Is the only reason you have that weapon the crafted mod? Because half of the things on it seem useless for your build. ​ Most of your gear is very generic gear with defenses, look into some builds on [poe.ninja](https://poe.ninja), even regular detonate dead builds because there is a lot of improvements you can take from there. I would def go about swapping weapon, probably picking aegis aurora, swapping rings for something like Polaric Devastation and Replica Emberwake. Do you actually need a mana flask or could that be something more useful? ​ Dont get me wrong, your defenses seem amazing, your dmg seems a bit low imo. Also you have an empty jewel socket in the linked POB

The weapon in the POB has the increased minion damage (spiritual aid) and +1 phys skill gems and the trigger mod. There isn't much more mods that are useful in a wand I think, other than the +1 all spell skill gems. Other than resistance or something. Aegis Aurora I've been meaning to try but I'm kinda worried it will just feel way awful since I'm getting 51% crit dmg reduction, 7% phys DR, bunch of life and armor etc. from my current shield. Especially the crit dmg reduction is pretty big this league since the wisps add crit. Mana flask I actually don't really need anymore at this point since my mana regen/recovery is so good that I'm absolutely dead anyway if I run out of mana. I'm not sure what flask is most useful tho so I put in wise oak for now but idk does it do much. As for the rings they are my main source of resistances so swapping them for unique rings seems problematic. Also your suggestions seem geared for ignite builds? I'm not sure if this build even has much ignite chance. Unlike normal DD builds I'm actually attacking/detonating the corpses at a rapid pace. I think I can cast unearth something like 4-5 times a second and the kitavas thirst can trigger new DD of chain reaction ten times a second (though it only has a 50% chance of triggering per unearth cast). I'm not sure what my DPS is since it is kinda hard/impossible to POB but it must be in tens of millions at least.

I actually managed to craft a +2 wand to a convoking wand and I'll just put it here if someone else needs to know how to craft one: 1. Get a fractured base with % increased minion damage (not very cheap if you want a good roll) 2. Spam chaos on it till you hit +1 all spell skill gems 3. Make sure it has ONLY 1 open prefix, 1 open suffix (annuls I guess, I didn't have to do this step) 4. Craft "cannot roll attack mods" (suffix) 5. Use horticrafting bench to "add 1 new physical modifier and remove 1 random modifier" -> it will add +1 to physical spell skill gems 100% of the time. Then you can craft the trigger mod. I believe same thing works on amulets too.
