Can you link again those guides to craft Helmet/Shield?
I remember you posted it once but has been a while, couldn't find them.
Thanks!
Helm:
Awakened Orb a 86 Elder/Shaper bone helm with either a Elder or shaper other helm to get double influence. Try to get an already enchanted bone helm if you can.
Then just spam Frigid + Bound fossil until you get something good.
Shield:
Crafting the shield is extremely expensive and hard.
1. Get a Cold Attuned Buckler Base and Redeem slam it -> Alteration craft for minimum 2 frenzy.
Buy any other crusader shield with Ilvl 80+(not sure about Ilvl) and alteration for minimum 2 Power charges.
2. Awakener orb them together and pray.
You're looking for 1 free suffix. That's all. If you don't get a free suffix, go back to step 1.
3. If you get a free suffix, craft suffixes cannot be changed for 2 ex.
If you have full prefixes, harvest craft reforge keep suffixes until you get 1 free prefix.
4. Aisling slam and pray that it gives you a Veiled Suffix.
If you get a veiled Prefix and Suffixes cannot be changed is left -> Orb of Scouring and go back to step 3.
If you got a veiled prefix but removed suffixes cannot be changed -> craft suffixes cannot be changed again -> Orb of Scouring -> craft suffixes cannot be changed AGAIN -> Repeat step 4.
5. If you got a Veiled Suffix, unveil it and pray that you got 7% double damage.
If you didn't get double damage on your suffix -> Go back to step one.
Throw enough currency at the shield and you will have these suffixes:
2 minimum Frenzy, 2 minimum Power, 7% double dmg.
Now the hard part is out of the way:
Reforge keep Suffix harvest craft the shield until you get 1% damage per 1% block or 40% elemental dmg with attacks (Or both if lucky)
Finish the shield by crafting 8% cold damage as extra Chaos.
The cheap route of crafting the shield basically is to just stop after awakener orbing, craft either 5% double dmg or 8% cold -> chaos dmg and stay with a 3 mod shield.
Working on this shield now! Is there anything special we need to do in POB for brittle? I made the item in POB and losing out on 1 frenzy/power charge actually tanked my DPS by a lot even with the 8% cold as extra chaos damage.
Edit: I just crafted my first shield. I think I'm going to stick with it for now, because it looks like a huge upgrade. I basically have replaced lifetap with determination on my wand now, so I can continue running it. I think I'm going to save up for a divergent determination, because that seems to be substantially better, just expensive for now. The build is feeling really nice right now!
thank you for this amazing build, I really like it.
May I ask you to check my PoB and maybe give me some advice on where to go next? Is there anything I can do better minion/gems or passives wise? Also can you tell me my current DPS pls? :D I dont know how to use PoB in this way.
Im trying to go more tanky way for endgame, because sometimes I get one shotted if I rush room full of mobs first before my minions do :) I've spend all my ex on this build and now have like 1,5 ex left and need to farm more.
What items should I be running on my animate guardian?
Thanks!
kingmaker, gravebinds with ele weakness curse, inpulsa, helm with -25% enemy resistance, +1 curse shoes
I finally switched to golems in helm but... my armor was not good colors for SO so i play 4x crushclaw now, it is not extremely worse but i can feel it with these gems
I find them to be quite slow, but then i do not use convocation and that might be the magic trick to making them feel good.
I feel pretty, Oh, so pretty,
I feel pretty, and witty and gay,
And I pity Any girl who isn’t me today!
So, I've invested a lot into making my character an ultimate unit for the Simulacrum (Wand, boots, shield, one of the rings). In a single test run yesterday at night I found out that even on the 27th wave monsters do not pose a serious threat for me.
My problem now is the the DPS calculation. According to PoB, I barely have 15kk mapping DPS, which is obviously incorrect. I've added flat crit from Brittle to the calculations, I were not able to figure out how to add Hydrosphere interaction. Can someone help me to make the numbers correct ?

P.S. is Hydrosphere really that good for us, when Carrion Golem has only 1 AoE attack ?

Not an expert but does your POB calculate elemental equilibrium?

Probably someone else could help you way more, since I am not a POB mastermind, but theres a few things:
1) IDK how this works in Simulacrum, but you have SO in your chest, and I think thats a good AOE already. Try using Awakened Elemental Damage with Attacks in your Helmet instead of Melee Splash.
2) If you are really interested in more DPS, swap Bone Offering for Divergent Flesh Offering, gives you 30% more damage. Your helmet buff gives you a plus to that.
3) You're missing the buffs from your Primal Crushclaw (I didn't find it at least).
Can't help you with Hydrosphere. But those changes will give you a total DPS of 35m DPS.
