If you ever try again, remember to have those two defense in place.
Didn't want to leave on a somewhat sour note and tried getting and playing a bit with 90 (well, 89% to be exact) crit reduction / shock immunity (via flask). What a world of difference or so it felt like. I've run like ~10 rare maps with 0 issues or being anywhere close to death and definitely felt like it's a game changer for survivability. So much that I'd get that crit reduction watcher's eye as soon as one able to run determination.

Trying a certain experimentational juice made me die quite a few times again though, but it wasn't too surprising especially when I was dying vs 3+ of possessed rogue exiles under 50+ empowered apex sentinels. For general mapping and especially in a non-sentinel league I should've felt very comfortable from now on I think.

P.S. Had some more deaths from bleeding too, enough to consider running Steelskin just because of that. At least it didn't felt that bad in a +3 socketed gems unset ring that I used last league for it. And the annoyance from inevitable bleed deaths in some situations makes me think it's worth it. Then again it was probably an issue only because it was those souped up posessed/sentinel'd rogue exiles as a source of it.

Yo i just want to say that your build is great and i play it for about 2 or 3 leagues. However i picked it on Sentinel. I have a problem with damage and survival. I don't know why. Can you say what i can change to get a damage similiar to this on your pob? I picked te mid crit.

I took a look at the POB and found many small things that add up together to be significant.

Regarding damage, the most obvious thing I've noticed is that your crit chance is lower (80% vs 100%). This might be due to your weapon not having crit chance mod. But this is ok for now, because you chose the crit multi and attack speed in your weapon. Also, when crit chance is low, the effect of scaling damage using crit multi will also be less effective. This is another reason. Other than that, the character level, gem level are not at the same level as the midcrit POB.

About survival, the first thing I saw is the 4k+ life pool not being enough for survival. Another thing is the armour differences. These differences will be magnified when pairing with molten shell. The chaos resistance in your build is -38%, whereas the one in mid-crit build is +41%. This is a major difference of survivability on some game mechanics. The flask setup and its mod isn't the same either.

Overall, it seems like you rushed too quickly into a budget level gear without acquiring proper stats on gear. You can temporarily roll back to early crit and make sure the stats of your character all match the POB, then make the next move.

Thanks for answer! That's true i rushed too fast. Also i used the version of the guide for 3.17 But now i know to do and now i will update my gear. Thanks once again!
Been learning a lot in this game trying to make this build work, like how you can't upgrade multi-crafted mods..
But the playstyles definitely worth it. Warbringer node really made this build shine, so I swapped out the master of fire/cremator cluster jewel and got some fire exposure on my gloves in order to fit in the minimum 10 power passive and recover 15% life on warcry passive. Echoes of Creation really needs that that recovery after every hit since I'm running 4 warcries. I have a few ideas on where to go thanks to the guide but if you want to look at the build so far and give me some tips on what I'm doing wrong or what to do next I would appreciate it.

Hello, I followed this guide in ritual, now that I'm back to play it you also used Tawhoa instead of Hinekora. I always thought tawhoa was bad?

Also, I think Tasalio is really really good defense and can mitigate Echoes of Creation damage as well, do you have any thoughts regarding that?

Thanks for the build, will probably play it in BPL!

I was watching again the guide and saw you changed pobs a little bit in terms of skills and tree.

Are those changes actually accurate? I mean, for example, I was following the mid-crit version with Shockwave instead of AFP, and the Totem setup in the weapon.

In other hand I was following the path of having a curse on hit ring and now it seems we are using Assa's Mark on weapon with some banner, and dropping Skitters.

Should I focus in changing that asap? I mean, the whole thing.

Probably while I was saving the pob it was updated here, so I just wanna be sure what to follow from now on.

Sorry if i'm bothering with this.

This is where I'm currently at: https://pastebin.com/mb9UxFT9

This is a fun build. Kinda tricky with some things but it's great. Thanks for the build and the updates through all these leagues :D

Edit: Ok, Awak. Fire Pen give me 2M dps lmao.

Ok fam, help a brother out.

Not really touching my weapon for now. Realize I can realistically put can't change prefix and try a T4 Aisling slam for something and hope it doesn't hit the T2 attack speed. Too many other things need upgraded though. Unfortunately not going to be able to get the hits can't be evaded, so trying to add more accuracy to the build instead.

Here's my upgrade priorities:
1) Divergent Tectonic Slam for the fire damage leech (On PS5 I've only seen one for sale all league so far, and the guy wouldn't give a price even though I threw everything I had at it... ugh)
2) Divergent Pulverize Support
3) Awakened Elemental Damage with Attacks
4) Boots (Haven't had any luck getting life, movement speed and resists)
5) Gloves (I just got my warlord base thanks to a warlord exalt for 1ex)
6) Rings (I've got unset hunter ring I'm re-rolling in harvest for flammability)


Survivability is still sketchy, but way better since I just got the large cluster with overlord and aggressive defense. Not sure how all of the active abilities are supposed to work. I don't have any open ability slots on PS5. I got in assassin's mark with a cast on damage taken.

Clear speed is pretty good, but thinking at this point I'll have to re-roll jewels for life, double resist, and crit multi.

Trying a change that will add 60% reduced damage from crits, and some more life.

Ty for guide ! Any weapon recommendations for leveling? I'm at level 41
