[3.10] Herald of Agony Mana Guardian | 2.5 Minute Sirus 8 | Deathless T19 100% Delirium

This build looks awesome but I have a question regarding no regen maps. How do we regen mana to cast ball lightning? Do you sub in a mana flask or we just reroll?

" Before you can afford CoN you have 2 ring slots and the belt, plus the other sources. Once you go CoN you should also be able to afford decent rares (he mentions in guide its cheaper since you can ignore life rolls on these rares). I didn't pay huge sums for the rare gear I linked a page or 2 back and I have 95/81/80 uncapped resistances respectively. @Kyok I kinda had the same experience, make sure you get a good amount of int such as utmost intellect at top of tree if you can since shapers touch will give you accuracy for intellect. If you don't have shapers touch yet maybe thats another struggle if you are also still using cyclone. Anyway just switch to ball lightning ASAP, way easier and smoother. Tbh you can run it without a +1 wand if you want it's just cold iron point may be better at that point because of hoag levels. But you'll still get the way smoother experience. |

" I picked up a cheap enduring mana flask and I take out 1 aura such as dread banner for a little leeway on the mana. It's really not bad just have to remember to do it. |
|
" Meaning I am porting out of every no regen map to get my neverending mana flask. This build really doesnt give a shit about map mods, so I don't pay attention and only realize it is no regen when I am out of mana :D |

Why do we use Empower L3 when Vicious Projectiles gives the exact same damage increase in PoB for 5% less mana reservation and a lot less currency cost (like a few chaos VS 1 ex for a level 3 Empower)?

" With my build right now Vicious Projectiles would give 18% less damage than Empower 4. Empower 4 is better than Awakened VP. Last edited by Markuchi#5993 on Dec 18, 2019, 9:09:08 PM

" Upto you if you want to carry a 2 slot flask in your inventory so you can not get punished for misreading mods. I think it's worth it personally to just lug around at least for now but yea you can just port out and grab it i guess. |

What golem would you recommend until obtaining +4 spectre summon?

" I was just making a joke about how the build doesnt care about map mods, causing me to not read them. " I went with Stone Golem, some nice extra regen. Could also go with Lightning Golem, helps with Ball Lightning cast speed until you get your wand and can link it with Faster Casting. I really hated how slow it was... Getting that wand to auto-trigger the curse and offering, freeing up Ball Lightning links, really puts the build on another level. On another note: Tested both "Time of Need" and "Bastion of Hope" in the endgame. Imo "Time of Need" is far superior. I barely notice the lost stun immunity, but I do notice the huge recovery from "Time of Need". Has saved my ass in those much more difficult boss fights many times. Maybe before this patch Bastion of Hope was the better choice, but know, after they buffed T15-16 maps and bosses Time of Need truly shines. Last edited by Mecielle#3021 on Dec 18, 2019, 10:26:19 PM

" Hm I think I have to agree. At least it feels like a much nicer playstyle especially during tough metamorphs where sometimes waiting for recharge (and theres often map mods slowing down recharge etc) can be troublesome, Time of Need enables you to get out of bad situations before they even become bad situations quite often as well as directly saving you if the timing works out. Much less worrying about ignites and bleeds etc that cancel recharge. I'll have to keep playing with it to see if the stuns end up messing with me but definitely a nice ascend choice. edit: while ele reflect is almost never a concern, if you have enough density such as with the sextant mods for little convert mobs and a juiced up map with ele reflect it is possible to burst yourself down lol cause BL is strong in that scenario even with our low dps Last edited by lordaverage42#2435 on Dec 18, 2019, 11:43:26 PM
