Here's my take on Relic of the Pact, as an Elementalist!

This version features Hrimsorrow to convert 100% of Blood Sacrament's damage to Cold, and Heatshiver to then gain a significant amount of Fire damage. Because the individual hits are so high, this build can inflict long Freezes, and cap Chill (and Shock, thanks to Elementalist) on all enemies, even ubers. Elementalist was my choice here for the improved exposure, extra AoE while mapping, capped Shock, and QoL from Primal Aegis and reflect immunity. I'm also using Traitor to have 100% uptime on a Bismuth to cap resists, and a Quicksilver and Progenesis.

Bossing feels great with the high damage, capped chill, and 100% uptime on flasks.

Mapping is surprisingly good. I use a bit of a different setup while mapping than the bossing setup in the PoB:

• Hypothermia/Elemental Penetration -> Increased Critical Strikes/Awakened Area of Effect, which leaves a bit more life unreserved, and gives great coverage along with Elementalist AoE.
• Hatred -> Petrified Blood

Between 3.4k life unreserved while casting, Petrified Blood, CWDT Steelskin, Elementalist Primal Aegis, great AoE, and freezing all enemies that aren't freeze immune (looking at you, Khroma, Warden of the Vents), the build maps pretty comfortably. Its still far from hardcore viable, but I was able to map from 99 to 100 in 100%+ packsize corrupted t16 cemeteries without losing exp from dying.

On the QoL side, this has:

• Bleed/poison immunity from tree and abyss jewel
• 60% less ignite duration from Soul of Abberrath and (multiplicatively) 30% reduced ailment duration from the shield Crucible tree allocating Arcane Sanctuary
• Chill/freeze immunity from Forbidden Flesh/Flame
• 100% uptime Quicksilver and Progenesis
• Elementalist reflect immunity
• Shatter SFX to cover the Blood Sacrament SFX

Feel free to ask any questions you might have and I'll try to answer as best as I can!
