Occultist Ascendancy

Start left and go right - Profane Bloom -> Void Beacon -> Wicked Ward -> Vile Bastion

Bandits | Kill | Kill | Kill

Link Priority Blight > Void Manipulation > Controlled Destruction > Increased Area of Effect > Rapid Decay > Empower ( If you don't want to use AoE you can use faster casting, I personally just pop in Conc for bosses )

Leveling Guide

I personally used firestorm with Elemental Focus & Faster Casting till around mid 30's. ( Around the time when you grab Witch & Templar AoE ) Once I had both of those I swapped to a 4 link setup

Blight - Controlled Destruction - Void Manipulation - Inc AoE ( Use conc for bosses )

For the skill tree portion I'd highly recommend grabbing the Energy Shield nodes early and start removing life as you get higher level. Energy shield has much better scaling for this build and a 500 ES chest is 1 Chaos so it's super easy to go hybrid till it's time to go CI.

I went CI After uber lab so I had extra Sustain, Dual curse is for my witchfire Flask ( It gives free vuln )

Hello, you think with this build you can kill shaper too? I am interested in a blight build.

To be honest I haven't really done shaper or any of the guardians before so it's all a learning process for me. I think the sustain of the build is fine it would probably just take a bit long due to how blight works

Looks good, I might try this one out.

How do you think blight fairs compared to ED? I really want to play some kind of occultist but cant decide.

Hi Pohx!!! How could u sustain your ES? Dont have any leech, warlords, Ghost Reaver etc. Just via ES recovery?

And could u link your chest and links on it plz??

Great build btw!!! Congrats and thx for sharing!

Added chest, sorry must of forgot it! as for the es sustain, I have 50% block with my rumi's up. Xirgils is 20% chance on block to start your Es recharge which works for wicked ward which regens my es for 4 seconds!

For bossing it's probably better to just go low life with 1h/shield because Xirgil's is mainly for like mapping or breach's because of the sheer amount of mobs

I've never played ED before, I know it's definitely more safe due to the off screening.

It's all good, Personally for mapping I'm quite happy with blight. The slow utility from it usually allows me to kill packs before it runs out
