[3.2] HoWAbout Occultist. Shaper/Uber Elder, Minotaur flaskless on 1L!!

umm so i just made this.

Very sexy, altought I'd probably end up crafting Int instead. On the other hand with super high resistances you can easily drop Purity + Herald for Wrath, which is still a good dps boost.
Gz!

Currently playing this build on hardcore and it's working perfectly.
What changes would you recommend for HC? and what shield would be BiS for us?

Thanks

maybe this?

Hello, i want to try this build, but, there's only 1 thing i dont see in the guide, what maps mods you need to avoid?

Hello,

First of all thanks for the guide the build seems lot of fun !

ATM I play a MF character but I want to make a boss killer to unlock my 5 sextans (and maybe go for Uber Elder later).

My league starter was Elementalist so I already have a high lvl Witch, and also, I happen to own a 600ES Atziri's Splendor, can I use that instead of an expensive rare ES chest ?

cya :)

Yep, best shield would be Atziri's upgraded shield. Unaffected by curses is great, high Evasion+ES is amazing, it's got beefy resists, and good Int roll. The cost is out of this world, sadly.
If you cannot get a shield like that, I'd go with a simple high ES rare with usual stats (resists, Int, %lightning damage).

As a non-HC player there isn't much I can honestly recommend. Maybe another defensive flask apart from Jade, making sure you got high roll on %Blind from Abyss jewel, and prioritising ES over dps on the tree.
Some small changes to the tree to improve ES pool would be pathing through Strength nodes to Catalyse instead of %elemental damage nodes, and instead of taking jewel socket near Harrier, you can socket another Fertile Mind just underneath Ghost Reaver.

You definitely can :) For the price of 6L Splendour you could afford a nice rare with Int, but I understand if you don't want to do that - selling items takes time, then you have to be lucky/patient to buy rare Regalia for a decent price etc.

Elemental reflect, that's about it. Depending on your gear, you might need to avoid "60% less recovery rate of life/mana/ES" when doing T16, no regen is fine as long as you don't burn all your mana using Whirling Blades.
I don't know if maps can still roll Blood Magic, haven't seen it in ages. No leech is also a no go on higher tiers but can be done thanks to recharge/Vile Bastion, just don't use Blood Rage and take things slower.

Well other than helm here's my mid-range budget build:

weapons 70c, chest 2ex, rings 1.2ex, gloves 1.5ex, belt free, boots 30c, ammy 80c, watcher's eye 2ex, helm 1 slam, flasks free. so under 10ex. right now at lvl 83, guardians, shaper and elder guardians down pretty easy for the most part. working on getting more dps before attempting uber elder.

Looking nice :) a few more levels to take some nodes you've missed (like 30 Int node by Point Blank), maybe quality on gems and you should be able to take on Uber Elder :)

Hi. I just wanted to say thank you for the build. Easily my strongest char on a decent budget and also very easy to play.
