Soothsayer build

[keko4321]

the only magic worth upgrading to level 3 is rune magic(dps wise) ?
i do remember chaos were pretty good in AP , it's nerfed ? and 90% of the spells i'm finding is rune magic .
artifactor is any good ? i found few recipes but it doesn't show the items stats
and looks like i can destroy items to get materials to craft others ?
it's worth it to get persuasion in mind tree and max it ?
i'm a bit lost here so any suggestion please

Thanks
