OK I just made the switch at level 68 to the starter package + the Circle Ring. Could some one take a look to see if what I did makes sense?

Notes:

* I know I will be slightly undercapped on res when I get the next -30 to all res after act 10, but I think I can easily fix that by just changing belt.

* I already have the +1 wand, but it is level 72. For now I am using Iron Point. When I get to 72 I will equip wand and start using hatred

* I had to drop Generosity for Stone Golem (to have 5 allies) as I can only summon 3 specters right now

* For now I am using Dread Banner and Skitterbots. At 72 I will see if I can fit in both hatred and skitterbots but I don't think I will be able to.

* My unreserved mana pool is large right now at 1185. Hopefully I can get this much smaller at level 72. ES is currently 7400.



At 68 and 72, I was almost at the exact same place you are. I was able to use Hatred and Skitterbots but I had a Enlighen level 3 installed (you level 1 does nothing to help you out). It is also my understanding that Hatred should take precedence over the others. So implement Hatred and then whatever you can fit in.



I may have done something wrong or I simply don't have good enough gear. I am now at level 72 so I can use my +1 wand and hatred and I picked up a level 3 enlighten as you suggested.

I believe I have taken all of the reduced nodes available to take but right now I have the following for mana reservation:

HOA: 32%
Hatred: 40%
Skitter: 28%

So I can't use them together as they add up to exactly 100. (is this where getting a jewel with -1 on it will help?)

I am not sure what I am doing wrong but I guess I may try to use dread banner and clarity with Hatred as those should fit.


My mana reserved is the same as yours for both Hatred and Skitter. But my HOA only reserves 29%. The difference must be the support gems I am running in my 3G3R Loyal.

For my next upgrade I was planning on changing to a color combination on my chest that would raise my DPS. After seeing your experience I think that I will wait.

Hey guys, i finished playing my HOA with references to this build today with 100 and 40/40 challenges, so undoubtful a great build overall. i personally prefered cyclopean coil + chill and freeze immune boots and flesh and stone over skitters cuz 10% less reservation, which allows to skip the reserve cluster at scion when using a 39% reserve nostalgia an enlighten 4 in flesh and stone with hatred OR enlighten 3 with the 2% reserve unique jewel whose name i always forgot, that one you can exactly put out in this setup with flesh and stone as soon as you get a enlighten 4 instead of 3. in my eyes the most efficient way but maybe personal taste, not sure.

I was lucky enough to achieve some great gear so i was able to hit 20,4k ES with watchers eye but soul and steel annointed so with 76/76/77 max res and more phys migation. Also this setup enabled me to skip +1 gloves for enfeeble gloves and spec dual curse in tree for 3 points and 12% more dmg reduction against bosses and so on, so like max def variant i would say.

If someone is interested in details how to build up this variant you can whisper me, if this was already mentioned here im sorry for duplicate content, cant search 200 sites of thread, mea culpa :)

Also if youre interested to spend some currency im selling my whole gear right now, including my skin, watchers good rolled vault and a sick ring:
well that was fun!

I just turned level 74 (I don't even have my last lab point) and just out of curiosity I wanted to see if I could do a mid tier map.

I ran a decent alched tier 10 and was able to clear it fairly easily. Only the maxed out Metamorph took a while as I had to flee once to recharge.

awesome gear!

I sometimes feel like I am playing a completely different game when it comes to currency :)

You good players seem to accumulate exalts as fast I accumulate alchs :)

Hi again,

So i've been trying some stuff. Was trying to get 6 auras running(with HoA). For that i've been using a 15% reduced mana reservation shield. But had to take a intuitive leap with 1% reduced and weird tree. Lost some dps cause had to take off curse node so we lost proj weakness and lost minion node gravepact. Heres pob for that setup

Pob: https://pastebin.com/npe5xz4y

But Yesterday i bought what i really wanted to make the 6 auras shine. Herald of Agony enchant. So currently im running Flesh and stone,Hatred,Clarity,Aspect of the spider,skitter bots and HoA of course. Still have alot of upgrades to do. Need to craft a better shield with more es(currently the one im running has life instead of Es). Need lvl 6 awakened gems. And of course the watcher's eye.

So currently right now i have 10.2k Es(with watcher's eye we can hit 12.5k+ es and once i get a shield with es i can hit almost 14k i think) and single target with vile toxins 9.2m dmg(With deathmark i can hit 9.78m+ but havent gotten chest with 2g 2r 2b yet)

Heres Pob : https://pastebin.com/3k3RMTQM

Also today while doing carries did sirus 8 in 2.19 today beating kyuhlee00 ^^

Heres highlight : https://www.twitch.tv/videos/537096640

Also got aul at 726 depth but havent killed him yet when i do ill link video here too

Thanks again <3


Wow this is reaching that DPS is quite a feat. I've been trying to see how I could fit all 6 auras, and you just helped me figure it out. I'm currently running the 5: HoAg + Hatred + Skitterbots + Clarity + Aspect of the Spider

Here is my build: https://poe.ninja/challenge/builds/char/Chickenneth/GoldenFriedChicken?i=0&search=name%3DGolden

I can only reach about 6 million boss DPS max with my build if I switch to proj weakness curse + vile toxins. I'm now seeing that upgrading my shield will help me fit in flesh and stone again. I chose Aspect of the Spider over Flesh and Stone because I like the option of having an extra gem slot for Vaal Discipline, so I can have a panic button for crazy modded maps. I'm currently at 21K ES, and I don't know if I want to sacrifice a lot of my survivability for more DPS because I haven't had much issues with DPS, but I might if I try to push into deeper delves.

On a side note, I was very fortunate while divining Lethal Prides to get a 15% + 20 Str with 10% chance to intimidate on hit.



For now I have opted for the Intimidate on hit so I can drop Unwavering Crusade to get both Time of Need and Bastion of Hope because I love all forms of defense. I might consider getting a poachers mark on hit ring and go for the extra 5% strength when I get more currency, but for now I'm happy.

Thank you for the inspiration for the idea of a 15% reservation shield to fit more auras!


Yah the 15% shield its pretty insane. But its hard to craft a decent one.

Holy dude that lethal pride rolls are insane grats on it holy. I still need to divine mine only goot 5% strenght and +20 strenght rolls

Yah you lose some energy shield with this setup but the 6 auras are so insane i feel like it,having blind + aspect of the spider its pretty nutty

the skitterbot shock dps is so big in POB that I wish I could figure out how to scrape 1% more mana space so that I could fit it in but my knowledge level is too low.

I know an elighten level 4 will give me the space but it is too expensive for me.

I think it is probably best if I level everything to 20 (and HOA to 21 if I can afford) and then look at everything again to see what I can do. Making a change now may back fire later as I am still leveling gems which may change mana reservations.

just get two jewels with mana reservation corruption. golden rule, conquerer's efficency and tempered spirit are pretty cheap

Thanks! As I am leveling hopefully I can generate some currency to be the corrupted jewels.
Jesus why items are getting so expensive? Corrupted skin of the Loyal 2b3g1r (so cheapers version) with +2 to socketed gems cost like 25ex right now and 40-50c without corruption...

Have 17-18 Ex in currency but looking at prices right now... building OP necro will be much cheaper :/. I leveled my Templar to 68 only to see those crazy prices :E.

I was so close to getting all 6 auras while maintaining some level of my builds' prior tree pathing and functionality. I bought one of these for 9c
and crafted Aspect of the Spider onto it, but alas Aspect auras are not affected by Enlighten support nor the shield mod 15% reduced reservation, only global mana reservation modifiers, which threw a wrench into the process.

I still managed to get them to fit with 100% mana reservation and 18.4k ES. To further reduce the reservation, I would need to replace my Corrupted Blood immunity Healthy mind with a 1% reduced mana reserve implicit, or replace Awakened Vicious Projectiles with Faster Attacks on HoAg, or corrupt reduced mana reservation onto my Watcher's Eye or Lethal Pride. I didn't feel comfortable sacrificing so much ES, damage, or survivability for Sirus just for Flesh and Stone. Maybe if I get a better shield with more ES.

My other options are to buy a Herald of Agony mana reservation enchant on Memory Vault (still running skitterbots reduced reservation), switch to a 2R2B2G +2 chest to utilize Maim support over Awakened Vicious Projectiles. Hopefully someone else can think of other options. I could also utilize your tree and buy the intuitive leap to get the extra reservation nodes.

I'll continue brainstorming for now, but thank you for the ideas!
