I am having horrible luck when it comes to rares, is there any unique alternative for the helm slot? :3

The most what you need on helm is an enchantment. There are very few on the market rn and it's expensive. Unless you want to spend few divines on the helmet with an enchantment already - pretty much any energy shield related helm would do, until you jerking the Lab for the enchantment. Those are pretty cheap off the market.

I still don't have one myself tho xD

i've been tinkering with the build for the last few days, and the main thing i've noticed is that the deep thoughts node isn't really giving us much ever since the build shifted away from memory vault. increasing a little bit the quality on the rings would allow you to shift these 2 points to 10% inc armor and 5% inc ES without suffering too much (barring a little bit of stutter on the desecrate maybe)

The two nodes still give a good amount of ES, because of the intelligence on top of the mana (229 ES in the guide PoB), so while it's a good point that they lost value since Memory Vault was dropped, I still think they're worth keeping.

I only have 3.3K ES, which is half of what you have, I'll attach the PoB below, advice please.

I'm still leveling some of my gems, maybe that's why. In any case please I'd appreciate if you could take a look at it, the tree, equipment, jewels, etc. Thanks

you're not running discipline, that's why you are missing so much energy shield

Also the PoB build is pretty much min-maxed with best gems/gear.

Simple plebs are bound to have ~6k ES.

Am level 92 now, have 4.5K ES and yeah, I am not running discipline because I have 17% unreserved mana and can't run it. I've studied the POBs and compared them and Determination has 28% mana reservation efficiency while mine has around 33%. If I could get it to 28% efficiency I could run discipline but I am not sure what I'm missing, to be able to get Determination to 28% mana reservation efficiency. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.




EDIT:

Got it. The Armor Mastery to the middle bottom of the tree, wasn't allocated for me. Silly me. Got 6.3K ES now, I thank Vatinas and everyone involved in this build, as it's amazing and I'm almost level 93 thanks to it and having a blast!

Hello,
I looked up your build because I wanted to farm Simulacrums on wave 30. My build is almost identical to yours, except I am missing a helmet with Minion gems+ another Sentinel. However, my question is more about why I am not causing poison damage to my enemies. What could be causing this? When I go into PVP with someone, they are poisoned, but the monsters do not receive poison damage. Would anyone be able to take a look and let me know if they see any errors?

I copied His Pob and changed some things bcs I am to bumb to take calcs on myself

PoB:https://pastebin.com/jjJRduDR thanks!

Returning HoP player: played it a few leagues ago to a decent level (I think I was 15-25m dps), though I still died in the Feared and simulacrum.

I currently have an aurabot duo (but my carry is no longer playing all the time, so there goes my money making) and a HoT character which I not only want to delete, but also burn to the ground (runs well on alch & go without any league mechanics on the map...).

Would the current HoP edition allow me to:

- Farm simulacrum 30, deathless, without having to stress/move too much ( I just want to to cyclone and switch off my brain. Don't want to worry about the bosses or mod combination)
- farm juiced maps with mirror of delirium, and reach end boss without stressing about whether I will die or the fog will catchup
- similarly, farm some delirious maps in a decent time (I guess 60% - 80%, no need to flex on 100% unless the clear speed is fantastic)
- clear Sanctum consistently without worries (isn't cycloning dangerous due to all the AoE the guards and bosses have? Or do you just rely on spiders, but I recall they were not that great for DPS bossing)
- farm Feared (which means reliably do all pinacles bosses deathles)
- uber not required for now
- must be tanky (which the build used to be)
- bonus point if I can tank Maven's memory game (I think I could not with my previous HoP build, yet I see 3.20 builds tanking it with less res/armour... not sure how)

I can invest 20 div easily, another 10 div if it makes a difference, and can farm another 20 for longer term goals if I can do simulacrums/delirium

I was considering other builds, so happy to hear your thoughts about it:
- Arakaali HoAG
- pure Arakaali
- phantasmal creation aegis necro (not sure how efficiently it maps)
- WI trickster
- Flicker ephemereal edge aegis ( this one would be a pain for Sanctum)


edit: just saw that the base PoB only has 6m dps? I am maybe getting confused bu I was sure I hit at least 15m (maybe even 20m+) in prior iterations of the build
