Hi all, new to build, thanks for the build guide, it's been super helpful and I love the build, crazy tanky and super fun playstyle. I have a random thought I wanted to share... Divine Flesh got nerfed from 10% max chaos to 5% max chaos, which I think is still OK but not exceptional. BUT, with divergent Plague Bearer giving .5% reduced chaos dmg per point of quality, I was wondering if we used Plague Bearer linked with a Lvl 4 Enhance giving it a total of 44% quality, or 22% chaos damage reduction, combined with 80% resists, I'm still fairly new so I don't know how that math works (my guess is X dmg*78%*20%) but it seems like it would = a crapload of ele dmg reduction. Is our primary focus to mitigate melee dmg, and thus rendering this a bit too cute? For what it's worth I have second wind/dash/blood rage/plague bearer linked in my boots, and I would move the blood rage to my portal slot and drop in enhance. Also, I should probably clarify that my understanding of plague bearer is that it is either in incubating or infecting, so if you just have it on and never use it, even if it's not longer generating plague value due to max, you have permanent chaos dmg reduction - this whole idea gets a lot worse if you have to be actively generated plague value. Funnily enough with anomalous second wind at 44% quality i think i would also have 5 dash charges, QOL baby!

To take it one step further, if you convert 9% of phys to ele with helm and another 20% with Taste of Hate flask, I think that means you push 29% of melee dmg through the divine flesh and thus this mitigation can be helpful for melee and ele dmg.

Curious to hear thoughts. Thanks for the time!

People in previous comments have mentioned that with the alternate quality of withering touch a 4-link on mirage archer would probably be enough to sustain withered stacks. I was wondering what people would suggest to make the most use out of the now freed up 6-link?

Thanks for the build and the details you provide each time. I did not find a section where it is explained or maybe I missed it, I wanted to know the choice of the pantheon which were the best talents to choose. Thank you

I've been trying to roll fortify effect on helmets, its real pita to get T1.. Since this mod doesn't have any tag, you can't target it with fossils either. Tried to go with greed essences (for guaranteed life prefix). I hit it once per 50-70 attempts.. and in ~300 didnt hit T1 single time :) good times.
