what is needed to run 4 auras?

to help with zealotry, I just want to start planning ahead :)

next upgrade will be to get 2 golden oils so I can anoint the amulet.

One mana reservation cluster and possibly Enlighten, depending on which auras you are trying to get.

Zealotry?? That would be pretty low on the priority list. I would strongly recommend Discipline, Flesh & Stone and Aspect of the Spider as the first 3 auras. And then go for Arctic Armour (25%), Skitterbots (35%) or Hatred (50%) as your levels and items allow you to reserve more and more mana.

I got it as it was cheap + had a lot of int on it :D.

I am using hatred, discipline and flesh and stone right now.

That's what makes the alt Arctic Armor interesting. 350ms freeze on anything not immune to freezing.

With a 20% chance, you need the boss to hit you several times in order to freeze it for 350 ms. Even if it stacks with other (global) sources of 'chance to freeze', that still won't be reliable. If you let them hit you multiple times and survive, then why freeze them? They are already chilled, slowed and blinded.

Did you miss the part where you can swap a couple of hundred int to make it 50% chance for enemies to be frozen on hit and then the large cluster noteable that makes anyone frozen by your arctic armor freeze everyone in a 12 radius? (Blast-Freeze)

It freezes everyone around you every time they hit you and if that's not an insane defensive approach to the build idk what is.

Here is an example

https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/iyaccy/anomalous_arctic_armour_is_likely_one_of_the_best/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

Another option is somehow swapping around gems to use arctic armor with enlighten so it can hit 44% quality and that saves us using the unique ring. Although unique ring is cheap and easy option. Without removing any other gems. (Ring gives +30% quality to any gem socketed in it) :)

As for what you said about hatred...can you have a look at my tree and tell me what you would do as I'm running 5 auras at the moment with decent dps.

Would run something other than hatred as a 5th?

Aspect of the spider
Discipline
Hatred
Arctic armour
Zealotry

If I swap zealotry for flesh and stone I get 6 passives refunded on tree.

I managed to score a .6% of spelldamage as leech megalomaniac jewels with 30% discipline reserve for 50c yesterday too 😁

Thanks Kelvynn

Did my first Sirius 8 this league with this build, so late in the league bcs I wasn't mapping at all, was doing mainly heists or leveling the build. Died 1 time on last phase, my fault as I got slowed down and lost out of sight Sirius who sniped me from afar. My jewels are almost in the definitive setup, while my gear is average (besides my helmet), like I am still using astramentis. So I can gain at least 5-8k more es with much better rare gear and I calculated in PoB another 30-40% more dps with really good amulet and more int from gear.

I just uploaded it, wait a bit for you tube to elaborate for better quality

It's mostly in his tree bro, all the fertiles and brute force.

Plus he has the high end jewels. (like 50ex of prismatics/emperors)

Couldn't find a decent cheap watchers eye so bought one with 8% spell damage block while affected by discipline and 15% cold penetration while affected by hatred.

This was probably my bigger single upgrade on PoB..

Another idea I had is getting a watchers eye with "grants arcane surge for 4 seconds when the enemy is affected by consecrated ground from zealotry"

That would free up one socket for a gem on our gloves....then could drop bonechill turning those 2 sockets into arctic armor and enhance LVL 4 which would make arctic armor give a 44% chance to freeze enemies that hit you in a 12 radius.

if i use corrosive elements i can drop WOC/frostbomb?

it has 25% chance to apply cold exposure on hit

i am guessing it will be better then WOC?

got megalomaniac with reduce dicipline mana reserve


increased dicipline aura effect and corrosive elemnts :o

You should be able to figure this out by yourself. Load up the community edition of Path of Building (google search for it.)
