If i'm currency farming i normally wear bisco's leash/collar and just go 5/1 with a stone golem to keep my regen up. Once you have empower 4 and other big dps you can run red maps like this no problem.

Only leash and collar ? No boots, no gloves ?

Hi, quick question. Do you think it's worth get chest that as +1 maim but no +1 lvl to gems? (of course with some life and res). They seems way cheaper than skin of the loyal, even though I like 100% global defenses.

Also, how you got that minion bismuth flask? Just alteration spam?

I tested this build at very last days of last league and loved it, didn't even got that far. Now I'm going full golems, planning farm uber elder and hitting my first char 100lvl.

Personaly i used the Maim chest and i do not have the +1socket extra for the moment…
Last league, i had 3 week to try this build and i kill all end game with just the Maim



This is what i use…. I never had a Skin for comparaison.


Oh and @utopian238 i need your opinion…. For my Ice Golem, i tried to get the + 1 but didn' t land it… But i was surprise with what i got…. I stayed at 20, but the corruption gave me 20 % increased minion damage ( see the gem ) … I guess it's worth keeping or you would go for the 21 instead ?

+1 level to golem is 10% more damage, 20% increased from the gem is roughly 4%

If you're not doing Uber Elder or if you have an Empower 4 the +1 maim is > +1 level to gems. The ice golems don't really die anything else.

The minion bismuth flask in the PoB? That's custom created to fix a problem with PoB not correctly calculating the elementalist ascendancies. If not that, which flask are you referring to?

I didn't like how giving up the accuracy felt when being super zoomy on maps compared to CoP but you could drop them np, was just my personal preference. My boots kept me res capped but could easily be given up and just run a PoE aura, by the time i could afford them last league, i was dumping all of my currency last league chasing a +2 gem levels/Maim support chest craft.

You can also get item rarity on the chest you make for Maim support + Item rarity support if you use a Shaper Base instead of an Elder Base.

Yes, exactly that =D. What 5th flask you recommend? That mana flask that gives 100% armour in PoB? Also, I'm testing that new Brutality + MoM for more survivability.

For Flasks I like the following

Rumi's (This is priority #1)
Taste of Hate or Karui's (Priority #2)

If MoM, I enjoy a good mana flask with burn removal

For flasks 4 and 5 pick your favorite flavour. Make sure one of them is staunching for bleed immunity, I prefer a stibnite/Bottled Faith.

Mastondonic's math here is correct

The 21/0 gems are far superior to the 20/20 gems in terms of damage. Go buy Rite of the Elements cards until you get lucky.

I made this dope mace for this season. I don't like zombies range. Since they dont have the jewl to make them aggresive I have to stand inside what I have to kill all the time.

This mace should be good for this build correct?



Obviously it's colored wrong at the moment.

Is there a variation of the build for a weapon like this? I noticed you guys are going maim in chest but I feel like this weapon is better and opens up the chest piece.
