Does anyone have any experience in playing this build with controller/intends to this league?



i tried it today, didn't really like it, esp because drinking of flasks is weird, you can't target Icestorm and navigating the POE UI wasn't the best. the only nice thing was movement. :)

This was my first 40/40 league with this build. Playing it for years and it never bores me honestly. You are doing fantastic job for updating it constantly league after league and im glad we have u Kelvynn in this community.

Speaking about 3.18 - since there are no any balance changes in plans, I think Occu version of this build might be the way to go after they buffed self-cast so much. Bosses are absolutely not a problem and helping with our pretty weak/mediocre aoe clear would be the best way to play next league, especially since atlas gets new keystones to change the way ure mapping.

How does the Witch version stack up versus this one? I assume better clear because of Profane Bloom, but does it cost single target/survivability?


Generally speaking, scion has more int, defense, and probably a bit more boss dps. Witch has better aoe clear.
This build was absolutely immortal in 3.17, the only thing that sucked was the clear.

How much of a difference is it defense and DPS wise between Scion and Witch?

I'm afraid if I'll regret sacrificing ascendant for occultist when it comes to bossing since this is THE bossing league.

Any feedback how is starting with this build on day 1 of a fresh League if the staff is not available? Really want to play this, but I'm afraid of screwing myself with the build and struggling with acts.

Also won't ES gear pretty expensive at the start of the League compared to the Life gear?


Not really, Ice Tomb is a GREAT chest to use until you can get ur hand on a 500-600 es chest and getting a 400-500 ES chest isn't very hard at all, a few fossils/essences and bam.

how do you get decent ES armor? What species and fossils are used and in what order? In short, how do you make decent armor?

I use google translation.

de quel facon on obtient une armure ES convenable? Quels sont les essences et fossiles utilisées et dans quel ordre? Bref comment on se fabrique une armure décente?

J utilise google traduction.

Interesting, my previous post all in French got deleted. Trying again in English.

------------

The simplest way to do this is to buy a Vaal Regalia with reasonable ES and 2 open suffixes. Ilvl 75-79 works best. Make sure it has some INT, and no open prefixes.

Slam a Crusader Orb on it and hope you hit the ~35% chance for % increased intelligence.

Then craft 6% increased attributes, which you get from Hillock's Veil chests.

Remember, just a high ES chest alone is not really useful for us. We need INT, INT, and more INT.

Freezing Pulse, Storm Brand, or Splitting Steel are some good ones.


Is that from personal experience?

I've used Freezing Pulse in many previous leagues, but it's slow. This upcoming league I was going to try Frost Bomb for trash and I suppose FP again if needed:

------------------
(frost bomb, freezing pulse) > arcane surge > added lightning > conc eff > elem focus (in order of priority, highest to lower)

Elem overload 40% more damage so take this early, as well as Ash, Frost, and Storm.

craft added cold/lightning/% incr spell damage as usual
-------------------

was the highest damage combo I was able to come up with. Take firestorm level 28 and replace freezing pulse. Go to WI at level 39.

I didn't take a look at physical attacks though. Yeah, I can't figure out how to do PoB to estimate Steel/Brand dps, so it'll just have to be in-game.


Going to try that. Tip on crafting the chest is helpfull too. Thank you.
@Koscigrob -- one thing. You need to cast frost bomb AHEAD of you, so the monsters chasing you hit it when it goes off.
