🌬️⛵☁️[3.25] The dirty Scorpion-tail|Chaos-Necromancy|Herald of Agony CI-Arachnophobia Allstars|600M+

Yes, the Crit-HoA-Pob is updated and improved.

Already in the last leagues this build`s damage in good gear improved from 237M across 418M to quite attractive 520M.
Now with the good available and craftable b.i.s. rare +8 amulets and cheap rare +2 helmets the Arachnophilia Allstars arrived at the maximal HoA-lvl 40 cap in the high budget-variation and crawl into 606M damage in tanky 230k ehp in [3.25] Settlers.
I hope recombinator-crafting goes core, these b.i.s. boots, helmets and amulets are a huge buff and op.

■ Alternative 500M damage in extreme tanky 1M-2M ehp can be chosen with rainbows, tempestshield, increased aura-effects, and 1 passive more spell suppression.
■ When you prefer instead to focus on dps around 800M are easy reached as necro with the more offensive ascendancy corpse pact, more offensive skills, clusters, whispers of doom or anathema-ring for punishment, increased curse- and mark-effects and intimidations in still very nice 200k ehp.
■ And last not least - of course with more offensive geared boots, belt, shield, auras and flasks much more damage beyond would be dealt when you want to play glascannon and want to almost oneshot all ubers 1 sec faster.

For all updates take a look into the spoiler "The crawler raises - Herald of Agony caught the POE world by storm" and into the last spoiler "updates / changelog" at the bottom of the build.

In this b.i.s. gear the HoA counts:

■ for each supportgem around 200M dps
■ for each one of the final small passives around 10M - 20M
■ for each of the medium clusters 80M - 160M
■ for each of the damage-orientated jewels 100M

It`s awesome.
I do not know a better scaling minion, sorry, even squishy spectres, holy relics or meta-bamas cannot really compete.
It`s awesome beside that HoA`s budget in these b.i.s.-gear-categories is still much cheaper as other minion-builds and easy and flexible to scale with the medium pure agony-clusters.

Arachnophilia!

HoA arrives in half a billion - and much more.

It`s the league for some b.i.s. again.


... I cannot remember such a rare rolled aegis aurora since long times in [3.21] Crucible.

Some totally b.i.s.:


I am still trying to craft better ones:

Nice to be doubled by the Adorned to +3/+4:





With the b.i.s. clusters and megalomaniacs and good ghastlys jewels I reached 210 unreserved mana, 140 mana/sec, 130 overcapped resis, 4 curses, 50M dps. And I have the fitting gear for 140M dps HoA-crits in stash.

In ordinary content the HoA-jugg I play this league is almost immortal and died only 4x in levels 80-100 (do not retell, I did U-sirus in unfitting mapping equipment asenath's gentle touchs on low 3k es and on top I forgot to reactivate ghost dance 5 levels long, equal to 40% less ehp, lol).
Now in lvl 100 I farm in titanic gigantified rogue exiles strategies also in t17's including crazy mods like 300-400% increased map-mods, 3x 300% additional elemental damage, seance, wrath of the cosmos, 80% delirious etc. - not deathless, but good & easy doable.

Because the high unreserved mana and mana-reg are not often needed I'll balance further into more damage and do beside recombinations and shipments for one of the imba +8 amulets.

Hi,

I need some help with my Build.

I need to get to at least to 20k phys max hit and general tankiness.

Ele max hits aren't rly a problem in general and I mostly look out for the modifiers in my Maps.

I'm aware that I don't have Frost Shield in my setup because it didn't proc reliably and couldn't rly save me from being One-shotted.

Thanks in Advance

As long as frostshield is not often procced, use simply cws/cwdt-frostwalls lvl 1 for a lot tankyness. Your flesh offering is not much effective, you can switch it to such tanky skills or to mana-reg with clarity.

Yes, you need a bit more mana-reg. You can easy get mana-reg and mana-recoups on better ghastly jewels, then double them in darkness enthroned. In example your cobaltjewel blightruin is not optimal, get a better one.

You are also close to 100% ailment-immunities. Get a better circle of nostalgia with ailment avoidances as implicit and use the shield-mastery to switch out ancestors vision for another ghastly jewel.

Alternative in your set-up you can switch forbidden flame and flesh to 2 more ghastly jewels also. Forbidden flame and flesh get only in lategame b.i.s. when you want to max damage with HoA-crits.

Phys max hit taken is important against outliners like u-shaper's slam or when you really want to activate phys-overwheming altars in t-17 or in rippy mapmods reduced armour and block.

The build stacks already 60% up to the hardcapped 90% flat-dr, high armour and 20 more defensive layers, so you can go a bit lower in different ordinary content. Of course more is always best. But in good gear and buffed the Allstars tank 7 U-shaper-slams, that should be enough I guess.

To stack more phys-ehp please visit the spoiler "checklist defences: es/ehp", eg on boots and helmet you could get 1000 more es. In "boss hunting - the ubers" --> "flat damagereductions" are many useable buffs listed too like enfeeble, sapped ground, against ubers iron reflexes etc. Or try a different rare flask with increased armour-suffix instead taste of hate. But an improved mana-management for frostshield or cycloning for movement and some bleeding avoidances on ghastly jewels are probably the best.

Your 3k es are a bit low, visit in checklist defences "ehp / es" to stack 3.5k eg with a better rolled helmet or boots too.

Your spell block is very low, so you lack a lot of damage avoidances and recovering with es on block. Switch in tempestshield in place of flesh and stone.

thx a lot I will take a look into it :)

Greetings!
wise friends, tell me how to improve the build

Hello everyone, does anybody know why switching my Eber's Unification for a rare Elmet with mana reservation and Es suddenly makes me apply about half as many stacks of poison to enemies?
The void gaze shouldn't help with poison stacks sooo, why is it happening?
BTW I didn't just accidentaly run a map with chance to evade poison, I tested it multiple times in various circumstances.

Nevermind I figured it out, without the % ele to chaos that Eber gives I can't proc poison stacks with tornado of turbulance and ball lightning, so I was only gettin stacks with my Cyclone

To be honest, I am very disappointed with what I managed to do, about 350+div were invested in the build, the equipment seems to be good but I can't close T16 without dying, I die constantly despite the fact that in the build I have to press a bunch of buttons. If the map has a mod to reduce auras = death, reduce block = death, no regen = death, if there is none of this, I still die often despite 85 resistances and 4k EC, as well as immunity to elemental states, immunity to bleeding and ignite. The only thing I couldn't find suitable armor for the 100% spell suppression and i took ghost dance, but I think this will not help in any way, I don't even know what to do next.
It's my pob https://pobb.in/AQXZDkv4QIEt (I don't know why it shows less ES, actually I have 4k)

Well we have 600M+ DPS. But can't be also super tanky. Something we take something we give. It is expected to die a few times, like lose all portals before you even meet the boss of the map.
