Hi there,

Thank you for putting this guide together, i've been slowly following it and the information is great!

Sorry if this is a glaringly obvious question, but what makes LL a greater choice than CI in this build? Is it possible to build strictly for CI?

Also, is it possible to build more toward some curse auras in exchange for the current auras in this build? What is the priority of auras so to speak?

Only been playing for a month, so any information or resources would be great!

Thank you.

Hello, I'm glad that you like the guide. LL is required for any build that wishes to run as many auras as we do. You don't necessarily have to run Blood Magic (check the mana based version) but however you do you'll be required to start reserving life if you want more than 3-4 auras.

You can quite easliy swap out 1 or 2 auras for curses if that's your preference, whispers of doom is only 3-4 points away for us. I'd have hard time deciding which auras to drop though, and you'll loose some attack speed, cast speed, and damage from the Commander of Darkness bonuses.

Take a look at Tips & Tricks and look through the links at 8.0 (you can skip the two spread sheets), that should give you some good info and resources.

Couldn't figure out how to link my build in a post like you guys are but I have about 5ex to spend in upgrades right now. My damage feels pretty good but I feel like I'm way to squishy. I'm farming uber pretty easily but tried an uber atziri for the first time last night and got wrecked by the first boss. Help would be appreciated!

EDIT Character is SummonRagingPepesMAGA

I would probably start with vendoring some of your gems (all lvl 20 support gems and flesh offering) with GCP's for the q20 vendor recipe.

If you are looking for a bit more damage, see if you can buy lvl 21 versions of Anger/Hatred/Wrath.

you have a bunch of skill points in your tree that you should move around. Connect the left and right side of the tree next to Foresight. Remove Occultists Dominion and the int + str nodes to its left. Remove Practical Application and the point leading to it. Remove the three points above Lord of the Dead in the Witch Area. Finally remove the two "stray" 6% es nodes at Foresight. Now you should have like 9 points to spare I think. Use them to pick up Leadership, Influcence, and start moving towards Essence Surge. When you've pick all of those up, don't forget that you've an Aura Effectiveness node to allocate on the left side of the tree.

I hope this helps.

Not advice for uber atziri, but in general some of my "advices":
1. Work on your skilltree. You should refund those nodes: Practical application, avoid interruption while casting, connection between MoM & Lord of the dead cluster: also 3 nodes: Occultist's dominion, 10int, 10str. Refund Spell block for shields both nodes. Also 7 nodes. Take influence cluster (takes you 6 nodes, and aura effect node at Sovereignity cluster). You also missing whole cluster for skill duration effect (Exceptional performance, near Sentinel) whole 3 nodes that boost your vaal skills & SRS life time :), also next your 3 nodes should go there. Take 6% es node left of Foresight, so you can refund 3 nodes between MoM and Lord of the dead. Also remove both 6% es nodes (under witch start) to get faster that Exceptional performance cluster. With influence you could probably run all 8 auras, not sure what you are skipping now, probably grace, which is our defense..?
2. Work on your flask setup: totally trash. 2 quicksilver's when we are moving with shield charge? 1 is already too much and not needed basically, only for some maps with bad layout like many small rooms where you can't shield charge comfortable. Bismuth flask totally not needed, if you didn't capped resists on gear, so upgrade gear. Other life flask, for at least 3 charges & mod with remove freeze/bleed/shock/poison or whatever. You even dont have now how to remove freeze.. ALso only 2 uses with life flask for now while almost all other flasks have 3 uses. Also change bismuth + quicksilver to basalt+jade.
3. Boots. Easy rare with 240+ ES & single resists should be obtainable for few chaos. MS is luxury, as we move with shield charge, thats not important at all and we get some from Haste anyway.
4. Belt, i would go for crystal belt with double, or triple resist (if you can afford). That helps you to keep your resistances capped.
5. Not priority, but you could spam some 3% essences for cheap & scour on helmet, when you have Influence cluster. Try to reach 300+ es & single resist.
Is the normal atziri so easy how it looks like in video as SRS? :D Today gonna reach 39 with 1k maps & planning to run 100 atziri runs (or at least split them with some other people in rotation of 5 man party) to finish endgame grind for 40 :)
Edit: anyway tested myself, pretty easy even with 4L & IIQ/IIR gems :D

Do you guys think it's better to just buy a blessing of chayula to upgrade my severed or buy a top rolled united in dream? Let's say i used a blessing of chayula on it and it only got 30% roll how big a difference would an additional 10% damage be? Thank you for the feedback!
Hi, been following this build since 2.4, and it has been one of the most detailed guides I've had the pleasure of reading :)

Would really appreciate some tips on where I can improve right now. I'm currently sitting on only 60c, and am waiting to sell my Taste of Hate. Is any tangible improvement possible here, apart from levelling my gems? I'm currently running up to T9 maps if I'm careful, otherwise I stick to T7.

Thank you!

I have 39%, used 2 divine orbs lol. Not worth to buy 40% and pay way more than to buy cheapiest one and use yourself few divines to get decent roll. Unless you have epic gear and every 1% is important to you.. And about blessing.. Just count how much it cost both ways. Do whats cheaper :)

Hmm good idea. Blessing of chayula is 3.2 ex right now so I'll just buy one. Just got 3 exalt drops must be my lucky day :D. Thank you for the advice!
Hello Tahreyn,

I tried your build and I really like it. The damage is quite nice. Unfortunately, this build is super expensive. I'm level 86 now and I have only 5.600 ES. The problem is that I don't know how to push it, without a massive amount of currency. A Shavronnes for example would help, but it costs so much.

Maybe you can give me some tips. Otherwise i'll die and die and die again... :(
Thanks in advance.

Hello. I'm glad that you think so, there has been quite a bit of effort put down into it :)

A new pair of gloves should be quite easy to find, besides from that your gear looks quite good. After you've bought a new pair of gloves I'd save up for the Shavronne's Wrappings.

You have 5 skill points you can save in your skill tree. Remove Occultist's Dominion, the two stats nodes to its left, and practical application + the node leading to it. If you need the dex from PA then you can allocate a +30 node instead.

Yea it takes some currency to make everything roll, but all the items are not required to play with the character. I've used this build as a league starter a few times and it has worked out pretty well, even if I was starting from scratch. For farming white and yellow maps you should be fine as long as you have the 5l Lorica and some decent ES items, but if you want to easily farm red maps then more investment will be required (that's usually how it works for most builds).

The easiest and cheapest improvement you can get atm is a lvl 20 quality 20 corrupted SRS gem that should only cost a few chaos and help with dmg and clear speed. Then you probably can upgrade your boots (although you might need to drop the movement speed if you want more ES on them), helmet, and possibly gloves too before saving for the Shav's.

As for making currency so you can buy the items. There's been some discussion earlier on in this thread about it. But in essence it's about mapping a lot, mapping quickly, and reducing down time between maps.
