I've just built it, while i am missing a belt i can't seem to see what i'm missing, i'm dying even in Blood Aqueducts (I'm probably missing a lot hahaha) could you please have a look?<3

- Also wondering, for the upgrades section, is there a PoB that shows the final build so it's easier to follow the upgrades section?


Missing the 20% mana recouped as life from the watcher's eye and need to increase level of clarity by one to mana gate (slightly above 200 unreserved mana right now). Getting at least 2% cooldown recovery would also be nice, but isn't as mandatory as the the other two. Getting 10-15 more levels and a belt will also help a lot. Afraid not, this build has a lot of inter-dependency between items which makes a final POB difficult (budgets of a final build also vary e.g. nine lives lets you change a lot of your itemization and passive tree in ways that would cause the build to fail before getting those (currently) extremely expensive forbidden flame/flesh jewels).

Hello man love your build so much, but I still die a little bit and struggle a bit in yellow maps

here is the pob: https://pobb.in/4kiZ19EhtoUf

just have a couple of questions:

- what pantheons do I choose ? I am running Brine king and Ralakes.

- do level Blazing Salvo and Firestorm or keep it at lvl 1 ?

- to help me survive a little a picked Zealot's Oath and kinda helped a little, do I keep it or speac into something else?

thank you …

Hello I'm currently running this build as my first autoloader. I feel like I've got my build really close to working as intended. Something I can't wrap my mind around is why are blazing Salvo and firestorm lvl 1? I know i can level them but your POB seems to show them at lvl 1. also if you have any other tips they would be appreciated. i think i have a few more levels to go before i complete the tree. then if theres any extra points i might add some stuff and see what i can do with it. some extra tankiness would be great.

Im still working on getting my mana below 200 by leveling Clarity and maybe Vitality if needed.

I intend to get another perfect roll Secret Storm.

Brine King and Ralakesh are good options but I'd consider swapping to Gruthkul. Staying with physical damage mitigation, I'd try to get a little bit of quality on Warlord's Mark for more reliable endurance charges. I'd recommend keeping them at level 1 for now, once you get a more character levels you can try increasing the gem level. Nothing wrong with taking zealot's oath, but the energy shield regeneration probably won't be that significant. Biggest upgrades are just getting more levels, dropping down a few map tiers for a bit and getting into the mid 80s should help a lot.

Build looks really close, the biggest issue is some of the triggered skills don't cost 100 mana though (marks should be level 8 and curses level 6). Blazing Salvo and Firestorm are level 1 to reduce the mana cost, since their damage primarily comes from Energy Blade/Spell Blade/Battlemage. Biggest thing for tankiness is going to be getting resists capped, which is going to come from a +to all elemental resistance roll on the quicksilver flask (though a bismuth flask might be the easiest way for you right now). Some quality on warlord's mark will also help with endurance charges and Gruthkul Pantheon can get some more physical damage mitigation.
Thank you for the response. this season i can only find a +20 to all resistances on a flash. the +39ish that you are showing in the POB isnt available +20 is max roll tier 1. i was thinking of redoing my boots and letting go of a stat to get some more cold and fire. i think im like 18 short on each with my +15 all res flash. is there something else you might recommend to get those resistances? i doubled checked all my marks and curses are all over 100 mana on my skill bar something must be showing wierd in the POB. I appreciate the help.

thanks man this helped a lot, thank you for taking the time to replay <3

hi.


I decided to build the build and I think I have a decent gear, but I think something is not right or I really don't know if the build reached its limit, can u take a look?

https://pobb.in/K_tJbo8wEEL5
After using this for a while, I think it's time for me to review this Build.

Survivability - 4/10
This build has very difficult time getting off it's spells when first starting out but oh boy, when it does, everything around you will start to be decimated. Unfortunately, you will be damaging yourself which half the times, you will die due to bad luck when your spells for some strange reason will not fire off despite the multiple castings. Also, you will need to utilize areas with big open areas as tight spaces are the bane for this build. Can take about 2 to 3 hits from normal monsters considering your always damaging yourself, but you are going to constantly need to dodge the Map Bosses and Unique Bosses as most of their attacks will one shot you due to Low Resistances and Low Physical Reduction. Shock Immune Magic or Rare Monsters are a nightmare to this build (*cough* Expedition *cough*). Most the resistance can be completed with Cluster Jewels or other Passives, but it feels like that should of not been needed to complete the resistances. If any passive points are going to be used, it should be used for more Damage Output instead of resistances. I don't know but it definitely needs work.

Damage - 6/10
Damage is very very good and it is above average. However, it just doesn't do enough for Map Bosses and Unique bosses as they will take time. You'll probably spend about 2 to 5 minutes on T16 Bosses but forget about Uber Bosses as this just doesn't do enough damage output to take care of them. Otherwise, great way to clear tons of mobs in short amount of time.

Gear Costs - 8/10
The gear needed to complete this build is very good for it's budget. I was able to buy most of the gear under 5 divines at the time I started this build. Both Ice Build and Energy Blade Build are great costs due to how bizarre this build is. You'll find that it's very easy to complete either two builds with as few as 10 divines.

Overall - 6/10
The Build itself is nice and a very strong for mob clearing, unfortunately it falls short when it comes to defenses and strong rares or uniques. I would not recommend this build if your looking for a good map clear build as you will die half the times due to the effects of HoT. It's probably due to that this build has yet to be completed as both PoBs by author shows it only going up to level 92. Again, would not recommend doing this build unless your doing it because your bored.
