1) essence worm ring gives +2 aura level, so 21 PoF will become 23 and therefore you don't need empower.
2) pyre converts all cold dmg to fire dmg, and actually the dot should be implied. and again: the generic cold dot of vortex is not the reason people use vortex. it's because SPELL DAMAGE is also applied on ignite for vortex. usually spell damage is no double dipper for ignite builds but for vortex it is.


2.2 and 2.3 i played LL RF chars always will leo shield, the regen is much worse than rotf shield because additional max fire res is GOLD. anyway it's an alternative, but below 15% regen (after RF burn) i would not switch to leo shield. for mapping it might be enough


few last words to vortex and my resume:
for vortex casting (with ignite chance gem) you dont need any cast speed. thats the cool thing about ignites, you want to deal one big hit and not many small hits. so you barely have to change something, only to compensate essence worm ring OR 2nd ring.
but my resume is i came up with so much modifications that it's indeed an entirely different build lol.

i will deviate to

+ astramentis and kaom's way. at the moment im sitting at almost 8k HP (so yes fairly less. and much lower armour than you) but will have around 6-7% extra life regen (tree a bit different).
will see how it goes ^^ cheers

I found a good shield and crafted reduce DoT with decent roll.

idk why i cant sustain RF with it without adding vitality aura+marble amulet.

weird indeed, tho that last few percent that you are missing from max roll is rather important

One thing to note is that if i have no endurance charges then i have about -25 regen per sec with the leo shield, would be plus 50-80 if i had a perfect rolled one. Since we are at full endurance charges constantly it shouldnt be an issue.

Edit,math: If i calculate it correctly, you should have 12.3% regen from tree and 81% fire resist without rotp. That means you are degening 17.1% from RF before the leo enchant and 14% after. Stone golem can almost bridge the gap between 12.3 and 14%, and if you are using a different one it may feel like you need vitality and a marble amulet to compensate. Endurance charges give another 4.9% regen, leaving us with 3.2% Extra life regeneration per sec, plus stone golem, plus if you have the boot enchant its another 2%, so roughly 6% regen if you use the leo shield.
It is normal to degen a little bit if you dont have any endurance charges, normally it doesnt affect the gameplay.

Im hitting break point without marble amulet now. dunno what happen last night..lol. Have you tried switching to SR? My Laptop Lag a bit when i use FB + FS, so i use SR instead.

Just hit level 90 on this build, it is extremely strong. There is one tweak I highly recommend, though: spend the 3 points on Unwavering Stance. I haven't died since I took it, it's extremely worth it. Not having flameblasts interrupted is essential not only for dealing damage but also for the life leech you get in tense situations. I mostly find it important for breaches, but that was pretty much the only content I ever died to before grabbing it, and now I just don't die at all. I'm not sure when I'd optimally pick it up, but I lean toward right before grabbing jewel slots.

Thanks for the awesome build, I've never had such an easy time on endgame content. Maps up to T15, 3 key uber Izaros, and Atziri are all completely trivial, looking forward to trying guardians.
