How it *actually* works: there's a 4 second window when it just falls off and goes on CD during which point you're vulnerable, and that's no fun.

I realize you don't have the +120% fortify effect while focus on your chest even though you have an open suffix. Usually MS'CD in our setup is about 2.6-3sec, so if you want you can Focus with the aforementioned chest mod to gain 45%-50% less damage taken from hit with Fortify on top of other defenses. I highly recommend try that and rotate with MS.

Anyway, glad that you have some fun with the build. Cheers mate.

Yeah, 4 seconds wasn't exactly accurate, but the big issue is knowing when exactly the molten shell goes on CD. If there were some way to autocycle molten shell/focus, that'd be amazing, but there isn't >_<

where do you place militant faith on the passive tree?
and btw get someone else rekted hard from poison? i have like 72 chaos resist

I'm not sure about the poison but this is someone, Slottm, who has been posting in this thread (and may have moved onto a new game now) but his character profile is pretty min-maxed so I've been using it as a partial guideline. He has that jewel socketed so you could take a look.

I've been keeping an eye on when the Molten Shell skill starts to circle doing its cooldown and that is when I'll immediately press Focus. Obviously not perfect, and it would be great, if we could move things around on the screen. But its been going okay so far.

I'm definitely pressing a lot of buttons with this build so its not one of those right click and win type of builds but I'm liking it so far!

I saw many people trying to squeeze every drop of MS. So, beside the Second wind + Increased duration, you can also add Enhance lvl4 to MS(21/23). Not really need Vaal MS.

Vaal MS is hot steaming garbage now for actually preventing your death to things that matter (one-shots) for a Transcendence build and I frankly consider it a trap option myself.

Hey Wolfie,

Awesome build! I cleared everything; got 36/40 and will now quit the league. Thanks for all the help and tips. This build absolutely melts everything while being super tanky. I hope you don't you mind be offering my gear for sale here but maybe someone else can use it since I went the Barrage version (seems to be less played).

Thanks again and will probably use this as a league starter next league!

all gear below for sale with best offer! Pm me on forums if interested

@Zyaak2point0,

I don't mind at all. Good job clearing everything with the build. See you around.

Hi everyone, I've been playing this build for around 2 weeks now and like to give my thoughts and impressions.

1- I didnt league start with it, I swapped to it once I had crafted my bow and had around 20Ex to buy the initial gear. Even with that the damage and survivability in the beginning felt a bit lacking, for that reason I think league starting with it would be very hard (maybe with some tweaks and smarter gear choices on what invest to get it going)
2- The playstyle was very keen to me. It is VERY active, and you need to know what ur doing to achiv it's full potential. In short, u need to manage ur flasks, manage SA, manage BR, and do the focus/MS rotation.
3- Your flasks ARE KING, i run around with 3 extra flasks in the bag, this is a flask ascendency and a flask build, know how to take advantage of that!!! I asked here before and it helped a lot, here is my setup (At all times: Foreboding Hybrid and Reflexes of Iron Skin, Clear: Cindeswallow, Quicksilver, Dying Sun, Bossing(guardians, sirius, etc, not map bosses): Overflowing, Coralitos, Taste of Hate), but u need to experiment and try what feels good for u.
4- Attributes fixing is a bit pain when u r trying to get the other good mods in the gear, but there is always a easy fix with the +30 on the tree
5- Dont overlook accuracy! Rings and abyss was enough for me to hit 99%, but u need at least 95% to it not feel bad.
6- If u dont like crafting this will be very hard, our gear pieces is not easily available to buy, but i took this opportunity to learn more about it
7- Final, and most important, once u have some key items and points, the build is GREAT!! The clear is very good even without explode chest (not top tier like HH farmers), u can do all map mods (this is often overlooked), it delves pretty well, and bossing is a cake (mainly for people like me that are not very good at dodging stuff, I can facetank 99% of Sirus A9 and Maven attacks (degens will still kill u)), and it is very easy to get levels while mapping, because u DONT DIE.

For those more score focused, here is my roundup (considering the final build, Transcendece Iron Reflexes SA+BR):
Budget - 3/5, not the cheapest to achiv its full potential. Around 30-50Ex, requires a lot of crafting
Mapping - 4/5, good clear with no worries for map mods
Bossing - 5/5
Survivability - 5/5 (not passive tough, u need to press some buttons)
Complexity - 3/5, a lot of things to track and a lot of key items that are necessary to the build to work
Fun - 5/5, not a passive build and i liked it a lot! smart decisions to be made, and alternate playstyle for tackle each content (channelling X tapping SA)

For those interested here is my gear:


Thanks all! Great build and great community to help u!!
