The Uber Amulet

Do this when you have 40 div and are willing to spend it to add the 3rd mod "19% Increased Attributes".

1. You have a 1-mod Magic Simplex amulet with the %Int mod. Imprint it (Craicic Chimeral). This is not required but it's good to ensure that you don't lose such an expensive base if you mis-click on the Awakener combine. You'll be buying a lot of Craicic Chimerals anyway.

2. Prepare the donor bases. They must be ilvl 80+ Shaper amulets. You will need the following 6 amulets:
1) "6-9% Increased Attributes" and no other Shaper mod (magic or rare);
2) "1% Increased Damage per 15 Intelligence" and no other Shaper mod (magic or rare);
3) "6-9% Increased Attributes" + another Shaper mod from List A below;
4) "6-9% Increased Attributes" + another Shaper mod from List B below;
5) "1% Increased Damage per 15 Intelligence" + another Shaper mod from List A below;
6) "1% Increased Damage per 15 Intelligence" + another Shaper mod from List b below.

List A

Question: Why do we need these six shaper influenced amulets with each exact specific mods? don't we need as many shaper amulets as we can have with one % increased attributes mod to sacrifice with one awakener orb?

The way it Awakener's Orb works is
If amulet from list A takes dmg/15int as the stat transferred to orbed amulet then:
1) every amulet from list A chooses dmg/15int as inherited stat.
2) every amulet from list B chooses not dmg/15int as inherited stat.
3) every amulet from list A "randomizes" the third stat added to the amulet (in addition to dmg/15int and %int) to be exact same stat.

So if "Dmg per 15 Int + Lv 22 Discipline" Orbed with %int Simplex would produce lets say one with "dmg/15int, %int and +22str", every other amulet from list A (that has dmg/15int as the wanted stat) will roll that same "dmg/15int, %int and +22str" as result.

So you only need one such amulet, rest will just produce duplicate results.

And those lists are not complete. if you get any combination of %attributes or dmg/15int with another shaper mod, it will belong to ether list A or B. Those listed are just what we have happened to roll so we know which list they belong to.

I'm trying to understand why the Enlighten gem into the helm of endgame.

I have the Sovereignty tree maxed out and I'm having no issue mana wise with Clarity/Zealotry/PoE. Just trying to understand as I'm sure there's a reasoning I've missed somewhere.

Thanks!

With Enlighten you can add Aspect of the Spider.

Thanks so much! I've never added spider aspect to a build before. I didn't realize it worked like an aura/mana reservation! :)

I've been running this in Sanctum with moderate success. However, I'd love to figure out how I can ramp up the damage even further, even if it means sacrificing ES and/or Evasion. I could tolerate significant decreases to my defenses.

So far, I've made the changes below. These have resulted in a respectable damage increase, but if there's anything I could do to increase damage exponentially (again, even if it means sacrificing defenses--defenses are kind of meaningless in Sanctum), I'm all ears! I'd also welcome critiques of the changes I've made so far or alternative suggestions; I'm really just experimenting here.

I was even wondering if maybe there's a Mines version of Icestorm? I've been opting for manual-cast mode in Sanctum anyway.

- Ascendancy: Changed Heartstopper to One Step Ahead. I might change this to Swift Killer in the future, but for now, it's kind of nice to lower Sanctum enemies' Action Speed and to get a little boost myself?
- Enchants: Changed Enchant on Gloves and Helm from ES to Damage and +1 to AoE Gems/AoE respectively.

Feel free to inspect my profile directly if you're wondering something specific. It should be public.

Thanks for the explanation, I ended up having 8 shaper amulets (I bought probably 3 of them off the market) and crafted the rest that costed more than 1500 alts, and a few dozen exalts.

So.. I hit it after probably 6-7 tries, the hardest part was to get perfect roll with divs..

EDIT: Got maxed out rolls after two dozens of divs wasted IIRC, so I can join the cool kids club now.



I don't think "Grants Level 22 Clarity Skill" & "6% Increased Attributes" is on either list so you might want to add that, because that's what it gave me the trifecta.

I got so lucky this league, started 2 weeks ago.

dropped Awakened Multistrike

and crafted these with not that many tries.






5th league I played this build and nothing comes close, so much fun.

where does ailment immunity come from cant seem to find it
