1. I removed Spreading rot and Vaal blight: this is great for leveling and map clear but not so good for bosses. The buff lasts only a couple of seconds on bosses, then you have to wait for blight effect to finish to reapply it again. Another 7% life + DMG jewel is better imo. I use Vaal grace as well and I don't want to waste those precious soul charges on another Vaal gem.

Hi

And what about totem + wither, pretty useless because it die too fast or no have time to apply the 15 stack. I prefer use Vaal blight for debuff and eventually increased duration at least (i know soul gain prevention is up).

About vaal grace problem is this skill won't always save you against strong Immortal Syndicate or some map boss. But it's good survival option.

Switched to dual curse since and Haste+HoH+Despair as aura.
Not bad

Try to link body armour next

The real update to this build would be Farrul's Fur + taking some frenzy charge node throught the tree. I try in std and it went very well.
Btw farrul's is too expensive.

Hi, wither totem is another interesting topic that should be discussed I agree. I still use it and I don't think it dies that fast as the purple effect is often up. I guess I'm still happy if it dies instantly because it took a big slam from a boss, at least it didn't focus me. Plus we are chain immune so chain is not a drawback.

The real difference is that wither totem only costs two gem slots, which is not much since I can't find better usage for them. Spreading rot cost you a jewel slot, 2 extra passives points to give it 40 intelligence, and reduces potential usage of other Vaal spells.
Vaal grace is insane, it is always up when I'm mapping or delving, and I always have one to launch when the syndicate pops up, which is perfect to avoid those unlucky os from it that fled.

On another note, the stupid golem dies all the time, and I don't even know why I'm still casting it. The cwdt is too low lvl to add it in there and be useful. I guess that could free another gem slot too.

Decoy totem should be BIS for it.

I had my first 6 link item ever drop and it was a 6 link Death Harp. Is that end game viable?

No

I'm looking for help.

I've been playing this build and I love it but I'm doing too little damage for end-game and dying a bit too often. I have about 4-5ex at this point so I don't have a ton for upgrade and I want to make sure I'm spending it on the right pieces.

Couple of issues- I can't use added chaos on herald because I don't have enough reduced mana. I've been working on the helm enchant but I haven't had any luck yet. I also get one-shotted by Izaro so I fail on occasion against him which makes it take more work.

I know my rings could use an upgrade but the replacements are super-pricey.


Thanks in advance for any help!
