I'm struggling with my single target DPS on this build. When i check the POB, despite 70% similarity in gearing with OP, i'm only be able to achive half of the overall DPS.

Kindly need your generous input on my build because this is so far the most comfortable build i played this league. thanks

Well the 30% you're missing is a big 30%, you don't have +1 curse annointed and don't have Awakened Generosity w/ 20% quality for +1 to linked auras. You also don't have Melee Physical support on your Dagger so if you're using Melee Splash your damage will be pretty shit for bosses. I wouldn't use Punishment anymore either, after I finished with this build this league I think Despair is better overall. If you can afford it buy an Envy Aul's Uprising, it's 3ex currently.

Ahh.. thanks heaps for the explanation, i've changed it to melee phys and suddenly i got huge jump in damage.
Btw, how can I get the option "Is enemy on low life" in POB configuration option?

POB has to be counting Punishment as active, so you'd need +1 curse annointed, then it's in the config tab, but I'd use Despair over Punishment.

Hey, in your maven vid you have spectres,


In the guide you say use Carion.

Is there a preference for one of the other? when?

Thank you

That's because the video is from last league before I stopped using Specters. Don't use Specters, use a Carrion Golem.

Need help fixing my defenses, dying a bunch at T14s :(

Any opinion on flesh offering vs spirit offering?

spirit offering = 30% extra as chaos


flesh offering = 30% attack speed and movement speed.

But you also get the half that movement speed.

I guess which one is more dps, and would you prefer flesh offering if you are already capped on chaos res?

Spirit Offering is better in all scenarios.

I don't get it with the initial spider spawn. Doing it as described in the YT video, sometimes 20 spiders spawn,somtimes only 2 and often none. Couldn't figure out what is influencing the spawn rate.

The writhing jar spawns two worms that have low hp

When you cast bane on them, it kills the worms.


The unique weapon has Arakaali has the effect

"100% chance to trigger 'Raise spiders' on kill"

The Raise spiders on kill has the effect:

"Raise two spectral spiders from each nearby corpse "


So you would need:

Worms to trigger on kill (provided by the unique writhing jar)
Some corpses (10, since each corpse raises 2 spiders, and there is maximum of 20 spiders)


To get the the 10 corpses and save time, you can link desecrate with spell cascade. (so you only cast desecrate once).


What can go wrong:

Your corpses get consumed by Feast of flesh on the devouring diadem helmet. (resulting in no corpses to trigger raise)

The, when you then cast bane on only 2 worms, the first worm dies and creates corpse, and the then the second dies and because there is now 1 corpse, it raises 2 spiders only.

OR

Your Carion (or other minions) kill the worms instead of you.
If the worms are not killed directly by you, it will not trigger the on kill effect (so 0 spiders spawn).

Carion has some aoe attacks and is fast, so ya need to be quick.


Guide has a great video, however I do wish, it had a written section on the exact mechanics.

Any chance of a list of anointment you would recommend?

Preferably some budget options too :)

Thank you!
