i hope that smth good for scion and not so expensive xD

BTW, something has changed over 3.15-16. In 3.13-14 the Ascendant was clearly superior on single target damage vs Occultist with the same gear. The main reason to play the Occultist was the clear speed.

But the nerfs and global balance changes turned that around. When I made the cluster PoB for the 3.17 Ascendant, I took my final 3.16 Occultist and just changed the tree. But the items stayed the same. Guess what? With the same exact gear, the Occultist now does ~15% more damage to Sirus than the Ascendant!

I guess having to trade a bunch of Int for Block and the new Mastery nodes hit the Ascendant harder than the Occultist.

But there is a catch: Occultist likely won't be able to afford the new things coming our way in 3.17. She's already starved on gem sockets to the point of dropping Frost Shield. There is just no space for Divine Blessing - Hatred. And 2 jewel sockets for Forbidden Flame/Flesh? No way.

Add there: no true stun immunity, no ES regen, no 80% built-in curse mitigation.

Occultist MAY do a bit more damage to go with excellent clear speed IF you manage to solve all those problems. But it sounds too hard to accomplish right now.
