Pob does not take into account standard resistances in maps, you have to input it manually. Nearly every mob in the game during standard play will be overcapped in their resistances.
They are comparable for bossing, but during standard mapping pen will blow ele focus out of the water.
I have my pob set to shaper as the enemy. When I slot in ele focus I gain 70k more dps than if I wore light pen. I also tried it for normal mobs with 75% light res and still ele focus comes out on top (50k dps diff). My sources of additional pen are from wise oak and 10% boot enchant so I was just wondering if this pob dps increase might be wrong. Thanks for your input.
I answered this already - yes the pob calcs are wrong. You need to manually set resists.
Hi,this build is amazing,currently I am running a HoT autobomber,which I farmed some currency,now I am think about transfering into this build.But I saw the Discipline-Wrath-Zealotry 3auras one the PrismGuardian reserved 103%mana(which turned into life by blood magic),So I would like to ask how to get it under 100%,by taking the nodes on passive tree?Thank you.
I am also curious about the how tanky this build is,I saw that in POB the MOM arcane cloak Ascendant miner build has more DPS and survivability,so I am curious,is that POB not calculating it right or the Ascendant(Scion)is actually better for being miners?(Which does not make sense to me because lots of people are playing saboteurs as well)
This is the scion miner build I copy from a youtuber Arcane https://pastebin.com/zu7CA0xi
For the mana reservation, yes you need to pick up the nodes on the tree.
For the ascendant version, it used to be be good, but the changes to BL and Slower Proj this past patch made it unplayable imo since it lost a gigantic amount of dps. Pob does not take into account the aoe that BL needs to hit the 13 hit cap. Also, this build (well really all builds) does not translate well into dps numbers on PoE ninja, so take that into account. Very rarely do those numbers actually line up with how in game feels.
On defense, mom loses you too much to be worthwhile, and you can build this as defensively as you want. I leveled one solo to 100 in delirium, which was a pretty deadly league if that says anything.
The standard build has a few main defensive layers, high es, lots of regen / leach, enfeeble, blind, and block. You can also go max block if that’s your preference.
Well thanks!That helps a lot!But what should I change if I wanna do max block in order not to lose huge dps?And is this build suitable for 5 delirum orb map farming?
What would be the best thing to craft on this? Augment critical?
Also, do I want remove physical damage and quality = elemental damage harvest craft?
Yeah critical would be good, 50/50 to hit spell crit. Could also go the influence ex route, but may not be worthwhile on that base. aoe or ele are both good.

Can go for some of the block wheels around the middle of the tree dropping the cluster jewels.
For 100% delirium, it works fine, but does take some investment. It’s cheaper than most other builds that can farm those maps though.

Looks like I was half lucky. I guess spell crit mult woulda been better since its higher %

Is it possible/worth it to include Herald of Thunder to the list of auras? Possibly drop Clarity for it? When I try, I get to 0 mana so I can't use it.
I'm only using an enlightened 3 gem, don't have a 4 to test.

Only if you have two other forms mana reduction aside from what we are already running.
