Both my ring and belt are pants, but I enjoyed the previous discussion about belts a lot. Might swing a little for a better/maxed resist ring and take another look at my belt after that, probably going for maxed out ES on it, instead of the cyclopean.

I'd have about 20 ex to spend again soon so should be able to get something nice.

/edit/

I'm around for Flayers but I will be delving and trying out Aul in a little bit, so if there's no response it's that.

Well, if you want to save currency and are not in a hurry, set a live search for cheap Kaom's or Rakiata. Then divine them into Kiloava and check for intimidate. If it's a bust, sell it for around 30-40c more than you bought it for, since Kiloava is more expensive. Much easier on the currency.

Sure, the fast way is to throw a hundred Divines at it, but it's something you can do on the side while playing. It's not like it is essential. It is just nice to have both Time of Need and Bastion of hope and still get the 10% more damage from Intimidate.

Man I know intimidate is such a strong mod but I literally just hit a roll that gives me +20str on the might node, and then +5% str and all 3 of the other nodes. It's #14076 if people want to try and find it.

I'm so torn after hitting this crazy roll. lol

So 15% str and flat 20 str? Well, that might be a justification to keep Unwavering Crusade instead of Time of Need if there ever is one. Should be crazy amounts of ES when you get your Watchers Eye. Always gotta account for that, strength's effect on ES will get a lot stronger with the Watchers Eye.

Yeah. lol. Like I said, an absolute crazy roll to hit. Though, I threw a ton of ex's at this thing to hit that. Again, probably not something I'd recommend people doing because I'm stupid chunking divines at it.

What's the best rolled rare belt to get because i got lucky after corrupting 5 cyclopean belts and using this for now.

Still looking to min max this build and gotta run many calculations on PoB.

I'd probably recommend selling it - I got 28ex for a 6/5% corruption. A well rolled hunter rare really is a lot better.

Yea, I am still undecided if a Hunter Heavy Belt or a Hunter Stygian is the better call.

My feeling is spending the currency to get a Hunter Stygian is worth it in the end. An Abyss Jewel can add a lot of stuff to the build. Can be used to fix resists if you have no other way, get flat ES, flat mana and flat str, and the most underrated mod for minion builds, % chance for minions to blind on hit. Blind overall is underrated. 50% reduced chance to hit for the monsters is a huge defensive buff, especially in deep delves.

Or any of the other minion mods.

Yea, I think my endgame will be a Stygian.

@Mecielle, do we need the strength roll from the heavy belt implicit mod?

Well, its good of course. It's 42 str with catalysts which is a lot of ES. But its direct competition is an abyss jewel that can roll 4 mods, for example mods I described above. I think its a close call, but I like that the jewel gives me more flexibility. And I can still go all out for ES with it if I want to, with up to 40 ES, 40 mana and 16 str, and would have another free suffix.

But it is of course more expensive. Need a Hunters Exalted orb for 3ex to make a Stygian into a Hunter influenced Stygian. Thats a lot of currency just for the uncrafted base :D

When and how does this build go from life to all es? Right now im in act 2 using 6link (without empower) hoag tabula. Just curious when we get tankier in lvling and in end game.
