Level 100 MoM Vaal Smite Elementalist^3.27

Notes

Important notes on EE:
Make sure you have absolutely 0 fire damage to spells anywhere
We Link brutality to Flame surge to not deal fire damage with it when creation burning ground. I also link it to frostblink, since i swapped out of Bastion for reflect


Chilling enemies:
1 singular cold damage to spells is enough with the cold mastery to chill enemies. 
You can get it either from a weapon, or a hypnotic eye abyss jewel, or a prefix craft on a rink (cold / lightning)


Grafts for EE version:
We use the Aegis Tulgraft 
-> This gives us a shield nearly equal to elemental Bastion when inflicting exposure. Thats a boon on using the EE Sceptre and allowed me to spec out of Bastion in HC.
-> Level is important and for perfect uptime you want the skill effect duration suffix as well as a Runegraft of the Warp.

2n Graft:
Flamecaller Xophgraft
-> On attacking (with smite or shield charge) we proc fire pillars that cover enemies in Ash
-> Can roll either Fire % damage or faster ailments


Stun Immunity:
We get Stun immunity By Boot essence graft + a jewel in the belt. -> the final 30% i get through 3 tattoos
If you have no tattoos available, replace a rare jewel with an additional Stun avoid jewels
(the easist to roll once are the minion jewels, stun avoidance has the highest weighting there)


Pantheons:
I use Soul of Solaris once im Stun and freeze immune -> Allows for near crit immunity during mapping
Swap to Lunaris whenever you are running Chain maps


Reflect immunity:
Since we have bearly any dmg besides chaos, we are fine with running both ele as well as phys reflect.
Make sure hower to remove Smite from your bar when running reflect maps -> no smiting in reflect maps.


No go map mods:
70% ailment Avoid -> with map effect notes, this bricks the build

Bad Map mods if stacked: -> you have more than 2-3 of these mods, you are zdps
cannot inflict Exposure
Hexproof (does not brick build, but removes makes curses useless)
Less curse effect
+ elemental resistances
Life ax extra ES



How to Craft items:


1) Weapon: prepare for pain

Method 1: Fracture + essence + veiled

Step 1) Fractured Fire dot Multi Sceptre -> Spam Essence of Scorn until you hit DoT Multi
Step 2) Craft Suffixes cannot be changed (Wild bristle Matron is cheaper) -> Veiled exalted / veiled Chaos (Exalted is safer but expensive, no chance to fill prefixes)
Step 3) Block % physical damage and unveil either Fire % or chaos % damage.
Step 4) Craft damage over time
Step 5) Finish off with elemental dmg Harvest craft


Method 2: Alt rolling + recomb AB / AC+ veiled

Recombinator Tip for isolating Mods:

If you have a Scepter with t1 Fire DoT multi but other useless suffixes, lets say from Rog or Trade -> Recombine it using the poe2 recombination: Use a white scepter with a crafte fire% damage prefix.
-> Choose Fire DoT Multi on sceptre 1 and % fire on scepter 2 -> ~50% chance of success 

Now you can use the isolated Fire DoT Multi for further recombination
