Sorry, I've been trying to level and gear a Slayer Elehit, I wasn't really looking through this thread all weekend. It looks like you swapped Zealotry with Discipline to reserve all your mana. I'm a bit skeptical on the upside of that aura with a chaos DOT curse build, because we are not a crit build, and we also don't have extra synergies with conc ground (when compared to say Inquisitor). Lemme know how that change feels, it's definitely not BAD especially when it's "free". I don't know the exact total ES you're trading away, but I'd agree the benefits that come with Zealotry are at the very least comparable to what you're trading away.
If you could get enough resist on a rare boot that has similar specs to the Atziri Step, you might be able to combo Mark of the Shaper with an elder resist ring. That would have alot more impact on your power than anything you can do with mana reservation. Although finding a boot that fits that mold might be hard, so a 10ex malevolence watchers could also be the next logical step.
For me personally, I kind of drew a line and said my build is strong enough as is, I'm gonna stop sinking money into it for now. I did craft a few elder rings and I think I can just throw on a Mark of the Shaper right now, at the cost of 1 skill gem cuz I'd lose the unset ring, and also lose some chaos res. But ED is so powerful even without min/maxing like crazy, I haven't bothered lol.
I don't think there's a way to make ED+Cont efficient at doing the Emblem battles, and if you want to do that it's gonna be better to make a specialist character for that purpose. If you're crushing delve, alva temple, and T16 monoliths, which you probably are, then congratz, you built your character well. :)
Thanks for the reply. Yeah, Zealotry doesn't seem to impact my build at all that noticeably, none moreso than when I had discipline in that slot. As is, he build is very strong, and I'm quite happy with it - though if i can find "better" boots I might look into messing with my ring slots. But that also means spending currency, and I'm actually having fun just stacking exalts - and might like to try a different build in a couple weeks. Min-maxing the hell out of this would be pretty awesome, but I'm not sure it's worth the investment considering how ultra-strong it already is. I think I might just play around with other auras for now since I have some flexibility there. Cheers!
Basically, yes. There are a few changes you can make depending on the gear you get, but the core nodes and notables are still all pretty much the same.
What slots should I be prioritizing for gear? I've got 20ex to spend and mostly found/cheap gear at the moment and just hit maps.
I'm thinking of grabbing a Devouring Diadem and Atziri's Splendor first for survivability, then looking at a good wand/shield, then fill in the rest with the needed resists and other stats listed in the guide.
Are there other items I should grab right away? This is my first time having a lot of ex to spend (found a good item to sell) and I'd like to take this build to all endgame content.
This is what I am running with so far, and wonder what I should Change. I think my chest could be swapped to something else, but Perfect forms are very expensive on PS4.
Should I switch my staff out for a wand/shield and try to get a 6l chest instead? Im lvl 84 atm.
I'm running 2 green gems on contagion atm because I can't seem to get enough blue sockets and I am out of chromatics atm.
My budget atm is probably 3ex to fix up everything atm.

Do you think I should switch to perfect form armor? I wana do uber elder, but I feel like I die quite often partly cuz im trash, but maybe I need the dodge %.

Solstice Vigil is pretty good and quite cheap.
Assuming you have 2 slots for Blasphemy/Temporal Chains. I really like how long your various buffs can last during Shaper's Presence.
Hello guys, any tips on what to get for improving dps?
Right now, i have 350k dot dps in hideout. I recently decided to swap out discipline (my ES went from 1.8k to 1.4k) and put on zealotry, which boosts the damage from 300k to 350k dot dps.
This is my gear.
Any tips is really appreciated. I'm still struggling against minotaur (especially). No problems with red elder, nor with phoenix or hydra even with bad mods (though the battle is too long).

Sounds neat, but aside from me not being 100% sold on Zealotry I'm pretty content with my dual curse setup as is. The build clears fast enough that I have a pretty solid uptime on most things. I can see the benefit for bossing with that amulet, but I don't want to mess around with my gear any more than I have to at this point, considering how strong the character already is at the moment. Good suggestion though!
