No thoughts on Command of Steel? It's a lot of increased, and it might also tilt the balance on which jewels are better (since increased mods have diminishing returns). The other thought is a helm with -fire res, life, and chaos res could be better than Hrimnor's Resolve. It's really only a middling life roll, some cold res, a flask affix, and a middling increased damage roll.


Respected a bit into hp nodes so dropped dualist area nodes so i need to annoint Vigour. But annointing Command of Steel was right move for that setup.

Tried your take, still getting one shot by random stuff, more often than before, which, I know, makes no sense. Also, I'm not sure how you can cast WoC/Stormbrand manually, it feels like channeling (since the cast speed is so horrendously low).

Edit: Now also getting obliterated in maps.


WoC and strombrand for things that don't die from single ignite (mostly map bosses). So i just swap weapons, throw brand, pop discharge and use WoC then wait.
Dunno how you have problems in heist. Most of dangerous things there are slow-mediumspeed area based projectiles, so you can't afford to stay in 1 place for too long. Just pop discharge and run with phasing further.
how do you spawn phoenix now on the new atlas?
#StandardLivesMatter
Zana can sell the maps, high end map bosses (I'm pretty sure it's T14-16) can drop guardian maps, and Zana missions can spawn the map.

Again, I get one shot by almost everything in there. Regardless of what it is.

I got one shot by one of those guys from across the screen, they moved forward to kill my golem. Yes, I removed rumi's, my gear doesn't support Hrimnor's and I need a freeze flask.

Was on full charges btw, and had JUST used my flasks to move again. And yes, I'm aware of the curses on the map.

Your hp is too low maybe? I have 6k life and still die here and there in T16. Max block of course.
How about anoint vigour and spend more point in life? You'll lose ~15% damage though.
I just tested combo Voll's Devotion + romira is better for charge regen, especially when bossing. But we lost +1 endur charge and 4% life regen.

I was trying Krayso's block variant, hence why my hp is so low, I had to path all the way down to Vigour and lost 20% life in the process.
I think the bottom line is, the build is NOT tanky, it's just not as squishy as some builds. I found a cortex in a Zana map and tried, got insta popped before I could even discharge it once, through flasks, 9 endurance, block, etc etc. It's a shame though, I sunk 11 ex into this (respecs, trying different gear, 6l stuff, getting Eye of Innocence) and that was basically the entire currency I've made this league, which left me with a char that can't run maps effectively, can't do league content properly.

How exactly would I do that? Genuine question, I don't know any software to record it (Fraps?) and I literally don't know when the next time I'm going to die is, it could be in 5 mins it could be in 10 seconds.

The easiest way is to use Windows Game Bar (already installed on Win 10, though most people keep it disabled) which will let you snip the last 30 seconds of play with a keyboard shortcut. Nvidia Shadowplay has similar functionality.

Basically you die, hit the shortcut, and get a video that goes 30 seconds into the past. It's actually pretty awesome for analyzing deaths. I used to use it a lot, though now I don't have the time to play enough to end up needing it too much.
I sent you a pm btw.
