Augmentation also annuling a mod seems like a deal breaker...

Yes, that method will no longer work.


You now have two choices.

Option #1: Expensive but expedient.

Buy any 8 passive cluster with riot queller from trade. Fill it with 4 mods by exalt slamming. Fracture the item, and hope you hit the 25% chance to hit riot queller. Average total cost of this is 17.2 divine.

Spam harvest reforge defense until you get veteran defender and any other notable.

Option #2: Alt-Regal for it.

Explanatory. Alt for riot queller. Imprint. Then aug until you get any suffix noteable. If you don't get it, restore and reimprint.

once you have both on your cluster, imprint again and then regal until you get the 3rd.

Really enjoying this build, I'm still min-maxing it, got a bit more to go.
Elemental Avoidance is a 100%, max resists are at 86%. Energy shield is still lacking a bit at 4.45K, prefer it 4.5K+

Here is my equipment


Flasks


POB (updated)


I still die now and then, I think I have low block chance therefore ES on Block activates sparsely because I block less times. Maybe get a medium cluster with block chance instead of elemental resists? (They all sit at +44 extra)


EDIT:

So I removed a point from the Poison Mastery wheel, removed a Cult-Leader allocation and now I have 2 unspent skill points.

Removed one a split personality which removed around 150 Energy shield BUT
I added instead a small cluster jewel Mystical Ward.

Mystical Ward


Full Small Cluster Jewel Stats/Mods:


So Effectively I traded:

-15% poison chance with spell
-150 ES
-A bit less minion damage

with:

-5% more chance to block spell damage
-120 ES (-30 less than I had)
-0.3% of spell damage leeched as ES
-1.5% per second regenerated ES


I don't know if I done it right but being still level 95 I had limited room to play in and move around with clusters.

One strange problem I have is that my Block chance (not spell block chance) alters between 37% and 87% strangely, a second at 37% and a second at 87%, have yet to find what's really causing this massive shift of blocking chance.

EDIT 2:

Got through The Maven Invitation: The formed (after killing all shaper guardians) and died only once, when with my previous build it was impossible.

Noob question, when levelling what do I need to make storm brand poison?

*edit, never mind, figured it out when got a staff with chaos damage to spells. All good. :)

Thank you very much VahnNoa for the great explanation and update!

Am I allowed to add it page 50 in the crafting-guides?

Hehe, and when you are experienced with craftings, could you explain how to craft most easy / best the eldritch-boots with movementspeed, 35% ailment-avoidances (essence) /or empty suffix for benchcraft 25%, 1-2× resis and high es 160-230?
I am not that much experienced with craftings.

Hi Chromino

Can you advise about my build. Why should i upgrade next to make it more tankier? I feel like its less tanky compared to before medling of the flesh.

Hi Chaoswind!

Great to see you - Here we crawl again!

I wish you a crawly '23er and a wonderful and strong year!

I guess it is the Iron Reflexes on Skin of the Lords - that is great tanky against singletargets, but lowers your evasion to 0 in maps etc...
In maps and all other content ghost dance is much more tanky.

inf* ehp, spellblock 75%, 84% overcapped resis, 100% ailment-avoidances, 4k es - that is all looking great.

54 Unreserved mana is a bit low - so some skills will not procc and you cannot use vile toxins singletarget.

84% resis - very good, but you could add in winterprowler +2 for +86 when you obtain better medium clusters and perhaps go without runebinder for a passive more.

Did you maxed pantheons? Burning ground is a bit different to ailment-immunities. And don't use hard atlas-passives like "wrath of the cosmos". The "checklist defences" often shows what stat is missing or which map/altar-mods are dangereous, some I cannot check with pob.

Feel free to do so.

Edit: Just saw your question. I'll work on a write up.

You probably want to add though that ALL the medium clusters for minions can be very easily crafted by spamming bound fossils on them. It's actually crazy how easy they are to craft.

For the Boots:

Start with sorcerer boots with a fractured high tier resist
Step 1 is the implicits.

Start with a sorcerer boots with a high tier fractured elemental res
1) Spam Grand Ichors until you get 24-26% avoid elemental ailments.
2) Use a lesser ember on it.
3) Use an orb of domination. If you upgrade the avoid elemental ailments, proceed to step 5. If not revert to step 1
4) If you have to have 30-32% avoid elemental ailments as implicit, repeat step 3 until you upgrade it once again.
6) Once your avoid is at the proper tier, use t4 embers until you get an implicit you can live with, probably movement speed.
7) Spam deafening essence of loathing until you get another high tier resistance AND t1 flat or t1 % energy shield
8)If you have open prefixes, craft suffix cannot be changed. If you do not, use an eldrich annul AS LONG AS EATER is dominant. Your goal is to get the t1 defense mod alone. If you annul T1 defense, go back to step 7.
9) Now that you have t1 defense alone and have crafted suffixes can't be changed, aisling for a 50/50 chance to remove suffixes cant be changed. If this removes your t1 defense, back to step 7. DO NOT UNVEIL
10) Craft max mana on your item to block. NOW UNVEIL. hope for MS. If you unveil anything else, back to step 8. If you annul t1 defense, back to step 7.
11) If you hit MS, craft either flat or % ES and finish.

Hey!

Great guide, really loving it!

Could you help me out with the move to United in Dreams? I don't understand where the curse should come from.

I currently have 4W Triads & Divine Shield on Skin. Already using Mending of the flesh!

Also, I can't use Envy with my current setup. How would you improve my mana for that?

Hi guys,

I am still new to the game and working on tuning my character in this build. I also need to understand all the layers of defense better. I looked at the checklist of defenses and understand most of them. Some I do not. I am still getting killed more often than what I like. Usually one shotted by something. I know I don't have corrupted blood yet on my jewel. None have been for sale. So i would like to know what are my defensive layer holes? What would be the best steps in plugging the defensive layer holes?

The beam from Shock and Horror Mineral pools boss quickly drains my ES.
The Constrictor and the Hydra each had attacks that one shotted me. I beat them both. Constrictor got me low a few times.
