I would like to have some tips to improve my gear - maybe are there good corruptions for the Cold Iron Point Daggers?

for better damage, also you dont use multistrike, I think you are lossing a ton of damage there.

Thanks for this build, I really enjoyed using it as a benchmark and built my own version along the way.

I wanted to share with everyone, a version without golems and spectres. I'd say really easy to play since you just have to run around and keep your sentinels up all the time.

End-Game: Not HC viable, All content, Sirus A8 deathless (possible to down last phase during the 4-sirus illusion mode), Max Deli viable with deaths.
Life - 6.67K. 9 sentinels (4.8m dps each - including vaal haste, 2 curses).
If I add awakened multistrike + awakened phys dmg + Impale (21/20); dps will go up to 5.8m for each minion.
Gear is ~20 exalted. Expensive ones are the Helm, Amulet and awakened Gems. Other than that, everything cost between 10-50C.
Cluster Jewels: ~2 exalted. large/medium cost between 10-50C each; I crafted fettle jewels myself and spent about 1k alterations).
Pastebin: https://pastebin.com/HDK2vB8k

Budget: not HC viable, all content, Sirus A8 (1-2 deaths during last phase), Max Deli viable with deaths.
Life - 6K. 9 sentinels (3.8m dps each - including vaal haste, 2 curses).
Gear is ~4 exalted. Majority will be from Amulet +1 phys (1-1.5exa), chest for 1exa.
Cluster Jewels: ~1 exalted. Buy them instead of crafting, may not have the ideal jewel sockets but you can disregard some life in early-game.
Budget Pastebin: https://pastebin.com/mpUykeDV

Main difference between Budget and End-game is that I had to attempt to squeeze the pride aura in for the boost in damage. I have removed this in the Budget Pastebin and effectively, you will still hit ~4m dps.

Feel free to hit me up if you have any questions on the playing style.

Gz, but i dont understand why you not using spectres, they are op! I know AG is very good too but in this build i dont see how can fit if theres nothing to help with fortify with kingmaker as you dont have minions to be supported with. Sentinels life gets restored while you hit so them cant die then fortify isnt a point for them. And you are suposed to get fortify using whirling blades. The good point i see is the culling+50% crit, but still you missing damage from 3 op spectres that can deal maybe the same ammount or more damage? Its worth?
