What is the current recommendation for the large clusters?
One minion and one block? Minion one is straightforward. But the block one is confusing.
Guide offers a choice of two clusters. I tried getting one with the veteran defender. But turns out it is impossible to get Veteran Defender notable in the accessible part if you use Prodigious Defence. Which is a huge bummer. Looks like Veteran Defender - Riot Queller is the only option. But there are no such clusters on trade. :(


If you cant find/craft a riot queller+veteran defender I have found calamitous to be the next best thing (Freeze/Shock/Ignite + increased effect of non-damaging ailments).

The other skills that don't have VD in the middle are all but useless for the build.
Spoiler
CONFIRMED VD IN MIDDLE:
smite t w + strike leader
smite t w + prodigious def
smite t w + advance guard
martial prowness + strike leader
martial prowness + advance guard
precise retaliation + heavy hitter
precise retaliation + martial prowness
advance guard + heavy hitter
strike leader + heavy hitter
PD + heavy hitter
PD + martial prowness

CONFIRMED VD ON SIDE (underline middle):
martial prowness + riot queller
smite t w + riot queller
martial p + calamitious
smite t w + calamitious
heavy hitter + calamitious

smite t w + drive the destruction
martial p + fuel the fight
smite t w + fed the fury
heavy hitter + fuel the fight
martial p + drive the d
heavy hit + feed t fury
smite t w + fuel t f


If Chromino wants to update the OP at least martial prowness is 1:1 with smite the weak when combined to riot queller+VD, while alternatively martial prowness/smite the weak/heavy hitter and calamitous combo is the next best thing that doesn't leave veteran defender to the middle.

Sadly I have yet to find a combo that would work with prodigious defence + VD (heavy hitter/martial prowness force VD to the middle) - please let me know if you find new combinations!

So in short, martial prowness or smite t w + riot quller is BiS, and calamitous is the best alternative.

You can use flask charge anointment on necklace, or I guess minor pantheon. I personally just recharge with cws curse and re-pop the worms at the start of the meteorite attack before I escape.

I've made a lot of progress and have completed Sirus, Elder, Shaper, all T16 maps, maxed atlas passives, etc. I've tried Maven and Uber elder and failed both times.

I wonder what my next improvement would be? I feel like if I swapped gloves to a rare type I'd lose dmg (Only at just over 5 million now), but gain a lot of survivability due to ES.

Not sure if determination Aegis is next step or level 4 empower or spending exalts to level to 100....

Looking for some feedback for my next improvements.

What gears should i update to have more DPS please




my DPS on Pob only around 1mil and I am not sure what to upgrade . Thank you
Divergent HOA, Empower lvl4, make sure you have 60 virulences, change out awakened splash (for multistrike) and pierce (for vile toxins) on single target (ie boss). Those are the basic changes, all other options covered in the guide.

Thank you, i have 60 virulences but so hard to hit it, most of the time i only get 30ish because the lightning ball is so hard to cast. should i switch to vortex?

So, most of your damage should be coming from the crawler and not ball lightning. I see tail spike (main one for crawler) at 4m DPS with 60 viru, 15 withered and 8 stacks on poison on enemy. There's probably some other settings to get more accurate, but I'm not an expert at POB.

I see you have 100% chance to poison, make sure you are using storm brand on single targets to help get more viru on them quickly. Without hitting 60 viru you are going to lose a ton of damage (down to 1m for you at 30 viru). Your problem isn't uncommon with the build, just need to adjust to a style that fits for you and maxes out those virulences.

Personally I prefer to use cyclone for mapping and storm burst for single target. Takes an extra second to switch, but storm burst gets me to 60 viru almost instantly.
here i come with the BIS boots for the build !!
61% ailment avoidance! complements well the 40 from the tree !
if you cant find ailment avoidance on rings or want to run other mods like mana regen and cant find them together u can use those boots, they give flexibility
And dont even get me started on the action speed...!! im speedy gonzales now that mod's is like a more on cast speed and movement speed its crazy

just paste that to your pob

I just bought a Mageblood but I misread it. It doesn't automatically use Rumi's or Bottled Faith. Should I sell it and just buy a corrupted one that uses 2 leftmost flasks?
