same thing, except self-wielding infinity, gets you about 50% of the damage from before but okay here you go

the fact that

a ) it runs out of mana immediately, which is both a survivability and a clear speed issue

b ) it barely tickles mobs with high resists, making it ridiculously bad outside of p1 games. nvm it's ridiculously bad there too

what makes you think it runs out of mana immediately?

how does it barely tickle mobs with high resists? it has sunder charm and 35% lightning pierce on top of conviction lol

this build would demolish p8 lol

try tele stomping infector of souls and see how long your mana lasts.

and last time I checked 85 > 35. check your maxroll links vs broken immunes and compare the dps numbers

by all means, try it out in a p8 game and report back with your findings

yeah 85 is greater than 35, what is your point?

sunder breaks immunes, conviction comes into place when in range, and self spell penetration gets added when you cast the actual spell

sure i'll make the build and show you lol

i made a similar build with stupid frost nova, 200 fcr and ES, and survival was very much not an issue, this was before sunder charms and frost nova itself sucks, that was the issue

Your build focuses too much on res/life for a 95% ES build.

A few suggestions/alterations -
*Craft mana boots with plr/psn res, the mana regen is also extremely beneficial
*Magefist over Trang because of the nice mana regen, better for an es setup
*Mana/life scs over res/life for obvious reasons
*Hoto over Eschuta can be argued for various reasons, but both are fine for 200fcr.

Otherwise the build is fine, will do p8 content just fine.

E: I'd also forgo Frozen armor/TS and drop remaining points into warmth
