Legion Sword vs Breath of council? Which to pick?

Heya, new PoE player here, i'm running this build, and having a lot of fun with it, i'm wondering what gems do you prioritize to quality up first?

I think all the gems linked to dark pact have the same impact per gcp(.5% inc dmg). Dark Pact itself gives you increased aoe, which can be helpful. I personally put 20% quality on DP first and tried 21/20 right away, but it took me a few gems. Faster Attacks/Casting and Immortal Call make for good 20% GCP vendor recipes.

The more I play the more I prefer the legion sword.

I'm playing on HC League, have 7200+ dps on DP and 3700 life with 61 lvl, finished 1 lab and got a Pain Reaver. I need to complete Cruel lab, then get a Cloacked in Savagery for sustain on single target. But how can i kill Izaro when i don't sustain on single target? Can you say what I miss? Check my buid. Thanks for the answer.

I looked at your profile and it looks like you have switched to sunder from someone elses suggestion. That can work, but I can't see your previous gear and can only guess at why you couldn't sustain. I went War Bringer as my first ascendancy and had no issues with labs. Try reading the faq on improving sustain on single target.

My problem was solved. Following some advices I finished Cruel lab with Sunder on 62 lvl and got Cloacked in Savagery. Now single target sustain is so easy. All thanks for the help.

for the jewels part, is Increase Area damage equivalent to increase spell dmg?

The build is nice, but dear lord its hard to sustain leech on DP, swapped around lvl52 when i got access to VP, but even with warlords mark, i am not able to sustain single target very well, my life pool is 4400 hp currently, and dps like 4k or so, i just hit 62, and the storm cascade does tons of damage, so at least gives me a alternative damage source on bosses.

On the Sun and Moon bosses i died several times due to the inability to sustain and them not hitting hard enough in 1 hit to trigger the leech bonus :(

Yes, pretty much.

Sustaining on bosses that don't trigger Cloaked in Savagery is the hardest part for dark pact. I recommend War Bringer until you can get rid of it after uber lab. You can also try and get more spell damage or chaos damage on your rings and amulets.

It seems like that 6link carcass jacket have higher dps than the 6 link 4b1r1g Cherrubim's Maleficence.
Should I use the carcass jacket or the Cherrubim's Maleficence?
I'm really confused right now, looking forward your answer:D gl

BTW, I'm using lv3 empower instead of the lv19q20 added chaos damage.

Just wanted to say thank you for this build, it's the most fun I had in PoE in a long while. Just for measure, this is my third Harbinger character and I did a T15 Overgrown Ruin Map at lvl 78 and it was a breeze. I haven't even gotten Aspect of Carnage yet, I can imagine it will make the playstyle even smoother. Thank you for sharing this build!
