curse bot theory

https://pastebin.com/uJYT8rxp

The build focuses on getting as much curse effect as possible with 4 curses.
If you are super rich with better voices, lots of mana reserved jewels and a mana reserved anoint on your +1 curse amulet it can use a +1 curse chest to reach 5 curses without dropping curse effect.

Cost of the build can vary greatly on how far you want to push the numbers or if you don't make some things yourself, but this version should be doable in about 20-30 EX, I have about 2/3 of the gear already with 18 EX spent. The "budget" version is probably 5-10 EX but that's still a-lot more achievable for most players. drop one or two voices, the Atziri shield, use a basic +1 curse chest or corrupted amulet, and use lvl 3 empower/enlighten/enhance.

This has zero offensive capabilities of it's own.


The build relies on Enfeeble and Temp Chains for most of its defenses, but capping res and getting dodge is still good. Use a String Of servitude until you can find a triple T1 res belt to catalyze, and the rest comes from jewels. Phase acrobatics is fantastic as spells bypass the reduced accuracy from Enfeeble but there aren't enough points to get it on tree so use a Perfect Form or Skin of the Lords, in combination with Vaal Grace and a quartz flask for capped dodge and spell dodge. That said try to manually avoid as much as possible, unlike aura bots if a rare mob or boss does manage to touch you it will most likely one shot you.

Movement speed comes from a beefed up Phase Run, flask, and Vaal haste for 195% with everything up


here's some POB numbers on the 3 curses you would almost always run; the forth can be whatever your carry wants you to use.

Enfeeble accuracy reduction
mobs- 124% = 95% evasion rating
bosses- 83% = 69% evasion rating
shaper- 42% = 36% evasion rating

Enfeeble damage reduction
mobs- 184%
bosses- 61%
shaper- 31%

Temp Chains reduced action speed
mobs- 178%
bosses- 58%
shaper- 29%


Elemental Weakness minus all elemental resistance
mobs- 271
bosses- 181
shaper- 92



This is still being put together and will not be finished before Heist merges to standard, but i do plan on finishing it.
