TL;DR: Any opinions on Blasphemy warlord's mark?

I made a Pledge+kaoms DP zerker and although I can do most bosses fine such as guardians and anything lesser, my Shaper attempt was meh. Lightning warp sucks, Flame Dash sucks and will suck until it functions similarly to Whirling Blades. I died 3 times to Shaper teleport because lightning warp is too slow.

Anyway, I thought I'd refactor into your build because Whirling Blades is all kinds of sexy. Problem is, I am not able to get over 40k average hit on Shaper [at least on PoB] and with 7000 health, I'd need 42k average hit to sustain on single target without killing myself. So I was thinking instead of Temp Chains or Enfeeble, I'd run Blasphemy + Warlords mark and see if things change.

I havent needed warlords mark in some time. It shouldn't be too hard to maintain against shaper with even a few wither stacks up. Maybe send me your pob and ill have a look, maybe have some suggestions. With that said, if you prefer warlord's mark it can work.


This is my current character: https://pastebin.com/kyzDzhVM

As you can see, really low damage especially on Shaper. Actually the damage isn't really the issue. The issue is not being able to outleech DP cost.

And this is the PoB link after messing around and looking at how things would be after I converted to your build: https://pastebin.com/jAMG6nBY

Jewels are average but I've been doing OK.
Hey man, first of all thanks for the build!
This is my actual build on lvl 69

My average DP tooltip is stucked at 24k without arcane surge and 35k with.
I can't see what could give me much more damage if it's not a 6th link(which i can't afford for now) and i have yet to find some good chaos rolled rings but still.. I don't think the conc effect boosts my damage so much.. How do you reah 600k damage as mentionned on previous post ?
But i'm still feeling pretty strong while mapping, is DP tooltip bugged or something ?

Hey, just had a look at your pob. I would start by removing trickery and replacing it with nullification. I would also thing about replacing alot of the cast speed on your gear with spell damage and chaos damage. You are missing up to 80% spell damage on your shield alone. Cast speed can be really good but it doesn't help you leech at all.
I would replace some of those flasks, you could use a sulphur for increased damage or doedre's elixer to proc Cloaked in Savagery. If you are still having trouble you could drop a bit of life for the templar spell damage nodes but I don't think you will have to.
Your gems are almost level 20 as well, which will be a big bump in dmg. Hopefully you can get a lvl 21 dark pact as well.

Hey, thanks for your interest. The tooltip doesn't show the added damage from life. DP scales very well with gem levels and yours is currently 16. Once its 20 or 21 you will be doing quite a lot more.
Conc effect is a large increase over added chaos dmg, maybe give it another try.
There is still plenty of scaling to be done with levels and gear on your character. Even mine has a lot of room to grow. I'm still using the same gear as when I was leveling and haven't felt much of a need to min max.
Thanks a lot for your quick answer ! I'll keep running and hopefuly get my hands on a 6L !
Your build is very and is one of my favourites. Thanks man!
What about the "Apep´s Rage" Wand ?
30% cast speed ist a huge boost :)

literally says in the first page of the guide "Why not Apep or Pledge?"
Hey besides leveling gems was wondering if you could take a look at my build and tree and tell me what i can fix. My end goal is shaper. Clearing mobs into t16 is nothing only guardians are hard for me to kill atm.

Can you explain how the guardians are hard for you? You are looking like you are on the right track. If you can afford some decent jewels they will be a a big help. Even a life + damage jewel would be worth grabbing a jewel socket for.
Other than that, some chaos damage rings would be nice. If you can afford a DP enchant that would be good too. Once you hit lvl 20 dark pact I can't see shaper being too rough. Good news is it's cheaper than even to try.
Hope I was of some help, let me know if you have any other questions.
