PoE Raider, Lightning builds

PoB: Why Raider? Haven't played her before. 20% Exposure. Great avoidance defenses including high evasion (with damage reduction from Wind Dancer), Dodge capping is doable, move speed for mechanics dodging, Phasing + Ailment Immunity, what's not to love? Why Brands (why Penance)? Because I love the play style. I've played 3/5 Brands with Penance and Arcanist left to go. I want to do cold conversion because then I can hopefully leverage Taste of Hate, one of my favorite flasks in the game for its damage and survivability boo

I'd like to put together a Cold Conversion Sweep character. Seen a few Sweep videos online (FastAF & Mathil) but want to do the gearing my own way. 1. putting Sweep in a pseudo 7/8 link helm similar to this one in the picture 2. 6 link totem setup in weapon (voidforge or crafted rare using Fleshripper/ Banishing Blade/ Exquisite Blade) 3. double curse setup in chest (Explode or Carcass Jack depending on ascendancy) or just get curses on rings and use this 6L for another setup What would be the ideal ascendancy to go with? Trying to decide between Assassin, Slayer, Berserker, or Raider.

So I'm attempting to make something interesting with a charged dash raider. I have a very very rough pob setup that is not meant to look complete. A few questions I have: Would the Avatar of Slaughter route + getting more frenzy charges be better than taking Avatar of the Veil? I don't know how the POB deals with the exposure. I kind of like the Avatar of the Veil phasing route since it gives more defenses but at the same time the phasing may not be all that useful while using charged dash. Are elemental penetration nodes wort

I had a cluster jewel drop with the vengeful commander notable on it and thought it could be interesting to use in a build with all 3 auras and all 3 elemental damage types on wild strike. here is what I have planned so far although it probably could be optimized by someone better than me. Also the cluster jewels are what I've already got to work with. Any advice before I commit to this would be fantastic.

Rate my build! I found a Debeon's Dirge in Delve SSF, so I was thinking of making a build with it that would be pretty powerful and also satisfying to play. I tried a couple of different things but they all seemed to either have insane gear requirements or lacking defenses in some way or another. &x200B; So I settled on going for Raider! With a two-hander... and RT? It's a strange build overall, but I was surprised with how much life I was able to squeeze out of it while still getting Acro/Phase Acro. The biggest weakness is managing to meet the Int requirement without going crazy...
