[3.x - Discontinued for now] Burning Spectres - Torch the Atlas - HC Shaper, Elder, Uber Atziri
|
After having tinkered again in PoB, by incorporating Advancing Fortress and a single Reckless Defence jewel in the build, I ended up at 71% Block/67% Spell Block, which you could push up to 75% Block/75% Spell Block with Rumi's Concoction.
You can easily pick up a fifth jewel socket with the 3.1 tree. This also leaves you with 4 jewel sockets with which to pick up additional Dexterity, increased life, minion damage, minion life and what have you. It seems like this would entail the least sacrifice to the build's capabilities. Here's the results of my latest tinkering https://pastebin.com/q8kCg9MY Last edited by Generic_PC#7793 on Mar 1, 2018, 6:08:32 PM

" I think another reckless defence would be better than taking a flask slot with rumi that would probably not have 100% uptime on endgame bosses anyway, and the additional jewel would place you to 75/75 too. Or are your other slots occupied by anima stone and primordials? In that case rumi might be better than investing 3 passive points, though it's at least debatable. |

" You're right in stating that 100% flask uptime on bosses is far from guaranteed, which is why I stated that you COULD use a Rumi's to push it up to the maximum. 71% Block/67% Spell Block is already close enough to the build's original capabilities (70% Block/69% Spell Block). Of course, I still took your suggestion to add a second Reckless Defence jewel into account and ended up with 74% Block/75% Spell Block, so it does work better than my fix. At that point though, it's more a matter of striking a balance between getting a fourth rare jewel and the loss of block chance, which comes down to individual preference.

Hi, I would like to thank for the build, thanks to it I was able to do for the first time all the heads of the end of the game and I will create it again in the new season.

One suggestion (assuming it's not buried in the massive number of posts here!) for the AG.
Southbound gloves provide up to 16% increased maximum life. I use it on mine. Good for survivability. |

" Are u planning to run pure 4 TVs and 1 stone golem to clear even trash content on maps? Also what about AG? Btw, can smn explain does it good to use skill tree with some ES passives and using Spirit offering instead of bone? Seen some videos and its looked not so bad. Smn even told SO > BO and gives more survability even after the nerf of Mistress of Sacrifice. Last edited by omgree#6588 on Mar 1, 2018, 8:38:25 PM

" I think it sort of comes down to avoiding damage altogether (through blocking) rather than out regening it. IGN Beastiary AwGeezRick

"Both of these are viable. High block avoids the damage entirely. SO with the right setup can outregen the damage you take through your ES - however, it won't help with large Chaos damage hits, so there are certain maps / boss combinations that you will need to be really careful around.

"Correct. Although the debate on whether rare gloves with resists and life end up being more effective isn't decided. :) Not terrible math to figure out, I just don't think anyone has bothered. Bottom line is either setup with minion life / fortify / empower will likely make for an immortal AG. Current league IGN: Teldra_Anc_LAD

"For someone who hasn't played the build, you're dead on. The only thing I'd add is the option of dropping block entirely. Probably not a great plan in Hardcore, but in Softcore you could run Necromantic Aegis from the tree and combine that with a couple different shields... Tukohama's Fortress, Midnight Bargain, and drop one gem in your Spectre 6L for Increased Duration should give you 5 Tukohamas Vanguards casting 10 totems. Damage would be pretty crazy, and you'd survive mostly by killing anything before it has a chance to land a hit. Or, you could run Necromatic Aegis, Victario's Charity, and Solar Guard spectres. This would clear content so damn fast you'd only have to worry about very high tier red map bosses - and would probably be safer than the first option due to SGs targeting range. There's a LOT of flexibility in this build. We're going to demonstrate that in the first few days of the league, I suspect. Current league IGN: Teldra_Anc_LAD
