Tanky CoC showcase -- 90% phys reduct, 7k+ es, 2k es leech, 1k es on block, CI, 100% ailment & more

This build is a little bit different than any others I've seen for assassin. I wanted the tankiness of a gladiator dreamfeather build but with the self poison golden rule setup of assassin for t19 100% delirium farming deathless. This build has very specific gear and stat requirements.

Build layers:
3 Endurance charges (always up - gained while channeling - medium cluster)
3 Frenzy charges (gained on kills)
7 Power charges (always up)
75/65 or 75/75 block/spell block without rumi's concoction (to gain the extra spell block requires sacrificing some ES nodes)
7k+ ES, 8k possible
1754 ES Leech on hit
1000 ES on block
74% phys reduction without anything - +12% from endurance while channeling, rest through one of the pantheon choices or covered by rumi's/molten shell for 90% always.
Vaal Molten Shell - ~15k absorb and molten shell cwdt for 7.5-9k absorb
40k+ armour
100% ailment avoidance
CI for 100% chaos & 75-80% other resists
50-80% stun avoidance boot enchant
Blind, Chill, & Freeze
Self-Poison setup for sextant rolling 1200% dmg & 600% movement speed
Dual curses & around ~160% cold pen total

Pros:
Can face tank sirus and farm t19 100% delirium deathless. I'm leveling to 100 doing them.

Cons:
slow bossing damage (sirus, elder, etc)

Gear along with explanations and variations

Self-Poison Setup
Spoiler
Reflects 100 poison back on you

Poison Sextant - You can spam simple-awakened sextants for 8/10/12% increased damage per poison on you & 4/5/6% increased movement speed per poison on you. This means you have 800-1200% increased damage and 400-600% increased movement speed while mapping with this sextant.

Noxious Strike Ascendancy for poison duration - without this it goes away far too quickly

Generating poison can be achieved through chaos damage on items such as
*Apep's Supremacy as well*

Poison immunity can be gained through CI. Other builds can achieve it through
or a malevolence watcher's eye roll.


Helmet:
Spoiler


herald of ice / hatred mana reservation enchant - socketed gem lvl corruption if possible

cost: ~4 ex


Gloves:
Spoiler


cost: 1 ex


Chest:
Spoiler
There may be a few different color options you can make work here, the best 2 for Frost Bolt & Freezing Pulse would probably be 4g 1b 1r and 3g 2b 1r. For nova maybe 2g 3b 1r, not sure. The easiest way to get this is probably buying skin of the loyal with the correct color and upgrading them.

cost: 10-20 ex


Boots:
Spoiler

I needed 27% ailment avoidance roll to max it with the setup I'm using, so I crafted these boots rather easily. I started with an ilvl 84 sorcerer boot shaper base, Perfect fossil for 26-30% quality, Enchanted fossil for 50-80% stun avoidance, then I used dense+metallic fossils (defence+lightning) for ES prefix rolls, a decent lightning roll, and avoidance with room for resist craft.

A movement speed roll is not desirable here, if anything I'd prefer more ES -- it is much cheaper to craft these than to buy something

cost: ~few ex range


Belt:
Spoiler

A nice ES belt with dex/str could be a good cheap option, especially with poison sextant since it makes the build so fast even without a headhunter. Alternatively some type of stygian setup with an abyssal giving chaos spell damage, crit multi, ES, or something along those lines (chaos for poison stack generation)

cost: ~55ex or less (hh)


Rings:
Spoiler

Made these by crafting ilvl83 crusader moonstones with dense fossils. Spent a few ex, it would be incredibly more expensive to buy anything off the market so I recommend crafting.

The dex roll with double ES, and double ES with fire res are the only required rolls for my build. But your cluster jewels additional dex/resistance rolls will change this somewhat as well. The Str is needed for molten shell levels and also provides 4% es through gloves.

cost: ~5 ex


Necklace:
Spoiler

Too good to replace, cold pen, blind, and dex with double curse annoint.

cost: 1 ex


Weapon:
Spoiler
Any good high rolled cospri's

cost: 1 ex


Shield:
Spoiler

Spell damage block corruption required for max spell block.

(vortex is on lmb so it's always used while cycloning) (cost: 5-10ex)


Jewels:
Spoiler
Disc spell block & hatred cold pen watcher's about 15 ex, large clusters 8 ex each, medium 2 ex each, smalls 1 ex each. The build needs high dex smalls, you can try to fit your other resistance needs on the rest of the clusters.


*other large clusters should probably be imported into pob to see node placement*


Flasks:
Spoiler


Change the diamond flask mod to a bleed immunity version. I swap atziri's out for rumi's/quicksilver depending on what I'm doing. atziri's for poison mapping, rumi's for boss, quicksilver for heists.

~20 ex bottled faith



Estimated total cost: 140 ex + gems


I would appreciate any alterations or build suggestions you might have utilizing similar core item setups (the chest + grace + cluster interaction for phys reduct & poison setup for fast mapping)
