In the tips for leveling and league start section it's recommended to use Astramentis. Gives a ton of ES between the es boost from Intel, mana boost from Intel which is then converted to es, and also from strength to ES if also using shapers touch.

A rare amulet is an option too. Can get resists if lacking those on other gear along with es, mana, etc. There's a lot of possibilities with influenced amulets too. I'm currently using a shaper amulet with spell block and reduced aura reservation. There's other mods that might be interesting too. +1 dex gems, +1 phys gems, grants determination, grace, etc., determination or grace have 25% reduced reservation.
Love the build, but can you help?

I keep getting oneshot all the time in T15-16 maps. Mostly in ultimatums or bosses. I have flasks up all the time, try to avoid bad map mods and always use vaal disc and grace in bad situations but I still die a lot.

I know I'm still missing some clusters and will get them next when I get currency but apart from split personalities they mostly add dmg.

Any tips?

Your gear is fine, flasks and ring you can improve.

Did you checked in "faq / checklists" the list for stats like full maxed pantheon, corrupted blood immunity?

I take a look later on pob. Thank you and let them crawl!

Hi Chromino,

I am very satisfied with the build, yesterday I did Sirus 9 without taking any risks, Die is not able to kill me, I would like your evaluation on my build. I do not intend to exchange the amulet and chest, I will still put on a Megalomaniac, but I still haven't found a decent one on the market.
Congratulations for the great and solid build.

Edited/ you need following stats:

- "Corrupted blood" can kill you very fast, take an implicit on a cluster or jewel. Until that spam your anti-bleeding flask often.

- When you are 100% ignite-immune with the minor pantheon, take increased armour as flask suffix instead anti-ignite. Try out a sulphur flask against degen and dot in your cooldowns of time of need and vaal discipline. Optimal is bottled faith with large aoe and damage also, but it's expensive. Take flask-suffixes like "charges gain when hit" or "on critical strike" also. Perhaps a rare granite flask instead lion's roar with increased armour as suffix is also a possibility.

- Split personality will add energy-shield, circa 7000-7500 es are needed and more is better. You have some passives with es and mana instead, on page 50 is a spoiler "energy-shield" with all factors:
https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3019705/page/50

Your energy-shield 7900 is fine and enough, take a look in the "faq"-checklist if some other important stats are missing.

Your gear is great and skills fine too!
Armour could be a bit more and the belt and ring a bit better.

Hi Radius,

your build and gear is very fine and great!

55 virulences, 3.2 mill vile toxin 3.9 mill, spiders 1.45 mill with melee physical

Your amulet is offering a lot damage. A better watcher's eye is hard and expensive to get, perhaps enduring composure on a small cluster would be nice (perhaps instead basalt flask). For Level 93 it's a very, very good setup!

I think you balanced very well. Only when you do lvl 98-100 in high tier maps you need a bit more defences.


Thank you a lot too! It's for me a pleasure too when the build is fun and interesting, yuchuuu! Tank them all!

I got to level 91 without cluster jewels and other nice upgrades and yes very good up to Tier 11 maps.
After that, things get dicey and ended up dying to random 1-shots and in Ultimatums.

Prices for upgrades were too high so I spent some time levelling up a Ground Slam Beserker and Earthshatter Champion instead.

Prices didn't really come down that much but I had saved up enough Exalts to transition into Cluster jewels / clarity Watcher's Eye / int/mana Split Personalities which cost around 8ex.
Another 100C for a Blue Nightmare and another Ex for a Golden Rule with Corrupted Blood immunity. So close to 10ex.

I tried using 2 large cluster jewels but this gutted my Energy shield / Armour so just used the one.

The mana reservation enchant for Herald of Agony on a Memory Vault was surprisingly affordable so I picked that up, got another Circle of Nostalgia and was able to cast Discipline aura.

I decided to try and get a degree of elemental immunity by using a Cyclopean coil (shock/ignite) and a pair of boots with Freeze immunity.

I used the points freed up from the Anointed Flesh nodes towards getting Unwavering Stance for Stun immunity as I found myself getting permastunned despite Soul of the Brine King.
As a result I had to switch out Divergent Cast When Stunned Support gem to CWDT instead.

I also decided to get an Anvil amulet as suggested by another player and I think it's really helped especially in Ultimatums.

I grabbed the Utmost Intellect node near the cluster jewel for a big boost in Int, which along with the Cyclopean coil increased my Int to over 700.

So currently sitting at 8666 ES and 52k armour without flasks.

This helped me kill A3 Sirius for the first time. Could tank most things fairly easily. The only thing that killed me was the 3 ring maze which I didn't get out of in time.

I'm still using Vigilant Strike for Fortify in Ultimatums and hardly ever have to touch my Vaal Discipline / Haste.

Next upgrades would be a Spell block Aegis, Divergent CWDT gem, a Meglomaniac jewel with Pure Agony & Enduring Composure, and the Skin of the Loyal Iron Reflexes / Aul's Uprising Grace amulet.

The last three are unlikely however!

More likely will just be a Medium Cluster Jewel with either Pure Agony / Cult-Leader or Enduring Composure / Stalwart Commander / Some Mana boost

Hi Chromino,

Thanks for the built! I finally resolve the one-shot issue. Went from lv 94 to lv 95 without a single death!

Standing at 8k Energy with 181K armor on character screen. Doesn't really feel invisible yet (especially against big damage), but can be quickly recovered with vaal discipline.

I still have quite a bit to go in terms of tankiness and damage. But for the first time I feel I can beat Sirius lol.

Oh ya, I thought vivinsect ring with grace (+5 level with no extra mana cost coz aul) gives quite a lot of armour as well (and stats). Will be using that until i find a really good rare ring. It brought my mana cost of ball lightning to be around 10+ as well.

Hi Belain,

yes, some bis- gear is still expensive, but prices are dropping now like each league after a while.

Congrats to Sirus!

Of course, cwdt has the downside it is not often proccing on high levels or limited to low level-skills and unwavering stance is perhaps nice for using cyclone, but with spellecho the microstsuns are no problems and you max out the capacities of your molten shell and frostshield with evasion, dodges and blindings and get less stuns / ailments too.
Some bosses can freeze you, there you need antifreeze. Stun you can reduce also, but I personally had until level 100 myself no problems with stuns, only 1 x with hitted by ranged attacks and their microstuns in very bad multiple damagemods-map. You can get stunavoidances as implicits on clusterjewels in harvest or on rare boots and boot-enchant and get 5 passives free and you have 50% immunity as CI always too.

Cyclopean belt is a nice alternative, especially when you get it with resistances. Anvil is nice for starting too.

I would advice to:

- spellblock on shield or rainbow stride boots to cap spellblock and get another bottle instead Rumi's (like you write)

- you get a clusters with only 1x pure agony (without cult-leader) often very cheap for starting on budget with more damage on another cluster

- 3 points cursed concoction, 3 points prodigal perfection and 5 points unwavering stance are not optimal. For starting and levelling okay and fine, but later you need probably more optimizations.

- perhaps try phase acrobatics on skin of the lords, it's very tanky too, not expensive and a strong upgrade until level 98 and above.

Very nice, fun and interesting trying out the skills and gear and passives!
