Greetings .. I like this build very much. It allowed me to do many things I couldn't do in the game before. Thanks :) I have only one question. How do we add the sixth storm brand? I only have 5 storm brands.

Annoint explosive runes for the 6th. It is a large DPS cut versus other possible annoints, but helps with clear immensely. I took it for farming Splinters and Simulacrums.

So I've been playing this SB for weeks and having so much fun with it. For those who wondered about Sanctuary of Thought, Watcher's eye and etc, I will give my honest opinion on them.

For comparison (according to my current PoB),
1. With Sanctuary of Thought and no Watcher's eye = 8M DPS Shaper,7.9k ES

2. Without Sanctuary of Thought and no Watcher's eye = 15M DPS Shaper, 5.5k ES

3. Without Sanctuary of Thought and with Watcher's eye = 14M DPS Shaper, 8,4k ES

With that being said, I think Watcher's eye is great in general. You got your damage and ES, which helps you to survive in this game. I did buy one yesterday but sold them again right away. To be honest, those 3k ES difference doesn't do much for me. I did manage to kill all the bosses this game offered with only 5.5k ES. 8k ES seems to be safer, but it doesn't mean you are immortal. On the other hand, playing with lower life helps you to play better (mechanics and knowledge), since you don't want to get killed by some weird boss attacks, etc. If you have enough money, I think it's nice to get the Watcher's eye (why not?). I think Sanctuary of Thought is perfect for leveling because you don't want to die a lot just because of having not enough ES. At the end game, I would recommend of dropping Sanctuary of Thought for Conviction of Power. If you're pushing to 100, perhaps don't do this. But if you're stop thinking about leveling (mine at 94), I don't see the reason for not giving up some ES for tons of damage. I died sometimes, but when i died, my SB is killing the boss as well :)

List of victims : Conquerors, A8 Sirus, Elder, Shaper, Uber Elder, Ahuatotli, Aul, T16 100% delirious, Kosis, Atziri, 154/154 bonus and awakening, and those mini bosses :D. I did tried the HoGM, but my laptop gave up on me. I killed some! before running out of portal because of dying from the FPS drop :(

PS: I sold my Watcher's eye just because I wanted to try some other builds :) Don't try this at home

Cheers!

You shouldn't be spreading misinformation. MoM only protects life, so even if you have all of that any damage will still go to ES first, so you don't get 20k eHP.

Overall, in my opinion 7k is usable, but if you're juicing and trying to level it's still very much in one shot range even for later Simulacrum waves and T16s juiced.

Quick Q : Do you have to allocate 3 passives for Dreamer even with Unnatural beside it? I see it on this POB.
