[3.5] Occultist Vortex/Cold Snap ES/CI - Deathless and Safe Uber Elder and T16's
|
Just wondering any particular reason why you don't take frost walker for this build? It seems to me like it would be a no brainier choice as several +15% damage minion nodes are taken and frost walker + the node leading up to it combine to equal 15% each plus an upside in cold resist. Thanks!

Flame me! Here is what I've done with the build so far. I've done many deathless uber elders and shapers already with this exact setup. I know the ES is kinda low at 131.3k but I went for a little more damage instead. I also have a special surprise in my jewel sockets :)

Been hugely enjoying this build. Currently sitting at 11.2K ES with a few nodes left to grab, and around 400K DPS in PoB. Nothing really poses a challenge, and I sleeper'd Hydra last night. Have had terrible map RNG this league, so Hydra is the only guardian I've gotten.
My gear currently is: My friend got the spider beast last night, so I'm planning on getting the recipe from him, crafting that onto a better ring or amulet, and then replacing the belt with Bated Breath, since I'm res capped and that would give me another ~700 ES. Still working on fossil crafting a helmet and weapon, and then getting a higher ES chest. Rings in general could use some work. Working with about a 9EX budget atm. Not entirely sure why I kept leveling up Phase Run, so probably gonna get a lower level one later to reduce my dex requirement. Also going to experiment later with Soul Catcher for Vaal Cold Snap, to see if I can get the build to clear maps a little faster. Last edited by Slithid#1009 on Jan 7, 2019, 8:22:05 AM

Alright, time for an update from me - didn't change anything since last time, but killed Uelder deathless today, was my first deathless run and 5th kill total. Super smooth build, i think i died once since i specced into this character - insane how good this build is.

I've got a question:
When im using enfeeble, Discpline and the spider aspect as active aura with enlighten lvl2 i only got 80 mana left. thats only enough for 1 vortex. is this normal? how can i get more mana? Last edited by Kindareagle#1786 on Jan 7, 2019, 12:14:54 PM

Hit maps like an hour ago, and just finished uber lab at level 72 with this trash gear:
Spoiler
Had like, 1.5k hp and 4.5k es at the time. Aswell as 47-ish k tooltip dps. And I mean, Izaro literally just melted away.. Extremely easy :P Thinking about trying out the vaal cold snap variety with Solstice vigil and soul ripper, but unsure how to maintain VCS through maps. I mean, do you just kill a few mobs for charges etc, pop soul ripper, pop VCS and run? Do you need both soul ripper and soul catcher? And you just alternate between them or something? I wanna run vcs in maps, and use vortex as my single target :) Last edited by Erayo#1284 on Jan 7, 2019, 1:37:04 PM

Here is my progress in SSF HC Betrayal btw, lvl 91
How is Mastermind for this build? Just unlocked it but I've heard bad things (rippy/buggy) so holding off for now. Need to craft a better weapon but out of fossils. Need better boots but the temple spell dodge is so hard to beat. Need better belt but just alt regaled a usable one for now since I just found the base. But otherwise, cruising through T11 no problems! |
