GhazzyTV - Essence Drain & Contagion (or Bane/Soulrend) Trickster [SC/HC/Uber Elder/Shaper]
" Matter of taste, it's not just having a large mana pool, it's sustaining it as well :) " I apprecaite it <3 " Oh, sorry to hear about your injury, glad you like the build though! Well, Contagion is literally just how you proliferate your actual DMG, scaling Contagion is kind of "mjeh" imo. You can save a socket slot and add something else there imo, golem/Vaal Lightning Trap/Flame Dash etc etc " Looking at your character it looks fully MF geared, which means you lack tons of eHP to survive the Vault Boss, he can hit stupidly hard during the stone drop phase as well :S " Life is a bit low but not by much. How's your mana? Are you able to sustain the 30% MoM (Life * 0.428 = required unreserved mana) Regarding 21/20 ED, I personally prefer getting it myself :) " Hey, Clarity & Blasphemy reserves your mana pool. Some prefer not to reserve anything at all which makes hitting the unreserved mana pool far easier but you lose the quality of life having Enfeeble or the eHP sustaining help provided by a Clarity. Aylardex is alright to use, keep in mind the calculation of your mana pool shifts with the extra "MoM Effect per power charge". The amulet is a matter of taste, Aylardex/Bisco's Collar/Rare doesn't matter tbh, it matters what you prefer to play with :) Evasion is literally what ever for this build even with the Skin otL, so you're all good there! Life/Mana looks good and sustainable, I think the Enfeeble addition will help you a lot with surviving, or Temporal Chains if you prefer. A rare amulet providing spell dmg and/or Chaos dmg will improve dmg output, so will impressence of chayula same with Essence of Envy crafted rings (chaos dmg). " I always prefer to use a Tabula for this build specifically, try to get a +1 lvl of gems corrupted one, it's cheaper than a 6L CoD :) " Cheers for helping out shell <3 " Can use an Abyssal Jewel with some spell or chaos dmg mods and high flat mana :) " Now that's a dangerous fight if they have extra dmg mods :S " ^^^^ " Potency of Will is there for QoL and to help sustain your "rotation" vs bosses, not really needed till later if you don't want the QoL addition. Priority question; Life as long as your mana is enough to sustain what ever #% MoM effect you have, if you are below then mana is higher valued than life for the sake of actually having proper eHP based of your characters current state. " Think the belt is the cheapest to upgrade for more life, though I would prefer to start with the jewelleries as they are very bad on the life rolls and then you can balance the resistances easier with the belt purchase afterwards. " This confusion is coming to an end! After posting this I'm beginning the project to create the updated video guide for this build, it will be uploaded in a couple of hours depending on how long it'll take me. I've recieved over 100 clips from people playing this build so I will do my best to find the best way to utilize the footages for the update! Guides: https://www.poe-vault.com/guides/ghazzy-guide-hub

Level 84, can ya give me some recommendations ...I know I need helm enchant , still need the last of the 6 assendancies so I can do Uber and get the good enchant. In process of looking for upgrades to Amulet and ring. i actually have a better ring and Amulet but they lack the dex and strength which both always seem to be a problem for me.

Got me the updates as previously mentioned - running a +1 Tab, +3 empower and a (poorly rolled) BoTC. Also added in a (poorly rolled) Bisco's for good measure.
I've never taken a build beyond old T11 shaped strand before - think I'm going to do the endgame with this (even if there are more effecient builds, I enjoy this one). Gear is below. Will swap out the shield for a Rathpith when I can be bothered. Not having much luck with map drops so still in whites at lvl 80. My shield has slightly better block (I think) but the ressies are useless to me as I'm capped elsewhere. The Rathpith has loads more damage, but the shield has that sweet background >_> Absolutely 0 optimisation so far, but I'm enjoying the build! Any ideas what I should be going for next? I find gearing to be a bit of a pain at this point because as soon as you take 1 item off, you break your build.... |

Hey guys,
The video update for this build guide is being rendered! Will post when it's uploaded :D " Hey, Of course; Try getting high dexterity on your amulet, strength shouldn't be a problem with a proper belt. You don't have to lvl up Shield Charge as it won't do any difference for this build, which requires far less strength! I'd recommend speccing out of some of the mana nodes & pick up 2 more jewel slots to use "Spreading Rot Jewel" with to further sort your single target / boss dps. " Hey, Sounds awesome bro, glad you're enjoying it! Sweet background can be hard to give up :< Well, your Ruby ring has 0 life on it, that's a good place to start upgrading!

Hi Guys,
As 95 level with this build I have to tell ya, that it's just awesome. Generally, it's breezing through all the content till T16 without any problem and generally deathless. Generally means I died twice at level 93, and never at level 94 even though i was doing only t12+ maps. What's more fun, I was doing this by playing recklessly , that is running into few packs of mobs and casting ED from inside and all in ... Magic Find gear:) Yeah, this build is really tanky. I'm now at 6,8k hp + 0,9 ES + 0,6k unresered mana (due to dual curse temporal chains and enffeble). Combine this with meaningful evasion and armor, and only few bosses pose any threat when you're not carefull. My biggest advice, that I can share and really changed the build, is getting the highest level of Essence Drain. Between level 93 and 95 i switched from ED level 20 to ED level 28 (staff +3 + Empower lvl 4 + corrupted ED level 21). This boosted my damage by ...2,5x times! Yeah, when you kill bosses really fast, than it's hard to die:) Especially when the boss is busy with minions from Vaal Skeletons. And 1 more remark here: after strenghtening ED so much, I totally resigned from Allelopathy (only for Shaper use). The damage from ED is so high, you don't need to use Blight. By doing this you don't have to stay close to boss = greatly reduced chance to be killed :) As a result, I often kill bosses from outside of screen while my skeletons keep it busy, so there's no way you can die:) Here's my "boss mode" gear if you're interested. Of course for generall mapping + 80% of bosses I use magic find jewelry (Bisco's + Ventor's Gamble). The gear might look expensive, but i got it only from mapping. Once you open you shop and offer for sales some maps/drops, You quickly get to earning 1 ex for 1-2 hour of playing. Good luck to all! Последняя редакция: ziuteczek123456#5724.

" Looking truly solid :D Cheers for sharing! Though Blight with Spreading Rot would increase the chaos dmg taken by the bosses which is insanely effective as it provides 25%*2 (50%) increased damage taken which is based of the final damage you're doing by applying Blight with 2x Spreading Rot Jewels!
