[3.15] Voltaxic Rift Eternity Shroud Raider/Deadeye - insane damage, many viable skills

This is the only build I have been playing in Expedition league, and let me tell you one thing: nerfs were not significant enough.

Disclaimer: it does require a lot of investment and/or playtime to get to a similar gear setup. Most of the gear was self-crafted with a lot of pain involved.

The build absolutely blasts through map content and shreds any endgame content. I started it out as a Raider and played it this way for 90% of the league, only swapping to Deadeye for some extra fun.

Main concept:


We build around it. And what goes well with those stats?



What we get from this is an insane combo of powerful shocks, high attack speed and great conversion bonuses.

Playable skills include:

Main skill: Lightning Arrow, Galvanic Arrow, Storm Rain, Barrage, Tornado Shot

The build also utilizes a second 6link for extra utility and a damage spike on bosses, as it will be seen on videos below.

Support skill: Storm Rain in focused ballista setup (with withering touch support to further boost our chaos damage)

Pros:
- Versatility
- Fun gearing progression curve (every upgrade matters and feels good)
- Extremely high damage, up to over 100mil sdps vs single target
- Relatively quick, both in movement speed and map clear
- 75/75% dodge with decent evasion numbers
- Semi-permanent blind on enemies
- Lots of min-maxing potential
- Elemental Ailment Immunity
- Autoaim with non-rain skills (chain+hydropshere)

Cons:
- Shaped-item dependent
- Can be a pain to gear for
- Expensive
- Low EHP
- No physical damage mitigation

Current Gear:
Spoiler


Unoptimized setup with Gloomfang for some extra fun.

Why choose:
Raider - survivability, stable frenzy charge generation
Deadeye - more arrows, higher clear utility




BIG EDIT:

This build will probably be dead in 3.16 due to dodge removal and blind nerfs...
Sitting in HO spamming alts for 4 hours straight is peak PoE gameplay. Thanks, Chris.
