[3.15]Expedition PENANCE/ SPARK Aura Stack, 50M+ DPS, BEST BUILD IN GAME | 20-30 EX BUDGET VIDEO

"
My only desire is to not die against "DIE" beam like an ant xD

That's doable. I just don't know at what breakpoint of EHP we can tank it. The only thing we know is that if you're dying to that, then you're not tanky enough. Lol.

"
Dunno what's the difference between these BP's, 17 currency with some small currency chests, duplicated content with vinderi while most reduced alert level. I will try the one you say when i get some currency to copy it, thanks!

Difference is the other loots that you get aside from currency. 'Cause there will be streaks that you don't get exalts, you should've at least get something from other chests. In that BP you have, there's little loots that are worth it other than the exalts you get so yeah. I think I pretty much breakeven with that BP, didn't gain nor lose anything. I just ran it a couple of times though. Unlike you, you lost money by running them. And also, it's important that you know what those small chests drop. Like for example, small currency chest that drops currency ALWAYS drop currency, so you need to open that chest every time you run it. If you're familiar with CuteDog youtuber, he has videos about it. He's also running the BP I mentioned. Watch his vods so you'd learn more about it.

One of your rings is only 40% :O, just that extra 8% makes a lot of difference! Cold penetration on purity of ice gives much more too



A single point here is QOL too.

At the moment your Aura Effect is very very low, 3.35, a break point where you will see changes is 3.50, then 4. I was on your same boat till i upgraded many thing.

In addition to what has already mentioned. Unless you're using divergent version, purity of elements doesn't do you anything. Might as well replace it with Dread Banner.

Other than that, just upgrade as you get more currency. You should prioritize aura effect.
Hey guys, just finished leveling my LL CoC Ice Nova to 100 and looking to level an alt.

I'm still obsessed with WO. Whats the minimum investment I'd need to make to get a reasonable WO starter build. That Nebulis alone is 2 Mirror?

Just do it mate. Look at the equipments on trade site and price check it yourself. Prices are always changing and are relative. I'm not sure what Nebulis stats did you look for but those kinds of Nebulis are for min-maxing.

3.12 UPDATE:

This build is stronger than ever before with the alternate quality on the Aura gems and the Vitality Aura Reservation Changes. I will be playing hardcore this league, and I will be playing a Guardian version due to it being more tanky. Crafting the rare boots and amulet will be a lot harder this league, but you will just be missing some defensive stats. It will be a lot harder to get the chaos res, so running a CI version with Saqawal's may be more optimal.

Feel free to come over to my stream at Twitch.tv/Kobeblackmamba to ask any questions about the build. I will also personally review your profile upon request if you need help with gearing choices.

Heist Budget 3.12 Gear on my character in HC Heist w/ POB
Spoiler
This is my character that I am currently playing on HC Heist. It is a guardian, but the tree is nearly identical except you path out of templar instead of scion. It wastes extra passive points and has a lot less damage than scion, but I chose it for its extra tankiness on hardcore. However, I do not recommend going Guardian on Softcore Heist as the tankiness is just not needed.


Updated Path of Building: https://pastebin.com/C2zVrpB6


Leveling in 3.12
Spoiler
Fastest way to level this build is to go Stormblast Mine/Orb of Storms at the start. Then transition into Cremation/ Armageddon Brand at 28. Then you should transition to Ball Lightning Archmage at 38. You can play Ball Lightning Archmage Ascendant for a while until you can farm enough gear and currency to play the Budget Version of this Build. The Ball Lightning Version is very strong by abusing the foreboding mana flask.


Crafting Medium Clusters in 3.12
Spoiler
Without harvest, it is going to be much harder to get perfect jewels with chaos resistance and life regen on the suffixes. Our new strategy is to just alt until we hit a good prefix/suffix and then regal in hopes of gaining another notable. Some good prefixes include: Flat Energy Shield, 25(35%) Effect, First Among Equals, Replenishing Presence, Stalwart Defenders, and any aura reservation notable if you need extra mana reservation. Some good suffixes include: intelligence, life regeneration, and chaos resistance. As you can see there are a lot of options for what will work with the cluster jewel, making alt/regaling not as daunting as it may seem. We need 6 total medium clusters.

Perfect Jewel would ideally have 35% effect, flat energy shield, chaos resistance, and intelligence. With these affixes on the medium clusters, our damage will be much higher and have up to 10-11k es with full endgame gear.



Best Alternate Quality Gems for 3.12
Spoiler
Without a doubt, Divergent Determination is the most important alternate quality gem. Since we have no armour, this gem's alternate quality allows us to reach 30k armour with no investment at all. It scales off our aura effectiveness, and allows us to use our evasion rating as armour rating.

Anomalous Purity of Ice grants us 4% cold penetration that scales with our aura effectiveness. This makes it equivalent to around 12-15% penetartion depending on our aura effectiveness, which is crazy considering there is no opportunity cost.

Overall, there are many alternate quality gems that gives us free power that was no available before. Wrath and Precision are both guaranteed to give good outcomes with the use of a lens. You can get aura effectiveness or reduced mana reservation.

Make sure to look up on poedb for the weightnings on the alternate quality jewel if you decide to you use the orb to reroll the quality of the gem. This could a lot of times be cheaper than buying the gem directly from someone.


Using Enhance with Alt Quality Purities for Maximum Penetration
Spoiler
Alternate qualitiy Purity of Elements along with Purity of LIghtning and Ice give you up to 4% penetration at 20% quality, meaning each 5% quality gives you 1% penetration. Therefore, by using a lvl 4 enhance gem to link up to these auras we can bring the quality to 44%, we reach 8% penetration. Purity of Elements gives us penetration to all elements while Ice and Lightning only gives penetration to cold and lightning respectively. This penetration scales with aura effectiveness, and most builds will have around 300% peneration. By using an alt quality Purity of Elements and Purity of Ice, we would end up having 50% cold penetration. Therefore, we are sacrificing a gem link and some mana reservation for a free gem link that makes your single target bossing much easier. This is a pretty high budget option to improve the character as it will require you getting Call of the Brotherhood with an aura corruption, which is very expensive.


Skill review in 3.12
"
Best starter skills in 3.12 for this build are EK and Arc. They combine a great combination of clear and single target. I was able to test out EK more recently and came away quite impressed with its damage potential due to the additional more multiplier you will receive on hatred. Again just play what you enjoy more as they are both super strong at start. Spark is a higher budget option as it requires more damage for the single target to feel good along with requiring another 50% aura (Malevolence) to be run. However, spark is god tier in certain scenarios like layouts with walls and farming Simulacrum.

Winter Orb is the best clearing skill for this build due to it always casting around you, allowing you to just run around the map. This skill requires significant investment in your gear as it has no lightning damage scaling outside of smite, meaning you miss out on a large chunk of your more multiplier.


Will update rest of build as I go along.

Winter Orb Setup for Gear:

Spoiler


Path of Building: https://pastebin.com/0i8FXfMG


Winter Orb Path of Building: https://pastebin.com/mZWP5MtS

You will have to click through the cluster jewels to import all the jewels. I am not sure why Path of Building is bugged.

Different Skill Setups:

Spoiler
This build can use a large number of skills because any spell will get multiplied by an insane amount from all your auras. The skills I recommend are: Arc, EK, Spark, and Winter Orb. I have tried all these out, and I will list out the pros and cons below:

Arc: Great All around setup with decent single target damage. Clear is not as good as the other skills and requires you to be relatively close to do damage.

EK: Amazing Clear but mediocre single target, will rely on headhunter buffs for insane scaling due to the physical nature of the spell.

Spark:
Slightly weaker than Arc/EK for beginner gear levels, however has great clear on certain map types where the spark can bounce around. Best skill for doing garden in Harvest.

Winter Orb: Best late game setup with fastest map clear. Respectable single target once your gear is insane. Overall best for infinite currency.


Crafting Gear:


Spoiler
Amulet: Use a marble amulet for extra regen. Get a Redeemer's Marble Amulet with reduced mana reserved on it. Get any shaper amulet with lvl 22 vitality. Use awakener orb on shaper amulet and then the marble amulet so you have an amulet with lvl 22 vitality and mana reserved. Then use harvest crafts with aug cold and remove colds to get ideally: damage penetrates 10% cold resistance and cold damage leeched as energy shield. use augment caster mod to get cast speed, and craft %es with the bench for your endgame amulet.

Boots:
You need Projectiles Pierce 2 Additional targets from a hunter pair of boots. Use a redeemer's sorcerer boots and roll elusive on it. Use the Awakener orb on the hunter pair of boots and then redeemer's sorcerer boots to get a Sorcerer's Boot pair with Projectiles Pierce 2 Additional Targets and Chance to Gain Elsuive on Critical Strike. Then craft on Prefixes cannot be changed and use the Harvest Bench to Reforge Crit. By Reforging crit with prefixes cannot be changed you will guarantee the boot to have Elusive and Tailwind on it along with the Projectiles Pierce. At this point, you can choose to craft on Movespeed and Cannot be Chilled while using the Harvest Crafts to fill out the chaos resist. Lastly, use beastcrafting to get level 20 Aspect of the Avian Skill.

These are the two main rare pieces of gear and each item should cost less than 10 exalt to craft if done correctly.


Budget Gear Setup:

Spoiler
Helmet: Alpha's Howl with a cheap reservation enchant

Necklace: Rare necklace with Reduced Mana Reservation

Rings: Conversion Call of the Brotherhoods, focus on getting catalysts for near full conversion

Chest: 6-link shavs

Shield: Prism Guardian

Belt: Torrent's Reclamation or Crystal Belt/Stygian Vise

Boots: Tailwind Sorcerer Boots, can craft easily with Reforge Crit on Harvest Craft

Gloves: Maligaro's Virtuosity

Weapon: Nebulis with any good damage implicit

All this gear should be around 20 ex or less and should be a good baseline to start with. As you get better upgrade, you should gocus on getting the corrupts on the Call of the Brotherhoods to run more auras and trying to pick up more and more reduced mana reserved jewels. Eventually you want to switch over to Hands of the High Templar for empowered smite, but this means you have to get jewels with multi on it to make up for the Maligaro gloves.



Jewels:

Spoiler
Large Cluster Jewels: You will need 3 large cluster jewels. Need 8 passive skills, Vengeful Commander, Disorienting Display and any third passive skill that splits the cluster jewel so that you need the minimum amount of passive skill points to pick up the medium cluster jewel socket. You only need one disorienting display, so the other two large cluster jewels will have Vengeful Commander and Snowstorm.

End Game Option: Run 2 voices and 1 large cluster jewel


Medium Cluster Jewel: You will need 6 medium cluster jewels. You want to roll Replenishing Presence, First Among Equals, life regen, and chaos resist as the perfect medium cluster jewel. Depending on your mana reservation on your jewels, you might need the notables that give less reservations for certain auras. This is very flexible and should be adjusted based on your mana reservation.


Small Cluster Jewel: You will need 6 of these also. These will be jewels that are corrupted with reduced mana reservation. A good option is to use 3 Grand Spectrums and 3 cobalt jewels with energy shield and a damage mod with the reduced mana reservation corruption.


Miscellaneous Jewels: Hazardous Research for spark, Might of the Meek, Conqueror's Efficiency, Intuitive Leap, Transcendent Flesh (if no maligaro's), Unnatural Instinct




You can ask me questions on Twitch.tv/KobeBlackmamba . Streaming the build in delirious maps and trying to upgrade gear.
Guys somehow my dmg is lacking, i fell like i should have much more dmg, i was following the the budget version of path of matth, now i even have the divergent purity of ice and elements with enhance lvl 4 and still can't get the 13M sirus dps on pob. While he shows the budget version with 16 to 19M...

I tried to talk to different people and we couldn't get to a conclusion on whats wrong..

When i changed from budget normal gems to divergent purity of elements and divergent purity of ice, i didn't notice a big change, and in the video guide he says it should almost double your dmg.

If someone can help me my profile is open. thx

If you need my pob just send me a msg. but u can find it by my username :)

PoB is a numbers game. I just imported your char, fill the clusters and copy pathofmatth's config and this is what I get.

https://pastebin.com/1irrukGA

Correct me if I'm wrong. This is the PoB of pathofmatth that you're referring to right? https://pastebin.com/8vhAVfGq

Take note that in pathofmatth's PoB, his vaal haste is on, thus inflating the numbers more. Without it, it's 12M dps. If you want to compare with this, change the gem in your pob to vaal haste and turn it on too.

If you'd take anything from what I said, it's that PoB is a numbers game. Content creators relatively gain more traction if they inflate the numbers. By no means this is bad. But you have to figure out where that number came from.

Cheers!

Edit: You mentioned that you feel like you should have more dmg. I don't know if you're referring to in-game or referring to your PoB vs pathofmatth's. If it's the latter, then that's already answered. You're past his budget version. If it's the former, I guess you need to do his higher budget version now.
