Stormweaver or infernalist?

[Rhanos]

I play both of them to lv27 and quite enjoy both but it seem they is expensive to build so which one is good in endgame?I have so many game I want to play right now so I can't farm for both of them.

Stormweaver is THE Meta build atm. Many friends and guild mates are just playing Stormweaver. but Infernalist is very fun and cool new class. Also what i am running atm. but still only level 75 Infernalist Minions build - its very chill , only 12 deaths so far and i am in endgame maps Tier 5... xDD

Choose one that you find most fun? but yeah, StormWeaver is pretty good.

Thank for your opinion I'll stick with stormweaver then.I like both of them because I don't need to do anything much just spam spark or fire wall on infernalist.

I happen to have both and I destroy the game, my witch is frost mage build but I started with arsonists, and storm weaver is spark.

A lot I'm going to say here is more about the late endgame so you might not understand it all if you're new to the game, but let's go over some things anyway.

You mention that they're expensive and yes the best gear is, but I think infernalist can be quite budget friendly to get started, while the storm weaver gear can be a bit more expensive because it wasn't until I got 4k mana and at least 26k spark dps that the build started feeling good, still the gear can be obtained for less than 1 divine per piece for both classes to get to a level that is possible to clear all content easily.

If I were to rank ease to play, until I can get my storm weaver to ridiculous high levels of energy shield and mana, I think infernalist is way easier, way more tanky because the way the hound absorbs damage taken passively, easy to reach 8k shield and nearly 2k reserved life, and you have 10+ bodies soaking damage and projectiles,

Also infernalist damage on bosses is quite a bit higher at least on my build, so I can stun them faster and often skip all their mechanics, but the storm weaver damage can be higher at the high end of gear that I haven't reached yet, my spark is about 41k tooltip dps and I'm at 4.5k mana, if I doubled my spark and had 6k mana, it would surpass the infernalist.

Stormweaver build is super boring but the most braindead. You just spam spark and on boss you put down flame wall, sigil of power, orb of lightning and the boss will melt by itself by your spark, if it didnt your lightning conduit will.

Infernalist has far more variety in term of build. There is a few of them and all of them is pinnacle and breach grind viable. Not as braindead but definitely less boring.

Infernalist if you actually want to play the game. Stormweaver is way too overpowered and makes all content way too easy and game too boring.

They are the 2 classes I have played. I enjoy both (in SSF). Managed to create a good build on the Stormweaver pretty easy, that didn't rely on me having to get + spell skills on weapon slots, amulets, etc. Just basic mana stacking, and using impending doom with cursed ground and cascade. Also went with a scepter to be able to use more auras and such. Fun, pretty good, pretty survivable.
