[3.10 HC] Apep's Darkpact Totems are BACK (original build 3.1-3.3)

Hello there - I've recently started following the build, and so far I've handled myself quite OK - up to tier 13 included - but I sometimes have issues with bosses as my HP doesn't regenerate fast enough (343/s).

That said, I have a bigger issue - my dps numbers aren't that awesome. So there's my question - what should I change, what should I upgrade? What potions should I use?

Thanks for all help you can give!

What do you guys think about using Tukohama's shield?
I played this build till lvl96 when I ripped at Hydra (dmg mod, carelessness and maybe unlucky). I think the build is great, it's even gret for guardian farming but I don't it's shaper viable in HC. I have no experience on shaper but my feelings in standard were that dps is little bit underwhelming for shaper. In sc it's shaper viable for sure even with mediocre gear.

Tukohama might not work at all since super MoM is...super strong for this build. Maybe in sc it can work easily but other builds are probably superior then (like ancestral warchief builds). Hierophant is just so damn defensive that this will be my next league starter if they aren't going to nerf DP.

good job making it to 96 though :)
i think hydra is the worst guardian by far for this build. i downed it once in sc at 91 or 92, didnt feel like doing it again. if you get bad map mods the fight is really messy.
i think the order of guardians from easiest to hardest is chimera < phoenix < mino < hydra. With chimera being notably ridicolously easy even with crappy map mods (which is nice since he can be more than annoying for different builds).

The only major thing i can spot at a quick glance is the the lack of 20/20 dark pact. if you had 600c to buy a 6l covenant you surely have another 5c or so to buy a corrupted 20/20 gem :)
Other than that looks more or less fine, I was happily clearing t15 maps with a similar setup.

Potions are up to preference in this build i think. Personally for quick mapping i like to use 2 health pots, 1 mana and 2 quicksilvers (both with curse removal too...no temporal chains gonna slow me down :p ). For health your best bet is to get at least 1 forbidden taste. other one could have bleed removal.
can someone tell me what i could improve about my char? Level 93 5.3khp 1.3k es. 20k dps in my ho
Hello, thanks for the build. i was desperate to find a good build to play HC, i've played 2H cyclone maurauder @ HC before even act 4 release and died at lvl 82. stoped playing since then, now i've came back and i am really enjoying your build. atm i am level 50, have a tabula rasa and one apep, just killed shavrone @ act 6. Do you have any recomendation to go trough the game from now on?
Since you've changed a lot of stuff on this build can you update it on the gear section so we can see excalty where everything goes and how you have it all set up please be much appreciated

Pretty much everything is right, except dropping frenzy for wither/cwc/skeletons/minion life. I can confirm that doing so is strong af. With all totems up, channeling that will make boss life go from 100% to 0% in a shocking amount of time.
I've got everything the same and trying to do guardians but it's just taking way to long the damage output it really slow I'm sitting at 6k health and 4k manna 30k dps on totem but I don't seem to do much past tier 13
