[3.5-3.12 + 3,18 HC] Pure Herald of Agony Jugg. All content. Videos+Link to 3.14 & 3.15 Updates
Nice Kill :)
We're working our way through - just hit maps last night. A kind soul in Global 820 donated a ton of maps to us to keep our XP relevant. Gear in spoiler. I've opted to stack 4x Pure Agony / Disciple Jewels, 2x Blessed, 1x Anti-Venom, 1x Calamitous Visions.

Got the core pieces and am working towards a sick helmet now. |

I think I may have managed to win the helmet Crafting Game:
(I know, I know, "no life, no res, better vendor . . . ." :> -O |

" Hey just made this build in SC. Got everything except the Helmet craft with extra lightning. Just a couple of questions With the helmet why are we looking for converting phys dmg to extra lightning? I have managed 3 pure agony +cult leader cluster gems along with Calamitous visions. Still feel like lacking boss dmg. Not sure what i am missing. |

A solid helmet wants to be at least a 6 link of some kind. (I think we spoke in game and your issue was that you only had a 5L helm--continuing to explain for the benefit of anyone else reading this)
Our 6L helm can involve any combination of at least two of: A. +2/3 minion gem levels B. Supported by minion damage, and C. the insanity essence craft (50% phys added as lightning). Rolling on an Elder helm gives the possibility of item B. We craft by either rolling with bound fossils or with insanity essences. For myself, I decide this strictly based on price. Right now I am crafting with insanity because they are cheaper. Insanity also allows us a very small chance of getting a 7-link, like the one in my post above. I've only had one the one time, and it is not a requirement for the build. Hope that clears things up. As a side note, Just did my first HC Sirus (lvl 5). 3 pure agonies, +3/insanity helm, 7.3k life. No significant problems. Now to try to get him to lvl 8 . . . . -O Last edited by Orion72#3803 on May 5, 2020, 10:28:44 AM

"Thanks for the advise.Learning new things everyday :-) I changed the helm[+3 & minion dmg] and added awakened vicious proj to the socket. Just completed A8 sirus successfully with 1 death. Took a bit longer in the last phase, that is to be expected. Still level 90, i think when i get to 95 and add another cluster jewel, the dmg will be good enough for most of the things. |

Today's fun option for this build:
Replace arctic armour with Aspect of the Spider Replace Withering touch with Maim. Damage dips only slightly and the movement speed on the mobs slows to a crawl. Makes deliriums much more mellow. -O |

well I updated and decided I needed to move over to cold iron points...so i'm veering a bit. Did hit an ok Elder hat in like 10 insanity essences.

Looks like a solid set up. CIP version also very fun--Go get em!
-O |

Hey build looks awesome going to give it a go in HC next league! Only question is will the quillrain version be viable next league if cluster jewels aren't here to stay?
| |
Short answer is no, but I cannot fathom clusters not going core in some fashion. Skills like Hoag have now been literally rebalanced around their existence. So I would place a heavy bet on this build being viable for next league.
In other news, I killed Sirus at lvl 8 today in practice. I didn't do it detahless--it's only _mostly_ facetankable, but I have determined (for your benefit) that the you don't really want to stand on the ground effects when they explode . . . . That said, with good gear and even a little bit of care and practice, Sirus level 8 should be farmable, even for hc. was the souvenir. -O Last edited by Orion72#3803 on May 12, 2020, 10:35:06 PM
