Wish I had discovered Cane of Kulemak(Explode Mod) + Gravebind earlier. This makes so many minion builds better. I kinda want to throw a Crusader chest on the AG as well just to see how well I can get him to chain. But, probably not worth it as Garb of the Ephemeral is pretty high opportunity cost(Cane vs Kingmaker less so), and I think most of the time the pops aren't reliable because AG is lagging behind you.

Anyone know a reliable way to keep that stupid turtle in range? I outrun it all the time, even with convocation. If not, what's a good cheap 3 spectre? Using shouty boi and pain artist(zealotry).

I've grown partial to Perfect Forest Warrior for general purpose. He's got an Onslaught aura and culls and I don't otherwise have either.

I stuck culling strike and feeding frenzy on a carrion golem. I know he will die frequently, so I'm treating it like a temporary active button press. Maybe pob warrior.

Khane Khane I'm sure you already knew, but there's another flask macro build!

This is why I put inordinate effort into "normalizing" my builds. The only expensive parts of that build is Indigon and Unnatural Instinct(not required). Every other piece is under 1D, 10s of chaos for most. All that for probably a pessimistic 50M dps and a stupid amount of life and mana sustain. Frost Shield might be cheating the Max Hit numbers, but idk, 3.3m radius isn't that hard to stay inside.

So I updated my filter to show "Army of blood" and "Rat somethong or other", and they do seem to work. 8 mod corrupted maps I am dropping around 5-10 army of blood per........wondering how many maps to get a single damnation.

I know the value went down a bit, but even if a card is 250-300 div, I'll have enough to have fun with.

Just wish I had the damage to try out the pilfering strat, although I should probably try again at some point.

Been spamming dunes (scryed from crimson township), and I think Im up to 12 enlighten cards without doing the pilfering strat.

Is there any way to get less lag in Delirium? Been having constant freezes that lead to death everytime I attack a magic pack and end up dying.....shit sucks.

Also, any easy way to avoid the grasping hands or whatever that slows your action speed to zero? First time really dealing with Deli mobs.....

I'll post my POB when I get a chance this weekend, Im sure there's things I can do to survive more. Not that I'm dying a ton but the deaths I do have are out of nowhere.

After dying to Act 10 Kitava during Ziz's gauntlet for the Mercenaries league I enjoyed the experience enough to want to try again. I died as SRS Puppeteer last time and made it to maps this time on SRS Guardian playing quite a bit better overall. I had to have had 3x to 5x the damage making all the really shitty encounters much less shitty.

So I can vouch for having way more damage as a defensive layer. I had to do so many less mechanics on every boss.

Here's my POB - definitely have a lot to tweak, still waiting to get this Damnation card. I have around 110 Div currently, should be around 550 or so if it ever drops. (Currently up to 14 Enlightened drops).

Could definitely use help figuring out how to move my points around to get more DPS, as well as helping me ditch the Purity of Elements for ailment immunity and something more damage. I still suck at this game but having a lot of fun this league. 30 rage was included in the POB since it ramps up quick and generally stays maxed until I run out of packs.

Is the claw+squire setup actually even good? I'm dubious it's better than paradoxica for elemental hit due to the insane flat damage and how it scales off gem levels. For reference I hit 30m+ dps scaling gem levels + paradoxica last league on some pretty garbage gear aside from paradoxica and the admiral gloves. Are those just too expensive to use anymore?

You have elemental hit in your links but it's rolled on your claw so it's not doing anything.

Your tree looks fine for a claw setup otherwise.

Not 100% sure re: paradoxica, but oh shit I didn't realize I had ele damage gem still socketed, thanks for that!

I have more than enough damage I need for finishing out this damnation card farm on 8 mods, once I finally get it I'll have to take a look and see if maybe that'll be a better option.......but I do like the extra leech from the claw.

I'd check the prices on admirals arrogance if anything. They were only a couple of divines last league, but it's a rare enough item that if it got popular it could go crazy

It's much less like scaling a traditional phys/ele skill and more like scaling a spell with ele hit because of the raw base damage it has and replica dragonfang+admiral end up being almost 100% more damage.

Your level 20 gem:
20701558748 to 1389609 to 1133118 to 228749%

My gem at 28:

2886—91582 to 29371288 to 2395249 to 4835

The base level scaling is such that I gave up trying to do anything but get more +gems and rely on paradoxica double damage to do the rest.

Admiral's Arrogance were up to almost 50D early in the league. Still 10D now. Streamer playing your build can be quite bad. If you lagged behind, used be ok because you could pickup their scraps. But now everyone just volatile vaals instead. Though I don't think these gloves are a good target.

Yea you wouldn't be able to hit +4 I don't think, but there are some very strong double corrupt options for gloves still.

At 10d they are probably worth taking a look at in PoB though. I was never able to get to suppress cap with my budget unfortunately because I was using unique gloves+boots, but I think it's possible to do with a t1 chest roll and a good shield. Foulborn oppressors are cheap this league I think and could probably get you to suppress+block cap pretty quickly?

Speaking of the giga vaals: finally logged back in to finish up my cyclone meme project and round out challenges. Even with access to a mageblood I don't think I can make alt cyclone feel good without using stampedes and hooooooly shit is that market a wasteland. People have blown up every single pair that exists chasing a 175%+ movespeed rolls to the point that even a failed corrupt that kept the 150% base is like 15 divines.

So the admirals gloves upped my dps by 3mil or so in POB, BUT I have to rework my tree to get an idea how much Paradoxica will improve it further.

Not sure if I want to lose the extra strike mod on my rare gloves but I may try it out since 3mil is a huge boost.

Problem I see with that is my mana cost jumped way up due to the +3 levels.
