3.18 Kami‘s Uber Tank CoC Cold Reap Inquisitor | HC viable | High Budget | good dps & clearspeed

Many of you already know me from my CI CoC Assassin build guide.

I played the last 15 leagues over 50 different CoC charakter, some had insane dps, some had pretty strong defences. Make sure this build is not unkillable, but its probably one of the most tankiest builds existing in the current league while still dealing dps and have a smooth & fast AoE clear with investment.

The build abuses a few mechanics to get easily hit capped (weapon craft),crit capped(Amulett + Ascendancy) and have Sap / Brittle / Scorch Confluxes while yor two highest Attributes are equal.

Some might even ask if this is possible on a Budget, I never tested it but it could work if you know what you're doing at your own risk. Just dont expect to kill 300% Quant turbo Feared with it on a 5ex Budget. This is more of a League Goal to finish.


Thx to Rudy for the base idea how easy it can be to get crit capped with the amulet and still have juicy defences. Hopefully it wont get nerfed that fast :D

Edit: just checked my aps and I was overcapped, no wonder it felt a little clunky in all the Uber kills, but against that, I forgot to change my ToH for a normal one. So all in all same dps.

Flasks
Spoiler

the magic Sapphire/Topaz flask can be replaced to a Quartz/onslaught Flaks if you can manage to get the missing resistance from somewhere else. Also the bleeding suffix is optional if you have a corrupted blood jewel. Make sure you get weaker if you skip the ele flasks. Depending what you like more, you can swap between bottled faith and Taste of Hate

Jewels
Spoiler

gg for full phys to cold conversion alswell as to get 90% crit dmg reduction. There are other strong mods you can get on these like Life on hit or zealotry pen

pretty op in the Scion wheel wich fixes our attributes and grant as some Aoe and dps

One of the most busted items that pushes our maximum resistance equal to the highest one

Glorious Vanity (Doryani) grants us a bunch of Life as extra ES and fixes our Attributes aswell. Try to get one with 2 good notes on the Str/Dex Note on the Tree like aura effect or spell suppression if needed

For me the best choice to get free Power/Endurance/Frenzy charges

BIS to get some dps and enables Life Leech
alternative
if you can get life leech on glorious vanity, this Cluster would be BIS

if you have some open Sockets

Gem setup
Spoiler
6L CoC setup (Body Armour)

you can swap between increased critical Damage and awakened Area of Effect for mapping if you like

4L Aura Setup (Helmet)

try to lower your Vitality Gem if you have some problems with mana

4L Aura setup (Gloves)

necessary to have your Purity in here to get it to Lvl.23 for more max resists

4L Divine Blessing setup
Unavailable

strong temporary buff

3L Buff & Flame Dash setup


as an alternative for Flame Dash, I would recommend

Pretty nice for instant movement without stopping to cyclone and refreshing our Consercrated Ground.

3L Vortex setup

try to find a good gemlevel your comfortable with while mapping to have enough mana for casting, aswell as keeping arcane surge buff up

Ascendancy
Spoiler
1 Sanctuary
2 Pious Path
3 Augury of Penitence
4 Righteous Providence

Bandits
Spoiler
2 passive points for Endgame or Alira if you need res and crit multi

Pantheon
Spoiler
Soul of Lunaris & Soul of Yugul(depending on belt enchant)

Reap Overlaps for tripple damage
Spoiler
Guide to calculate the AoE overlaps of Reap
https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/vd6ent/complete_guide_to_reap_cascade_overlaps/
so If I'm correct, we can tripple our damage with 3 overlaps, if we stay more than ~10-12 units away from the enemy. This means the sweet spot is between 12 and 22 units where we want to hit the enemie with cyclone

Tried to calculate the setup for Reap and cylone here, hopfully you can understand these pictures :D

you can see here the Aoe of Cyclone and we just barely hit the enemie with cyclone and get 3 Overlaps on enemies

we're getting closer to the enemie and also just get barely the 3 overlaps, if we would get even closer, we only would hit with 1 reap on the boss

this shows our cyclone Aoe, everything between 0-12 units would be bad, between 12-22 everything is fine. Over 22 we wouldnt hit the enemie wich cyclone
This doesnt include hitbox of the enemie to make it less complex :)

Q&A
Spoiler
How to get Cast on Crit to go?
Spoiler
The First thing we need is 100% Accuracy, this is going the be easily solved with the Bench Craft "Hit's cannot be evaded"
The second thing we need as a CoC build is 100% Crit chance on our melee Skill(Cyclone). To solve this problem we only need Leadership's Price with balanced Intelligence and Strength aswell as the Inquisitor Ascendancy Righteous Providence. These things allow us to have permanent 100% crit chance on the melee attack aswell as the spell we are triggering
The third thing would be the correct % cooldown recovery rate aswell as the correct attacks per second. In this build I only recommend to go for atleast 14% Cooldown Recovery Rate aswell as a maximum attack speed of 7.57. The Cooldown Recovery Rate is going to be easily soled with an awakened CoC gem Lvl.3 or higher.
For the Attack speed we have a bunch of different options like weapon, rings, onslaught, action speed, Passive Tree are all good ways to get attack speed

Why Reap?
Spoiler
since Reap was introduced, I wanted to try as a CoC build, sadly back in the days you couldnt get Blood Charges on triggering it. But since 2 patches its now possible to get em witch doubles the dps. Reap has In my opinion good Clear Speed, dps aswell as not much screen clutter for a CoC build. The great synergy from Inquisitor for the regen also alow us to use Reap withut worring much about our Life.

How do we get all these juicy defensive stats?
Spoiler
- 90% max res
Spoiler
Melding of the Flesh + a Lvl 23 Purity of Lightning + Aura Effect + 3% max res from Amulett and Shield

- 23% Phyiscal to Elemental damage conversion
Spoiler
Helmet Bench Craft + Taste of Hate

- 23-30 flat phys reduction
Spoiler
up to 8% on Body Armour + 16% from 4 Endurance Charges + 8% on a str/int shield base

- up to 90% crit damage reduction
Spoiler
60% from Determination Watcher's Eye aswell as 30% from Passive Tree Mastery Note

- 4k net EHP regen
- 1.2k Life leech
Spoiler
Doryani's Lesson on a Large Cold Cluster Jewel

- ~max Block with Glancing Blows
Spoiler
Shield attack Block, Tempest Shield and some passive Tree Notes and Body Armour implicit should cap mostly your Block Chance

- 5% Life on Block
Spoiler
Synthezised shield implicit

- 100% Spell Suppression
Spoiler
21% from Boots, Gloves and Helmet
34% from Body Armour
13% from crafted Shield mod
6% from Glorious Vanity Mod in passive Tree (can take some divines)

- Curse Immune
Spoiler
75% reduced curse effect if you have Consecrated Ground + 30% from Pantheon

- 100% Elemental Ailment Avoidence
Spoiler
35% from Essence Mod on Boots aswell as 23% on the Boots implicit, 40% from Passive Tree

How about LowLife with Petrified Blood?
Spoiler
could work, but due to lack of time currently, I cant test it extensive

Why stay at max 7.57 aps with @14%+ CDR and not aim for 10.1aps @52+ CDR?
Spoiler
I tested It, boots would be for most people to hard to craft with all the needed stats. Also we would need a bunch of more attack speed on the build aswell as sacrificing even more Life to cast it more often.

Yeah, that was really strong as F, had really high single target and clearspeed. And defences werent too bad either. Glad you liked it
First of all, this build is looking really nice.

"
Note: mostly min/maxed, Taste of Hate somehow messes up the max. EHP Hit taken


Taste of Hate is 15% of phys taken as cold. Thats why your cold maxhit is going down and with it the effectiv health pool.

Would use a bottled faith with max damage on conc ground. Is more damage and not mingeling with your ehp.

Ah ok, make sense. But all in all we should be tankier with a taste of hate against phys hits. The problem is that pob only counts armour against small hits and not about uber shaper slams, where some flat phys reduction aswell as conversion would help to mitigrate them.
Thought about aswell of an bottled faith, but hadn‘t got time so far to play pob warrior
I believe taste of hate conflicts with other sapphire flask (Taste of hate doesn't get 70% increased effect of flask from enchantment). If you add that enchantment on ToH, the EHP change is very small.

Might be its PoB bug only, however without in game testing, once will never know.

Added some stuff, I think 80% of the guide should be done now.
If there are any questions, just leave a comment :)
Is mageblood required for this build working?
