[3.8] Death’s Oath Occultist - Death Whisperer(CI) Updated regularly

Had an interesting thought. Vorici as the head of research let's you get 1-3 white sockets on an item at rank 3. If this lets you use uniques...
It should work on unique items, I'm currently at2g1b1r just working on my last 2 sockets but I'm out of jewellers
Since the missing socket recipes are available in standard, I do think we'll get them sooner or later.

Until then I'm playing this as well as I can, found that the damage is still good especially after I noticed I forgot to take the minion nodes.

At first I tried using a 4l Cane of Unravelling with Vaal Blight (which is awesome btw) and cwc Essence Drain (which really was awesome since you usually get the betrayal boss you target and blight away his adds) to do good damage where DO aura lacks it, but switching to breath of the council + a good ES shield really isnt far behind, altough you need to use the blight gloves for a 5l, so you lose out on the vaal gem.

Still considering The Dark Seer for the ~300 Es and occasional auto blind, it's almost as strong as botc and a great budget option.

I will try to switch back with a 6l (or even 5l) Cane if I can though - just need more ES on my rares, it's really what you lack with it.

What do you guys do in delves? Speed is awesome but I can't really explore side chambers since if the degen starts I'll never recover any ES until I drop a flare. I haven't tried Vaal Discipline yet, might help.

Really like the auto wither from ascendancy btw, it's such a great thing for this build.
Patch to fix socket crafts is coming tomorrow.
I'm still missing the fire trial for my auto wither. A sceptre shield combo is definitely nice for survival, I'm mostly using the cane for the multi on it until I get a nice shaper/elder staff. I think a of 27 vaal blight will be extremely powerful on bosses and I've never really had the chance to play with it because of the gloves being really great
Managed to nail one of my reds. Only getting 1 of the 3 kind of stinks. This will be the cheaper way of getting the right colors though, imo.

Looks good man, think we could do that craft multiple times and get them all white?
Not sure what happens if you try it again tbh. I will do it next time just to see, though
Well the regular socket crafts are back now so that should make it easy again
Just out of curiosity, how do you guys level this? As a classic ED build? And then respec when you can use death's oath?
