PoE Occultist, Chaos builds

I ran this build as my league starter in 3.17 when ashes was easy to get, I loved the clear speed I got from this as well as how tanky it felt vs bosses so I farmed a lot of uber elders with it, not really invincible but with divine flesh and few phys damage reduction sources not much could one shot it at that time. I kinda wanna do the same build for my second or third build for this league with new Vaal Caustic arrow but not sure how meta has changed and what is new, skipped most of Sentinel and Kaladnra leagues. I could not find all the gear pieces that i used but missing ones were nothing

First off, let me get this out of the way. This isn't going to be a meta build, there's probably better selfcast builds than this too, and i'm sure mines will do better damage. I just hate mines and don't want to play it, and wanted to see what I can do with Archmage on leaguestart. Also many of the more popular ways to scale hexblast involve some very expensive uniques, and since most traditional archmage items are relatively cheap (Ivory Tower <5c launch day). I thought it might be a decent league starter, so lets give it a try. It does roughly 20M Pinnacle Boss DPS, and some PoB warr

Let me preface this with two things. 1. This is an update to the build I posted 2 days ago. Although now I feel it is not just decent, but actually good. 2. I believe this build will have slightly better numbers in 3.20 since we are getting some pretty big buffs to curses but we are also losing base effects of curses, hexblast just has worse numbers for self cast and occultist is getting some minor nerfs. But it will feel much better, since now you don't have to manage doom mechanics. Now into the build itsef. The build has three levels, based around investment. 1. The first level i

Tinkering around a bit with the build I managed to get over 2 million sirus dot dps with pretty low investment (pretty much all of it is used on blackflame). But honestly that works for me considering how shitty all the gear is + and the fact that is dot dps. Defensively the build is lacking, but I feel that the capped glancing blows + temporal chains as an aura makes it tolerable for softcore. The build is mainly centered around 2 things, blackflame and doomblast to trigger elemental overload. With better gear like a cane of kulemak and actually decent rares I feel like the build can be go
