You can remove the Crystal Skin or the Soul of Steel clusters, getting back 4pts. Remove one more point somewhere else and with 5pts, you get Acro+Phase Acro : that's 70/60 dodge with Withering Step.
To get close to 75/75, you'll need atk and spell dodge on the body armour and the boots.

With a Basalt Flask of Iron Skin, you will still have a good armour.

Hi Exiles,

here is a new video for the nastiest girl in Wraeclast : the best moments from two T16 60% delirious maps.

I am using again the sextant poison mod that gives "12% inc dmg per poison on you". That's 1200% increased dmg with 100 poisons (easily attainable), which translates to triple damage !

I had previously featured this combo in this video from 3.10. But this time, the maps are much tougher, as I have juiced them not only with Delirium but also Beyond, Harbinger etc.
As you will see, Omniphobia (the fat boss) is easily dispatched, and I'm quite proud of the moment where I facetank Kosis, while the poison mercilessly runs through his veins.
Watch hom OD in this new video :

#3 : She Moves Like a Knife

Hope you like it :)

Hey, I just thought I'd share a CI version I'm working on using your build as a base. I'm up to 2+M Shaper DPS, 5,500+ ES, 79/80/80 ele resists, 54% phys reduction, 84% evade, 46% dodge. So far it's theory, but I'm about to get a bunch of equipment and use a level 89 respec to give it a shot...

Hey,
that seems cool !

Some suggestions to improve :
- ES instead of life on the rings and belt
- Shadowstitch armour maybe not the best. Might want to test Incandescent Heart, for "25% of elem dmg from hits taken as chaos".
- You want to get the life nodes in the radius of both your Energy From Within jewels..

I've tried to minmax your version :

Added Incandescent Heart. Removed Influence notable, added the small mana leech node on the bottom right.

Good luck and have fun. And happy new year !

Hi Exiles,

Reworked Occultist ascendancy in 3.13 :



"15% more chaos damage" instead of "+20% to chaos damage over time multiplier". Should be 5% more dmg for this build, for instance.

Also, Profane Bloom is buffed from 25% to 40% chance for cursed monsters to explode. Nice !

I am working to improve the Pestilent Viper. I've killed a bunch of Guardians, Elder Guardians and Shaper to test this new version and it feels good. I'll share all infos here when it's ready.

Good luck and have fun, Exiles :)

Hi Exiles,
Here is an improved version of the build :)

PoB : https://pastebin.com/WmYR5xMZ

* With Divine Flesh, all dmg bypasses ES, making it useless.
So I have taken the Eternal Youth keystone : ES recharge is instead applied to life.
= a passive life flask !

An excellent feature for long boss fights.
--> hit the boss like crazy to stack poisons on it
--> dodge while you recharge life and the poison deals its DoT

* Added the Hands of the High Templar gloves :


With Empower level 4 (+1 from the gloves) :
Plague Bearer is level 26 = 1.4M DPS.
Temporal Chains is level 27. Look at those jumping Goatmen, almost stuck in midair !

* Large "Attack with Shield" cluster :
- Gladiator Fortitude : 25% inc dmg, 5% inc life
- Feed the Fury : 30% inc dmg and 15% inc atk speed while leeching

* Medium "Chaos DoT" cluster :
- Unwaveringly Evil : Chaos skills ignore stuns = no interruptions while you spam Viper Strike !
- Flow of Life : DoT, life, regen

* Added Growing Agony jewel for Viper Strike : easily 10% more dmg.

Compared to the previous version, we lose :
> 1% of max elem res
> Endurance charges from instant Enduring Cry

But we gain :
> ~300 life
> 50% more dmg !

I'm waiting 3.13 to publish this new version in the first msg, as I'll need to know any change on the skill tree and skill gems.

Videos coming before 3.12 ends :
- T16 Constrictor
- The Shaper

Good luck and have fun, Exiles :)



Secretly, I'm just a minion of the tri-eyed toad.

Hi Exiles,

Updated PoB for 3.13 :
https://pastebin.com/LxZTfVrZ

New in 3.13

We gain some single target dmg thx to Pestilent Strike and Viper Strike converting 60% of phys to chaos (up from 50%), but most of all, we now have 40% chance to make cursed enemies explode (up from 25%) !
Makes farming buttery smooth. "Everything dies !"

Here is a video I've made at the end of 3.12 with my new Eternal Youth setup, which provides a free passive life flask, by applying ES recharge to life :

#4 : Eternal Youth

It features Abaxoth, the End of All That Is (of its own life in particular, but not mine, ty !) in a T16 Shipyard, then the Constrictor in another T16, with some farming in Delirium beforehand.
Hope you like it :)

Good luck and have fun !

Next time : The Shaper.

Hello is there a path I should go if I want to use this build but mainly use dagger/shield instead of claw? Or is claw just all around superior in this build? Thanks for the build and advice!

Actually I've started this build with a dagger. I've switched to a claw for life gain on hit.
So if you want to go dagger, simply change the nodes accordingly. Get Stabbing Thirst, Flaying, Backstabbing and Adder's Touch.
