Really loving the build, first time really playing LL and it's been smooth sailing, did A6 Sirius Deathless, my only issue is really doing Simulacrum, feels like at some point at like wave 17/18 stuff doesn't die fast enough and I get inevitably cornered, any tips ?

Since they aren’t normal maps, they switching out lightning pen for another damage gem, maybe ele focus and give yhat a go.

Some of it is just learning the fight and getting more dps to clear quickly.

I'm dying a lot in T14 maps I think it has something to do with my 7.5k Energy Shield pool or just the way I'm currently playing. I can't really get the whole stutter step throwing mines thing down. Can you maybe explain what you're doing and possibly help me out with my gear? I've been looking for a Weapon upgrade but everyone wants way to much for their +1 Lightning and Crit strikes. I have 3 Ex to spend.

Gear is looking good. I can try and record a video on stuttering if you want this weekend.

As far as upgrades, more ES will go a long way. Check cluster jewels and switching up rings might lose you some dps but gain ES if you want to go that route.

I'm using a Energy from naught cluster jewel but I'm still sitting at 7.5k I know my boots can use another 80 energy shield but I can't find any with the right resists + aspect of the spider. I may go with 2 moonstone rings but even then I'm only looking at 200 more energy shield. Please do make a video on stutter stepping, it would help tremendously. And thank you for taking your time to answer all these questions <3

That 200 flat will translate into over 1200 ES though

I just did A8 Sirus deathless on a 7.1k enery shield pool.

There are two big upgrades that I dont think are emphasised enough on how important they are in my opinion.

1.) Helmet Enchant - Ball Lightning fires an extra projectile
2.) Dying Sun Ruby Flask

These will boost you up soo much ull burn through everything in the map.

To give you an example, when you stutter step in ur current condition you throw out 1 BL per mine. With those, ull throw out 4 BL's per mine which also improves the stutter step playstyle.

He is already using Dying Sun and the helm enchant is much more than 3ex

I just bought the Dying sun right after I made the first post, its actually such a huge upgrade! Everything dies so fast now! I'm working on getting my helm enchanted by running a few labs everyday, I hope to get it soon. As far as energy shield goes, I actually respected my tree a little and got room for 2 medium clusters and 2 small clusters. The Mediums both have Stalwart Commander and Vengeful Commander while the smalls have Energy from Naught so I'm now sitting at an 8.4k ES pool which feels a bit more comfortable.

OK, so I'm pretty happy with my LL transition thus far. Definitely way less punchy than Ball lightning with CoTB and a full large cluster jewel tree's worth of damage, BUT, I have way more than 5k ehp, no more MoM annoyance, and my XP bar is actually moving again :)

My big question- I got so used to freezing stuff, I kinda miss it and I'm looking into making the transition to GC or Icicle.

The thing I don't really understand for its viability is the whole gem switch thing.... I've never had to swap gems on a character for clear/bossing, and while that seems like it would make sense on actual map bosses, endgame bosses like UberElder, and metamorphs, it doesn't seem like it would make a lot of sense for something like Simulacrum (one of the more lucrative farming focuses in the game rn) where bosses just drop the F in on you and start swinging (though clear is super important otherwise). I also get that in this game you typically have to specialize *somewhere* for a build to excel

Also, would you mind peeking at my build and seeing if there's any obvious places I could tweak for damage boost? It def doesn't feel *bad*, but I'd greatly appreciate any input/advice.

Having an absolute blast, especially now I've got a 6-link. What do you think I should look to upgrade next?

Also, is there a ranking for mods on the weapon as to which is most important of the available mods?

Hi guys,
I never played miner before and just wondering if I will be able to build something good to do all content Awakening Lvl 8 with just 15 exalts?

Can get two times more selling my current gear if needed, wish I could avoid this.

Currently, I'm playing double strike/flicker and for T16 is great, Elders or Shapers are not a big problem but Sirus A8 is awful for me. This build looks quite interesting and thinking if I can manage something with my currency

FWIW, I had 20ex in the bank when I started my transition and I ended up left with about 5ex after all was said and done. Granted, my gems and what not are all there. I kept all of my old setup in the stash in case I hated this, but it's going well so far. The build is super fun and you'll be spoiled on anything like metamorphs/conquerors where the fight is over before it starts.

I'd say it's probably enough to get you up and running. I'm also inclined to stretch my budget on things like 6 linking a shavs myself to get better stats for cheaper, buying boots and enchanting them myself, buying a basic hubris circlet with a decent enchant and crafting up, etc. etc. Feel free to take a look at my profile to see where I landed.
