Yes, I see your point now. Nevertheless, you should consider dropping the node when you can get better gear. Trust me, you will have enough damage for any content in this game once you get your HoAG to a high enough level.
I did Sirus even without Onslaught (still in the process of getting Raise Spectre LVL 21) and he still went down fast, especially for such a tanky build.

Yea, it is definitely worth keeping in mind. It is only 10 regret orbs after all, to go back when I change my mind. Out of curiosity, what awakening level did you do him on? Heard he scales extremely far up the more more levels you have.

Awakening LVL 4 (didn't have any more Watchstones at that moment). As far as I know, Sirus only gets more HP with Awakening levels. Each level give him 3% more HP, so Awakening LVL 4 is 12% more HP and Awakening LVL 8 would be 24% more HP. Very trivial for this build in particular because the boss won't be able to damage you most of the time, the only threat is getting boxed by the Tornadoes.

Holy Shit.. Skin of the Loyal 4EX with 3R/2G/1B xD ^^

Oh wow, maybe a sign that the much tougher endgame steers people to this build. Because I bought mine for 1ex only 2 days ago, and there were a bunch of them at 1ex.

So , this seems a pretty expensive build right now.
Is the build worth it for the actual content? Actual playing an geofris/cala Hoag / herald of purity / holy relic guardian.

Im considering to switch to this build because of the higher EHP.
The damage is still enough for t16 maps?

So, just tried the Awakaner again. We can tank a lot of his attacks and spells, so if you mess up the dodging, there is that to fall back on.

Apart from how absolutely shit the fight is, it is definitely doable without the absolute endgame equip like a good wand or the Watchers Eye, I don't even have Lethal Pride or Empower 4. Or even an Enlighten 3 so I can run Skitterbots or Discipline.

Sadly I wasted 4 portals because of that retarded storm mechanic, whoever came up with that idea desperately needs to have some sense slapped into them, and lost my last one when I had him down to like 5%.

His last phase is an absolute clusterfuck, I swear he spends 95-99% of the time in one of his infinite invulnerability phases. All you can hope for is that one of your Ball Lightnings hits him when he is attackable and then that you have enough Virulence stacks so that the Crawler is still there when he comes out of his next invulnerability phase. Then the Crawler gets in a hit or two and he goes into his next invul phase. Rinse and repeat. Boring as all fuck.

I can say without a doubt, that I will never do that fight again because I want to or becausee its fun. Like Uber Elder. It is a hard fight, but you can learn the mechanics and give yourself a decent chance at doing it deathless and enjoy it... Awakaner is just too much random shit on top of the constant invulnerability. If I do it again, I only do it so that I killed him at least once, and then never fight him again unless he gets some changes making him less of a clusterfuck. Like maybe make him damageable for longer than half a fuckin second at a time?!

Sorry, rant over...

EDIT: Was on Awakening Level 5.

I started the league following this build and so far I am struggling big time.

I reached level 25 but it has been a hassle so far (I am aware of the boss buffs) and am considering to just trash this character and restart with another build (I dont know what).

I am pretty sure I am doing something wrong, but to be honest I think this guide needs a more elaborated guide during early leveling. Current version says you get Agony at 16 and leveling from there is just trivial. I got it at 16 but obviously many of the supporting skills are usable at a later level, so it is far from being trivial. I tried couple of alternatives but to be honest did not bother too much, because currently I feel like "why should I bother that much for just leveling, I can just reroll and go ahead".

As a side note, this is neither my first league nor I faced such difficulty even at my first leveling in the game. Maybe I am not a pro but I do not think I am a newbie as well (could do Uber Elder, Shaper, Guardians, Uber Atziri etc.etc... tons of times with several builds).

Obviously this build is great as that many people cannot be wrong, but I think some more elaboration especially in early leveling would be great.

Thanks...

Im twinked ofc, but levling it now and its a breeze, 40 min and im in act 4. Try to get a quillrain, use rain of arrows with lesser poison, and mirrage archer, at 31 use RoA with both lesser poison and poison, to get stacks up fast. Link herald of agony with minion damage, pierce and one more support as you get a 4l. The agony crawler should prity much carry you from then on as long as you fire off some RoA at mob packs.

@Mecielle
Did you level with Quill Rain till you´ve reached maps ?

Hello thete!
Amazing build! But as you could see it requires low leveling info, it was difficult for me to level my first hogs guardian.

Do we need 4 lvl enlighten to enable skitterbots and hatred? (do not have +1 corrupted gloves)
