Weapons

Look for a good wand and focus that increases the level and damage of all spells. Since we are using all three elements, it isn't necessary to get a specific increase to one element, but getting an increase to fire damage is the best option since Ember Fusillade is the most damaging skill in our kit.

List of Weapons

Armor and Accessories

We will use Leopold's Applause Glove to bypass a percentage of enemy elemental resistances with our spells. This works well with the rest of our kit because all of our damage comes from our myriad of elemental spells.

Focus on equipping your armor and accessories with the right resistances, as well as adding spirit to your amulet. You can use rings with guaranteed elemental resistances, such as Ruby rings, but try to avoid getting chaos Resistance, as we will be utilizing the Chaos Innoculation passive.

Lastly, try to equip as much Mana and Mana Regeneration as possible to ensure we continue to benefit from the Zenith support rune on all our spell casts.

Armor

Saqawal's Rune of the Sky is perfect for this build because it increases all our elemental damage. The rest of our runes can be used to bolster our elemental resistances and offer some flexibility depending on the elemental resistance rolls we get on our other armor.

Prioritize getting all three charm slots on your belt, as well as mana. In addition to getting a good elemental resistance roll, you can add a Desecrated modifier to your belt and add an aditional elemental resistance modifier to compensate for any elemental resistance you lack.

Our charms will focus on preventing us from being disabled. We will use the Thawing and Stone charms to avoid being stunned or frozen. Additionally, we will use the Dousing Charm to prevent being ignited. This is necessary so that our energy shield can regenerate between encounters.

Our skills will consist of skills that generate elemental infusions, and skills that expend them to deal more damage. Living Bomb and Orb of Storms will be our spells to used to generate elemental infusions, while also having a decent chance to shock and ignite targets at the same time.

Our two main damaging skills will be Ember Fusillade and Frost Darts and ideally, will be the main skills that we will spend our elemental infusions on. Ball Lightning will be used primarily to induce shock, and Frost Bomb will be used to inflict elemental exposure and boost the damage of all our spells.

Naturally, our two main persistent skills will be Siphon Elements and Trinity. These skills will increase our chances of getting more elemental infusions and increase all of our elemental damage.

Screenshots taken from Path of Building

For our ascendancy skills, Refracted Infusions will allow us to quickly amass all three types of elemental infusions, used in conjunction for Shaper of Storms. We will also take Tempest Caller to gain access to Elemental Storm for increased damage.

We will take as many elemental damage nodes as possible while getting spell damage whenever possible. Take the nodes leading up to Alternating Current and Power Conduction for Shock, Echoing Frost for Chill, and Echoing Flames for Ignite. We want to inflict all three elemental debuffs on our targets to increase damage and generate elemental infusions.

This build uses Chaos Innoculation to mitigate all chaos damage. To increase survivability, we will take plenty of energy shield nodes, such as Insightfulness, Melding, and the Dampening Shield. Since we cannot rely on the life stat, we will take these energy shield nodes instead.

We will be using the new Heart of the Well diamond introduced in Patch 0.3. This unique jewel allows us to obtain explicit Desecrated modifiers, giving us stats that are unique to desecrated modifiers.

For our other two jewel slots, we will use two Sapphires. Focus on getting modifiers that aren't specific to one element to increase the damage of all our spells.

Elementalist Stormweaver Playstyle and Skill Rotation

Mobbing Rotation

We will use most of our spells to generate elemental infusions and expend them with the next skill. The specific skills we use can depend on the elemental infusion generated, but here's a basic example. The rotation is as follows:

  1. Cast Orb of Storms twice to inflict shock, and to generate elemental infusions when it expires.
  2. Cast Frost Bomb to inflict chill, and to inflict the elemental exposure debuff.
  3. Cast Living Bomb on an enemy target for damage.
  4. Cast Ember Fusillade, preferably infused.
  5. Cast Frost Darts to damage and chill targets.
  6. Start the next encounter using an infused Ball Lightning to shock targets, which can be followed by any spell.

Bossing Rotation

The rotation is very similar to our mobbing rotation. However, we have the option of using the Orb of Storms and the Frost Bomb before the encounter begins, which gives us elemental infusions to use before the encounter starts. We can opt not to use Ball Lightning against bosses so that we don't have to get close to them. The rotation is as follows:

  1. Cast Orb of Storms twice to inflict shock, and to generate elemental infusions.
  2. Cast Frost Bomb to inflict chill, and to inflict the elemental exposure debuff.
  3. Cast Elemental Weakness to lower target elemental resistances.
  4. Cast Living Bomb on the target for some damage.
  5. Cast Ember Fusillade, preferably infused.
  6. Cast Frost Darts to damage and chill the target.
