[3.16] Caustic Arrow/Death's Oath Occultist [Life based Chaos Autobomber]

Hey all, really enjoying this build as a player w/ less exp. Most of my exp comes from broken winter orb so similarly running through maps with ease has been enjoyable.

I'm kind of hitting some walls around t16 and bossing with defenses and am curious on avenues to increase def w/o too much dmg cost. Clear that enlighten, empower, and awakened gems will be a solid dmg boost where I can make adjustments for defense, but wondering if there are some intermediate steps I could take or adjustments to tree.

I'm relatively budget, I've sank more or less all of my currency into the build so far.

I've moved into the 1 large cluster build, haven't hit the small cluster node yet @ lvl92.
Inertia, glorious vanity, and hidden potential + op's chaos damage clusters.

(Also, I miss phasing and think if I can get the mana res efficiency w/ enlighten I will switch anointment to Sovereignty and move points back to the right of Inertia in dex area. Similar to Peacesechs' shared build.)

Thanks for the build f4ward!

Very chill fun build. Can pretty much do all content and pretty tanky. I have 77% element resists and 86% chaos res with 20k armour w/ no flasks up.

I tried Simulacrum once and reached level 29 but Kosis was in beast mode and fucked my ass repeatedly. One thing I would recommend for this build is the gloves Null & Void. It gives us life, strength, and RAMPAGE which is OP for mapping in Scourge league. Can easily hit 1000 stacks of Rampage every map and that gives 50% movement speed and 200% damage.

question on this build when i'm fighting bosses my life is not leeching from the bosses am I doing something wrong everything else is great, mapping, then get to a conqueror and I get hit but my life not coming back from the attack damage leech of my caustic arrow or aura.

This is a fun build, but tbh it sucks at endgame bossing.
Probably(if not) the worst build I've played for the occasional bossing and honestly you can get better clear in most builds as well with the same investment. It's speedy and explosions are fun tho. That's about it.
Definitely won't try league starting this again.. It's horrible for fast progress at league start xD

One quick tip, you can annoint Disciple of Slaughter (+1 min frenzies, %frenzy on kill, inc damage per frenzy) instead of the Acrimony that most people take. You lose 1% boss damage but gain 9% more clear damage as well as better attack speed in both scenarios.

nvm found the issue i had

Hello, I apologize in advance for my English, I would have liked to know what is the difference on the amount of blood sacrificed Xibaqua, what should I look for in priority? Thank you

It doesn't affect the main keystone, but it does affect the notables in the area.

Just get the cheapest one, but in the future you can try to check a few others to see if there are useful notables in the radius.

Thanks

Enjoyed this build a lot, works really well for almost everything.

Quitting league now though and vaaled my chest for fun and hit +1 all gems lmao.



See ya all next league!
