Depends on what you want to do. If you wanna burst people down use scepter/dagger with 30 in air for fresh air. In group fights i really enjoy running +100% freeze duration with glyph of elemental power. That with d/d can shut down groups. You can also run high kamikaze burst builds such as 0 20 20 0 30 with arcane shield, arcane blast and hoelbrak runes.

What weaponset do you want to use:

Staff:
Go bunker with 0/0/20/20/30 with something like this:

S/D:
Go full-burst with something like this:

S/F:
This is also a pretty high burst-spec, although you can go bunker after Oct. 15 when invulns still give you presence on the point:

10/15 Bunker (you might want melandru runes instead, need to test):

D/D:
Use cmc’s spec, which is meant for applying pressure in team-fights and isn’t very good 1on1. This isn’t really a kamikaze burst build but more a sustained damage (lightning whip) build with some good fire-burst:

You can do the classic D/D bunker, but you will be useless to your team.

For D/F, after the 10/15 patch you might be able to use something similar to the above s/f build. I would try out glyph of elemental power here as d/d can hit a lot of people, and spreading weakness/chills in group fights can be very good.

I would also look into taking superior rune of the flock as blinds are pretty good against a lot classes nowadays.

There are some ways to vary these specs, but these will at least give you a competitive build before you start customizing yourself.
