[3.25] Herald of Agernaut - Perfect first build - Tanky AF and 7/7 Uber Down
 VIDEO/GAMEPLAY Video shows Alch and Go T16 + Pinnacle Eater of World fight from 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcS7MZMPVAE  UBER BOSS VIDEOS Uber Sirus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8PnM2XKKNU Uber Shaper: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yon-26__2uc Uber Searing Exarch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhgVuEYXb3U Uber Maven (Needed MageBlood): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOxjd7JqVGo Uber Uber Elder: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGm-5N9CHEQ Uber Eater of Worlds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nklm1Qrzpeo Uber Cortex: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zcIo4VlVKoc THE BUILD In a nutshell it's a very tanky Juggernaut with disappointing Uber pinnacle damage output. If the damage sucks... why play this build? There's a few reasons. Firstly yes it's not a giga-damage build capable of farming highly juiced content. But make no mistake... for general map farming (Alch and Go all Tiers) our scorpion minion 1 taps every white and blue mob it attacks and is an unstoppable force that widdles down Rares and Bosses while our Juggernaut stands unbothered; armored like a Mountain VS a hail storm. Secondly this build is super easy to gear and progress in maps, especially in Trade league. For 30 chaos or less not only are you Godly tanky... but your relentless and literally 'invincible' scorpion minion clears Rare Red maps with ease. 1 cold iron point and The Golden Rule jewel are all you need to start your successful warpath through maps. Thirdly 99.9% of the time this is a 1-button build. This is a watch streams/tv shows on a second monitor build. I've recently tested Winter Orb to apply virulence stacks and found it worked great. So we don't even have to AIM anymore. Just stutter step/channel through maps and stand still and channel in the Bosses terrified face. Ah it's just too easy guys. I'll give an honorable mention to the fact this build is easy on the eyes and the PC. Now I enjoy seeing cast on crit, screens exploding, 1000 projectile, flicker strikers with 20 APS as much as the next Wraeclastian - but give it about 10 minutes then I don't. This build is plain. I shoot a few ice shards. My scorpion shoots a few tail spikes. Enemies turn to corpses. Simple. It keeps the screen very readable in combat and keeps the FPS above 60! LEVELLING To be honest guys leveling isn't my strong suit! But it's fine because the gem Summon Raging Spirit exists :P I recommend getting this gem from Witch (from completing 'Breaking Some Eggs' quest) to level your Marauder with and just cruising staying a few levels above area level so your SRS gem is high level/damage. I did a Act 1 Path of Building so you know how to start SRS and feel strong. Level 17 - https://pobb.in/rUl_JFLh--kC From there it's just do the usual things... get life, resistance, upgrade to a 4-link, etc etc You can swap to Herald of Agony after Library quest in Act 3 if you want. I usually do that... but be aware you get the gems from Library as level 1 so you'll need to level your Herald of Agony + supports up before progressing. Ideally you'll find/use a 4 link by library for either SRS or Herald of Agony going forward. And 4 link is plenty damage to finish entire campaign on either skill. I like to switch to Herald of Agony early so I never have to worry about mana issues which will happen with SRS as it levels up/gets more gems etc. UNIQUE ITEMS USED      PoB Links: Level 17 - https://pobb.in/rUl_JFLh--kC Level 80 using Storm Brand - https://pobb.in/16BDZIepK_9w Level 80 using Winter Orb - https://pobb.in/lzTc9oedmxAv Level 100 facetank Pinnacles PoB - https://pobb.in/XYndnbjJppzj (NOTE: With Herald of Agony supports you WANT Awakened Vicious Projectiles instead of Awakened Added Fire Dmg support BUT wearing a pure strength chest and getting 4G 1B 1R costs on average 4600 chromatic orbs using 3G crafting bench - cheapest way to get it - so hold off til you're RICH) Level 100 Uber Maven PoB - https://pobb.in/VZCNa73UkBFG   "The key to winning any fight is simply staying alive."

" EDIT - leveling video and PoB done. Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1KWb0CvniE PoB https://pastebin.com/vC664Xwk I'll do my best to add a leveling build/PoB over the next 5 hours or so. I'm playing Herald of Agony minion while I farm for required build items, but I recommend people play their favorite builds/play styles until they're ready to fully respec and become Arakali's Fang Juggernauts.

Hey, have you been using this build? how is it working out for you ?
|
|
" Still in Herald of Agony stage atm. Level 88 - Character name 'WeSpooderAgane'. I'm not the fastest cab on the rank. Haven't had any big drops either to power my gearing progression. I plan on doing a new post update and YouTube build progress video every week or so. So Friday will have some news for ya. Spoiler though... Affliction mechanic making things too tanky and inefficient for me atm - so I'm ignoring it til Red Maps/Spooder build. "The key to winning any fight is simply staying alive."

Why level 94 before we have to switch? or is it not enough dps otherwise
