I was farming uber today, level 83/84 with 4.2-4.3k hp. Everything in there tickled and izaro melted. My gear cost me like 25 ish chaos so far. Still one shotting packs with Inc AoE in yellow maps.

Gonna move on to reds and maybe some guardians tomorrow after i've farmed some more currency to buy some of the big upgrades.

I can justify wearing the crab armor if wearing abyssus but it feels like overkill otherwise. An Astral Plate / Belly is more than enough if going the Starkonja route, and makes it easier to cap resistances and go more offensive on the jewels / rings / ammys.


Can you set your character to be visible on the website here please?

I would like to look at your gear and tree.
Thanks so much for the build Primate! Killer job, having a lot of fun.

It sounds like I need to swap the Belly for a Craiceann's. DPS is no problem but I do feel very squishy the higher I get in maps.. also a little concerned about ulabs with the current setup.

Any other recommendations?



Thanks to everyone contributing here too, great insight. :)

Some nice gear there. Do not understand the belt / rings they have almost 0 life and fairly low res. Your gear is so great (oskarm + deaths door) that you must be doing something I don't understand sorry.

The only major suggestion I would have for you is to come to my hideout and hand over that gear :D

Ya I just noticed the same thing, I did not add it up completely but it looks like the resistances might be a bit low and the life is definitely going to be low. You for sure need more life :)
Didnt see if you already mentioned it, but there is a beast recipe that gives 30% instead of 20% quality. This is a huuuge buff for both Hegemonys and Stormwall, since they both dont have % inc phys.
For my current char it would be a difference of ~7% dps.

Btw. I think you will struggle with mana on longer boss fights with this setup and I think with just 4 free items slot and -chaos res from gloves, chaos damage will be a problem in endgame.
I think its a pretty solid build. I ran with a 5l Stormwall, then a 6socket Heg dropped, and I 5 linked it. Ill worry about 6l later. I do have a few suggestions.
Drop the quicksilver flask for a silver flask. Currently I'm running Diamond of heat, Silver of Warding.

Get an enduring Cry in the setup. You dont have to link it to anything else, and its like a mini health pot.

If you want to go Abyssus, make sure you have lots of armor, or your going to feel very squishy.

Im not sold on Hatred, if your going Avatar or Fire. Hatred ginvg 35% of your damage as cold is nice. But AoF only converts 50% of your cold damage. In your PoB link, which I know isnt optimal, AoF + hatred nets 17% more dmg. Without AoF Hatred nets you 25% more dmg. I would imagine their is something better we can do than Hatred if we go AoF.

Pathing to Stamina, above Juggernaut. If you path the opposite side, you lose an 18% increased End Charge duration node, and gain .2% life regen per End charge. I dont have charges expire due to Duration.

I know Ascendancy wise Unstoppable is not really a dps increase, and its a hard trade from other ascendancies. But no stun, +move speed, etc, really is nice. No Stun, but still 10% ish, depending on gear, evade is nice.

Thanks for mentioning about Hatred and the cold conversion, I did not think of that when I picked up AoF. I will find something else to replace it, what I would really like to do is have another 25% so we still have 50% of our mana since it really can be a huge issue with a 5L or 6L.

The main thing I would like to try is the Craiceann's Carapace with Aspect of the Crab. That will reserve 25% and give HUGE survivability to the whole build. We just end up losing even more DPS and the more I mess with the build the more dps we lose :/

**EDIT** Actually I think the best option is to get Flammability and set it up with Blasphemy as it would actually add DPS over Hatred, just have to figure out where to put both gems, maybe I will get an Unset Ring and put hatred or the golem in it. And this would reserve 15% less mana.

I was really lucky today while leveling on act 9 and got this



Is Bisco still worth to use on almost any build? Or since my total currency for now is less than 10c is better to just sold it for 6-7 ex and easly buy any top items for the build?

I have never found one of these and if I had found that one I would sell it in a heartbeat and buy several other pieces for the build, but that is me :)
