I found a build a while ago that I'm using at the moment, and yes, it is for fire farms, but even though I'm almost done slotting all of it, the build doesn't seem that great. So I decided to go through it and change some things up to see if it could get better.
This is the original build:

I do realize that the modified build does cost more, but unless there is something I may have messed up which is pretty possible, it seems that I could perma-hasten and perma-veng which would do way better than the original build. Any thoughts on if something is messed up or how to make it better?

It looks like a great combination of DPS and survivability. There are two things I see that could be improved though.

I would probably try to squeeze a Gladiator's proc in there to get closer to 32.5%. You could sacrifice 4 mag of your knockback protection in Temperature Protection to do it. You would still have 8 mag of KB protection left, which should be fine.

That Miracle regeneration proc in Healing Flames doesn't look good. If you use Healing Flames every time it is up, you regenerate 26.97 HPs from the proc, and heal a total of 873.58 HPs. Replacing that with a heal IO gets you 143.88 more HPs. Make it a Numina's and you get even more max hit points.
