Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Yeah, best thing will be saving up for a Darkscorn. They are a little over an exalt now and you don't need it 6-linked. You need to have a high chaos resistance when you get it.

I would also get rid of the mana flask. It seems like such a waste as a Pathfinder. There are two routs you can take. Either get the - mana cost of skills on the chest, or take 1 mana leech node near Swift Venoms. Maybe also change your Cinderswallow Urn for another with reduced mana cost of skills. I have such a flask and the mana leech node and have no mana issues with 141 unreserved mana.

When you have your new flaskslot you can use a Jade flask with curse removal and a Quicksilver flask for mapping and for big bossfights like guardians you can switch in the Sin's Rebirth flask and Atziri's Promise.

Playing this build and have invested a good bit into it, however I feel completely useless. I do no damage, can't kill Betrayal Syndicate mobs, and the damage is pretty low.

Here is my PoB https://pastebin.com/LWKWXhGC (Using Community fork 1.4.170.2) - what am I doing wrong and where can I improve? I need a new ring and amulet but everything else is pretty much the same as in your PoB.

Using an ES chest piece because it was affordable and had the stats I needed, don't have 6ex for an Evasion chest atm.

Think I might just quit the league, it's not very exciting anyway.

Wondering what I can do to improve ST dps. Build feels tanky and I think I can get to close to 5.5k with 2 more jewels and a few life nodes. My timeless jewel has fucked over my Art of Glad node so I might need to detour to an accuracy cluster if I can't get it o a possible quiver.

looking for advice on how to upgrade. have 3 ex and about 350 chaos on me right now
level 89 right now



appreciate the feedback

This might have been mentioned already but Harvest makes it really easy to get the -Mana Cost roll on a warlord base as it's considered an "Attack" roll.

It's also a guaranteed roll as it's the only attack roll on a chest so get those Vivid seeds and start rolling :D

When the POB and this forum thread contradict each other with items or so, I should follow the POB, is that right?

Or is the forum post more up-to-date?

Ok, thanks.

At one point the forum thread recommended Penetrating Arrow Quivers while the POB had Broadhead Arrow Quivers for example
That was last season though

Yea, now both post and PoB have penetrating. You can use broadhead if you want for more damage, its fine.

As its the only attack roll (and phys taken as fire damage is the only fire prefix) it'd be better to target something rarer first, like so:

1. Get ilvl 85 warlord base

2. Use perfect fossils to roll for quality, if desired

3. Alt-spam for "gain an endurance charge every second if you've been hit recently"

4. Augment and regal. If you hit stun/block recover as a standalone suffix or +dex or reduced attribute requirements consider returning to step 3 with a scour. Or try to annul it off.

5. Augment an attack modifier into an empty suffix spot.

6. Remove any physical or defense prefixes. This can be done via harvest mods of remove physical/defense mods or even a suffixes cannot be changed + scour but that's pricey.

7. If there is an open suffix craft a suffix (any non-fire suffix)

8. Augment a fire modifier - gives physical damage taken as fire. Use remove a fire/add a fire as needed to hit T1 (50% chance)

9. Augment then add/remove life until you are happy with the result

10. (Only if you have an open suffix- you might not!) craft a lightning or cold resist. Then use remove a light/cold mod to add a light/cold mod. Or just block your prefix and add a light/cold mod via augment. If you want fire resist i suggest rolling light/cold to a high tier then use remove a light/cold resist to replace it with a similar tier fire resist.

11. Craft on %life or spell dodge in the final prefix slot. You are finished!

Looks like so:



(So that post turned into a bit of a guide. Thedeathbeam - if you want an updated step by step for harvest crafting a warlord chest feel free to add it. Much stronger than ye old fossil crafting imo)
