[3.6] Starter&End Game | Herald Of Agony | 10-25K ES | 3-6M DPS | Occultist | All Content Done Easy

Octavian posted a nice video very recently how to craft/gamble a +1 implicit bow. I thought I'f link it here, might help some of you, when you decide to upgrade from the elder bow.

Sadly I bought my base for 8 ex (Was lucky with 1 guy PMing me if I wanted another one after his first one was sold) before the video, but crafting it was very easy with help from blg_RealiZe post earlier in the thread!

to craft the bow: metallic, serrated, corroded, jagged in 4s resonator (usually takes 1-3 tries to get 20% more damage prefix and 3 random suffixes). Annul a suffix, craft "cannot roll attack modifiers", use bestiary "add a prefix, remove random suffix" - 100% slam +1 to all gems preifx. Then "prefixes cannot be changed", scour and multimod

Took the fossils and 4s resonator I had found sand saved uo earlier and managed hit it on first try, to Annul a suffix to do rest of the craft.

Currently sitting on almost 17k ES (Have plenty of room to improve), Really good ES recharge, dmg and movement speed from all jewels, 35% from boots + enchant feels like a must! Gotta Go Fast!
Next plan is to fit in Haste with Aul's Amulet, but that most likely requires me to run an Unset ring and somehow capping the resistance. Since I'm running a godly Watcher's Eye, I'm kinda very starved on gem slots, need to run clarity and dont wanna drop Increased Duration on IC because it's just so much better than without to get recharge rolling.

Also dont think You can get away with 30% reduced helm enchant for my setup - instead of the ring, because clarity requires extra mana reservation together with spider and all other Auras, and dont feel like dropping Dread Banner or fitting in another Enlighten. Unless you invest into lot of Jewel Sockets and 1% reduced mana reserved corruptions. Clarity with my gear gives me ~1200 ES.

I decied to try a different flask this time around so went with

Together with Zealoth's Oath, Sanctity I have 800 ES regen per second, could go different Lab enchant for another 400 and it allready saved me 2 times in very very rippy Memory Nexus Zones where mobs literally hit for 12k+ ES on 1 single hit. Had bosses hitting me for over 16k with rippy mods, so anything to just help survive! The flask also gives you 10% increased dmg on all targets + onslahgt if you have couple added flat fire dmg from quiver/jewel. Only downside is that it only has 1 charge, but you can play around with it very well! Was one of my favourite flasks from last league. Also the instant ES recovery is nice - even if your herald kills stuff for you, the flask works very well with Profane Bloom that makes packs, your herald kills explode.

slammed my armor about 17 times with dense fossils and not a single time got anything above 490 es... is this normal? lol..

All boils down to luck . The next 3 can be 650+

With the changes in 3.6 to lab enchants not overwriting base-type implicits, isn't Bone Helmet new BIS for pure damage/glass cannon (obviously not survival because hubris beats it out by a longshot in that respect)?

20% increased damage is absolutely pathetic to trade even 300 ES helm to that. It's less than 2% DPS

If you don't need ES from the helmet - get Devoto's, movement speed and attack speed are super nice for fast mapping

Finally got my helmet (innervate D:). Now crawler does two shot bosses in t15 maps :D

By the way, I realised 30% helm is way cheaper than bow, two times and more. If I start new char in fresh league would it be better to go for helmet + hatred first and bow after? DPS and currency wise.

Got some new upgrades for my build,

Crafted a new helmet, trying for reduced mana reservation, but made this:


It'd feel like a crime to roll over that, so I sold my old helm. Got some new gottagofast booties


and made a new ring to run aspect of the spider:

(Of course it rolled bottom of the barrel for energy shield recharge)

I put in a conqueror's efficiency (corrupted with -reservation)

I'm running clarity level 1, as I find i run out of mana autoattacking with withering touch over poachers mark for boss fights.

Build is super beast

currenty at 15,300 es. Need to recraft helm for more es hehe.

using ring and helm, my herald reserves 0 mp.

can fit hatred, banner, spider, discipline np, with 20% reserved left over. Dont even need any enlights.

Been using chain instead of vile toxins for map clears, seems to work better than peircing from proj weakness anyhow.

Mission was a success.

Hey guys,
planning my first Uber Elder attempt with this build.. do u have any suggestions for improvements or what I should invest in?
Somehow I don't feel that powerfull

thx in advance
