Having some issues with the 100% defence version. We are no longer able to get 24% reduced mana res on HOA on our ring as its no longer classed as a mana mod. will that cause issues for us as im currently unable to run HOA but im still missing 1 jewel with 1% RMR.

Looks like you are running a astramentis, try a amulet with RMR for discipline that has dex and str. How short are you on stats?

Yes, in these days the grace-aul's is very hard to get.


A aul's uprising with free "discipline" is very nice possibility to get a lot of free mana.

But the downside with intelligence- aul's uprising is, that you still will need around 50 dex more on different gearslots like the belt for the HoA lvl 21 requirements.

Thank you very much for the reply, but i still dont feel the build, tankiness is okay but still dying at tribute, Boss dmg is meh and overall dont know what item would give more dmg? im currently lvl 94 and missing the body armor + aul = tankiness, but how do i get so much dmg?

https://pastebin.com/bepH61D6

What should i improve ? hmm

I check later your pob on desktop-pc.

Most damage you get with the medium clusters with "pure agony" and castspeed for singletarget situations to stack the virulences.

With 20% and 19% rmr on the rings and also charisma on the amulet you have eventually too much not reserved mana and loose armourand energyshield. With a bit more less manareservation you can take a different anoint on your amulett.

When you are dying, in the "faq" is a list to check, like resistances or did you maxed the pantheons? Upgrade the quality of the flasks.
Your boots are fine, but have a bit low energyshield. Your belt is with a different crafting instead added life as CI better.

Your gear is already great!
Empower lvl 4 would be a nice upgrade for damage (or take maim instead empower lvl 3 and a different amulet-anoint unnatural calm for more es), bottled faith too. A helmet enchant would be a huge upgrade. An offensive curse, like sniper's mark on the cws setup (but you would loose frostwall) or vulnerability on hit, will improve your damage a lot too.

I have added poison on a jewel, so yeah, HoA is online.

I feel like flasks / more armor / vaal grace won't do much if I'm so low on es. I'll try though... thanks for the tips.

Not sure if this build is viable in HC. Without some gear if feels really fragile with low damage. I played The Blockman 2 leagues ago, it has a way smother gearing experience.

BUT: This build is awesome when you start to get some gear. OK I am only mapping till t7 now, but in Ultimatums I really don't care what is the next reward, because I actually can't die. Once got somehow stuck in a T7 on a rune from Baran, surrounded by enemies. Could not cast, could not move and could not flask. I stoud there for solid 30 seconds, geting hammered on. Sure my ES drop once to 40%, but half a second and two blocks later, it was full again.

Its really is an awesome Build if you want to play relaxed PoE. For me its perfect in Ultimatum since I don't have to dodge anything. My adaptive resolution in Ultimatum drops so low, I can't even tell where the Chaos cloud (chaos immune is op), the frost orbs or the lightning circles are. I just stand there and hammer away.

My only issue is: I have sometimes a hard time to spawn spiders in fights like the maven trials. But the agony crawler will kill them sooner or later anyway.

Yes, in the levels around transforming to CI with missing gear like shield, helmet, healthy mind, golden rule and before getting pure agony on medium clusters the build is l8w damage. These levels are not nice to get, it's a bit easier with some different skills for levelling and getting the ascendancies and then of course the gear.

Thank you a lot! Yes, in most maps and boss-arenas and situations, when there are hits or spellhits to block, the build is unkillable. Only dot and aoe can kill you, but there are a lot layers of defences against also builded up. In endgame when you are full geared I think too, it's perhaps the most tanky build on the tree.

Your gear is improving very fine!
When you like, you can level gems you want to try out or use later or want to corrupt on your weapon slot key "x". Take there also gear and level your gems.

Vaal grace, even without out the activating the aura, is a powerfull defensive skill. You have corrupted grace, but not vaal grace.

And you can anoint your amulet with a notable to get a nice upgrade too.

Hehe, thank you a lot!

You can get a rare amulet, with 25-30% reduction that can have a bunch of Dex on it.

like this one. Granted, this one isn't the greatest but I got it for barely anything and can be a cheap stopgap measure for someone on a budget.



I am also very happy with my current amulet too. That permanent endurance charge for another 4% physical reduction is nice. I just need to save up now for the blue nightmare.

Aaah, yes, they are very good also!
And have a lot good stats!
I missunderstood before and thought about aul's uprising with discipline has no reservation, es and int.

These frees dex- stats and slots on gloves, belt, boots or ring and are very fine before getting aul's uprising later.

After sniping the market for a week finally got the amulet.


The last 2 problems is to get the Skin of The Lords with 2 R 3 G 1 B sockets and Iron Reflexes

Since the start of the league there was only ONE!! on sale and was sold for a 30 Ex . Which is an absurd price.

And the Aegis Aurora with Determination is only 1 shield on sale since the league start for 15 Ex. People are crazy greedy for nothing hehe

Hehe, Hey Hey0cean,

great, that nice piece is doubled or trippled in our set-up and synergies high again in stats.

Yes, the Aul's uprising is so hard to get this league. Delving rewards in deep delve were nerfed, but not Aul's drops. I think this league some players less are delving. Often they start deeper delving also after gearing. Last league they were sold often around 2 exalt, then later 1 exalt, 40 chaos, 20 chaos.

When you are delving, visit the Aul's citadels, they drop the amulet. I am not sure if you need a minimum deep 250 lvl for the amulet to drop.

The shield with implicit granted determination is much more hard to obtain. You can corrupt a lot shields and do not get it. But when you get one with added spellblock it is sometimes sold for hundreds exalts, when you like crafting and trading it's a possibility to make some currency. I think you can targeted get the implicit in harvest crafting, but I am not experienced with it.

Other corruptions are also worthful on the shield, phys as chaos damage taken is high traded. Less crit is powerfull too. For this build gemsockets are very worthfull, so determination is the best mod for us and bis, spellblock or less crit are also great.

When you are in need of a free socket, in "Skillmanager" are a lot possibilities, but the implicit corruption on the shield is the best.

And yes, the iron reflexes on Skin of the lords with popular socket colours can be expensive too. But sometimes they are still cheap to snipe.

Until level 98 a lot variants work fine and very tanky too, see spoiler "gear, skill, links" ---》 "Skin of the lords" .

But for levels 98 to 100 iron reflexes is bis and synergyzes bis with ascendancy, mana and our shield es on block.

Nice - how much did it an Grace Aul's cost?

I did this build as a league starter and levelled with Zombies and Storm Brand.

When I switched to HoA I used a 3-link bow with Rain of Arrows, Lesser Poison and Faster Attacks Support to get the stacks, which it did very reliably.
HoA was on a 4 link most of the time with Minion Damage, Pierce and Vicious Projectiles.

Zombies were used until I got the Fang with Feeding Frenzy, Meat Shield, Minion Damage - though they died a lot.

I levelled up Vitality and Stone Golem and used Holy Flame Totem to regen my way out of any difficulty.

I switched to Ball Lightning once I got Spell Echo and used Lesser Poison until I got a decent chaos jewel before switching to Poison Support.

I switched to CI around level 70 without Memory Vault, Aegis Aurora or Skin of the Loyal as they were still a bit too expensive.

Instead I used:
- 5 link body armour with 1100 armour and 250es - picked up for 5c
- Archon kite shield with 500 armour and 150es - picked up for 3c
- Bated Breath belt, well rolled - picked up for 2c?
- Healthy Mind jewel - picked up early for 12c - hard to predict prices on this
- Energy Shield clusters at the top and middle of the tree.

This was enough to get around 3-4k es and around 11k armour.
I was still using Stone Golem and Vitality for regen but not able to do Ultimatums very well.
Could also not do Uber Lab as damage was not high enough.

Upgrading to Aegis, Memory Vault and Skin made it all work.

Bought in order:
Aegis was 45c
Skin was 30c (corrupted but who cares)
Memory Vault was 40c

I just waited until the prices on these fell to what I was comfortable spending.

Now around 44k armour, 70k with Granite flask. Still not got Rumi's as a 10 spellblock one is bit high at 35c. It'll drop to nothing later in the league.

I think a high level Divergent CWS gem is quite important if you're going to use this gem. Worth the 30c I paid as it already had 16% quality. Don't know what it is now.

Also I am extremely lazy and so I link Molten Shell, Frost Shield and Spirit Offering to Divergent CWS with Enfeeble and Snipers Mark linked to CWDT.

I like to use Vigilant Strike with 20 quality and high level for 12sec+ Fortify. The Vigil jewel does not help increase the time for Fortify so don't bother buying that.

I don't bother with Vaal Grace or Vaal Haste as I'm still on lower tier maps and haven't needed to use them.

Before getting the Fang, I was using a +1 All Physical Skill Gem sceptre with 100 mana and cast speed that I bought for 5c?

Paid 20c for a 19% mana reservation Circle of Nostalgia. Mistake on my part but it had 20 All stats and a 9 All stats implicit.

The Writhing Worms jar only needs to be used once and it spawns 2 spiders for every corpse already on the ground.

Will be interesting to see how it handles high red tier maps.


Edit:

I picked up a 21 level Herald of Agony gem for 5c.

All tipps for raising spiders in all situations are in the spoiler "blizzard" and in "FAQ" examples for keybindings.


Sometimes Einhar or Heist members are faster killing the flying worms, but with 2x desecrate, then fast writhing jar, then fast ice nova or frostblink it is most easy.

Zoom into to see the worms lifting off, in this moment frostblink or ice/ shock nova. It is not difficult, but you have to use the keybuttons fast.

And like Schnubbel writes.

Thanks Chromino and Schnubbel.

I see why you have a section on keybinds. I will need to practice to find a system that suits me. At the moment I have Molten Shell on left, Ball lightning on right, ice nova on mouse wheel.

On all my previous builds I have had Q and W for panic skills, and D for movement. They are so ingrained now, that I don't think I could change them! :-)

Yes, take the keys that are intuitive and fitting for you!

For different gamers different keys and controls work best!

I have it the same, some kind of skills have to be on some controls and I cannot change them too, hehehe.
