Thanks bud can't wait.

Hi every one

I have question, google does not supply any info.

Animated Guardian Question: Can you recover any gear you equipped him with.

For example Bringer of Rain head piece or boots or what ever you used.

Is a AG a black hole what ever you put in can not be recovered.
If for example i replace a set of gloves does it replace the previous gloves are they now lost.

Tnx in advance.

I'm using the Infernal Mantle Variant

Here's my equip



I've 7247 Es and 1700 life.
Can i do better in other way?

MOST IMPORTANT.
Can i remove Beacon of Corruption to take minor node dmg?
Right now i've 66% chaos res -15% from beacon i'll go down to 51

hi,
I got a question to "cast when damage taken". How does "bone offering" even gets triggered if "cast when damage taken" is level 20? The description of your current gear says that it only gets triggered after 3272 dmg was taken and that you cant trigger the supported skill by your own. Thats way too much or?

"

That's exactly how it works. A Lv 20 CwDT gem means that any other linked skill gem that has <70 level requirement will trigger. So any gem that is not Lv 21 or above will work. When it says you cannot trigger on your own, it means you cannot cast Bone Offering manually, but it will be cast when you take a certain amount of damage.

3272 damage is fine. We max CwDT so that we can use max level Bone Offering for more Block Chance. If you need to, having it on lower levels is perfectly fine; we still have Rumi's Concoction flask.

Hey :)

Yep, thats how CWDT works. Certain damage threshold is filled and then it casts all linked gems if they are suitable level or under.

With about 10k EHP, 3.3k damage before CWDT 20 trigger is actually not that much and even single endgame trashmob can easily trigger it. It's max level so that we get benefit from maximum block chance, but if you feel its too high, you can easily lower the level. I would not go below CWDT 10 anyway, as it starts to interfere with CWDT 1 below that. CWDTs share cooldowns so they should not be too close to each others.

"

And so my run has ended, I reached 36/40 in Hardcore, Level 97 and did 3/4 Guardians. Died to Minotaur (Last one missing) who head Monster Life, Poison on hit and 40% extra resists. Died after roughly 10 minutes, this guy is tanky compared to the other guardians or the extra resist mod is stronger then expected. Did all content besides Minotaur, Shaper, Vaal Temple and Uber.
Fun build, would recommend again. I changed the build to be block and life based but well. Had fun, what else should you expect?

Hello :)

Gz on long run!

Minotaur sure is pain in the ass as physical damage is so high and its almost impossible to get armor in gear. I wish other HC interested players will find your gear and skill choices as they look very solid ;)

"

Think swapping to lightning golem for bosses would work well?

"

The best single target golem is Chaos golem in my opinion but... It is not worth it, you need to swap to much supports, if you want to buff single target you can switch GMP for either slower projectiles or culling strike on your flame golems.

"

Thanks bud can't wait.

Hi :)

If you really wanted you can just swap Sotl with other Sotl that has all gems linked already for other Golem. Lightning Golem could work as you can boost them with Elemental Equilibrium and using cold skill like arctic breath to proc EE instead of ball lightning.

This is just bit too much work ihmo for bosses below guardians, and I'm not sure how much faster kill time you can get with other Golems. The "Lightning Crescendo" build has interesting L-golem setup if your interested. I tried it but didn't feel big enough difference to regularly swap gear.

Slower projectiles and culling strike are probably best swap gems for bosses. Slower proj adds more damage to magma ball attacks, but usually Golems go to melee range and start using other attacks. Culling strike boosts all attacks and may result in higher damage even without "more" damage mod.

Hey :)

AG is basically a black hole. You cant really get back what you put in. With Haku bench you can craft rare armor mod that drops just the armor when AG dies, but rare armors are not useful for AG anyway. If you equip new items over old ones, the old one will disappear.

AG gear however is not very expensive and AG can tank lots of damage at higher levels, so I would not be very worried about the gear.

Hello :)

You are using legacy Infernal Mantle, but its not plus 1 level corrupt one. You can easily reach 10k EHP with Sotl even in league, so I think you can do better with even standard Sotl. The plus 1 Legacy Infernal Mantle gives even the plus 1 Sotl good competition however.

You can drop Beacon of Corruption, but it can make things like "desecrated ground" annoying in maps when you can regen faster than damage over time harms you. Endgame has very low chaos damage, so there is low risk or dying but I usually recommend keeping it as 15% minion damage is pretty small buff.

I've this but if i wear my es is around 1000 es less
My boots are not es but i wear it for strenght and dex and use those two rings.

Hey!

I started following your guide only a couple weeks ago and already have a lvl94 character in Harbinger league and I'm definitely enjoying the build. My only question (which probably has been answered but I don't feel like searching 150 pages for it), You say not to use animate guardian for Shaper and Uber Atziri, what 4L should I use in place for these fights?

Thanks!

You are using an older version of Infernal Mantle, which gives more ES compared to SotL. Only the new Infernal Mantle is comparable to SotL in terms of ES.

Since you have Legacy Infernal Mantle, it's up to you which one you would prefer to use. SotL has no drawback for low Mana, so you might be able to:
1. run an extra Curse (irrelevant if you prefer to have second Curse on AG)
2. use another Aura
3. remove some Reduced Mana Reserved for some other passives (like Jewel Sockets or ES)
But as you've pointed out, you lose ES. Up to personal preference and what content you prefer to run (you don't really need that much ES for mapping).

Most of us use some combination of Cast while Channeling, either with Scorching Ray (for a bit of Fire Resist Reduction) or Storm Burst (to trigger EE, so we don't need a Totem), together with Bone/Flesh Offering and/or Desecrate.

It's very flexible because Bone Offering, Flesh Offering, and Desecrate can go anywhere, really. It depends on which skills you prefer to manually cast.

Edit: Sorry for "double post". Forgot I wasn't editing.

Hi, been following this guide for the first 2 weeks (Just started Harbinger 2 weeks ago from nothing to something) I like the lazynessish of this kind of build. :)

I was wondering if I should invest the remaining of my chaos for a empower support lv4 or should I focus on getting better rings and crystal belt?

So far with everything up 75/73/66/67 all rest which doesnt bother me much since i can do the map i wanted with ease including guardians (only die to minotaur twice) 5.6k ES|2.3k HP.

I also didn't run animate guardian (because it die once on a chaos pool map mod and didnt feel like wasting another 25~35c for another ele weakness on hit), but do have it on my boots for it when i need it.

So, w/o using A.G all the time i just use another curse [Flammability lv19] along side with [T.C] (Enlighten lv3 gem on helm) and Discipline (on gloves) which I only have 96 mana left to use spell totem for EE (because my lv24 golem rarely dies unless its shaper yes i did shaper and it was a bad time for me..... rip all of those exp, but did manage to get him to 25% HP :D).

Edit: I do have desecrate with me or my shields which i swap out with if i need to use it on certain boss or guardian.

What I currently using whatever i have on me:
