PoE Cruelty, Spell builds

new player here - lvl 94 Wave of Conviction elementalist in standard league. Following build from POE Vault. I can run T16 but most rare map mods are a no-go for me - I started some of the elder/shaper quests but that's it. I know life is lacking. I'm not sure adding 500 life will enable me to really step beyond my current plateau, but you guys know better. Please be nice with your comments! The POE reddit has been rude to me when i shared my build before 'this sucks' and 'omg this is so bad' does not really help new players.

It's the part of the league where I sell all my stuff and try out weird ideas. I have the beginning of a build and I am at a wall, or crossroads more like. on how to progress and i would like to hear you guys opinion. The core concept i wanted to try out is: 1. ralakesh boots with+1 endurance corruption , Arn's Anguish, x2 synth endurance rings (got downgraded to just one +1 endurance precursors and a ring of kalandra due to budget) , a +2 endurance charge staff, and charms which give % life regen rate and, most crucially

Goal: Have 2 Forbidden Rites that chain off of each other using 2 CWDT and a Falling Zombie. &x200B; TLDR: ~~I believe when CWDT attempts to trigger a spell that cannot be triggered due to the ICD of CWDT, the damage for that spell gets set to 50% of the required damage of the CWDT. I don't know if this is documented anywhere, but it definitely isn't on the Wiki.~~ TLDR (edit): This is why you shouldn't over complicate things. The ICD is locking out the damage tracker also, which is why RZoF needs to do anywhere from 50%-99% of damage, because it will cause the two FRs to ping-pong.

Hey, I just stuck at the moment on how to improve this build in case of survivability or damage. If anyone has any advice highly appreciated. Budget 30 div+ but can grow. POB:

It seems it would be a fun gimmick build. I saw a build of this on reddit, but it was outdated for 3.17. I now tried to remake it with newer stuff, and this is what I have so far: Please note there is 2 variants, a war-staff variant and another one that uses regular staff (or replica cold iron). I set up 2 different trees, gear, and skill groups for either. As much as I wanted to incorporate Discharge of Misery, it isn't justified, as even with it removing the 60% ailment damage reduction that regular discharge has, it still is far
