A very quick summary of this build. Reached 99 and played all league. I can say its one of the best I've played and a build that felt super comfortable farming T16 juiced up content consistently. I found most map rolls apart from 1 or 2 even mattered. Vortex and Vaal Cold Snap made mapping so nice. There were times I felt like I was cheating. Bossing was also solid. Once that DOT kicks in....goodbye :)

Budget wise, it's very budget friendly. A few good essence crafts and eldritch mods on some solid bases carried me for ages. Gear wise, there is lots of flexibility depending on your cashflow. I can vouch for Carcass Jack and that sick aoe.

Lastly, the best thing about this build is the really nice people on this thread. No question is stupid. Ask away and you will be blessed with detailed and concise information along with pointers and what to get next. I learnt a lot here.

So in summary. Great build, budget friendly, scales off gems, nice people and great advice. Peace :)

Edit: I could have pushed further gear wise but burnt out and had to play something else lol.

Hello everyone,

does someone have a PoB for the Items before the 13m DPS pastebin?
So for example early, mid phases and cost?
And/Or priority for upgrades?

Hello! I'll take note and provide more intermediate POBs for 3.22.

From the FAQ:
Q: How will you prioritise your item progression in the early game?

Spoiler

A: The build contains 7 key uniques for the late game. Before acquiring them, use rare items with good stats. Below is the order of priority:

1. Legacy of Fury - Great boost for mapping speed. Prioritise chance to scorch.

2. Devouring Diadem - Allows you to run four auras and Feast of Flesh is a huge boost to survivalbility

3. Skin of the Lords - +2 level of socketed gems is a huge boost for your DPS (3.21 update: Due to breach nerfs driving the price of Skin of the Lords up, please read the item section on alternatives to Skin of the Lords)

4. Coward's Legacy - ~30% more DPS from being low life (you need to allocate Pain Attunement)

5. Watcher's Eye with "unaffected by Vulnerability while affected by Determination" - reduces the effect of Vulnerability.

6. Forbidden Flame and Forbidden Flesh with "Frigid Wake" - Increased survivability and damage. The reason this is the last upgrade is because of the expensive price. (Who knows? It might be cheap in 3.21 if the crowd does not play Cold DoT.)

The priority early on is Devouring Diadem and Legacy of Fury. Legacy of Fury is quite expensive during the first two days, but the price declines sharply on a daily basis and by the end of the first week it is a 10c item. So if you are breaking into T14-T16s on day 1-2, I suggest skipping Legacy of Fury for Devouring Diadem.

On Day 2 I was clearing T14-16s comfortably on quite basic gear (the only expensive piece was the Devouring Diadem, which price goes down over time).

Day 2 gear estimated cost:

Spoiler

1. Devouring Diadem (3-4d)

4. Both rings (Combined cost is less than 10c)
5. Wand (5c)
6. Shield (Less than 5c)
7. Belt (12c)
8. Boots (<1c) - I have since purchased a new pair of boots for ~5c
9. Virdian Jewel (10c or less)

Ty for the list. I see you have 2 rar rings and cast the curses manuelly. Is "Mark if Submission" also a good choice on leaguestart?

Due to the discovery of a bug where Frigid Wake was incorrectly using a fixed-duration freeze, causing it to not be affected by freeze duration modifiers, we have made the below change. The described bug has also been fixed.

Frigid Wake: No longer has "Every 4 seconds, 33% chance to Freeze nearby Chilled Unique Enemies for 0.6 seconds" or "Every 4 seconds, Freeze nearby Chilled Non-Unique Enemies for 0.6 seconds." It now has "Every 4 seconds, 50% chance to Freeze nearby Non-Frozen Enemies for 0.6 seconds."

"

Monsters in the Forbidden Sanctum are immune to damage if there is no player within 100 units of them.

"

The following Maps have been removed from the Atlas: (...) Grotto (...) Toxic Sewer (...)

"

Added a new Atlas Keystone Passive Skill, Extreme Archaeology, which grants "200% increased Explosive Radius in your Maps", "100% increased Explosive Placement Range in your Maps", "Expedition Monsters in your Maps spawn with an additional 10% of Life missing" and "Number of Explosives is one".

"

Added a new Atlas Keystone Passive Skill, Destructive Play, which grants "The Maven summons 1 to 3 additional Bosses when Witnessing Map Bosses. Modifiers to the Final Map Boss in each Map also apply to these summoned Bosses."

"

The "Totems Taunt Enemies around them for 1 second when Summoned" Totem Mastery has been replaced with "1% of Physical Attack Damage dealt by your Totems is Leeched to you as Life."

"

The Veiled modifier which grants increased Duration of Ailments you inflict while Focused modifier now has values of 36-40% (previously 81-90%). Crafted versions of this modifier have been adjusted accordingly.

Build looks very promising!
Is this build SSF viable?
