB builds and decided to make one myself because I didn't quite like other approaches. It is my first self made biuld so any constructive criticism is welcome.

I'm posting this so maybe some1 can improve it further. Build could use some more damage and maybe different defence layers. Current iteration IMO is not bad, but I didn't really know what shield to use and how to get nice phys dmg reduction, so I opted for lightning coil.

Key points of the build:

Fork - with 40% chance to create extra projectile while forking from crucible tree, we multiply our projectiles a lot, not needing to go for pierce approach at all

VC - probably self explanatory, more clear and damage

Ascendant - provides rage from berserker; onslaught, phasing, suppress, frenzy charges from raider and tailwind, extra projectile, more dmg with projectile distance and dmg from mark effect.

Skills cost life instead of 30% of mana cost - this is used to proc adrenaline from Tanu Ahi

Mana cost of skills - POB shows 0 mana cost for KB, but IG it is actually 2 mana, it needs to be at least 1 to proc inspiration

Massive thread of hope - only matters if you get lvl 98+, you can use other passive points on tree instead

Interrogation - damage

Ancestral vision - ailment immunity paired with essence mod on boots

Inspired learning - clear for legion, can use lethal pride in same slot for %inc strength and leech

Mageblood - QOl, build should be fine without it, but I haven't tested it nor am I going to, so if you want to try it without one, feel free to comment how it goes.

For any1 wondering how much would it take to start this off, if you got a wand, you are probably looking at about 50 div investment. You can swap to the build at lvl 72 as I did.

I hope I touched all things I wanted in the post, hope to get some tips to improve and enjoy the build if you want to make it.
