Notes

Restless Ward adds really good smoothness while mapping. Carcass Jack adds damage.

Profane Proxy and a curse-on-hit ring (or gloves with corrupted implicit) are necessary to make this build function properly.
Until you have both, stick with Pyroclast Mines. It's very good!

You will need to use an Enduring Mana Flask to make this build work. Hit it occasionally to maintain mana, pretty simple.

Flesh/Flame options:
-Explosives Expert (DMG)
-Ambush and Assassinate (very weird combo of conditional damage bonuses, actually really good)
-Born in the Shadows (defense)
-One Step Ahead (both)
-Deadly Infusion (DMG, but less)

Sandstorm Visage is less common, but still just as strong as ever, which is great. Make Divines early and buy one, or just farm Sanctum and get one for yourself!


ENDGAME DAMAGE SCALING!

Like most Chaos damage builds, the best way to scale up your damage is through + Gem Levels.

You can get this through your amulet, your wand, your shield, and corrupted chest implicits.

Rare jewels with Crit Multi and mine throwing speed are also a great late-game addition to the build.
