[3.17] Wallach's Hierophant Freezing Pulse Totems (No Further Updates)

Unfortunaty I don't have acces to POB. Can anyone tell me what is the better choice?

Soul Mantle with +1 all gems corruption

Or

Soul Mantle with +2 projectile gems

Assuming all gems are 20/20 or 21/20

I can buy both on PS4 but unfortunately there is no double corrupted and probably never will.

I used this build to level my mana guardian HoA, then realized it's a lot more fun than HoA and now making a new one. Hello from the end of the league and thanks!

I talk a bit about this at the bottom of the "High End Gearing" section; generally the +1 to all gems corruption comes out a bit ahead, but it requires you to swap in an Empower rank 4. For the most part I don't consider the opportunity cost of doing it that worthwhile, so I'd just say go for whichever of the two is cheaper. You can probably get more power gain with the difference in currency elsewhere in your gear set.

On a side note, while I haven't been active for a bit I am looking forward to 3.10 and will definitely be back to update the guide and do some more streaming for the new league. Seems like it will take a long while to sort out the new jewels for the guide!

enjoying the build, considering awakening gems and a 2nd essence worm.

Anything glaring?

Can a 5L +1 gems or +2 to proj gems Soul Mantle beat a 6L uncorrupted one?

Nice!! That's a great new!
Vaal temple map experience
Level 91 on this build on xbox, two kikazaru version. 4.4k life + 1260 energy.

Does anyone have advice for how to beat the Vaal temple bosses? I roll Over everything else, t16 maps pretty easy (apart from lethal stupidity) but this map has me rage quitting... 10 deaths at the hands of these bastards.

The arena is quite small so can’t hide/back off very much, and there are these terrible “raindrops” which pretty much blanket the area and one touch and I am dead.

I have tried adding a decoy totem which in my second attempt on the map Helped, and managed to kill two of the buggers, but on last three portals back into arena i am killed before i can ever activate a skill (such as flame dash to try to dodge the rain)

Should i just abandon this map? Just feels the build is far too fragile for this style of fight.
And can I have back the many hours it will take to recover the lost xp? :-)

I can't see your characters on the Xbox side, but generally if you're struggling there it's more down to damage than defense. It's the kind of fight where your best defense is offense; the longer you let any of them live the worse the encounter gets. Other than that I'd just say make sure you try and down the spike monster lady first because each of them get stronger as the others die, and she is totally miserable to deal with powered up.

Does it matter? Just 6-link the +1 gems or +2 proj version. If it's corrupted, use vaal orbs and the bench, still worth it.
