Why is Annihilation's Approach killing me when I have 1.1k net regen in PoB?

Yeah there is a fair bit of degen in t17's, so probably need to be careful of that when rolling them, GL.
Yeah, the low regen really didn't work out well. Felt way too squishy! In the end I got a Rational Doctrine and that took care of it! Pricey fix but it feels sooo much better. Regen went from 50 to 600!
Nice one, never seen that jewel before. Seems pretty good. Almost unfair to inquisitor. Might actually be good for a build I'm working on.

Rational Doctrine is extremely OP. You basically get the better part of two ascendancies for a single jewel slot! Definitely fixed my build!
Yeah i'm building a crit minion build and I think it would be good. I don't know if I can get the full value though, because would need to level out strength and intelligence. I don't think I can do that realistically. Is that how it works? Looks good even if just using only one of the mods, but I also have zealotry so it might be doubling up on conc ground. I'm also a bit short on spare jewel sockets. If I need another defensive aura it might be very good, so I'll keep it in mind. Had not seen it before.

My zealotry isn't proccing very much. This might work if I get a bit more crit on build. Bottled faith might also be an option. Seems like it is pretty op for strength builds. I've got 200 less strength than int, can probably level them out but i'm not sure if its going to be worth it. I would need to swap to my glorious vanity to lethal pride which is possible but messes with res a bit too much. Think bottled faith is a better fit. Seems really good gem though. Would like to try it out on my RF Jugg.

You can always slap some "useless" tattoos on stat nodes to balance attributes, which would then allow you to keep your timeless jewel and wouldnt change too much.

If you can find some beneficial tattoos for your build - even better.

Yeah that's true.
Yeah I see what you mean, I looked into more and you're right. I have avoided using tattoos on any of my builds, because I thought they were too powerful while playing ruthless and were not going core. Since they have become a core component now, I probably need to incorporate them, because it is too powerful not to use. Mainly I didn't want to start making builds that we're not repeatable. There are heaps of beneficial ones.

Just confirming, if you have strength and int both equal you with get both benifits of the jewel? Like you do with wise oak and other mechanics with this wording?

Accoring to wiki - yes

If Strength and Intelligence are tied for highest attribute, both Consecrated Ground and Profane Ground can be created.
