does the pob fork calculate maim correctly? If so then you would gain 4% more damage if you use blood and sand instead of linking maim to flesh and stone.

PoB does calculate it correctly, so you're actually correct. I originally wasn't using that because of mana issues (as blood and sand uses more mana), but now that I have both my channelling rings, maybe it would work. also, the more AoE swap would help clearing.

I'll check and see if I can still sustain my 2 mana cost. Rallying Cry actually helps a lot in this regard too. I'll let you know and update the guide, as you're right, this is a better option.

One thing is that if you get a mana reduction enchant, you could run both for 10% more damage.

Hey everyone. Just thought I’d share how the build is going for me and what I’ve been trying to add/upgrade and what seems worth it to me.

I’m fairly end game geared with 13mil Shaffer dps with no totem, curse, or dread banner placed and just under 7k life. Decided to take a long shot and awakener orbed explode and %dex together and it went about as bad as it could have lol. Ended up with %dex, explode, life regen, and stun recovery lol. Bright side is at least it has a prefix open for life I guess? I’m just gunna try to sell it and stick with Wildwrap probably. The elder chest upgrade is really only a tank side-grade anyway, as you lose ~90% inc damage from wildwrap anyway, which for me is like 11% (1.4m dps) or so. I think the only thing I’m gunna mess with to further upgrade the build is run live searches for high tier Vulnerability on hit rings to try to find. So far I’ve seen none on the market that are what I’d be looking for yet though. Outside of that I don’t think there’s much to change. At 13m dps and 7k life I’ve already done simulacrum deathless easy as hell, including a wave 18 Kosis that I killed in less than 3 seconds. I looked into the delve suffix on helm for monsters take inc phys danage, and it doesn’t seem worth it for losing yet another res spot and it only increases my damage by 5% or so anyway. Seems to me the only upgrade worth doing is the curse on hit ring like I said. I’ve already got t1 dex in every slot besides one ring with t2, and I’m sitting right at 1400 dex. I really want to try to hit 1 million hideout dps with nothing but auras which I think I can maybe achieve with full 21 gems and awakened brutality and melee phys. I’m at just under 900k hideout dps atm so that’s my goal for the league atm. Gunna try my best to make it happen!

But yeah, the build has been great for me so far and I’m really enjoying it. Appreciate the guide and idea!

Glad it's been good for you! It was my league starter, and I'm still playing it. It may not be the fastest map clearer, but it can do everything in the game, which I appreciate. Yeah, there's not a lot more upgrades to do I think, but vuln on hit rings are on my radar as well. Levels go a long way, so cranking out some xp by delving or breach running might be the best option. I'm really unsure of explodey chests on this character, and would agree that wildwrap is amazing. The only upgrade imo is the elder chest with a lot of life. Even on mine, which is almost perfect, was a 10% dps downgrade (just a 10% hp upgrade). I've been farming T16 80% delirius maps and simulacrums, and it's been fine. Only crazy unlucky mods on wave 20's have been hard.

I'm not sure how people get by without the warcry recovery. I bind mine to my left click and just use it whenever I try to spam movement to dodge something anyways.

Thanks for the update. I'm running Dual Strike Zerker and it's simply not scaling good for me. Care to explain how much investment you into your jewels ? I'm wondering if I should re-roll but I have about 15ex if I manage to sell all my gear. Be curious to see your PoB as well

You are missing the whole concept of Hollow Palm, why are you using a weapon? Take it off, Hollow Palm is one of the fastest leveling methods nowadays, so you're doing something wrong if you say that it's slow.

I put weapon after I got tired of the slow levelling. Ignore the weapon. Check out the other stuff. I dont use weapon or gloves and I get 100 dps tooltip. I do 1k dps with a unique weapon lol.. Thats why I am kinda confused.

So i was looking at that guys PoB that was building this crit based and got the crazy 120m+ dps numbers. However it was being discredited for having expensive gear. however, i removed like all the gear that i thought would be expensive (almost everything including every jewel), and its still pushing like 20m without berserk. It just seems objectively better, comments?
