So when doing this as low life...

Why recommend gloves/boots with aspect of the spider? How do I fit this in with the Mana reservations?

With two Blasphemy and Discipline on mana and the nodes taken on the tree for reservation in PoB there is not enough to run Aspect of the spider as well.. How do you make this work while still taking Transcendence as your anoint?

I am confusion

I think the ones who do this only use Vaal Discipline and not the discipline aura. Also you could just use one curse (frostbite) to activate discipline.

As I said some pages earlier, I highly recommend curse on hit rings with double influence so you also get the % increased ES crusader mod. That's expensive but it's so good.
I can run discipline, clarity, vitality, aspect of the spider, hatred, zealotry, malevolence and flesh and stone. And I still have frostbite and ele weakness curses with my rings and I don't even need to cast them manually...

Curse on hits rings have some drawbacks especially if your Low life. So unless you can get around 5 mil dps with them I wouldn't recommend curse on hit actually.

1. A T1 curse on hit is only level 14. Your loosing 30-40% damage compared to a lvl 21 curse.

2. You can't scale the level of the curse with +1 to int and spells

If you use blasphemy, I agree. you loose around 30% dps from curses, but you reserve a huge amount of mana for only 30% effects of curse... I really think there's a better use of your mana. I'd rather have 3 more auras even if it means a bit less dps.

If you don't use blasphemy, it means that you need to self cast. So you won't have them 100% up. It might be more dps on POB yes but not when you actually play. I'm pretty sure you don't use curses for mapping anymore. And for bosses, you might lose a bit of dps but you already need to keep moving, dodge, dash (to gain arcane surge), cold snap, have at least 3 vortex active... I'd rather not have to think about self casting my curses..
And also you block 4 sockets on your gear for 2 curses...

But hey, there is enough variant for this build so everyone can find the one he likes better.

Blocking 4 sockets?

1. Blasphemy uses 3 sockets. So I am only sacrificing one socket.

2. Curse on hit is just dumb when Mark of Shaper/Elder add so much dmg. Why do you think Shak doesn't recommend curse on hit rings in his POB setup?

3. Also I do self cast in maps usually. Storm Brand has a 5 second cooldown and I can cast a Storm Brand three times so it can be on any three locations on the map. Hardly any downtime.

4. This is your first Occultist and you keep acting like you know so much about this build.


If you had more EHP than me I would let that comment slide.

looking for crafting suggestions for this helmet

that will not entail spending the rest of the league on tft ;)

doing rm attack - aug cold - aug cold will give me chance to freeze and -9% resistance to cold but that still an 8% drop in DPS over my rime gaze according to POB, for a small increase in ES and one big ele res. Any other suggestions on how to make the best of this?

Thanks for the help
