Hello sorry if I keep posting a lot but I cant contain my excitement over this new setm up im using. Im finally surviving FPS lags of doom and found a whole new level of survivability. I actually think I may even make it to 100 even doing usnafe content lol. This is my new boots set up

With berserk active it is 90% less phys damage and 50 % less elemental damage while online. Coupled with the builds 75% dodges , 30% avoids and 45 -60 % evade you will be unkillable unless with major misplays.

Anomalous call with 3 endurance charges and CWDT with enhance support means uptime is nearly doubled with low cooldown as well

I also found new tech for righteous fire since it can be shut off with a flask that removes burning.

I open up conquerors with flasks, vall blight, vaal rightoes fire , righteous fire and ed on the first second and face tank with blight. They literally die in 2-3 seconds. Not bad for a non bossing build.

I can also maintain RF as long as there are packs to essence drain. Its quite funny i managed to do a whole stage without turning it off. Have a try :)

Iv been using wep switching and I think it is pretty OP, you just have to get used to that mechanic. I have other bow that I use as statstick to boost my blight dmg, + it self cast despair, flame golem with culling strike. Also in bow setup I use my wither totems because I dont need them for mapping. You just apply ED and than switch wep for more dmg, totems etc.

This is my gear, still not perfect but i think it is enough for this league. Very fun build to play.

Thank you for the guide, I have a lot of fun atm playing this build.
I have a question - have you tried adding cluster jewels to boost damage or defenses? If yes - can you please share pob with tree and what would be good cluster jewels?
Also, what do you think about 1hand+shield setup with max block and life/es on block shield? Which build theoretically would have better survivability?

if you want to abuse this, putting a 6L Bane in your offhand bow also works.
You should probably use your main bow as a gem level statstick, as almost all other modifiers don't work when the bow is in offhand. Still. I don't recommend it because it's extremely clunky, and the fact that dots stay when swapped out seems not intended at all.

I'd just recommend 1 cluster jewel like mentionned in the guide. There's been a few setups proposed where a large cluster would outdamage athrophy, but it's just very difficult to pull off.
There's so many efficient passive points next to our tree, cluster jewels aren't that big of a deal of this specific build setup.

From a pure theorical defensive standpoint, you shield + wand is tankier than this setup, yes. You'd want to go CI + glancing blows, it's a different setup alltogether really.
The thing is, the damage really sucks. You'll be missing out on 5 gem levels, and your blight will do half the damage. In juiced content like 100% deli, you just won't be able to clear it at all, as everything will take forever to die. You also allow much more room for bosses to hit you. ED already has a low damage ceiling, removing half of it for a slight defensive boost isn't a great idea.
That said, the point of CI is mostly that it hits its defensive powerspikes very early, compared to this build guide that explains how to minmax a character through a whole league.

That said. If somehow you can get a +4 hyrri's, it's "possible" to go wand + mistwall, giving you absurd defences. You'll still loose a third of your damage (still a bit more than going CI), but you'll get absurdly tanky for maps and bosses. Don't do 100% deli using mistwall though, you'll still get overwhelmed and possibly die.

If you want more tankyness, my main advice is to get more life. 6k is a good endgame goal. 6.5k is pushing it with god harvest crafted gear and such.
I'm sitting at 7k life and 2k es on my standard character (no legacy gear). With very high dodge, wind dancer, berserk, and ED's regen, there's very little that can kill it anymore. Good damage means the least time for mobs to hit you, and since ED doesn't have hit/stun/freeze mechanics, it's really important. CHeck out my standard toon, I think it's almost 100% maxed to where I want it to be to run all content the smoothest.
