I did have a thought that might be the case but im too scared to stand still in case of being 1 hit killed.

the entire point of this build is that with 5-6k ES, adequate defenses (leech, ES regen from scion-occultist, capped res, flasks, etc. etc.) you will be able to facetank most bosses. I haven't played the vanilla version of this build since blight league unfortunately, and my last time playing was in harvest, so I can't tell you exactly what you need to be watching out for when dodging, but at least for most maps that should be sufficient. If you lack survivability, shore up your defensive setups (F&S/steelskin/etc.) and go for more damage int.

Third league that I'm playing WI build, this time a witch.
This is what I got so far:

Going for a Thread of Hope on top to free up some points (just waiting for prices to go down) and a cluster on the right side


I found that this armor is very nice for bumping our leech even higher, Spell Damage covers for lack of Int, and super cheap as 5L this league:



Working safely though yellow maps for now, done some Maven invites - all pretty easily doable.

wow. 18k ES. I am barely 7k and I think it is high. Well into Yellow maps.

What would be the transition steps for cluster jewels?

Right now I got double split personality with Cold core and I got a bunch of other points that aren't really useful. Megalomanic as shown simply doesn't exist in a useful form, so right now I am thinking of going with another cold core on the top right and just slap in 2 normal jewels for int.

Edit: also, 15% intelligence belt synth belts are quite easy to get. Is the immune to ignite and shock really worth it?

'cause you can get an 13-15% int belt for cheap then roll those 51-59 int essences on it, you then double dip with the attribute thingy, pushing it from 15% to 18% and lots of bonus int.

Another Endgame kill for anyone curious:

Awakener 9 Sirus (via the new atlas passives)

any tips on crafting the cluster jewels? I'm assuming we make them with harvest crafting, but skipped that league so not very good at that :/

Start off with alt spamming to get your first set that basically have cold to the core or better.

Then you can alt craft to try to get 2 good nodes and regal. After that, it's probably harvest crafting that is the best.

Yeah that didn't help much ;)
Specific tips on target crafting? Most of the cold damage large cluster mods have the same tags, so how to I target craft them with harvest crafting?

Well, you asked "Any tips on cluster jewel crafting?", this is very broad, so I gave you a broad answer.

Harvest just helps with the chaos spamming. You can improve your odds to craft with Cold modifiers, Cold to the Core has the cold.

With Delve, you can use a combination that removes life,defense and gives "more cold modifiers", this helps you in the prefix rolls to get cold to the core more often since this negates a huge chunk of the prefixes.
