Hi, I will be doing this build but as Pathfinder and in HC Legion. Thanks for the suggestion.

Oh, Pathfinder sounds interesting. Actually, this funny thing happens when I enable Herald of Agony on this build:



For some reason it gives 500k extra poison DPS, lol. So, instead of Herald of Ash, Herald of Agony with poison prolif might be pretty cool (on PF).

There is a poison support gem which gives a high MORE multiplier against poisoned enemies, but HoA's chance to poison is not enough to utilize it.

Yeah, sadly with just HoaG we are only at 5 active poisons (what is still pretty decent with no investment).

Anyway, main post should be now updated with actual guide, hopefully I did not missed anything.

Hey bro, appreciate the guide! I thought you might want to add two things though for newer players ... one, make sure you get some added strength on your amulet and/or something else for the cold to fire support. Also, getting flat mana somewhere on your gear to be able to run Discipline/HoA/Hatred. Even with the reduced aura reservations, you may still not have enough mana to run everything smoothly.

Other than that, this will also be my league starter...exactly what I was looking for!

Oh big thanks for the guide but it would be perfect to create an additional lvl 40 or 30 tree in the pastebin or just mention which nodes to take first for leveling.

Great thanks again for the guide

But why? You said earlier that this is possible.

Inb4 league start!

Also, I changed your staff to have +2 Socketed Support Gems with Empower 4. This is something like 20% more damage than the spell crit craft. If you also had +1 level of Gems this would get even dumber.

Just food for thought.

I'd replace Inc AOE for Empower. Controlled destruction can be swapped for Conc Effect when bossing.

Phys reflect is possible with gem swap and Hatred Watcher's Eye if someone really wants to, but I will personally just reroll the map (also people will not have Hatred Watcher's Eyes early, and without it 100% phys conversion is too much effort, so I don't want to reccomend workarounds around it in main post to not confuse people).

Well, it is prefix, and spell crit is suffix so that will not work, sadly. I tried setup with Empower and + lvls and it was only like 20k extra damage for big bump in crafting costs
