Have you tried to facetank the shaper beam with acuities to see the difference? Because the "facetanking" is garbage even with double ES/hit and warlord's, we get a hard degen and barely survive until he finishes it. On my POB acuities push the leech rate to 3000 instead of 1500 that could be more than decent.




Yes works great, shaper beam is no problem, but wasn't a big problem before too.

At some syndicate members (also in/around fortresses / t15+ / cor. 8+ mod maps) you can see the difference better, I remember situations were your energy shield was struggling around 60-80% while getting hit & face-leech.
Now with Acuity's I didn't had such situations anymore, as long you hit something your energy pop's full again.

In my opinion switching for Acuity's is worth the lose of 5%cc / 220 ES / 1200 avg. dmg (compaired to Voidbringer), I don't regret it.

But ofc it is up for everyones own preferences, also in thought that this is a pricy upgrade (~8-10++ Ex)

I've calculated your chance of survival, but I don't think you'll like it.

Finally was able to get Blood Magic Lv 20 and everything is working now. Can anybody help me out with the DPS part. I tried doing a t8 and even for some blue trash mobs I have to frenzy twice to kill and solo DPS is pretty low on bosses.

Was thinking about swapping herald of thunder/artic armour for blasphemy / enfeeble.

I did the POB Attack Ratio on my Frenzy and currently at 3.31. If I get 20Q on frenzy, FA and culling strukes + LV20 FA, Ill be @ 3.69

Would running GMP over Culling on chest mean anything?


Any recommendation and what I can change to be able to clear maps. Not being able to speed run with kinda hurtful :(


This s my POB

a quick one. you are running fenumus boots without spider aura so its useless and sin trek will do a better job.
GMP in setup is basically to make aiming brainless and accuracy is not 100%
It for sure looks like a solid option but you lose about 13% damage compared to a "Spells have +0.X crit strike chance" voidbringer corruption (Ele weakness corruption is garbage on this build). Losing 220 ES doesn't mean much if your leech is doubled indeed. I'd love to have a pair of acuities to try it myself.

I think I'm geared as I could be. I did T16 guardians, Shaper, and Red Elder deathless. I also beat Uber Elder but with 3 deaths after a failed attempt(first time ever fighting Uber Elder).

Here's the gear I beat Uber Elder with (warning: stupidly expensive. This level of gear was NOT needed. In particular, use a single 3 enlightens instead of two lvl 4 and drop arctic armour):



If you can balance it, Purity of Ice is superior to purity of elements. Obviously it makes Uber Elder easier (and if you had a cannot be frozen watcher's eye, the fight is 10x easier), but I found it nice for mapping too. Chimeria I think does cold damage which hurts, but with Purity of Ice it's much more manageable.

I decided to not run Fenumus' Spinnerets since you can get soooo much ES on boots this league with 28% quality syndicate mod and crafting quality on it. I find a straight-up like 500+ extra ES superior to the 1 extra web and a bit of extra ES gained.

I tried making Malachai's Artifice work, replacing Mark of the Shaper. The idea was to use either Armageddon Brand to proc EE, or put the ice golemn in there to proc. It felt too clunky and the extra damage with having EE on vs. having Mark of the Shaper was barely noticeable. And Mark of the Shaper has some ES which is nice. (Note: to make EE work you have to replace herald of thunder. I used purity of fire instead, since I had the extra 10% mana at the time).

I also tried going into Whispers of Doom for a 3rd curse, and using curse on hit + enfeeble in the frenzy setup (this was before syndicates were nerfed). It was OK I guess but really as long as you're somewhat mobile and not trying to facetank everything you don't really need enfeeble.

Overall, this is a fun build; I had a lot of fun playing it! Cost-wise for doing content, this is not the most cost-effective build nor is it the fastest (cold DOT casters seem to be as fast or faster for cheaper budget). But it's pretty fun. And if you put the Innocence Lightning Warp effect on, you look suuuuuper sick.

Thanks for the build, OP!


Why is your Phase run in your body only lvl 8. You selfcast it so it can be lvl20/20?


I don't have the dex to level it any higher than that. I have 111 or 112 dex or something only.

I'll swap culling for gmp for the extra dps. I'll try to find a pair of the corrupt gloves that fits the sockets I need and swap to sin trek till I get the spider aura. Do my gem set ups look alright, was recommended to maybe get enfeeble over artic or a ice golem set up.

oh yeah, thats is crazy, and for going dmg BiS like you said,
just bought a pair 0,8%spell.cc/139%inc.s.cc Voidbringers

thats now raw 10%cc / 2375 avg.dmg difference to Acuity's

so, let's say this gets a fight between dmg vs. survival *gg

On a 5 link i would just drop power charge on crit and go with Frenzy-FA-GMP-CoH-Conductivity/Enfeeble.

As someone said, since you don't have the spider aura in your ring, just run sin trek boots or some nice rare ES boots.

For your gloves, just pick some decent ones with that corruption and 4 link and good colors will be cheap. 5 vaal for 4 link and 4 vaal for "at least 1 green socket" per try.

Btw guys, i see a lot of people with either aspect of the spider and no fenumus boots, or fenumus boots and no craft aspect.

If you want to follow the guide and have proper ES regen, you should realy get both. Only having 1 of them will not do anything. Get both or nothing.

****
And please if you ask me question ingane, research a bit on PoB and on the forum, a lot of people are asking me questions about my variation, but it was only meant for deep delve 1K+. I was almost alone to do that shit, so don't follow me because it only work for delve since you can proc the regen from soul of arakali with the darkness degen in delves. It does not work for boss, and does not work for mapping.

If you read this, please Cyrix update your post and remove my name because too much people are "arrassing me"

Hey all !

I currently building for this build and I tried ton answer all of my question by reading post+ comment but I'm still missing some infos!

So if you could give a look on my char and point me in the right direction, That would be appreciated ! :)

First, I read that if I don't have 7k ES without Vile Bastion I should keep it, but how in hell am I suppose to go higher than that (currently at 6k with Chayula)

Next, If I understand, to be able to use wrath and Spider I absolutely need a mana enchant on my Vertex?

Finally, If you could just check my gear and point my in the right directions just lemme know !!

Thanks :)
I'll spend some time to answer you and comment your character :)

Your chest :
Spoiler

Power charge on crit gem is useless, please remove it !

Vertex = you don't need to stack mana cost on your frenzy, so you can use a 2 link frenzy with only faster attack. Having more gems is purely a bonus and will not realy help (culling strick on boss eventualy) or gmp if you like to generate frenzy very quickly.

Indigon = you need to increase your mana pool and your frenzy mana cost to profit the bonus from spell damage from this helmet. Using mana cost multiplier on support gem is usefull with gmp, and if you invest a lot in mana, you can even use multistrike.

Conclusion => Your chest setup is not good. It will be a bit easier, and maybe more pratical for you to add a last socket to your shav and sell it since it has 4green and 5L. Then buy a new one with 6S, and use this new shav to get more utility slot like :
Vaal Righteous fire / Vaal Grace / Flame dash + faster casting / Inc duration on all


Your gems in poet pens :
Spoiler

Get arc level 20 (or 21)(you don't need quality) ASAP. It cost almost nothing and it is absolutely A MUST. GET IT NOW !!! tremendous difference !!!

Buy support gem lvl20/20, cost not that much, big upgrade.

I hate lightning warp i very much prefer a second dps setup so i can't help you with your second poet.


Your belt :
Spoiler

This particular belt could appear to be good, but it is not. The %leech is useless since warlord mark leech already provide too much regen and hit the cap even with vaal pact.
Change to a crystal belt or if you want dps, a solid stygian belt with a good dps jewel, it will provide much more dps.


The rest :
Spoiler

Remove the health potion and get a fancy wathcer's eye :p


edit : i'm partly drunk so you will excuse my horrible english HAHA
