Would something like this work?

Hey I’m curious if something like http://www.grimtools.com/calc/pZrx8326 would work. Since I’m a noob I have no idea about which devotions and gear to choose though.

I tried, pox doesnt do enough single target damage.

my current build im going through ultimate with is pox/swarm/storm totem transmuted to do vit damage.

pox and swarm proc twin fang and wendigo mark like you wouldnt believe and storm totem does some insane damage when you have 2 or 3 up.

so I guess my suggestion is swap bond for possession, and swap grasping vines and reworking other points with +to skills to get a source of single target damage. sigil and storm totem are both good.

this was my take on the build, currently on act 2 in ultimate and it has been smooth sailing without super crazy gear.

not the most damage: it clears trash quickly enough to breeze through most areas and im pretty much god mode most of the time, but bosses take a while to whittle down.

Here is what you need to think about:

  1. What damage types will the build employ?
  2. Resist reduction to support those damage types (key)
    • Remember you want flat RR (-N), in addition to CoF (-N%) and "% reduced target’s resistances) aka (-%N)
  3. Passive / active skills to support your damage / survival
  4. Devotions to support all of the above
  5. AOE vs Single Target

The skill setup you posted essentially “lacks teeth”. Most builds are using pox for the OA debuff and to proc certain devotion abilities due to the fact that pox ticks and spreads quickly.

I would take a look at this build:

While having the required gear is going to allow high end content clear, this build is a good example of synergy between abilities for a conjurer.

Using the devotion setup in that link, you utilize the time dilation devotion ability to fire off multiple uses of key abilities while maintaining the highest possible levels of damage synergy and resist reduction.

Also you would want to take the “possession” ultimate ability since your build is dealing vitality damage.

if that can help, or give any idea here is my bloody pox build, sure not the fastest build, but unkillable, or almost

Was curious about bloody pox, this is what i came up with so far:

(swap weapons)

I am halfway through act 2 Elite. Elemental resistances are higher as shown, due to the buff from the familiar. Haven´t died once. 20 hours played.
Single target dmg is great, so far.

Falcon Swoop, Acid Spray and Twin Fangs from the devotion tree proc like crazy.

My 2 cents.
