[3.11] Cold BV PF Indigon ft. RF | All content done in HC! | Fast mapper, safe boss-killer

Pretty much done with gear minus a few big ticket upgrades:

Watchers Eye: How much of a difference does an cold penetration mod make? 80-100ex upgrade. Cold damage ones go for 30ish ex.

Helm: Basically no Indigons with BV damage on the market.

Weapon: Could possibly add a +1 skill to what I have now. Not sure what the cost for that upgrade might be.

Anything else I can eek out more DPS and HP from? Sitting at 4.6k HP and 2.5K mana. I can survive most things if I pay attention, but cant AFK big hits on some end game bosses.

Reread what i posted before. You’re missing about 24% of your dps from using quality and the correct divergent/anomalous gems alone. Try t17 triple beyond 100% Delirious map to see how low your dps will be as a benchmark.

I apologize if this was answered previously in the thread.

Can someone show me the math for perma Taste of Hate? I can seem to get enough duration, charges gained, and reduced charges used to make the flask reliably permanent. That means without relying on the 20% chance for no charges spent.

On top of that, does anyone have recommendations for grouping up flasks? What I mean is that you have at least three different flasks that last different durations. Mana flask can be mashed pretty much every 4s, so I'm not worried about inefficiency there.

What I am worried about is reducing the amount of flasks that require pressing buttons at incongruous intervals. What I'd *really* love is all flasks every X seconds, they will be up 100% of the time, no kills required. But mana flask's duration and Taste of Hate's charge cost is getting in the way of that :(.


That said, love the build. Props to the build creator. I usually detest BV's maintenance in between packs but I've been playing this for a day and want more.
Cheers to this build's creator, its loads of fun and performs as advertised. I've put a lot of time and work into this build, its gear, and trying to understand the ins and outs. I can pretty much face-tank A8 while the BV chips away at him, though I still try to avoid the Die beam and storms, but they won't 1-shot me. I am to the point where I can do all content except for 1: fully juiced 100% delirious maps (and deep delve obviously). Simulacrums are definitely doable deathless, so I decided to sink a ton of currency into a T17 burial grounds and pretty much insta-died 6 times. I thought 4.6M dps (according to pob) would do it but I guess not? I really think it is the damage, since T18 Tropical Islands I can screen clear, but in the T17 100% I was really struggling to get the first kills to chain-explode the pack. And then Kosis showed up, I guess for revenge.

Thought weapon was close to BIS and put a lot into crafting all the other items, even though they are not perfect. This is my first HH, and now it needs to make back what I spent on it XD. Opinions and constructive criticism welcome. Will try to update with a PoB. Maybe a few more levels to reach that second Thread of Hope slot? The Dodge/Armour variant has worked out well up until now. Dodge is fine for mapping, conquerors, even simulacrums, but I swap in the granite flask for A8 (and Kosis if he gets a lucky crit in and sends me to h/o i'll grab it).

If someone can check my profile, appart of level 19-20 gems associate to blade vortex, what I can improve to single target damage?... I feeel mapping awesome, but single target is like shit... Thanks in advance...
Should I swap Concentrated Effect for intensify at Bossing?... Better Empower 4 or cold pen?...

I am not sure if 5232 hide out DPS with only hatred aura on is enough to do juiced Simulacrum?

I did not think that I could tank A8 Sirus die beam with only 4.3k health but I did :) Great build!
what would a 5-10ex (closer to 10 is fine) version of this build look like/have if at all possible?

i think you should be able to do the core build and run t16. Cluster jewels are expensive thought.

Here some tips:
-Get an 8 passives large cluster jewell without Sadist
-get Liquid inspiration on a small cluster jewell instead of medium
-use the unique gloves conversion
-don't focus on chaos res/divine flesh for now
-Find the cheapest explo chest and link-it yourself (begin with a 5 link without cold penetration).

I started with some shitty gear and was able to run t14-t16
running something kinda like this https://pastebin.com/cCQVn7tK what do you think are the advantages of this build over what im doing?
