Alright last question, are you sure you want to run Indigon, or would you be open to running Vertex for awhile?


as long as i can still do a lot of damage and survive i dont mind.


May I ask why you're using 3x quick silver flasks? Assuming you're running Poorjoy's, there are better ways of keeping your speed up and also not dying to stuff.


yeah it was poorjoys although i am not dying inside poorjoys its just solo in mid tier maps i get owned by red beasts and some exiles + bosses
I'm positive this is a stupid question, but why are there 4 different variations of the Poet's Pen under the gear/gem section? Which are the two I ought to use?

You swap ball lightning in durring boss fights for dps. Sometimes swapping during the fight if you need lighting warp. Lightning warp is better for speed/mapping.
Thanks for this build, leveling it up in betrayal now. Costly but fun.
In the 3.5 POB, the gem links in gloves are arctic armor, wrath, herald of thunder, blind. Do we not need enlighten here? I saw from the previous posts that you can't run arctic armor with aspect of spider without helm enchants, but even taking that out, running wrath + herald of thunder + aspect of spider leaves me with very low mana, like 7%. I run out of mana quickly if I lightning warp anywhere without mobs to hit and leech from

Okay so I tinkered with your build a bit, I added a couple jewels, the ones I added should be pretty clear ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).

I believe you are missing some passive points, so I would look into that if I were you. I tried to setup your tree with the number of passive points you should have available to you. That said you may have taken Alira, but if you grab jewels similar to what I added (I believe I had seen some posted between 2-45c with rolls similar to what I had posted) you should be fine to swap.

I changed your gem setup to reflect swapping to Vertex, keep in mind rolling the off colours can kind of suck, but because it is only defensive and QoL gems in the setup, you have some wiggle room.

The flasks are just suggestions based off of what I like to use most of the time, I noticed you have nothing for bleeds so I imagine those have been pretty painful for you.

Your attack speed was too fast and your Frenzy/ Culling Strike were WAY too high level. You should read those gems before wasting the currency on 21/20's. I changed the levels and quality of the gems in your Frenzy setup a bit, if you want to improve your character follow those levels and quality, it is to fix your APS.

You are fine to not run Malediction yet as you do not have a second curse, but just keep in mind it also buffs your curses and does add a bit of damage. Though it is less damage added than Forbidden Power with your current setup.

Indigon

If you decide you want to go with Indigon the tree setup changes pretty dramatically... you also need to understand how Indigon functions to really get anything useful out of it. If you decide to make the switch then check the OP and see what is mentioned there. If you still have questions about it afterwards feel free to ask! I should also mention, you will want to level to around 95 before making the swap to Indigon, the tree demands to make it work are pretty high so the more passives you have to play with the better.

P.S. A quick note on your mana pool, I currently run with 99 mana and have no issues, but if you're uncomfortable with 85 you can either switch off an aura or mess with your tree a bit more.

Thanks a lot for all the information i will take a look at the POB now.
someone from germany here who plays this build and could help me to understand this build more ? never played such a build
IGN: Lnvoker
Anyone able to help me figure out what should be on my buying list? I know the priority is PP. But given the amount of currency I have. Would it be a good buy to buy Shavs armor or a ring with warlord's mark on it? Having issues surviving in maps fighting masters, constantly getting clapped by them.

Thanks in advance!

I've not had much time to grind this league, so my finances ahve been super slow. The order I went in was: Shavs/vertex/sin trek, 5 link, 1 pen, buy an elder ring and craft an interim Warlord's Mark ring (to sell later when I craft a better one and have found the spider). Grabbing placeholder jewels during this to patch up resists/stats. After that go straight for a second Pen.

Second pen and gem levels is all you need to crush red maps, you don't need Ball lightning until guardians and lightning warp is one of the strongest defences in the game :D

After that I'd go : Presence, 2 more pens (both at once preferably), spider aura+boots and/or Watcher's Eye, maybe look at jewels, maybe look to buy a 21/20 vaal arc (or make your own). Build is so strong at mapping without any of this stuff though, there's no hurry to min max (and it's nice to have the weapon switch free to level gems in to start anyway).

a build that costs roughly 20 ex to make, terrible survivability even with 90% of the recommended items equipped, clear speed sucks ass, boss damage would be decent if you didn't get 1shot by every boss that has any damage mods rolled on a map, 7k es my ass, can't even run a MoM hybrid LOL, 20ex build

10chaos arc trappers shit on this build in comparison
