Hey Bashtart,

Wanted to write saying thank you for the build! I played it as my league starter (never played spark before) and it was super smooth for me. Here's some advice/tips for people playing this that I experienced in Abyss:

Transitioning to spark:

- I started sparking at level 73, equip your spark threshold jewel, +1 pierce jewel. Then you need call of the brotherhood and any cheap 5-link will work great (can probably do a 4 but I just bought the crappiest BBBGG 5L I could find and it was fine).
- I played flameblast totems up until 73
- Bosses are a little bit hard early, expect to die sometimes with blade vortex, this build is a little bit squishy. Once you get better gear and items bosses will be a breeze. Kiting around is SUPER important for staying alive, also don't be afraid to use spark for added DPS.
- Get your labs done as fast as possible, all 4 are super important for this build, especially pious path for survivability (I got pious path 4th but it might actually be worth taking it 3rd - life gets much better once you have pious path)
- Do not use MOM until you have enough mana regen + pious path! Bashtart said this in his guide and I think a lot of people miss this
- Keep your BV in your 4-link and spark in the 5/6-link, BV will kill bosses plenty fine on the 4

My own thoughts/ideas:

- Impulsa's is AMAZING. Get it ASAP for map clearing, absolutely insane item. Should be your first upgrade. Vinktar felt extremely strong for me too, and added to spells is super cheap right now! Got mine for 15c.
- I chose to run a sulphur flask of warding instead of the unique sulphur. You can get more duration if you make it Experimenter's and the warding lets you drop curses which is dank for mapping.
- I personally LOVE the flask nodes up near witch, I recommend grabbing them (especially since we path by them anyways). Flask duration is heavily underrated by many players.
- I am currently actually using both heralds and arctic armor, while running MOM and it feels okay. I have about 200 unreserved mana and don't actually run into many issues with running oom. But I'm not 100% sure about if this is ideal yet. Regardless, full mana reservation setup and MOM are still compatible if you want.
- So far I've made it up to T13 maps and it can clear rare/corrupted bosses just fine, trash packs absolutely melt. The build is amazing, stick with it and you will feel the power once you get your items!


Edit: Last thing is a tip for the build while doing abysses!
This build cannot face tank massive hits in red maps from the abyss rares when map mods are dangerous. Sometimes the slicing guys will simply one shot you before your regen kicks in. The strategy you want to go for is always be prepared to shield charge back when they go invis. Same for the bats, when they burrow, you want to juke back with shield charge and keep spamming sparks so they freeze when they come out and don't hit you with the initial hit. Luckily a fast shield charge gives us an effective dodging ability.

I am enjoying this build a lot, so far T6 with uncapped resistances (gear savings) are easy (w/o bosses ofc) but I need to know if I should get those hrimburn gloves for my BV or stick to budget version?
