Hello,

Why does your 6L curse on hit setup has 2 curses ( proj. Weakness and frosbite) ?

You can apply only 1 curse at the same time, unless i missed something ?

Great build though ! loving it atm!!

Edit : nevermind, just saw that awakened curse on hit lvl 5 gives you 1 additionnal curse. I guess this mean that having 2 6L is not very important as long as i don't have the awakened gem at lvl 5.

So i guess i'm gonna use proj weakness for the moment.

yes it's mostly for min-maxing. I wanted to get it in the league but it was beyond expensive so i never got it myself, bought a league later

STILL loving the build.

Managed to get the siege balista enchant for cheaper than market (Was going for 14ex!). Incorporated 2 cluster jewels, and smashing through a6 sirius / juiced t16s with around 3.8k life - punched in notables such as arrow dancing, wind dancer, acrobatics and phase acrobatics to compensate. Working a dream!

Ancestral might is perfect for bossing.

Finally got some good dex% + dex + life gloves, so that'll help a bit, need to sort out my rings, and aiming for awakened curse on hit next.. then potentially a double hated watchers eye. We'll see.

POB for interested: https://pastebin.com/6yFcdm0Z

Haven't quite figured out POB yet, but that should be accurate..

loving the build too (level 94). Thanks Angry!
I Had to buy the siege ballista enchant for 12ex (bargained from 14ex...) as there are few on the market (now none).
My personal changes:
Regarding flasks, i use a flask of dousing for instant heal and a mana flask of staunching. Getting hit can take all my mana away and I can't place any totem to defend myself without it. Also because I couldn't place all my totems at once (not enough mana), I set a enlighten gem with hatred and precision (it can also be useful to raise the level of the precision gem).
for life, I found a cheap corrupted cyclopean coil belt "8% max life" and I also anointed "cruel preparation" on the amulet (and I set "utmost swiftness" on the tree as it's in the path). 4.7K life is useful.
I'm not a fan of the portal gem, as I have to change the skill "summon lightning golem" (as it dies regurlarly, I have to resummon) to "portal" to use it on my skill tab. gathering portals is close in terms of ergonomy.

Ridiculous how expensive the helm enchant has become after i released the guide a few leagues ago.. damn

I'm playing with the idea of getting a %dex, life chest, with a %dex + damage per 15dex amulet - being under 4k even with all the evasion notables is a bit ropey.

Seems like the league for it, i've crafted an insane pair of gripped with T1 dex, T1 dex%, T1 life, T2 cold damage to attacks, bench crafted phys to cold... waiting on a speed aug for the guaranteed IAS. I've been keeping notes so once i've got the pieces I could do a harvest writeup. Might help people that were abysmal at crafting before this league (me!).

If all goes well, I could get %dex and support gems on the chest.. need to stop dicking about and save for awakened curse on hit, that's gonna boost single target so much.

Edit - I'm in the siege balista list on poe.ninja :')

Hi thanks again for build, i wanna notify to you a bug that can interest only this build,hope never happen to you guys.I was inside Cortex,i did all phases in last phase when there is boss,i died and i simply stay on the ground looking my ballista killing boss,he died he did a portal explosion animation,but no drop and no kill and no zana mission completed and if u back again inside portal,there is no more boss.So pay attention,bettere if u release and summon ballista and redoo

people seem to be confused about the annointment u want shaman's dominion and basically nothing else even if theres a 5% dex node in ur timeless jewel u want to cheese its not worth it
