For what it's worth I've been using Brine King for my major god, then can run ele reflect maps easily with the Yugul soul or just using the 5% to evade attacks one. Dunno what to upgrade, I've got four divine vessels lol.

I'd upgrade the frost immunity on brine king for sure. Ryslath if you do lab, I guess, and Arakaali is good against chaos bosses.

I have completed all content with Frost Blades last league and this league I've done Uber Lab and all T1-T16 maps including all Guardians. Haven't bothered to kill Shaper but I'm sure I could just slap on an Abyssus and kill him with no problem just like last league. Anyone having issues is playing badly or your gear is bad or you are underleveled. It is true though that this build is not so cheap anymore. I only recommended this build last league because relative to the cost it was very strong. Now this build is just average for its cost in this meta imo.

You got 75 all res?

Kajean, i see ur char and tree... and my question is Iron Reflexes give more survivability?

Any tip for Pantheon for mapping T1-T15 and for Guardians and end game content?

Tnx and hf.

I use Kaoms Roots in my variation so I can't evade at all. iron Reflexes converts all the useless evasion I have into armor.

For Pantheon, the Brine King is generally the best for most characters but I have stun and freeze immunity with Kaom and Raider ascendency. The Luna and solar Pantheon are both still bugged and don't work right. So I use the remaining major Pantheon that gives dot damage reduction and chaos res for dot damage.

Minor god I think you must run the reflect damage reduction.

And to the other poster, I have capped res but I have Alira Bandit. Eventually you spec out of that when your gear is OP but mine is not.

To people complaining about how to get currency, two words. CHAOS RECIPE! Collect ALL the rares you get if you can, keep a mental tally of what you're low on and collect those first. It's usually going to be the amulets and rings.

I will try after remake my tree to Iron Reflexes. How much armor did you get? And physical reduction?

Ha I wouldn't necessarily dive into copying anything I'm doing. This whole Iron Reflexes thing was a recent idea I got from some other person's tree. I have 6000 armor, which is not very much, but it's better than the zero defenses I was running before with Kaom's Roots. The only other source of physical reduction I have is Taste of Hate, which is pretty OP.

Edit: The "Physical Damage Reduction" stat on my sheet says 38% reduction. However, that number is dubious at best because armor damage reduction is not a flat % damage reduction at all in this game. It depends on how much damage the hit does and it gets worse at mitigating it the harder the hit is.

I read last 30 pages and noone wrote, what jewels you using? I mean other from fight for survival

So after 1 week i reached level 90 with this build, here are my feelings about it :

Pros

- Super fast & furious gameplay
- Godlike clearspead
- Clear all content
- Good league starter
- 600K DPS with Starkonja's, close to 1M with abyssus fully buffed.

Cons

- You will need around ~5ex to clear all the content in the game if you don't you will probably be stuck around T12.
- SC build, unless you modify heavily the OP's tree
- You will get OS if you don't pay attention after T12
- You will need some skill to achieve all content (no faceroll)
- Not an end game content farmer (Uber lab, T16, T17)

Here's my gear & links :



I still need a taste a Taste of Hate in the rotation.

Overall it was a good experience and the build allowed me to stack a lot of currencies. I would reccommend.

Thanks for the build OP it was fun !



Feel free to ask questions i will be lurking for a few days.

Edit : My tree

At Tiers 9 i died so easy by bosses, dunno what im doing wrong, following the guide and i've close 71k dmg with frost blades. Res 75 75 75, any suggestion what to change?

Any recomendations for unique items for leveling maybe Tabula Rasa? How about cheap weapons for it?
