How is everyone assigning skills to their keys? I keep running out of available keys. :( Are you assigning something to LMB?

Can you add something like the order of upgrades, and maybe some super late game stuff?

" 1- General's cry created warriors hit any enemy, you get fortify if you have 'The Vigil' jewel on tree with 40str nearby. Desecrate is for bosses where there are no bodies otherwise. 2- I'm also curious about manaregen. I switched @4.7k mana to MoM, but no Agnostic so far. | |

Guys check the PoB, there you find all the gear progression and what to aim for. Read the first post and check the PoB, most question will be answered this way.

Hey, the build feels great so far, but I've noticed I'm barely even proccing Elemental Overload as Blade Blast can't crit at all.
Is this intended or should I focus a bit more on crit chance? | |
" 1. yes you would self cast it with vigilant strike + Ancestral + faster attacks 2. depends on the player, you should only be using your enduring mana flask for one of three things A. Ultimatums and packs during clear B. Recovering from big hits hits or shotguns when you are likely to be hit again or take more damage back to back C. big burst phases where you abuse your cast speed with Sigil + cloak + and VRF if it's up. You DO NOT need to be using your flask during boss fights when DPSing outside of your burst as your mana will naturally regenerate at a reasonable pace with tree mana regen alone. Now, some solutions would be crafted regen on weapons, and gear as well as a Clarity Watcher's Eye. You will never be at the point where your mana doesn't get eaten through when spamming BFBB because archmage has a flat % cost that you simply cannot sustain no matter how much regen you have so you will have down time. When that downtime occurs, it is totally up to you. Now to answer the initial question, when you get to the point where you feel you can handle more mana degen and keep disciplined enough to not chug through your mana flask on things like sirus or uber elder that's when you'd swap to agnostic. While this build is absurdly tanky it is not meant to face tank. We abuse a lot of the most broken layers in PoE to have very strong defensives combined with insane damage in a hardcore setting, we sacrifice QoL and care-free gameplay in order to achieve this by carefully playing around our mana pool. The more practice you have on the build, the more comfortable you will become working around your mana and understanding how to utilize your mana so that you don't put yourself in rippy situations where you're tanking damage while you have 10% mana or sacrificing DPS windows because you don't have enough mana. Sorry for the long winded explanation but this was intended to clear up multiple questions/confusion in one go throughout the thread. |

" You're not using the recommended gem setups for one and you're running two life flasks and two mana flasks with a quicksilver. Last edited by ChemistHCSSF on Apr 18, 2021, 7:38:00 AM

" you're using a bow with lightning trap, your damage would be incredibly bad. You use vendor recipe wands, vendor a magic wand + 1 alteration orb + one rare resistance (ruby/sapphire/topaz) and you'll get a wand back that had added fire/cold/lightning damage to spells. This is enough to take you into maps. |

" it should be proccing off of blade fall fairly often. |
