3.7 Path of Building pastebin.com/m9dNrZdX
Change notes from 3.6-
Tricker's Ghost shroud got changed. the recharge is longer. Overall we have a little less Atk/Cast speed boost, but that's relatively minor nerf.
Main change- Winter Orb Duration calculation changed.
With the new system, the Increased Durations from Tree and Items are less effective. It is now less worth it to grab those clusters. I changed my Pastebin to reflect that shift.
Duration is now overall better early game, and worse lategame.
To get the full DPS out of the build, we have to be Actively charging up the skill. (While charging, the Winter Orb shoots just as fast as it used to)
Ultimately there's a little playstyle shift, and the build will still be quite powerful.
Thanks for checking out the guide, have a great day!
-------------------------------
In 3.6:
Shaper downed Day 3- Uber Elder Day 5.
Used Life based version as starter, farmed T-16 with Tabula
Switched to CI in order to farm Uber Elder.
This build will do less damage than Elementalist or Inquisitor but will be much more tanky.
As my build got to endgame:
I have 8k+ ES, (9000 Evasion)50% of attacks, 20% Spell Dodge, Shield for Attack and Spell block change, 8% less damage taken with the new channeling support gem, 9% less damage taken due to Ghost Shroud, 6% Reduced damage taken due to Weave the Arcane Node.
Not to mention Fortify, 72% atk/cast speed boost from Trickster for crazy fast movement skills(They cost no mana and GAIN you mana btw lol), and the new ES leech.
Probably the tankiest caster I have ever played.

3.6 Build-
Pantheon:
Soul of Solaris (But major pantheon is up to debate, a lot of viable choices)
Soul of Tukohama
Bandit:
Alira
Winter Orb- GMP (Greater Multiple Projectile) MOST IMPORTANT- Infused Channeling- Conc Effect - Cold to Fire
(If you are using Shroud of Lightless which I recommend, then the 6th link is built in, but if you are using Vaal Regalia instead, you can use Efficacy or Controlled Destruction etc)
Increased Duration- Vaal Righteous Fire- Vaal Grace- Vaal Discipline
Flame Dash- Faster Casting
Faster ATK- Shield Charge- Fortify- Culling Strike
Zealotry OR Heralds OR Hatred, this one is flexible.
Cast when damage taken- Immortal Call- Increase Duration.
There are some open slots in the links where you can look into Cast on damage taken linking with a curse, or set up a manual cast curse.
Flasks
Atziri's Promise
Dying Sun
Wisest Oak
Diamond Flask
Mana Flask
Quicksilver Flask
