[3.25] The Jedi - Resurrected | Static Strike Hierophant | EE swords | Doryani's Prototype

Quick question, why astramentis?

seems like using an unique amulet makes it really hard to get decent resists, plus we could potentially get a pretty decent amulet for ES with some moderate crafting maybe?

VERY interested in this build... would love to see some progression notes from lvl 1 to endgame, or if you could give a quick debrief on what passives to hit first early on and what starter skills should be used.

thanks!

I've never levelled with this build, so I can't guarantee the quality of gameplay at this moment.
I'm currently testing the Rage Vortex version in juicy T16 to improve it the best I can. Tankiness is ok, but DPS is not great. It's fun to play (because Jedi) but it's not meta, by far.

This said, for levelling, I'd go first to MoM, then Elemental Overload, then Heart of Thunder, then go down to Berserking (if you go Rage Vortex).
The build is mostly a matter of stacking Intelligence, ES and Mana.

And at the moment, the Lightning Strike version is safer to play. I still need to improve the Rage Vortex setup.

That could be a Blue Pearl amulet, for mana regen as implicit.
But assuming you get max ES roll on the amulet (+flat and inc max), you are way below Astramentis DPS-wise (I've just made a simulation in PoB).

+120 to all attributes with Astramentis is massive, because Intelligence grants ES and Mana, which are more life for us. And through Crown of the Inward Eye, this is more DPS.

Yea that does make sense. Liking the build so far (just reached maps). Getting that resist cap with only 4 pieces of gear will be tricky though

Maybe equip a rare belt and only when you've got enough res elsewhere, use the Cyclopean Coil.

Yea, so far things are going well.
Damage is pretty decent at the moment, survivability is a bit weak still though, what would you consider the core things to get in order to stay alive?

I often have stun and freeze issues. So completing Major Pantheon of the Brine King should be useful.
I need to do that, btw.

Also, I've realized that the Cyclopean Coil makes you immune to Shock and Ignite (provided your STR > DEX), so it's important, too.
Eldritch Battery can be good when paired with MoM, and even better with Corrupted Soul, because any dmg you receive is split between ES and life, while you leech bot (make sure you have life, mana and ES leech).

I'm testing a reworked skill tree with more jewel sockets, which would allow to cap the res more easily.
Also, someone on Reddit suggested me to use the new Ghostwrithe body armour (+50% chaos res, half of your life is converted to ES).
Here is a theoretical PoB with these features and 12 jewels sockets :

(jewels are mainly placeholders)

8 sockets in the current version :

Currently, the Ghostwrithe is way cheaper than a 750 ES body if you play in league. In Standard, it's more expensive at the moment.

I actually used the Ghostwrithe for leveling up until I got my 6 links, it helped A TON, but haven't thought about using it in the final build due to the resist cap. Will take a look at this modified tree then

On Reddit, someone asked me whether this build is doable with 40 divines in league.
Here is a quick, estimated, budget :

TL;DR : yes, it is possible.

- A 6L 2h weapon : 5c
- A 700ES 6L body : 3 divines OR : 6L Ghostwrithe : 2 divines
- Astramentis amulet : 50c
- Crown of the Inward Eye : 10c
- Cyclopean Coil belt and Shaper's gloves : 2c
- Lethal Pride timeless jewel of Akoya : 15c (for the Rage Vortex version) OR Glorious Vanity of Doryani (for the Lightning Strike version) : 20c

A you can see, the only expensive item is the body armour. Rest of the stuff is quite affordable. I haven't taken the cluster jewels into account, but I'm sure a 40 div budget is more than enough to get going.

Hi Exiles,

Here is a new video with the dark side version of the build, using Rage Vortex :

The Dark Path

A tough Delirium Cold River with the Enslaver.
With some epic Star Wars music, as always ;)

Hope you like it !
