Wasn't there a cluster jewel variant of this build, can't seem to find the PoB link for it anymore? It had the one large, two medium, two small with Prismatic Dance.

Looks like OP took it out. It was very early in the league that a guy posted what he was using. Since then, a lot of people have experimented with other ones. I dont remember exactly what it was, but I can give you some ideas of what other people are using, or decent ones to get.

Most of us are using a large chaos with Unwaveringly Evil, Wicked Pall, Unspeakable gifts. For the most part, it just gives some decent QoL, damage, and theres not other ones that are that great. Stun Immunity, some explosions for help and just cause it sounds cool, lol, and decent damage. I think the variation comes in the mediums and smalls.

Mediums there are a few. The most mapping damage is gonna be Low Tolerance/Wasting Affliction. Or, you can use more utility based ones(that still has good damage) in Brush with Death/Exposure Therapy. There's also a high resist version if thats what your after, where people are using 3x Purities/Aul's, and then Pure commander/X medium jewels. You can get your resists up to like 82%, or do a double cluster set up and get then to 86-88%. If you do go that route, though, you gotta give up at least 35% of your damage, if not 45%.(Can't use Agony or 16% chaos neck). Honestly, just look at the notables and decide what you like. All the ones I mentioned are good.

Smalls, there is Fettle, and then Enduring Composure is nice. Fettle basically will give you 300+ hp, and Enduring composure you will permanent 3 endurance charges. It can help you cap out your Phys resist, or ele weakness resists, etc. I dont think I'd use Prismatic dance over either of those. If you dont want the endurance charges, I think a 2nd Fettle is probably just superior to 1% max resist. Thats easily another 300+ life. If you do the purity/aul's build, I think you can get pure commander's on smalls, so thats an option.

There may be some others floating around, too. This is just the ones you may commonly see people using this late into the thread, and in a month it may all change if they dont let you stack them. Then, you just be mixing and matching one of each.

Just crafted this. Here's the process:

- Craft 30% with perfect fossils (optional)
- Use Prime Resonators with Aberrant, Corroded, Metallic and Shuddering
- Aiming for these mods:
Prefix - Adds # to # Chaos Damage
Prefix - 60% chance to deal 100% more damage
Suffix - Increased Attack Speed
Suffix - Increased Damage With Poison

I had an open prefix and chance to blind on hit.

- Annul extra prefix for multi
- Annul extra suffix if you want Aspect
- Craft prefixes cannot be changed
- Divine until chaos damage is perfect or close
- If empty prefix, do the same for suffixes
- Craft Chaos damage multi on empty prefix
- Beastcraft Aspect of the Spider using Fenumus, first of the night beast

Maybe it can help someone. Fun crafting project.


Bought for 5ex now i'm good
I've been playing PoE since closed beta, but I never reached lvl 95 or 36 challenges. Also never made more than 3 ex currency. Always got bored at lvl 85-90 and just kept rerolling... This leauge I tried this build and I got to say this is the strongest charachter I ever had. Lvl 97; elder, shaper, uber elder, sirus 8 all done. Very close to 38 challenges. Made more than 50 exalts.

So thank you for this guide and GL to you all!
I have had my fill of words and tearful farewells. I desire blood and cries of our enemy.

Not a bad way to use the open suffix.
Thanks for the suggestion!

Bought this for 24 ex today, to finally have enough Int on gear to cut the 30 int nodes on the tree and have enough points for a cluster jewel setup.

The whole setup gave me about 4.5m DPS increase, but cost me ~400 max life, some block chance and accuracy rating.

I'm very unsure if I cut the right points from the basic tree to make room for the clusters now, could someone maybe look over my tree and tell me if I can relocate some points for better use?

Tips about the clusters also appreciated of course, haven't used them on this build so far.

Dang, nice neck. I'd have bought something like that had I seen it; but I've burnt myself out a little bit not gonna lie so been sparingly playing, and not really looking for upgrades.

Looking at your tree, it looks like you cut some life and other things to make room; a lot of us cut the block nodes. I honestly cant tell you which is better. Only thing I can really say is to just cut them and get other nodes back and see it feels and vice versa. Thats the only difference I see in our trees; I kept the life nodes and cut the block, you cut the life and kept the block. Its probably down to whatever you feel comfortable with.

As far as clusters go, I dont think Dark Ideation gives very much damage to this build. I see you still have the mana node, but Wicked Pall is like 35% chaos damage. Its not a big deal, but your character is basically at that squeeze everything I can out of it point, so it might matter on min/maxing to you. You could use another notable on your Low Tolerance Jewel. Just about any of them are good in my opinion. Brush with Death, Exposure Therapy, Wasting Affliction. I've been partial to wasting affliction lately, because I've reached a point I kill or phase things in 3-4 seconds, so doing the damage faster(Wasting Affliction is 10% faster poison damage)just seems better than buffing up my PoB numbers. But, I been using a longer duration skill, where Pestilent is pretty fast. Id add one to that jewel, though. I'd probably also roll that small jewel into Fettle instead of flow of life. Fettle just gives so much life; just Fettle will almost make up the life you lost. Enduring Composure is nice, too, it will give you 3 endurance charges basically all hte time, and this will cap your phys DR out at 90% and give you some resist buffer on ele weakness. But, just stacking 2 Fettles is like 600 life and more than great.

Honestly, my 3 favorite notables are probably Enduring Composure, Fettle, and Unspeakable Gifts, lol. 2 smalls and a large explosion one that just makes a cool sound and punch when you kill things. Its got a nice feel. I dunno how helpful it is, but still.

Another thing you can try, since I'm sure you got some resist to play with, is using a Very Large Thread of hope in the ranger jewel slot. I'm not currently doing it, because I was trying to level and I'm not ele weakness capped with it in, but it will allow you to pick up Hunter's Gambit, Heart of Oak, Swift Venoms, and Revenge of the Hunted for 4 points. Its pretty nice if you can squeeze in the resists.

Outside of that, I wish I saw that neck. Grats.
I actually do not have any resists to play with, my Lightning and Cold Resistance are spot on 75%, that's why I use the Flow of Life Jewel as well.
I couldn't find any Fettle Jewel with enough resistance to cap me out.

About the large jewel: I don't use Dark Ideation at all, didn't invest those 2 points, because I don't know where to take them from. About the Mana Node, Yeah, I could probably cut Primal Spirit, but I'd have to take wisdom of the glade instead. Can't make the Int requirement otherwise. Still one point saved for another 5% life node or something.

About the Medium Cluster jewel: I didn't take that top node so far, because again: I didn't have a spare point, but with that point saved I will look for one with 2 useful Notables.

Thanks for the advice, I will try out block vs. life nodes.

Here's my current PoB btw. to avoid any confusion about allocated points
