⛵☁️[3.25] The Arachnophobia Allstars| Chaos Guardian CI|The dirty Scorpion-tail|Herald of Agony 150M+
" Hehe :-) I only wanted to show also why I think it's not the most fast starter, but as well a good and cheap starter as guardian (other classes are faster, yes of course. I never saw a guardian win a gauntlet last year even with the nice attractive onslaught buff). No problem and interesting to discuss or analyze the downs and ups of course! 😀 Last edited by Chromino on Oct 27, 2021, 6:03:56 AM

I also had the issue with summoned spiders getting killed by my minions. A very good solution to this problem has been using Divine Ire to kill the mobs. It's a channeling skill and all the worms in the area get killed instantly. You also do not need to time it. Just cast Desecrate and hold Divine Ire and summon the worms.

" Are those: Extreme mapping QoL. Still costs like 10c. Guildie suggested using these gloves with HH, and I completely agree with him. Edit: there are recover life/ES on kill passive nodes, cheap to anoint like Vampirism (life) and Soul Thief (ES) - works extremely well and can help quite a lot.

" I would like to disagree here and share my experience. 1. Your damage on a low budget. Talking about damage of our build - right now I have large cluster for minion dmg + 1 small cluster with cult-leader and pure agony, and my righs are without crawler damage (and I don't have arakali). And as a result I'm strugglign a lot with map boss time to kill on rare t15-16. Taking into account that I bought 2 rings with HoA efficiency for ~45c each and Memory Valut with 75% efficiency for HoA for 2ex just in order to afford 6link herald (otherwise you need to turn off one of your defence aura), I think that it's higher that 150c while still a bit weak for t16. As a result, I think that on low budget ~3ex you can feel comfortable somewhere around t7. 2. Clearing speed on a low budget. Here things are a bit even worse than boss damage from my experience. Until you will have arakalli, you need to use skeles (or something else). And since you wasn't invested almost anything expect a couple of passives into minion damage they will feel pretty weak. I'm using dom blow for now and it's a bit better, but far far away from good clearspeed like TR or this build with Arakali. As soon as you get arakali - it's amazing. 3. Defences on a low budget. Defences is on of the strongest part - even with 50c budget you will feel pretty inkillable until you reach very high-level content. it's just perfect. But again, this is just my personal experience :) Last edited by sergei_serebro on Oct 27, 2021, 7:08:50 AM

i just got arakali's dagger and wow, it turns into a completely different build, easy and fast mapping, melting map bosses and killing awakener 8 conquerors easily (not so fast though).
only have 2 damage wheels from passive tree and 2 cluster damage wheels atm, using rumi's concontion for extra block, unkillable. never played a build that plays this well, amazing guide too. gg |

I've seen you listed Cold Iron Point as alternative for arakaali's dagger, can you confirm that "Deal no Elemental Damage" from Cold Iron Point doesn't ruin ball lightning/stormbrand chance to poison since it deals no elemental damage?

" Okay wow! That's even better for mapping. For bossing I will still use Divine Ire, because the gloves don't provide much defense. Thanks! |

" Hi Alexnenarus, sorry for late answering, I check pob's only on desktop, so it can take some times and a moment. DoomDoomBear does deal: 1.3 M HoA damage, 55 virulences, spiders 0.8 M damage, 2.1 M total (100k is probably of not checking pob-settings like ascendancy buffs, virulences, poisons for vile toxins, witherstacks, hoA tailspike, see spoiler "choose your edition" --> "PoB" etc.) That is not optimal, yes. You can easy improve the damage step by step. Your damage would be buffed best with 1x more pure agony medium cluster 0.6 M, Skin of the Lords +2 gemlevels 0.6M (you get nice ones for 20 chaos), Empower level 4 is very expensive since 3.15, but offers 0.6 M more damage too. A better amulet with +1 or best +2 gemlevels would offer 0.3M / 0.6M damage too. A Divergent cast when stunned would proc 20% better 1.2 M damage of spirit offering and sniper's mark, anomalous ball-lightnings offers more cast speed = more virulences = more damage Get faster casting integrated in rare gloves for more virulences too. Most important: Change urgent vile toxins to pierce or awakened fork in maps for 4x / 6x HoA damage of piercing / forking projectiles in maps!! Use vile toxins only singletarget against last bosses like Sirus, shaper etc. For some other buffs take a look into the "checklist damage"-spoiler. Awakaned minion damage +1 gemlevel 0.3M damage, activate redemption 0.3 M damage etc. Often it's about virulences: generate maximal virulences, see numbers of the green HoA icon and section gloves in "gear skills links" and you need urgent the golden rule for virulences singletarget!
