Hmm so getting the +1 to curses or whispers of doom is pointless? It seems good and I have done higher tier maps and don't normally encounter immunity to curses.

I guess I'll wait and hold off the uber lab till I know for sure what I want. What about auras? What auras do you run? I run Dis, vitality, purity of ele because of low res, and 1 curse atm. Will change purity of ele to something else when I get the chance. I have a lvl 4 elight.

Maybe the Sin will help me, other than that, I still don't have a shield like yours, and my other ring does not provide energy shield. If you check my gear, don't know how to post it, there is one ring I want to remove a stat and add Increase ES %. there are 3 things I could remove, but knowing RNG I'll get unlucky.

My boots are okay, but yours would probably provide me another 200-600 ES give or take. My helmit I could get a higher tier one, the evasion and ES are about 46% off from perfect so that can play a big role. My current ES is 5.9k

BTW did you do uber lab? I was thinking of grabbing the +1 to curses and not the other ascend. That way it would help me save points and put more into ES.

What i mean is you should've use ur currency on the shield instead of boots since sin trek provides so much es atm its too good to pass up, your boots costed so much while mine costed 10c for a perfect es one,( it was not nerfed in 3.0) my shield only costed 2ex btw. ring can no longer get %es crafts, only amulet. faster start charge es is your best bet(from leo)
I have not done uber lab yet since i just reached 79 on occultist yesterday ( leveled a trickster variant prior to occultist) to be honest i think not taking second curse is ideal, since higher tier map bosses all have reduce curse effectiveness and its really easy to roll curse reduction or immunity mods on map, therefore i would prob modify the tree abit and take some hp regen nodes and es nodes if possible (go down to templar area and take combat stamina for over 10% es regen per sec or just take shadow starting nodes for chaos damage) and switching ascendancy is not recommended since vile bastion is always better than an additional curse.

tl:dr Dont invest too heavily into curses like using heretic's and stuff, it causes your damage to drop off heavily later on and will no be as useful as you might think.
oh and btw i noticed you has blasph socketed in ur heretics, you do know heretic already offer blasph right? that socket is wasted.
drop your granite flask and get a sulphur instead, armor is useless.

Hi.

FYI - Blasphemy in Heretics is normal - that one from helmet has 0% quality.

If You use curse setup - 20% quality is mandatory.

Are you going to post some videos doing the guardians and shaper eventually? And I was wondering if the idea of the build would be viable with Trickster

What about dark pact? Or is blight the better choice.

I also plan to use Determination though the strength requirement will come from my rings mainly. I feel it will be super nice having tons of Armour besides grace.

I think I'll use Blight since I am level 57 and closing in on the items. You said that the chest peice becomes off colored but what do you mean by 6 link? I have to make it 6 link then if I use a damage gem instead of a support gem?
