Thanks for the great build. I reached delve 1200 with a slightly modified mana guardian.
I am using a cyclopean coil belt to get immunity of igniting and shock, and 2r/2b/2g body armor to use deathmark, which is quite useful to target a dangerous monster in delve (like the one that shoots a cone of electric waves).
And using spider aspect instead of skitter bot.
DPS is about 8.7M and ES is 14500.

Herald of Agony is not a clear speed build, people should realize this and read on the guide before committing to the build, its a slower super tanky build that when built and played properly can almost never die

Yesterday tried to farm t13 and t 14 maps - died on bosses - it damaging me and i can die: -+85 - all resists. 10.5 k es , 7k mana. Very annoying clear speed - u need to wait when your guys will kil all enemies, some crips staying alive after clearing. Dissapointed.

I've only been playing this build for a bit but was playing a different HoA build till I switched to this so I can answer some of your questions. Your helm makes you gain armor and your ascendancy makes you gain ES based on the amount of your reserved mana. That's why the build tries to make you reserve as much mana as you can. Your lethal pride in the jewel is wrong. Use divines on it till the name changes from kaom to kiloava and then take the minion instability node above it. With the lethal pride jewel it makes that node double your block, that's some of your survivability right there. You need to get the path of building link for the level 94 tree and follow that one as yours is a bit off. Your damage will go up as your gems level more, especially empower since it's level 2. I think you usually use skitterbots instead of flesh and stone as well starting out. Herald of agony does the damage and you stack up it's damage by hitting enemies with ball of lightning to stack poison and virulence stacks. The spectres help tank and provide the feeding frenzy buff as well gain onslaught from your ascendancy.

Was having a lot of trouble with the final phase of level 8 awakener but I am hoping the corrupted blood jewel will be able to fix that, I haven't attempted the fight again since I got it.
