Fyregrass' Comprehensive Storm Brand Assassin Guide - Currently Dead Build. Revisit in 2 weeks.

Love this build, reinvigorated me when I was almost over the league. Would anybody mind taking a look at what my next upgrade should be? I think maybe clusters but I also know I need to be tankier and potentially some more DPS so I'm not fully sure. Here is my POB and I linked gear https://pastebin.com/KRAm30BU

I thought about playing this build but the lack of survivability scared me away from this build since I really suck at dodging things and knowing boss mechanics. Is there a tanky version of this build?
your god tier POB has only got mapping no bossing or deler.
Almost done with the league, boys.

It's been minmax city for the past few weeks now and I feel like I'm pretty much done. I wish harvest were still around so that I can try to push it further, which would likely keep me interested for a while longer. If there's one upside to that, it's that it made me get a bit more bold with crafting which, luckily, paid off big time this league (highlights: chest piece, amulet).

Went balls to the wall on damage (the only condition being not dipping under 3k hp and always having a source of blind + withering step) and capped at nearly 40 mil per brand WITHOUT using assassin's mark or conductivity/ele weakness. Replacing vaal grace with vaal righteous fire would skyrocket that to nearly 45, but I honestly dislike using RF and would rather have the extra defensive tool.

POB:
https://pastebin.com/7D5EUkR7 - General gameplay setup (90% of the time)
https://pastebin.com/WDjFZZNv - Bossing/Invitation setup (awakened hextouch conductivity + ele weakness as well as a bossing belt - 57 mil dps per brand)

See you next league.

Edit: added bossing POB purely for flexing purposes. Switching between setups involves 2 clicks to replace gloves and belt.

Yeah, it's instaphasing galore. Invitations is where the build shines and outscales everything else (in my opinion) due to how brands interact with multiple targets to ping to and from. I'm not sure of the proper way to measure it, but with enough attachment range the DPS must be in the hundreds of millions. I'm not kidding when I say I've dropped 2 man feared invitations in less than 5-10 sec, solely depending on how fast the bosses spawn.

The build is surprisingly resilient for being squishy as hell. Blind and withering step are the main defence mechanics and vaal grace + the attack dodge on focus from the helmet are good panic tools when stuff gets dicey(normally only really needed in delve/100% deli maps/simulacrums).

Small update - I've logged on last night to craft new gloves/belt in order to try to hit 60 mil per brand since I already had unnerve/culling on a cluster. It worked.

Hello all, TY for the build Fyre and the walkthrough.

This is where I am currently with my gear/skills. I am stronger than i have ever been :P BUT I figured I'd post and get critiqued and corrected.


This char should? have more dps in PoB but i don't know what I am doing wrong. Assassins mark isn't showing up in the calcs.


Two main questions:
These are my gloves

if there are two curses on an item do both get applied or are they limited by the characters curse limit of 1 by default?

Secondly I have whispers of doom invested in tree, if my curse limit is 2 then do the gloves take both?


Any and all criticisms are welcome.
