Hey so I'm on a pretty tight budget atm, I made the dumb(?) decision to use this as my league starter into Delve and have been struggling for a bit. I finally managed to get some decent currency and I have the 4 poet pens necessary, I can't afford the watcher's eye nor the elder ring with the warlord mark level 8 on hit yet.

I am currently using a tabula rasa until I get can a Shavronne wrappings, and so far I have frenzy, GMP, faster attack support, and culling strike into it. I decided to add curse on hit support and the warlords mark as well to it, you think that would work fine in the long run? It seems to be doing good for now. You can also just check out my character to make it easier to see what I have etc.

On a side note if you do check out my character, I spec'd into deep thoughts temporarily for mana, I'll switch that later on.

Your chars aren't public so we can't see them. But, what you've done sounds good. With only the Pens and the Tabula you should be able to get into red maps. It takes time to acquire all the gear and using a Tabula is a good alternative.

Thanks for the reply, also I think I just made my characters public, not sure.

Also real quick, what are your thoughts on running lightning golem instead?

Would you mind showing us your character that you killed uber elder on without the spider aura gear? I'm curious to see your characters setup, would really help out a lot!

Is there any way to get Spider Aspect in Delve without using the gloves? It seems like a pretty big hit to sustain.

I would go for Vile Bastion before you go for Forbidden Power in your Ascendency. The reasons for that are mentioned in the OP. That should help you out majorly with surviving in maps.

Your Curse-on-Hit setup with Warlords Mark in a Tabula isn't a bad idea! The other links are perfectly fine - dont forget to add quality to culling strike, faster attacks and GMP - each point of quality also increases your attackspeed. Usually you even need to leave one gem without quality since you will propably get to fast for Pet's Pen's to work correctly.

PP can only trigger a spell every 250ms - so 4 times a second. If you attack faster then 4 Times a second they bug out. In addition to that there is also you own lag - your latency that plays a role. If you have 20ms lag/delay you need to take that into consideration.

As a rule of thumb I would say aim for roughly ~3.70 attacks per second (while buffed with frenzy charges). Don't go faster then that. A Lightning Golem is not needed.

Get the Ring with Warlords-Mark-on-Hit before you get a Shavs. And I feel like people only want to try to buy those rings - when it is so easy to craft one yourself. Buy the cheapest Ring with an Elder base you can find - only make sure its itemlevel is around ~80 (mine is 78). (4-5 chaos currently in Delve)
Scoure it clean and spam alteration orbs on it till you get the Warlords Mark on Hit. It might take a couple hundred Alteration orbs but thats still way cheaper then buying such a ring for a couple exalted. Use an Augmentation/Regal Orb on it and call it a day. Add an entchant if your Master have some.
Warlords Mark on Hit will also solve all your ManaIssues.

Other than that I would encourage you to get some better ES gear going. ^^ Energy Shield is out equivalent to HP.

I don't know! I dont play delve. My guess would be there isn't. I recon if you want the boots to sustain, you ought to also grab the gloves I think. But I might be wrong here. Time will tell when people find out more about the stuff in the mines.

I am not sure its worth it? Something to test at least.

Since we are also leeching having a higher ES pool also increases our sustain. Going for SinTreks instead of the SpiderBoots isn't that big a hit to sustain (though it is!) as one might think at first. The Watchers Eye does most of the Work in that regard.

Good questions though! :)

I think this is the PoB for where that character was at the time:

Edit: I think this is the right one now...again.

Oops. Fixed now. Thanks for pointing that out.

@YT_HB You didn't use an ES leech Watcher's Eye? How did that end up working out?
