Oh, then you're on a lower budget for now. I'd say look for a good Angelic/Archon Kite Shield with 300+ ES.

Aegis is a really powerful shield, in fact that powerful that many people cry for a nerf. Usually people stack tons of armour and use Iron Reflexes to get 20k+ Armour and max their block chance, which in combination with top tier gear and Aegis makes others believe these builds are immortal, but that's complete bs. There are many unblockable damage sources in this game, and i'm sure GGG will add more with 1.1.

However, i like challenges, and so i didn't go the easy way. This build is far from the typical Aegis build, yet the shield is needed to run some parts of the game (No Regen maps) at all.

Mana Geyser is a good choice, i'm using it too.

14 ex is low budget ?!
I'm a realtiv new player and wanted to make this build after the patch so i can put my passives new.
Is this build to expensive for new player?

Hi there, did you mean you have 14ex budget? If so, you can already get very far with that amount.

The most expensive required piece of gear is Dream Fragments, currently going for 3ex. A good 5l will cost another 3-5 ex, a decent Kite Shield also around 3ex. This will already make you set for higher level maps.

Aegis Aurora is a luxury and very costly, but not needed. With a good Kite Shield with high ES you can reach higher total ES, and additionally to that comes higher ES regen/s.
I'll have a look into the new Aegis after 1.1, it should also work with this build and might be cheap to get.

All in all, i wouldn't call this build cheap (CI is never cheap) but affordable and very rewarding.

PS: It could take a while after 1.1 for me to post new trees, got two builds to update.

no i mean 14 ex is too much for me :D
do you think http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/669946/page/1 would be a cheaper variant?

Could be cheaper in the beginning, but once you go for Kaom's and a good 6L Staff (very rare) it will be alot more expensive than this build.

If you are on a very low budget and want to run my build, i'd recommend focus on getting a good base chest with 400+ ES and without links (4/5l it yourself with fusings you find while leveling), a decent shield with 200+ ES and all the cheaper MF uniques, and run piety to accumulate wealth and slowly progress towards better gear.

It's atleast how i did it, i started with maybe 10ex budget left and have farmed more than 200ex since december with this build (and the prior Storm Call version).

Hey again, here is my Progress so far:
im Level 62 atm and here is the stuff im wearing




i also have 26ex budged now to spend after selling few things and farming ledge.
What Upgrades should i look for now? Better Chest for sure i think. I also Need some Andvarius Rings.

Keep in mind that i want to run low life MF and do piety runs.
Aegis Aurora is very expensive now that i cant afford one so should i use a LL gem with Ghost Reaver instead?

I think i could be able to add another Aura since i do low life dont i?

Gear looks solid, but for LL MF you should switch to Wondertrap boots.
Definitely a better chest first, then look for a shield with 300+ ES and last but not least a better helmet.

Keep in mind more ES = more ES regen/s, so once you found some upgrades you might not need Life Leech. But 1.1 might be a huge game changer for this build, i'll try to corrupt a few Stone of Lazhwars and see if they can get Life/Mana leech.

yea i was going to wear Wondertrap ofc, forgot to mention.
So i Need: good AR/ES chest, 300+ ES shield.

to the shield:


i got this one in my stash so i could use this for now i think.

Yeah that shield is actually really good due to the spellblock and spell dmg.
If you can keep your resistances up, it will be a good choice for farming piety as her most hurting skills are spells.
