We want 2 auras tied to BM actually, usually PoF/PoI/PoL/Vitality/Discipline + Clarity (as it reserves flat mana/life).
I use empower + disc + clarity + BM; emp4 + PoF (you may use a +3 ring instead of this link or even use 20/20 PoF if u sustain RF without lvl23 PoF); Vitality and PoI unlinked (5 auras in total). You are not able to use 6-th aura (one of purities) until you get reduced reservation enchant on your helmet.

Orb of storms procs EE and EO. OoS has a very high crit chance due to its unique mechanics, so that's enough.


How are you getting 2 auras + empower + clarity on BM? I can only get 1 aura + clarity before all my life is gone. Sitting at 140 life with just clarity and an aura...

Clarity is also an aura :P I listed my links above. Once again: Clarity+Disc+Emp+BM, the rest of auras reserve mana of course. You also don't have to use exactly clarity tied to BM, any 2 auras but then u'll need enlighten 4.

Right now I am running Disc/Vit and it reserves most of my mana. So you're saying I should tie another 2, to BM & then run 4 auras for now? So Disc/Vit/PoF & Clarity say? ALso I see some using Enlighten, others using Empower, which is prefered for this build?

That means I will either have to ditch some gems, or get two rings with sockets to fill the rest. Which would you recommend I do?

Weapon 3 link - Should I ditch Flame Dash? and say put in PoL for now? FD is nice for ledges/hills tho. Is Vaal Discipline needed or no?
Shield 3 link - perfect as is, using to proc Fortify
Gloves 4 link - missing one socket, but the 4th socket is reserved for Curse on Hit
Helmet 4 link - perfect as is for RF setup

So really it's my boots. I have 6 gems that I'm supposed to use, but only 4 slots.

PoF, PoI, PoL, Discipline, BM & either Enlighten/Empower. Where do you recommend I socket these gems? I currently don't even have Clarity, so that would have to go in place of another gem.

Do I need Vaal Discipline? I could replace that with a purity in my weapon. Then I could do Clarity/Discipline/BM & something else in my boots.

Well, do not be that hurry, just keep lvling up :P Once you get all the reduced mana reservation nodes from the tree you will be able to run 5 auras, 2 of them likned to BM (clarity + something esle unless you have Enlighten4, because if you have it you may use 2 any auras linked to BM, enlighten3 is not enough). Many people use emp+disc+clarity+BM to get some extra ES, clarity is also linked to BM here because it reserves flat mana/life and it is pretty less than any other aura we run so your life pool sustains 2 auras without enlighten.
I would surely drop Flame dash and get Lightning warp. And yes, as far as your main movement(and defensive) skill is Shield charge you may keep LW in your secondary weapon socket, so once you need to use it you just swap your weapons and go :P
Drop flammability when you get this:

Drop elemental weakness and vaal discipline.
You may use this setup in your weapon: Orb of Storms + Inc area of effect + let it be Stone golem, why not, extra regen :P;
in your boots or gloves: BM + disc + clarity + empower or any other gem;
in your boots or gloves: PoF + PoI + PoL + Vitality.
Do not forget that you can get 1% extra max fire res if you use 20lvl PoF + Emp4 or 21lvl PoF + Emp3, or finally try to get some good +3lvl socketed ring for your PoF.

THanks so much for the well thought out & detailed replies, I really appreciate it man. Thanks so much!

Out of curiosity why would you go with LW over FD?

Well, your main movement skill is Shield charge and you say FD is nice for ledges/hills, it means that you only use it to overcome obstacles, but FD's range is small comparing to LW, LW's range is limited to your in-game screen borders only, but it's a duration skill, so you deal with its cast time unless you use reduced duration support gems like Less duration and Swift affliction. But i think it's worth it even without support gems because you dont have to spam LW - u have Shield charge. I play in Standard and personally for me LW is a quality of life :P
Hello i have been trying to do this build in HSC and am having a little trouble for some reason i am very squishy and can not tank very much at all i cant figure out why. I have read through this thread and havent been abile to figure it out here is the link to my char his name is durbanfire https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/burnabud/characters
if anyone can have a look and tell me if you see anything i am doing wrong i would appreciate it thanks for your time
Hello Guards,

can someone tell me, how you prioritize the stats on the rings?

Afhack just explained, why he valued mana reg so high. When I compare most of the posted gear here it looks like +3 Gem > + ES > Stat (Strength/Dex) > fire damage > Resi = Mana Reg = ele attack ( not fire ).

thanks for your help.

Are we able to fit in Herald of Ash somehow? That more burning damage thing seems like it would be huuuuge for this build

The question is whether or not it's worth it
Killed my first Shaper! Not deathless; all due to either error or not being quick enough on the mechanics. Did it with mediocre gear, level 88 and with level 19 gems with barely any quality. A couple of levels, level 20 gems and I reckon I could do it deathless.

Cheers AhFack :D

You mean like, legacy gear? In standard? Cuz ya. Opened up your PoB, laughed and closed it.


it does work almost as good with league gear. 2-3k less ES...
