I have done some changes and the damage scale to 34M plus, i have like 95K ehp now!~

Ty, i'm testing and looking for more changes

My build now: https://pobb.in/kdNyq7Tz7Q35

Build looks great.

Empower 4 on main link (unless it's crazy expensive like enlighten 4)

Not a headhunter fan, prefer mageblood (long term, expensive) to it. If going against uber content etc obviously recommend 42% dyadian over hh.

Double dot quiver should still be an upgrade (recipe in signature)
(tried mine that is not a "great one" but looks nicer in every way compared to your current one) -> ok i was wondering how you were getting all your spell suppr, comes from charms.

You seem to be at 106 spell suppr so you could get another glove implicit (6% spell suppr right now/unless you plan on mitigating a bit of the occasional spell suppr map mod)

Long term too (should be expensive - if looking for uber damage), +2/dot multi ammy (recipe in sign too)

8% ele atziri should be cheap
Wondering why you do use taste of hate as a main flask ? Or were you targetting specific content ? (uber shaper ?)

Wondering if clusters could be optimized (looks so) Lethal pride could be upgraded too (currently 13553). I generally recommend 12824 but it's not ideal in your configuration since dirty tech isn't allocated.

Anyway, still room for optimization, but as said, build is solid already.

Hello,
I was wondering why my DPS is so incredibly low, my gear does not seem so bad. Could you pls help me with that?

Hello. Some thoughts, didn't review extensively - also didnt use pob link, imported your char directly)

(damage) - You've got herbalism instead of watchtowers allocated.
Considering the price of tainted oil, you're gonna have to get another amulet and anoint it correctly.

(damage) - Allocate dot mastery (+15% duration)

(damage) - Make your bow 4R2G, get rid of ignite prolif and put prolif on gloves instead (cheap, eldritch currency)

(damage) - Rework links so you can add a [flame surge - arcanist brand - flammability] setup to your build. ANd link your trap to combustion instead of flame surge.

(damage) - Gotta fix your hit chance. Accuracy on rings, gloves. Also get the eldritch implicit on gloves for % global accuracy.
Stats you want really high on gloves : spell suppr, attack speed, accuracy.

(defences)- Brass dome is nice, i'll give it to you, but you gotta have a plan to fix your spell suppression if using it, right now you're at 47% and you want that value to be 100.
You're also using the +15% evasion mastery and it can't work with brass dome as it has no evasion.
(damage/defences) A good option is hyrri's instead. You'd be almost capped in spell suppression swapping them. But you'd ofc lose a lot of armour and the crit immunity.

(defences) - Recommending fixing fire res and swapping out purity of elements for determination, whatever body armour you pick.

(damage/defences)- Considering you're using starkonja, swap immediately for devoto's devotion for now, costs nothing and won't give you a 50% less damage when you're on low life

(damage)- make your dyadian 42% with catalysts

(damage/defences) - League bonuses : Change your ascendency thing to the charms one. It seems to be the consensus, could help you fixing things/have build flexibility. I think someone mentioned it and the reservation, free banner, covered in ash etc things. [not an expert, not playing the league]

(general) Tree : take a look at others here, your cluster setup has to be completely remade.
Current issues :
- small cluster is nice but you want a 3 passive one.
- your large cluster on the contrary is too big, too many points lost in it.
- megalomaniac not opti. Prefer something like a medium cluster (4) with ancestral echo and sleepless sentries for example.
Then, jewels to optimize (but not the priority right now)

i dunno if my profile shows but if anyone can give me some tips to advance id love it

Hello.

[very important] You also gotta change your bow. You CANT have +1 arrow on it as an even number of arrows make the arrow fire left and right instead of on the target.

Your molten shell currently doesnt work : not enough mana to be cast.

Apart from that see notes above as some apply to you as well. Also change your flammability on hit ring and get the flammability setup described there.
Forget about lightning golem and raise spectre.

So for the Blizzard Crown since I still find this confusing:

I now have this. I assume I need to throw more alterations at it since it needs 2 influenced modifiers?

If that is correct I have to then throw an Orb of Dominance on it to hope that the burning mod stays while the other influenced mod gets deleted?

Edit: I basically feel like spamming this thread at this point: I decided to buy me either a Headhunter or a Mageblood now. I never had either of those and I so want to try them out. I could buy a Headhunter right away, or I could save up triple of what I have to buy a Mageblood.
What would you all recommend?

Blizzard Crown :

Gotta have 2 influenced mods indeed. Then hit with dominance and hope the good one stays, otherwise start again.

ilvl 85 warlord helmet (ilvl matters) : back in the day, i bought mine, it was way cheaper than trying to roll. So either get one (gotta search on trade for the good mod + 1 between the other influenced mods). Then same, hit with dominance, hope for the best.

Once the two items have the good elevated mods, Awakener orb (click warlord then the blizzard crown).

Then craft the rest of the item.

---

HH vs MB : definitely eco for MB.

Sorry but I have to check - have you done the POB Config correctly? You may be POBing low, because you've not set things up right on the Configuration screen. I only ask because this happened to me.

>>> Yes to Frenzy and Endurance Charges
>>> Onslaught if you have it (if not get a totem medium cluster with Sleepless Sentries)
>>> Yes you have convergence (assuming you are bossing)
>>> Enemy is ignited
>>> Enemy is shocked
>>> Enemy was hit by cold damage

Doing the above moved you Full DPS from 6.9M to 18.8M which is respectable.

Otherwise, whatever Headtourist says.

I have done more changes =D, but, low on currency now, i have crafted the amulet.

I'm using Taste of Hate because of the Physical Damage Taken as Cold, and some damage from physical to cold, this helped me gain some survivability and dps (According to pob), or have better alternative?

And, for auras, i have put Flesh and Stone to help with survival, have a better one? or its ok?

Next upgrade will be the quiver

OT but I dislike the main forum. What's driving the price of the Doryani's Machinarium Map at the moment? It used to be the boots, but I'm not seeing any for sale that match the 30Div+ price for the map.

I'm going to sell it, but just wanted to check I'm not missing something. Is it just a been-there-done-that challenge type thing?

I find that Flesh and Stone makes a big difference, that doesn't shine through in POB.

I ran some simple experiments swapping it in and out and felt a lot safer with it in. Also, blinded enemies have less evasion which makes them easier to hit. This works on trash and bosses, so can help with a low Hit%.

By stacking a bit of mana res, you can run it alongside the Big Three. You may be able to drop Precision if the blinding thing POBs right.

End of league, very rare map + 23rd challenge of the league (requires completing unique maps including that one), for those going for 40/40.

Edit : if you wanna complete the challenges, you could also play it and invite up to 5 players, each giving a portal fee (people doing this kind of challenges usually do so to divide the price per player)

Ta very much. I've never been much of a one for challenges. May as well sell it.

But at least now I know what that number is next to my name.
