any combination that isn't a 3blue is a good combo. the dps loss between any of them is basically non existant when it comes to bossing so i'm not sure why people try so hard to get 3g2r1b.

my current gear is as follows.

4g1b1r - 4.9m shaper dps.
4g2r - 4.87m shaper dps
3g2r1b - 4.99m shaper dps.
3g1r2b - 5.22m shaper dps (with deathmark)
2g2r2b - 5.3m shaper dps (with deathmark)
any 3 blue combo will struggle to hit 4m dps so never go for this

any of those will clear trash indentically and bossing will be the same too as deathmark is easy to manage there.

so the real answer is just to get whatever you can buy for cheaper because it has basically no impact on your final dps. i personally went with one of the first two options. why? the 4th green link is less mana than any of the other options which allowed me to save 3 points on the tree for the final reservation node. that gave me about 600 more ES


Yeah the difference in single-target DPS between a lot of different colour combinations seems pretty negligible unless you are going for the ultra min-max. Clear DPS might be a bigger difference as Vile Toxins and Deathmark won't be at their full potential, but once you get to level 31 HoAG any combination is going to be over-kill anyway so you're not going to notice the difference.

Striving for a 20-25ex Skin seems a lot more realistic than trying to go for an 80ex version.

Which color Skin would you recommend to get started with the rest of what you mentioned?


The last post on page 203 gives a good overview of the color options. Also it is worth mentioning that skin of the lords tends to be cheaper than skin of the loyal, though you are forced to use corrupted gems and have to be careful not to get a keystone that bricks the build.
I'm using 2/2/2 and messing around a little with Mana reservation. My idea is to switch out Pierce for awakened viscious projectiles for bossing. Even using Pierce and deathmark my clear speed is just fine though, it's not the absolute fastest but it's solid enough.

I'll probably spam lab runs this weekend to see if I can get something useful on my helmet and go from there.

But overall I'm pretty satisfied with where I'm standing now. I love that the build is still pretty flexible even with the mandatory uniques there's still so much stuff to look at/improve and test out. It's a lot of fun.

If you replace DOFL with Deathmark, it's a DPS drop on general mob clear but you get similar levels of DPS when Deathmark is active on a boss. Plus Deathmark is pretty good QoL, especially for metamorphs to stop your crawler getting distracted by adds.

can some send me an invite for spectres please..had then somehow lost them in a game crash and can no longer desecrate them...ty in advance.. IGN:Ablind_tankersMan
Hello guys,
Leveling this char early this week and I got an enchant with Skellis deals 40% increased damage on my Memory Vault.
I found interesting that some builds are going that path, I searched in PoeNinja, but I don't know how to go for that way... Any advice? what to change or where to change? I'm noob and I didn't found a thread in this forum named Guardian Skellies or something.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

PS: Sorry about my bad English, its not my main language.
just a warning for anyone attempting to craft a +2 amulet. if you do this you CANNOT merge a hunter +1chaos gems with a warlord +1physical gems amulet. i made this mistake and threw like 4ex down the drain. LOL.

it has to be a hunter +1dex amulet with a warlord +1physical amulet. why? because physical and chaos are part of the same global mod pool whereas dexterity and physical are not, for some reason.

you can check this on poedb. chaos gems has the 'ModGroup: GlobalDamageTypeGemLevel'. physical has that same mod group. dexterity however is part of the 'ModGroup: GlobalAttributeTypeGemLevel'. so physical and dexterity can combine but not physical and chaos.

it would be the same for hunter and elder belts. both %attributes mods share the 'ModGroup: PercentageAllAttributes' so they will not combine together.

i really should have checked this before using the awakener's orbs and amulet bases cause now they've all disappeared LOL


Looking to sell this off now that I've accomplished everything I wished to with the build.

Hit me up with a reasonable offer in game if you're interested @BerylMetamorphinRanger
