So I've been playing some version or another of BBoU for a couple months now. Started league as ice nova archmage, did some min maxing, then decided I didn't much like the build and sold the gear for a ton of currency while it was still meta, so that I could play Ben's version of the phys BBoU. At this point I've probably played 3-4 slightly different versions of the phys blade blast. Most somewhat based around the skeleton of Ben's BBoU sabo passive tree. At some point I got forbidden jewels and moved to assassin.

Eventually I got to thinking of moving away from wand/shield to a spellcaster bow, since at the time I had a lot of currency and saw ckaiba had an insane spellcaster bow available to mirror for no fee. I also dropped entropic devastation gloves in favor of phys to cold gloves. Also got the idea to turn all the cold damage to chaos damage with Original Sin.

In the past 2 months I've recrafted my gear several times because every time I would get some new upgrade, my resistances or my attributes would get screwed and both of those were very tight on this build. For example when I moved from boots with strength to boots with more health and chaos res, I had to recraft my ring to have strength instead. Jewels in particular I've swapped a ton. I am finally at the point where pretty much all my armour is great, even traded up to uniques with good corruptions. My jewels are not perfect, but they are as good as I could craft/get. I think the only reasonable upgrades I have left are 1 passive voices, but I don't have the currency for them and I'm pretty worn on the league.

I've been enjoying the build for the most part and I think my one complaint about it is how much socket pressure there is. You pretty much need at least 12 socket investment just to cast BBoU comfortably, which is why I moved onto an unset ring. I think the ring and my boots were the most annoying to craft because I couldn't use gravecrafting. For the ring I bought an unset ring base with chaos leech and then crafted it from there. For the boots I bought 4-5 pairs of ilvl 86 fugitive boots, spammed greed essence for 96 life then used fracturing orbs until I fractured the max life, then crafted from there.

I've invested a ton of time into the build. Not sure if I coulda had a better build if I had instead invested the time into some other build, but no use thinking about that. I will link my POB below. The build is pretty unique because it uses a bow/quiver, petrified blood, righteous fire, and original sin. It is also bleed immune(100% phys taken as ele), stun immune(tattoos), poison immune(ring corruption), and ailment immune(purity of elements). Even though the eHP on the POB doesn't seem super high, the max hit numbers themselves for phys and ele are very high, it's just that the eHP is not boosted by grace/determination or a guard skill.

I have swapped some gear around, but mostly haven't sold anything. I think the build as was posted in that POB was probably between 4-6 mirrors. The uniques probably hard to find at this point in the league with so few playing. For the rares, I crafted them all myself, including the corrupted cluster jewels.

Hey! You did?? Was it that common? Haha. It's ultimately a jank build that can go pretty fast and hard, but it's not everyone's cup of tea!

A quick scan of the patch notes hints at no overt nerfs. Divine Blessing gone is one. No changes to Saboteur.

I have to say thought, after building it without Ralakesh and even using Archmage as a prop, the build is probably a 75% at MOST. It's only something you should play if you have played everything else and want to use weird mechanics in a build. For most other players, it's too much work for only average gains.

The ONLY thing it has going for it is - looks like a circle league, and this one SMASHES circle leagues hard because just knocks out the entire area so quickly. :D Also, maybe since melee will be the hype train now, the spellcaster stuff will be cheaper.

So, as much as I am biased - I hope you enjoy a great league trying out some of the newfangled gems!!
