PoE Blade Blast, Bladefall builds

I have been trying to figure out if I want to make another character to try the self-chill berserker. I decided I wanted to try to make the build a spellcaster. It plays like BFBB, but with the insane movement and action speed from self-chill berserker. - 5k life, 2k ES and good damage w. block and duo-regen is the current strongpoints of the build. - It is a bit expensive with 6-link impulsa, but should make insane clearing with both Herald of Ash and shock proliferation. Do you think it will work, or am I missing something? EDIT: I was missing something,

PoB: Exsanguinate + Arcanist Brand From what I saw, Exsanguinate doesn't seem like an amazing spell to self-cast. Spell Totems seem like the obvious solution, but I think Arcanist Brands will provide the smoothest playstyle. Exsanguinate doesn't seem to suffer from its downsides (a lot). Question: Is the DoT debuff affected by the damage reduction from Arcanist Brand? I can see it going both ways depending on how one interprets the wording. If not, this could turn out godly. If it does, still not the biggest deal when

PoB: Profile: This is my single char from Ritual which helped me doing everything (40 challenges etc). Put all my currency in it, but have no clue how much that was (maybe 150-200 Ex) and if I spent it well. I crafted all the gear by myself, but won't go too deep into that, since I did a lot of mistakes and the Harvest changes will render some of it useless. Just one recipe, which should work in future: Buy a rune dagger (or

I was messing around in Ritual SSF for a fresh start and found [[Ngamahu's Flame]]. With decent damage, 60% phys to fire conversion and 20% fire pen, it seemed like a good fit for a phys spell battlemage build. In trying to figure out how to also take advantage of the axe's 20% chance to trigger Molten Burst, I discovered that it can trigger Cast on Crit. Molten Burst doesn't take a socket so it's functionally an extra link for CoC. Triggered Blade Fall with Spell Cascade creates an expected 7.5 blades per proc, which is a reasonably good fit for having Blade Blast trigger 1/5 of the time on a

0.71 actual cast time (bf + bb) causing tooltip to be inaccurate, it assumes 0.3 cast time (divide total dps by 2.385 for rough estimate of real dps) 225 mil normal dps 120 mil sirus dps using a conservative estimate of 100 poisons applied recently, but way more poisons can actually be applied in 4 seconds (60 hit BF + 50 hit BB every 0.71 sec = 150 hits per second for each enemy) 7k hp, 20% regen on 2 sec delay, 90% attack avoid, 54% spell avoid, 30 life on hit (about 100 hits/s or 3000 hp/s per enemy), fortify
