I changed a lot in my gear recently: with 3 Amethyst Ring and 3 Heraldry, I can use SkitterBots now.
The offensive side feels good, 2m7 DPS, can kill bosses way easier than before. But the defensive side feels worse: I died more than before (when having Flesh and Stone actives).
Can someone takes a look at my PoB and tell me what is wrong?

P/s: Vaal 4 Raise Spectre and not one turns out good. FeelsBad.
i went half heraldry/half disciples then ran discipline and herald of purity. Found i didnt need the dps auras other than hatred. Also made getting rings of nostalgia easy as you dont need max res reduction on HOA. 12% spell block/5% ES on block on shield was great (i was lucky to get a +1 to phy spells which is great but not needed imo) and i ran deflection as an annoint. With the E/S on hit watchers you extremely tanky.

Thanks!
For the Watcher it's over budget for me now.
Can I ask why Herald Of Purity? It doesn't add any damage for HoAg. And damage buff is not applied for HoAg. Or these summons are just for tank?
I discovered that with 2 Amethyst ring, charisma and nodes in mana reservation, you don't even need Heraldry anymore.

Hello,
I have a 47 templar, who was going to be Storm Brand.
I was wondering if I could convert it into HOAG Mana Guardian like this build?
If so, would I be better off leveling to 68 as storm brand, or trying to change right now to HOAG and level the gems as i go?
https://pastebin.com/Dpv3LRQ4
Thanks for that, and any more advice you can give me to make this a smooth transition.
Well you better off leveling to 68 as storm brand then full switch to HoaG if you like. The build is only good when you reach level 68.
Before that, I used Rain of Arrows with bleeding to leveling up.

For me it was just defence. But everyone feels a different need of off/def. I tend to play a bit more defensively as i hate dying but the DPS was still fine with the gear i had

Yeah I hate dying too. I'm trying to squeeze some defensive skills with minium mana reserved but that seems hard.
Still I have one question: I think we use SkitterBots not because of their damage but their shock/chill effect and HoAg does so much more damage with Shocked enemies.
I see in your PoB config that you still check option "Is enemy shocked". But where does "shock" come from with no SkitterBots?

With 2 rings 46 and 48, you don't need even charisma and 4% reservation node near CI. Switch to disciples and Herald of Purity as 3rd aura.

Hello guys, just finally put charisma on my amulet, wishing to run with skitterbots... but it seems that with Hatred and Discipline, I don't have enough mana to put on Skitterbots... Don't know what is the issue here, anyone can help ?
I do have the ring, but it gives 39% less mana reservation on herald of agony ... maybe 39 isnt enough ?? Which quality catalyst i need to use to up it up ? The build says : ''Well-rolled Circle of Nostalgia (at least 40% which is not hard with quality catalysts)''
For now my ring has 39 per default, but maybe I can use Catalyst to up it ? Never use those yet
And yes i have 4 heraldry in my clusters.
My Enlighten is level 3 also... maybe need a lvl 4 ? Idk the build says lvl 3 OR lvl 4 Enlighten...

@Manu_333 load your build in POB and experiment there. It is much easier that way. I ran 39 circle for some time. I think you should be able to activate Skitterbots with lvl 4 Enlighten and 4% reduced mana reserved node near Chaos Inoculation.

@Megatherion
Just tried using some catalyst on my ring, but that wasnt enough yet, I kinda forgot that you had the +4% mana reserve point near the Chaos Inoculation, I put a point there, and with my ring now being a 43%, it works for now.
Later I could try to get a Enlighted lvl 4 and maybe ditch that passive point. I don't really know because the POB shows me at still having 222 mana unreserved, but ingame i got 149 unreserved ... Dunno why, it seems POB is not always true :P

@Manu_333 make sure when you reload build in POB you remove old items and turn on relevant auras. For me for some reason it always turns off energy shield aura. Also in POB is should be easy for you to see if Enlighten 4 will allow you to abandon that node.

Hi guys
I need some help/advice to my build. First of all im playing on PS4
Here is POB for reference
https://pastebin.com/DZLpwjbU
As far as now in my opinion I lack DMG (or in other words mobs are not dying 2fast)
Right now I have 8,6k ES and for defence layer its OK for now.
Im open for any sugestions. I want to add that I know I need clusters but getting Pure agony + heraldry on PS is hard. I will prioritize getting them.
Thanks
