nice wand u have there, how did u craft with aspect as well as the 2 +1 skill level and hatred on top of it?
I tried to craft a +2 wand myself but after 10 or so tries i didn't get one so i bought one with an open suffix and an open prefix. I wanted to gamble so i crafted prefix cannot be changed, scour, then multimod cannot roll attack mod and cannot roll caster mod, which together remove everything but minion damage, mana, minion damage/mana hybrid, and some chaos mods with low weighting. I got a tier 4 minion damage/mana hybrid, i'd prefer a pure mana mod but this is what i got.
After that i multimoded with minion attack/cast speed and trigger.
When the last patch allowed to quality circle of nostalgia for 8% reduced mana reservation for Hoag, i saw i could fit one more aura, so i wanted aspect of the spider. Since the attack speed mod wasn't that great and i had no other piece of gear with a suffix open, i removed the multimod to beastcraft aspect of the spider. This left a suffix open on my wand, so i went on poe db to see what i could get in here, and saw that redeemer had some good mods: hatred aura effect, cold exposure on hit and frostbite on hit. It has some other bad mods for us but most can be blocked with cannot roll caster mod. I think you also can get onslaught on kill, it has the caster tag but only for fossils, not for meta craft for some reason. So i went on with this idea, crafted cannot roll caster mod, and slamed the redeemer and hit tier1 hatred mod with the perfect 40% roll.
The mod is quite powerfull, it's a 5% more damage over minion attack speed against shaper and 6.5% against trash.
Cold exposure is probably better against bosses though.
If you want to get a +2 wand with hatred, cold exposure or frostbite it's quite easy if you have a bit of currency, you can buy +2 wands with an open affix for 10 to 12ex, if it's an open prefix you beastcraft add a prefix remove a random suffix, then you craft prefix cannot be changed, scour, craft cannot roll caster mod and slam a redeemer's orb, if you don't get what you want you resell the wand and get back the cost of the base. Each try should cost about 3-4ex (200c for redeemer's exalt, 2ex for prefix cannot be changed). It's not cheap but not that expensive either, and you have good odds to get a good result (8 possible mods including tiers, so 1 in 4 to get hatred, 1 in 4 to get cold exposure, 1 in 8 to get frostbite and 3 in 8 to get the bad onslaught mod). Be wary of the itemlevel of the wand, it needs to be at least 80 (but most +2 wands are anyway).

How do you get the tri curse? Whispers of doom and?
Awakened curse on hit gives a free curse at level 5.
thanks for the thorough explanation :), now to pray to rngesus
Can anyone that is alot better then me check my gear and maybe help me out, i think i should have more ES for what im using atm but cant really figure out why its only at 11.770. I dont have watcher's eye yet, but it cant really be the only thing that keeps my ES so low?
And my damage is 2.5m im not sure if that is correct, i havent used path of building to check dmg before so i might be doing alot of stuff wrong?
finally hit the wand...took about 10ish tries had three bricked annuls which hurt my soul!
Any suggestions for the next upgrade to go for? I am not able to buy a watchers eye, they are stupid expensive.
Also in the current setup i am able to run Skitterbots, Hatred, Precision and Flesh and Stone. Is that the right aura setup or should i rather run Discipline?
Thanks,
Interested about this too... how much would a 21/20 discipline adds to our shield/hp pool?
edit: ran poe, it would add about 1.8k es for my build so its approximately 12% but would need an extreme 8% mana reduction + helm enchant

Hey, I just wanted to say thanks for this awesome guide!
I tried HoA Jugg before and it's not even close to mana guardian, which I found pretty cool and tough tanky. I wanted to ask what I should aim first in a matter of gear? Check my profile please for a character info. Thank you so much!

Look at my setup, I managed to fit in discipline in lieu of flesh and stone. L21 discipline gives me 2k es, to bring me back to a respectable 15k es after I lost the astramentis to get L31 HoAg
I think that (like some ppl here) replacing Astramentis with amulet + 1 chaos skill gems and eventually +2 lvl wand is best dmg boost for HoA. We can also get some ress on amulet so this can help us getting cannot be chillen/frozen on boots. Getting HoA to lvl 30-31 is biggest dmg boost and I think this build need it to make some content smoother. We have more than enough tankines but a bit more dmg would not hurt us.
I still cant decide between Bastion of Hope and Time of Need. 30% of HP over 1sec every 5 sec second will not safe us from meta one shoots and it also won't save us from turbo burst from some bosses(mosty meta).
