Weapons

This Oracle build makes use of The Unborn Lich unique staff to provide you with the His Scattering Calamity skill for enabling the build. Keep in mind that we want to get the skill to Level 20 so you can have 5 Support Gem slots to equip all the necessary support gems. You can also opt to get a Level 19 His Scattering Calamity but it requires you to sacrifice either Zenith II or Swift Affliction III due to the limited Support Gem slots.

List of Weapons

Armor and Accessories

This build also makes use of The Vertex and The Covenant unique equipment to further boost your damage output and life sustainability respectively to take on high tier maps. Take note that you are required to have Spell Damage Leeched as Life and increased Life Cost Efficiency affixes on The Covenant to maintain your health and scale up your damage.

As for your Accessories, we recommend a Breach Ring with Maximum Mana since we will be using Archmage to scale our damage further. We also want a Solar Amulet with at least a T1 Spirit affix to help equip all our Persistent skills, while allocating Fast Metabolism allows us to overleech our life sustain for better survivability.

Armor

We recommend equipping a Hedgewitch Assandra's Rune of Wisdom and Saqawal's Rune of the Sky on The Unborn Lich unique staff to maximize our damage output through Extra Elemental Damage and Level of All Spell Skills. As for our Chiming Staff, slot in two Greater Glacial Runes for that Extra Cold Damage to further boost our damage.

As for our Armor Runes, slot in a Greater Mind Rune and Greater Desert Rune on our Body Armor to maximize our mana which also boosts our damage output and provide us with more Fire Resistance. For our Gloves, slot in two Greater Mind Runes and Tecord's Gaze to also provide us with more damage and survivability respectively. Use the Soul Core of Zalatl on our Helmet for more mana and damage, while our Boots should have a Greater Storm Rune and Farrul's Rune of Chase to max out our resistances and give us more movement speed.

Equip the Ingenuity unique belt to maximize our Ring bonuses for more damage and survivability. Make sure to get one that has 3 Charm slots so you can equip all the necessary charms for the build.

For your Charms, we recommend the Sanguis Heroum for bleed immunity and Consecrated Ground, Beria's Anguish for fire immunity and Ignited Ground, and a Thawing Charm with increased Duration and Chance to Gain Charge when you Kill an Enemy affixes to help keep your freeze immunity consistent.

Your main damage skill will only consist of spamming His Scattering Calamity to deal huge bursts of damage and critical hits for procing Cast on Critical. Swift Affliction III and Compressed Duration II allows us to rapidly fire off His Scattering Calamity due to our extremely low Hover Duration and Wellsprite Launch Duration.

As for our Persistent skills, we want to use Cast on Critical with Comet and Arc slotted in for better map clearing and AoE damage. Archmage is used to scale up our damage based on our maximum mana, while Siphon Elements allows us to pick up Fire, Cold, and Lightning remnants to infuse our Comet procs with more damage.

Scattering Calamity Oracle Passive Tree

Footage taken from Path of Building.

※ Legend: Red = Weapon Set I | Green = Weapon Set II

It is important to get The Unseen Path ascendancy node so we can allocate Power of the Storm and Calculated Hunter to further boost our damage output. Entwined Realities is also extremely useful so we can allocate various Notable passives near Wildsurge Incantation, Mind Over Matter, Blackflame Covenant, Eldritch Battery, and Conduit.

For our Passive tree nodes, we will mostly focus on stacking Skill Effect Duration, Critical Hit Chance and Damage Bonus, Elemental Damage, and Maximum Mana to enable the build for high tier maps. Keep in mind that Cast Speed is also important so you can comfortably spam your Scattering Calamity for both damage and life sustain.

Our most important Jewel would be the Heart of the Well Diamond as you need Instant Leech to sustain our health and keep us from dying. Against the Darkness is also useful for maxing out our Spirit and Mana to help us equip all the necessary Persistent skills and give us a damage boost based on our maximum mana.

Additionally, equip 3 Sapphire Jewels that focuses on Spell Damage, Critical Hits, and Elemental Damage to bolster our damage output. Make sure to have Recover % of Maximum Life and Mana on Kill affixes to help with your sustainability for fast clearing maps.
