Really loving this build, thanks for the amazing guide. Just one question, I have followed the POB to the letter (currently lvl 90) and I dont have enough mana reserved for Wrath, Zealotry and Dread Banner. I can have the two auras no problem but there's just not enough leftover to cast Banner.

Any idea what I might have done wrong? I definitely have all the nodes that reserve extra mana.


Thanks!

Can you send me your PoB?

Sure thing!

I know it's been spoken of back and forth while you're putting the wheels on it, but. I've been thinking of trying the PoH build before I 6L my delve chest, and I wanted to ask if you've worked the specifics out a bit since you've had more time to test it?

How much tankier is it than the original, block and ES with MoM+Diadem vs Acro, I believe?

Is the extreme AoE increase mostly just a safety thing, or does it lend itself well to map clear times?

And most importantly... how big a drop in DPS do you estimate? I'd like to be terribly tanky, but losing even 30% DPS would probably hurt alot. For me personally.

The build is pretty much done. There are a few things that could be tweaked further, but I don't want the build to become an unobtainable showcase build that no one can realistically get (so no timeless jewels).

I would say the tankiness is roughly the same as wand + shield. The total block value is less than the dodge value, but there is more eHP* and the spectres have more AOE coverage, so more things die at once. With the eHP, because it's MoM based, any chaos damage is going to go straight through, so I'm sitting at 6k HP with regards to that. For everything else, I get an extra 2.5k ES. Diadem seems to have a high chance to proc it's ES recharge, so it feels like being at 8.5k most of the time.

One this I haven't added to the build is a Watcher's eye. There are some really juicy choices: mana as extra es, faster start of es recharge, damage taken from mana, es gain on hit, spell block, phasing.

If you're looking for a super tanky version, Uberelite's Pledge build might be more to your liking, but it's more expensive, and he uses a timeless jewel. He's got some armour scaling happening and is using Vaal Molten Shield.

In terms of DPS, it's about the same. Wand + Shield has more PoB DPS, but I feel like Pledge has more consistent in-game DPS due to Greater Spell Echo. Everything dies quickly and I can get a 2min UE kill.

hi m8, and thx for the great build sharing.
Just one question. I got a pair of gloves with aspect of the cat with 4 socket (generosity, zealotry,haste, wrath). Is it worth to cast aspect of the cat instead of zeal or wrath?

As others have said, the buff on Aspect of the Cat doesn't work for minions. So you will lose some spectre damage if you take off Zealotry or Wrath.

But, I actually like it because it gives 15% chance to avoid all damage and 50% reduced visibility. I used it for deep delve in delve league.

Just finished the transition to SD's last night and been playing around a bit with it. It seems i only died when i actually ran out of mana. Wouldn't it make more sense to use a mana flask / hybrid flask instead of the pure life ones? Only been playing around with the build for an hour so not sure if there are reasons why or why not yet.

im trying to follow pledge of hands build,

how do you get the right spectres with that build since pledge of hand makes it cast few more times, so i keep getting spectres that i dont want

Does this help? https://youtu.be/45L0xTzSjCQ

Unequipping your helmet is a really good information. I should start to read everything. Following your build closely and was wondering, why it was so freaking hard to raise spectres, as the desecrated despawn every few seconds making it hard to hit.

Yeah. I sometimes forget to take the helmet off and Feast of Flesh eats the corpses before I can raise anything!

hi. thank you for answering my previous question. I have another question. do you think vis mortis will be better with pledge of hand or rare chest with extra curse will be better?

Any way to deal with elemental reflect on map, or I just have to use sextant for that? Tks
