I feel like i've been scammed real hard.
I bought stuff following the PoB with no resistances thinking the LL would keep me alive and because the PoB has all minus resistances to make it work best with wise oak.
Only now i figured it was just a way to inflate the DPS potential when in fact the PoB items style gives 0 survivability
Very disappointed, and now I have a bunch of crap I need to sell back, probably with lots of currency lost.
Furthermore, this is by no means a budget build. If you use Kaom's roots, lyco shield and helmet suggested, you get 0 resistances from any of these 3 items and need to max all your res with only the gloves, rings and amu and belt, and on top of that all these need to have good damage + life mods.
Needless to say this is crazy expensive...

Hi, I have a question about flasks.

So I managed to find Taste of Hate in the new flashback league, and my resists are all balanced at 83% so I get full Wise Oak benefits. I'm assuming that using Taste of Hate with Wise Oak makes it unbalanced because of the +50% to cold res, BUT if you hit Wise Oak flask button before the Taste of Hate flask button does Wise Oak read that your resists are balanced and give you the full effect, or will the effect get nullified as soon as you hit Taste of Hate after Wise Oak while Wise Oak is still on? Hopefully that makes sense.


Either way, would you recommend dropping Wise Oak for Taste of Hate because I wanna upgrade my rings and I probably won't be able to keep my resists balanced. Is that enough damage reduction to compensate the more damage taken from Berserker ascendancy like Wise Oak does?

Thank you for the guide. I'm thoroughly enjoying this build. I have a slight problem however.

The tree section under "Leveling Guide and trees," has disappeared!

I can still follow it via the offline pather and leveling guide... but it was a lot easier with that section. What happened to it???

Hey man!

Wow! The updated build looks great. Thanks for updating it.
I've been following your build for a couple leagues now (since Harbinger) and I am finally going to make it my league starter.

My question is do you find the "shock" mechanic worth it? In PoB, it adds a ton of DPS. However, if we swap out Elemental Focus, we could add that DPS as guaranteed for every hit. Do you find that shock works relatively well and predictably on bosses? Is shock/ailments really better than Elemental Focus?
