i'm not a huge fan of leveling trees that require 10+ more regrets than you get from the main quests...


the alternative is go elemental bfbb and follow the AM tree as much as possible, leveling was nearly 30 minutes slower for me on a 4:26:08 run and I felt a lot less safe due to the nature of bfbb.

Yeah, I think I'll have to get a jewel eventually. I'm hoping league mech will be an easy way to get one like it was last time, because I don't particularly want to blow through all my vaals on every jewel I see on SSF.

Do people usually chance their essence worms, btw? Or is it common enough that you tend to get at least one during atlas prog without having to really go out of your way?
H!
Thanks for the build, it's nice. I'm at the end of the leveling, trying to find some nice maces to go archmage, and in paralell I try to figure aout fortify.

I try to use the general's cry setup, but I do not get the buff. My mirage warriors got fortify, but not me.

What am I doing wrong? Please help :)

Do you have The Vigil jewel socketed in your tree?

it's very unlikely to chance sadly, it's RNG for the most part. There's a DIV card from cells but imo it's not worth spending time on that layout

Edit: to Clarify (no pun intended) further, clarity is a massive QoL and when paired with a Clarity watcher's eye is worth the damage loss for the regen and extra tankiness.

Hello,

Great build so far, level 81 with 5.3k mana.

Few questions on my side (maybe stupid ones sorry about that) :

1 - How does the vigilant strike setup works ? Do you have to self cast it ? I don't get it.

2 - When do I need to switch on Agnostic + MoM (How to reach a comfortable amount of mana regen?)


Thanks in advance !

Best Regards,
I chose this as my starter after not playing for over 2 years, and I'm having a hard time because there is no gear to follow.. I want to keep playing this but I can't really progress at this point

Gear is in PoB (community fork) -> Items.

Thanks to the author for this build, I hope I will enjoy it once I respec, never played BF/BB =)
Quite a lot of respec points needed btw, how do we get that much (ssf) ?
