Is it really that good? With it I bump from 27k armor to 35k armomr, but lose 25% evade chance and phys mitgation seems to stay at 90.
Im not really good with game mechanics, but does it do anything for us?

Well it is good in two ways

1) It has synergy with our build. More armor is good not only for gaining ES but also for Phy mitigation. Please note that the in game tool tip and POB show 90% phy reduction which is based on SMALL incoming damage. Armor's effectiveness drops considerably as the incoming damage increases (think a big bop type of single hit). So if you adjust the incoming damage size in the POB config window, you will watch your armor's effectiveness drop.

In short, more armor is good :)


2) Even if you don't want the extra armor, others will. There is only one Iron Reflexes on sale right now in our colors and it is priced at 10ex. Even if you decide to sell for 8ex, you just made a 7.5ex profit. That is pretty great :)


You are in a no lose situation. :)

I also agree by the way that Pain Attunement is really interesting to save the 6 points but I am unsure how you turn those 6 points into a medium cluster jewel. The closest cluster jewel socket seems to still be 4 points away before you can even socket a medium cluster jewel. Can you explain this idea more?

Oh there were none, that 10ex is mine. Not sure I will sell it yet, just dumped it for now, cause I cant use it until I attempt to corrupt my Empower.

About points - the last PoB Clay posted doesnt have all the ponts used, its more of a lvl100 option. The PoB has 4 free points, freeing Pain attunement gives 6 more, 10 total, 4 to get to cluster and 6 more to use in the cluster. We need 4 for Medium jewel, so we could either snitch another small jewel (Master of Fear is amazing option as it gives unnerve to cursed targets), or we can use 2 more points elsewhere in the tree. Take a mastery for 20% less curse effect and one in life mastery for 50% nc flask heal when on Low life. A divine flask heals 2500 over 2 sec, prudent divine 101% more, so 5k over 2 sec. I assume with the mastery it will be either 6250 or 7500 over 2sec, which is still pretty nice in my book (thats almost our full hp+ES if used with Zealots oath flask). And it doesnt get us the degen of Taste unique OP has. Its nice to pop to full, but legacy version is only 8% max hp degen, while we have them at 25% max hp, and it still hurts (~200 degen\sec for the duration, which is about 4 or 6 sec)


Also, does anyone know if the cinderswallows dont roll Crit nowadays? Cant find any on trade, am I searching wrong? Only standard has them as far as I can see.

Nah seems to be nuked. I just checked every single other mod as NOT in the filter, and it came down to veiled and then to unid flasks. Doesnt exist anymore, so big nope for league, it seems.

Edit: If I'm brave like Andy and not bother to get a reduced curse ring, then I can even get my chaos resist much higher again. I do have a granite flask that gives 43% reduced curse effect so I could get by without it, but sounds scary...

OK I made the switch! I have like 25 raw chaos left but:

I lost about 3% DPS but I gained a ton of effective hit pool.

Physical : 126K->153K
Lightning: 50K->102K
Cold : 61K->127K
Fire : 60K->125K
Chaos : 19K->78K !!!!!!!!! (with 73% chaos resist)

One of my ring even has 39% reduced curse effect! :D

Ah good reminders

Btw right now I'm using herald of ash instead of discipline, because I really like the clear (and the MTX).

Just curious in POB I uncheck HOA and put back discipline (getting back about 900 ES), and the calculated effective hit pool actually does not increase that much! @Andy give it a check to see if you see the same thing in your POB, because being able to use HOA is a lot of DPS (like 12%)
