[3.23 UPDATED] Bergerbrush's Beginner Friendly Death's Oath Occultist

I picked this build for the crucible league ! Can't wait, it looks damn fun!

I'm more into CA for leveling instead of PC for the upcoming league tho, it also benefit more of the league mechanic (even if leveling is... leveling) where you get a tree on weapon

I think CA will be optimal for leveling for sure. But I can't tell right now how bad the PConc changes are.

So I will level with CA myself and see how it is. But I won't be able to update the build much really because I don't have too much time this week.

So I will upload new PoB's for the stages at first, and when I get time I will update leveling and so on :)
So far, I've seen that we're getting kinda nerfed damage.

Endgame Clearing Version lost 1.5m DPS.

Endgame Bossing lost 2.2m DPS.

This is mainly due to removed masteries and big nerfs to Wither Effect.

Another thing that we lost also is free Chaos Resistance in the Skill Tree so now you need to get more Chaos res on your gear. Which can be quite annoying.

Good things atleast are that due to nerfs in other areas, the meta will probably change and some of our build enabling uniques and gear will probably be cheaper!

And PConc nerfs will impact leveling in ways that is either good or bad. Some people dont like PConc and therefor using Caustic Arrow already for leveling will be nice for you. But PConc was incredibly powerful for leveling and that will make it overall worse if we won't use it anymore.



As for changing/updating the Guide, I don't have all the time in the world this week due to school. So I will mainly focus on updating the PoB's for each stage first. And when I get time I will change/update parts of the guide such as leveling skill gems and leveling skill tree's and so on.
I picked too :) Trying it on stnd with unoptimized gear and i love it. Those nerfs i think don't do anything bad for build. I think build have enough damage to clear maps, kill bosses and even end-game content. Plus with new league content i think DPS can get higher with weapons mini tree :)
Yeah and i thinking about too to leveling with CA because of PConc nerf.
Okay ^^ cant wait for the tree changes <3

Thats the one thing, is that they nerf endgame bossing damage. But we get the new mechanic with crazy weapons, which potentially can bring it back quite nicely :)

It's very minor haha :D
Update #1
Sadly we get hit with the nerf hammer for a second league in a row! But looking through everything it's still gonna be a quite good build! So I will leaguestart with it for my 3rd league in a row!

So the final verdict on the changes are...

Need to somehow squeeze in Chaos res in gear
1.2m DPS less on Single Target
Same survivability
Basicly same clear
Lose CB Immunity

Atleast a positive thing is that, due to meta changes, our gems/gear will probably be cheaper and therefor the build will overall be easier to make! :)

Update #2
New Stage 1 PoB: https://pobb.in/z23jQ1nIm6-h

Does Death's Oath self chaos damage count as damage over time? Does Arakaali pantheon work with it?
Lets just hope the bastion of elements forbidden flame jewel doesn't go nuts like it did last league, price was all over the place when i went to buy it and had to snipe one for 18 divines when it was jumping between 20-30 divs.
