Good to hear you're enjoying the build. To answer your questions -

1. Keep using 5L rare chest until you can 5L or 6L your Vis Mortis. 5L is simply better damage than any kind of 4L. Once you finish campaign, don't forget those Prophecies for a chance at free 5L/6L.

2. For your mana problems, please read what I have suggested in previous posts. Once you try those solutions, you should be able to run Clarity and Hatred (which is better damage than Haste).

2.a). Yes, get "Spirit Eater" node before "Commander of Darkness".
Whether you decide to run 1 or 2 auras, it's still the better option. More minion damage and synergizes well with "Mistress of Sacrifice".

2.b). Yes, "Commander of Darkness" before "Beacon of Corruption". It's more beneficial in 2.3.

Good luck!

Thank you for taking some time to answer my questions. you are the man. GL and SS.

Hey thanks for the build, it's really awesome.

Question: Have you thought about adding a curse to this build?

I'm using Punishment now, self cast, and it's pretty good. Granted I haven't switched to two auras or Vis Mortis or even a 5link for SRS. Would Punishment do noticeable difference in the late game?

^ This build does use a curse as mentioned on guide. It's Enfeeble with CWDT.

Never felt the need to try Punishment with SRS. I'm not SRS for this league, so not doing any more experiments with it. You can test it out and if you feel it makes a difference in clear speeds, then by all means keep using it.

You can switch to Enfeeble or Temporal Chains once you get your hands on 5L. As I have suggested in previous posts, 5L is easy to acquire if you purchase it as a white item.

Have fun.

Hi! Thanks for posting this build, I've been using it pretty successfully so far in Prophecy, currently level 78.

I'm working on 5 linking my Vis Mortis still so I've had an unlinked slot to play with for a bit, which gave me the idea of running a level 1 Clarity gem to proc Commander of Darkness a third time; all for only just 31 Life reserved with Mortal Conviction.


Would this be preferable to running Vaal Haste? Even if it's not, it's definitely a viable damage boost as long as you have a free blue socket somewhere.

Hello my man!

I wanted to thank you since Prophecy, I try your build and it s pretty awasome, I m having somuch fun playing it;

I actually in SC, lvl 90, it s my second char and I wantged to know if you can give me any advice on items change:

here my goodies:

Ty mate :)

Hi,

First of thx for the nice build.
But i do have some questions.
U say there is a lot of life regen in the tree by default.
i only count like 3x 1% node's the rest is + life.
Im at 83 life regen u have 500+ i dont understand how u get this high.
Im really clueless on how u obtained that cause its for sure not the skill tree.

That's actually a good idea to run level 1 Clarity for an additional damage boost, but keep the Vaal Haste. I would suggest removing Desecrate instead. There are enough corpses in the maps. Personally the only times I used Desecrate was during Izaro fights. For him, you can simply remove Vaal Haste and insert Desecrate because you lose all vaal souls on entering his arena anyway.

I'll edit the guide and include this idea. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Your items look good. The only suggestion I can make is "Grip of the Council" gloves. They were introduced in this 2.3 patch as a league exclusive item, so grab one while you can.

They are a nice damage boost, but there are a couple of negatives. First, the lack of resists. I know you'll lose out on your Lightning resist, so try to make up for it in other pieces. Perhaps a rare shield instead? Second, their movement speed reduction isn't good for SRS, but you can counter this by using Sidhebreath amulet.

As for loss of Dexterity from rare amulet, try to find Dexterity on boots and Jewels. But if you decide not to use "Grip of the Council" and Sidhebreath, then at least craft Catarina's prefix mod on gloves for Minion Dmg. Every little bit counts! :)

I'm not playing SRS in current leagues, but once our stuff gets transferred over to permanent leagues, I know I'll make changes to my setup and this guide. Definitely want Grip of the Council and a corrupted Sidhebreath with Minion Dmg implicit.

Besides this, read the idea I discussed with the guy above. You should run Clarity 1 for more damage gain from "Commander of Darkness".

You should check the link I included with PoE Planner. It's 5.6% life regen from skill tree. Use the search function on their website for life regen and you'll see where it's taken. Plus remember, the more Life you have, the more life regen you will automatically gain.

As for life regen shown on my screenshot, I have slightly over 400 from skill tree. Another 100 comes from Stone Golem in +2 Helm.

Unless I'm blind, I don't see a step-by-step guide to where to put your points on the passive tree. I'm VERY new to this game and don't really know where I should be heading first on the passive tree with this build. Any advice or links to some incomplete passive trees that show me how the points should go as I level?

I briefly talked about this under leveling guide section that I don't take any different paths for leveling. Basically you should be prioritizing life and minion nodes. Make your way to "Gravepact" node before going down to Blood Magic.

But I understand some people are completely new to the game, so I added passive trees for leveling under Passive Tree section. Have a look.

Also updated the guide in several other sections.
