Trying to upgrade an old meme build, but I'm lost

So once upon a time I saw the Ulzuin’s Chosen skill and decided make a build based on taking things with the name “Ulzuin” in it. Like a genius. I eventually created this character https://www.grimtools.com/calc/JVl4xjXV

It works by putting Stun Jacks, Grenado, and Canister Bomb on a simple button mashing macro to create an inconsistent channeling skill. You sometimes throw one of each then run around waiting for cooldowns, and sometimes you throw six canister bombs(and other accoutrement) in a row and watch screen try to rip itself apart.

I reached the endpoint in the above build by essentially throwing things at the wall anytime I ran into some kind of major issue with damage/survivability/energy management. This character somehow managed to do all main campaign+rogue dungeons(albeit not with flying colors) but predictably fell flat with even mid level Crucible or SR. My damage in particular dropped off a cliff at only lvl 25ish SR.

I’m looking to drop the meme of having to include Ulzuin themed stuff and simply make something leaner and meaner. I think the following setup is a decent start: https://www.grimtools.com/calc/0V00oxJV The point of this gear is I can achieve 100% lightning damage with all three of my main skills. It’s surprisingly impossible to get all the damage types cleanly converted to anything else despite the number of available conversions for these skills. I think Crate assumed people would exercise restraint and only choose one or two skills.

I’ve stalled out here. I don’t how my first build even survives to be honest, and I’m not sure Elementalist is the best pick. The only thing I’m not willing to compromise is using all three of the skills supported by Ulzuin’s Chosen. My inconsistent pseudo-channeling skill setup is very pleasing when the grenades keep refreshing.

i did one of those, sans the ulzuin meme, i refer to it as my arthritis mentalist, and as the name suggests it’s completely absurd and borderline stupid to play
