Ascendancies
go for Patient Reaper for Normal Lab, Prolonged Pain for Cruel Lab, Swift Killer for Merciless Lab, and Harness the Void for Uber Lab.
Gear
you want to focus on getting a good 6-link chest, as this will be your main source of damage. A good budget option is a Tabula Rasa, but eventually, you'll want to upgrade to a rare chest with life, energy shield, and some resistances. For your weapon, use a wand with spell damage and cast speed. Look for a wand with the mod "gain x% of non-chaos damage as extra chaos damage", as this will boost your damage significantly.
Helmet
use a rare base with life, energy shield, and resistances. Look for the enchant "15% of Contagion's damage applies to the main target" to boost your damage even more. For your gloves and boots, use rare bases with life, energy shield, and resistances. For your belt, use a Stygian Vise with life, energy shield, and resistances.
Amulet
use a rare base with life, energy shield, and spell damage. Look for the mod "x% increased cast speed" and "x% increased damage over time". For rings, use rare bases with life, energy shield, and resistances. Look for the mod "x% increased cast speed" and "x% increased damage over time".
Jewels
look for rare jewels with life, energy shield, and damage over time. Look for the mod "x% increased spell damage" and "x% increased chaos damage". You can also use a Watcher's Eye with the mod "x% increased energy shield recovery rate while affected by Discipline" for extra sustain.
Skill tree
prioritize life and energy shield nodes, as well as nodes that boost your spell damage, chaos damage, and damage over time. Grab the "Profane Bloom" and "Malediction" nodes for extra damage and curse effectiveness.
Gem links
use Essence Drain in a 6-link with Void Manipulation, Controlled Destruction, Efficacy, Swift Affliction, and Empower. Use Contagion in a 4-link with Increased Area of Effect, Faster Casting, and Arcane Surge. Use Malevolence, Despair, and Discipline as your auras. For your movement skill, use Flame Dash.
Overall, this build is great for players who enjoy a more methodical playstyle and want to slowly chip away at packs of enemies. With proper gear and investment, this build can take on all content in the game.
