Is there a way you can fit purity of elements in this build? I think in some post someone did it, maybe I'm wrong.

" Yes, I use it and it's a great addition. Monk390 uses it in his variant (which is what I play): https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3019705/page/334#p24447710 |

" Yes, that price is top peak high. First league for the shield with this price and it's not easy to get it fast. Last edited by Chromino#4813 on May 26, 2022, 3:02:05 AM

Damn, this is probably the weakspot of this build. You can go without so many things, but lack of Aegis kills survivability.
Edit: I ignored survivability. I got cheapest Arakaali's and turned on dmg auras. If I can't get tanky, I just have to make them not hit me. Still, this league feels so bad... Last edited by Fukurokage#1292 on May 27, 2022, 3:41:56 AM

Here's a mana tip for those having issues. Not sure if this has been mentioned before.
Get -3 to mana cost of skills on one of your nostalgia rings. It makes a HUGE difference. |

" Rare shields with 5% es recovery on block, or even a cheap Whakatutuki o Matua Tarnished Spirit Shield are enough for Red t16 maps. But in full juiced deliriums, deeper delve and simulacrum 25-30 an aegis aurora is far the best in slot with almost double recovery, yes. Hehe, and yes, when you map a bit slower the huge aoe of hoag stings all mobs down before they reach in close range. Last edited by Chromino#4813 on May 28, 2022, 3:57:54 AM

Anyone know of any way to make this build viable without Aegis Aurora and Aul's (which are both ridiculously expensive?) Damage is mediocre but survivability is trash...
|
|
" Aegis, without the corruption, is a massive increase in survivability. A rare shield with %ES on block is a good substitute until then. You don't need the Auls, you can either ignore grace (and accept some deaths due to it) or get mana efficiency on items and skill tree to make up for it. Pretty easy to get 9-10% efficiency on a helm (plus the Hoag lab enchant), then get all 3 small cluster nodes for discipline, grace and determination (make sure they are the reservation version and not energy shield, and you want 3 passives). If you need more, get 25% increased effect on those small clusters. |

So I am kitted out a fair bit so far.
My survivability is great, I only die if I try to tank dumb stuff for far longer than I should. My only issue is my boss damage seems a little 'meh'. I don't have my second cluster yet so I am losing out a fair bit on that at the moment, my Kit overall is OK but wondering where I should make improvements on to push my builds damage? I was thinking of swapping to TT gloves, but then I need to look to get dex elsewhere (again I was planning on doing this with a good secondary cluster setup) |
|
|
Edit:
Yeah I have found the damage is really low even with substantial investment. Going to grind to a second cluster (for damage and dex) so I can go and swap in TT(4white) and see the difference, if not S> Aegis/Aul's Uprising :D |
