[3.10] Death's Oath CI Occultist (RETIRED)

"
I'm trying to decide between this build, CI vortex, and Herald of Agony for my league start. Does Anyone have any thoughts between those?
How easy is it to make a viable ED from this build if you get to maps and decide DO is not for you?

I've never played either of those builds so I'm not sure. AFaik HoAg is really strong defensively. If I had to make a guess, I'd say this build is the among the weaker ones in general.

I will say this, afaik, this version of DO is probably close to the fastest in terms of clearspeed, so if that's what you're looking for, its a good one to compare against HoAg and vortex builds and compare.

We level as ED Cont and switch to DO, so it literally takes nothing to switch back.

Hello fatfat64, I looked at your build and let myself change a bit, namely I exchanged The gray Spire for Cane of Unravelling and Essence Drain for Soulrend. I added "Damage Over Time and Chaos Damage Overtime Multipier" from Corruption ring. Net 3x "Energy Shield" from "Unnatural Calm" + other 3x "Energy Shield" from "Foresigh" and I go to "Melding". Thanks to these changes, I have 7610 ES and 861k dot dps on Soulrend. On the minus side there is a loss of ~20k dot dps from Death Aura. I think it's not worth exchanging something for Allelopathy, because I will not use Blight anyway.

What do you think? Will it be easy to clean map 16?

You're using WP instead of Profane Bloom and you're dropping the nodes upto charistma? That's a lot of DO dmg loss, clearing will be harder, specially with no blight. You can turn soulread into a clearskill with gmp, but at that point, why bother with DO at all? That's a Soulrend build.

Well, DO is so fun, because it is always a passive dps. I assume that I will build to max 91/92 lvl and set the skill tree. But for me is theorycraft, because now I start play Incinerate build :)

Hey i am doing your build and its really fun :)

I started off with Bane (some build like raiz)
and respecced into this thinking it would be really powerful.

You should update some stuff

Like helm analysis needs to be tested again cause

https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Void_Gaze

is -20 chaos res

another option is to go for abberant (-9) - ( -10) chaos res


edit: struggle for ES pool is real sometimes i have mediocre gear but all the money in the world, i suppose only watchers could help at this point

atm 4.7 really mediocre gear llv 92

need dem ideas

You're right mb, didn't see the buff and didn't consider fossil crafts. Thanks! I'll update the descriptions.

If you're struggling with ES, get a shield for now.

How can you apply the 3rd Curse?

Temp Chains - Malevolence - Despair from Flask

-> thought we can only apply 2 curses at a time because of whispers of doom...
