Hrm. I didn't even think about the fire skills not working. So I guess for this build, besides the things that are strictly +skills, you'll want to just go with facet socketed gear.

Make sure not to trade off too much +skills gear for a couple of extra open sockets, though. The high-end bonuses to +skills are pretty. It's worth testing on a skill calculator. Unfortunately, I'm leaving right about meow.

If anyone actually intends to make this build and doesn't know how (or someone else doesn't) do the skill/dmg comparison, I can get to it later. Just don't let the thread die, so I'll see it later on.

What is it they say about silence being golden?
