Build Guide

This isn't intended to be a copy-and-paste dummy parse build. I wanted a fun, lightning-heavy MagSorc that still performs well in veteran dungeons and trials. Monolith of Storms, Shattered Paths Signet and Slivers of the Null Arca are all seeing use in current Update 50 MagSorc builds, although my Lightning Staff/Master's Daggers arrangement is intentionally less conventional.I'm relatively new to creating my own builds, so I'd love feedback from experienced MagSorc players and theorycrafters. In particular, I'm interested in suggestions for improving the Master's Daggers setup, skill selection, status-effect uptime, weapon traits/enchantments, CP allocation and rotation.I'm not necessarily trying to turn Static Cling into a cookie-cutter meta parse build, but I do want to squeeze as much DPS as possible out of the lightning/storm concept. If you see something that could be optimized, tell me what you'd change and why!
