[3.10] Heraldry Cluster Guardian - 9k Es | 90% all res | 75% block | 10M+ boss dps
any ideas on what to upgrade next? thinking of going unnatural instinct to pick up 4 more points so I can spec a 3rd voices. dps is pretty decent although I could use some more ES (~7500 atm) and ES regen, I'd like to get tankier rather than go for DPS. Im not sure if theres any glaringly obvious upgrades Im missing. have ~65 ex atm. Id appreciate any advice! Last edited by gnarjay on May 1, 2020, 4:31:38 PM

" What is the rationale behind not using a second CotB? | |
" Some simple stuff, really. Bunch of visits to Hillock in Fortification to boost the quality on your armour. Then run him some more in Research to top out your flask quality. Throw a bunch of divines at your Nebulis to get to - or closer to - 20/20/20. Or just buy another one, yours only has a single decent affix anyway. Then the expensive stuff. - Consider upgrading your voices to 5 socket versions. - Consider replacing your amulet with something like this: - For simalucrum runs, I'd seriously consider dropping the speed flask for a Wise Oak - if your uncapped cold resist is highest - or if you can afford it, a bottled faith.

"I'd suggest switching to vitality on an amulet to avoid the entire strength debate. Clarity is only important until you can constantly cast your damage skill. I ran mine at level 8 for most of the time, recently I have spare life, so I leveled it up the rest of the way. If I figure out a way to squeeze in another aura, I may level up another one until it just fits. I haven't run into a situation where you want anything other than Fertile catalysts on your ammy. Chayulas, it boosts the life - ES conversion. Most rares, it boosts your decreased mana reserved. Win in either case. I'd personally go for added lightning damage if you haven't killed anything recently on boots. Which reminds me, I need to run the lab and see if I can fix my boot / glove enchants to something I don't hate. :) I had added lightning damage on my last set, it was a very nice damage boost. For jewels, reduced mana reservation and increased ES are key. Anything else is pure bonus... and also probably really expensive. Useful mods are increased cold / lightning, cast speed flat or with lightning skills, crit strike chance / spells. Current league IGN: Teldra_Anc_LAD

" the chain feels nice in maps,.I saw some people on poe ninja using it so i decided to try it out and havent gone back. i have a second cotb in my inventory for bosses | |
"If I try to turn on all your auras in PoB, I get -44 mana left. So the question is... what are you running, or possibly, what are you not running? I suspect you're going to have to drop Influence on the tree, and the node leading to it, and repath to your right-most jewel socked via the lower path by Charisma. That will let you pick up an intuitive leap jewel in the socket there and grab Charisma, then anoint Champion of the cause instead. Current league IGN: Teldra_Anc_LAD

"When I import this pastebin, I get a result that says you're already over by 335 life and 2176 mana. And it appears there are several of the same gems setup and running? Current league IGN: Teldra_Anc_LAD

I actually have 131 mana rn. I'm using 2 mana/int split personality.

"You're missing at least one large cluster and 2 mediums. I'd absolutely pick up another Voices and 3 more medium cluster jewels, then a boatload of regrets and respec your tree to match the one posted by the OP. Current league IGN: Teldra_Anc_LAD

" Oh I see. I run the same links as you but Arcane Surge instead of Inspiration for EK. When I'm mapping I swap out Arcane Surge for Chain Support and I still have enough DPS for AW8, Wave 20 Simulacrum, etc. I also use this helmet enchant which helps with general clear. I'm going to take a look and see if Snakepit is comparable DPS as opposed to just swapping chain for Inspiration/Arcane Surge for mapping. |
