actually you don't get nerfed in damage.. there's another change in AE i haven't mentioned in my guide.. physical damage from chaotic resonance is flat now instead of % making it more easy to scale with str and %damages.. also, i didn't mention visor of the shadowlord but i kind of suggested in the pic (i do that sometimes).. aside from the all skills, it has like 45-50%? EBD.. and EBD is the only elemental needed in this build.
the physical damage now in AE is 140 from distortion wave and another 120 from chaotic resonance.. those are just at max lvl, not ultimate.. add in the armor reduction from chaotic resonance, %damages, absolute RR from study prey and the scaling with strength.. sands of sleep isn't necessary in higher levels anymore especially with high CDR
i feel stacking %physical is better than stacking %elemental for this build.. so athena's battle greaves is another solid choice.. and for ragnarok, sweet holy neith's will (thank god they still haven't raised the dex req for that)
edit: one thing i like here is this isn't a glass cannon.. it's still a cannon but not fragile.. so less running, more attacking
