Lightning Spear Huntress - frenzy charges, and Elemental Infusion.

10

So I know a few people have asked this, but reading through those replies I haven't found an answer that seems/feels good. I'm playing Lightning Spear Huntress like a lot of folk.

I'd rather not use the unique gloves, but putting Electrocute on Herald of Thunder doesn't seem to be doing anything? Is it just because I'm still leveling, in Act 3, and just got Electrocute? Herald of Thunder is only lvl 10. I also only have my first two Ascendancy Points (Elemental Infusion), but I can get my next two.

Some people are putting Sniper's Mark on Cast on Crit, or Cast on Shock. I assume shocking might be easier to hit than crit for bosses, but I'm planning to spec into Crit.

Then again is Elemental Infusion really that good/important? It doesn't seem to be working for me, but I'm doing well so far. Maybe I'll just go with Mystic Harvest for survivability.

Elemental infusion is good once the frenzy generation is solved.

To have a decent frenzy generation with herald of thunder you need to have decent dmg to apply the electrocute + Combat Frenzy. You will get a "free" charge every 4s, not faster. Enought to clear one pack from time to time.

To have constant frenzy charge you need to apply sniper mark way faster, so sniper mark manual or with a trigger. To make it works you will need a lot of crit chance.

So :
- respec to crit node, it's better early
- cast sniper mark manually
- herald + electrocute
- combat frenzy + charge profusion

The rotation will be : cast sniper, crit, get one charge, await for the 30 volt charge, cast one spear. If you get a free charge wait 30 volt charge, cast another. If not, recast sniper.

It's always going to be average / mediocre until everything comes together.
