PoE Hierophant, Lightning builds

Hey Guys and Girls, My Head tells me to calculate this Idea through and i definitly could take a helping hand. The Pob provided is just for the general setup, it isnt fully optimised and is dealing way to less damage. That said im just trying to find a way for the defensive outline of a theory, pob doesnt seem to be able to calculate exactly. &x200B; Theory: The Recoup Life Mechanic allows us to quite savely use a Low-Life spell setup in Combination with MoM, without taking Shavronnes. Instead we will rely on Pet

Thoughts Pros \-Decent Damage/Clear \-Very good EHP (Block) \-Simple gear choices (Uniques everywhere lol) \-Budget 10ish ex? Clusters easy to craft.

Mana can be easily restored to full for AOE/MoM purposes using a mana flask (as it doesn't nec

The general premise is that you would play a character with like 10,000 mana and get 1500 base lightning for manabond when all your mana is gone and you use the skill. At this point it seems like you would use archmage... but what if you didn’t? What if you somehow got all your mana gone and then spammed the skill super fast with no mana cost at all? Enter fanaticism with guest appearances from inspiration and the Templar mana co
