Also, why we run guardian accendancy while we capped (or almost) capped with phys. mitigation with new alternative quality on determination? Some guy told me that phys mitigation from guard ascendancy and from armour different things and guard one is better, but this question still pretty unclear for me. Does anyone tested other ascendancies?

Also, i manage to fit dread banner with new alt quality, it reserved only 5% mana for me but provide a nice defensive layer with redusing enemy accuracy and less damage dealing from enemies linked to enhance, feels so much safier now

For those who provided their pastebins and asked advice, I found that it's really time consuming to check each one. It would be nice if you could ask specific questions aside from checking each pastebins. This would be beneficial to the community too as questions would be answered. If you actually made an effort to analyze your build in PoB and compare it to OP's build, and still you feel you're still lacking, then ask your questions here.

If you don't already know. You could also check builds in poe.ninja. Search for players who use Nebulis and there you can see aura stacker builds. You can also search for specific skills to filter out more. Say you're using spark, see what people are doing using spark. You can also import their pastebins in PoB so that you can see their builds in PoB.

After you do all that, and still confused, don't hesitate to ask here. It's just hard to check each of your pastebins. And again, it wouldn't benefit the community. It's better to ask questions.

One more thing. It would really help if you activate all your auras before asking why it's not working. As an aura stacker, we don't have any source of dmg/defence from the tree, aside from some ES nodes. All comes from aura effect from cluster jewel which obviously enhance our aura. Without aura, or even incomplete auras, the build will not work.

Let me breakdown the auras here:
- Purities (Lightning, Ice, Fire) -- Cannot be dropped 'cause we rely on resistance both for dmg and defence
- Hatred & Wrath -- Another main source of dmg
- Zealotry -- dmg and survivability
- Vitality -- survivability
- Divergent Determination -- armour
- Grace -- survivability. Paired with Divergent Determination is a must for more armour.
- Discipline -- main source of ES.
- Clarity -- mana sustain.
- Haste -- speed. dmg
- Precision -- dmg
- Herald of Ice -- clearing.

If you really have to drop auras, I would argue that the last 3 are the least priority. Based on PoB, these will result to least dmg loss. If you want to drop survivability, you could do that too. As a player who prefer survivability more than dmg, I would opt to drop any of those 3. I think it's too much if you drop all 3. I would mention this again, it's so easy to get all auras active for cheap. I posted my starting PoB a few pages back. That was created with 11ex investment at the time I created that. For an aura stacker, I'd say it's cheap.

Don't worry about how shit your gears are. Just prioritize activating all auras and you're good.

Another thing, we all have different expectations about the build. Good for me, maybe is very bad for you, so there's that. I just find it very interesting that some posts their pastebins and it's very much better than mine but still say it's not working for them.

The build is already put together here. I'd say not so hand-holding type though, but still it's here.

Not complaining here. Let's just help each other to have more fun playing this build and PoE in general.

Cheers!
