I have about 8 Ex in the box and where should i start to improve my build? I know i am missing a lot of levels, but i am not sure, wether i should go lifetap, blood magic or mana route. Cause there are so many different ways on poe.ninja.

I am a bit confused, if my skill tree is correct. If my jewels are correct (cluster jewels).


I'd suggest u start with warlord influenced one handed weapon with dot mods and a shield with as much def as possible, u should aim for 2500 def atleast.
And about resource cost its really up to u. Im playing with bloodmagic since acts and im super satisfied with it, no mana problems ever. Lifetap and mana variants might have more dmg cause they stack auras while with bloodmagic variant u use just one aura for pree, preferably malevolence since it has nice and cheap watcher's eye bonuses. Also with bm u dont care about -# mana mods on rings, phys dmg leeched ad mana mods on gear and etc etc etc
Just try to squeeze in ur gear as much phys dmg over time multi /faster bleeding mods without loosing maxed resists and positive chaos resist and u are good to go

Okay.
Any idea how i get maxblock?
I am at 62%. Do i need another Small Cluster with Block? Or new Ones?
When i get hit i am at 70% and with Tempest Shield 73%.

Instead of 2 passive with +3% notable, you can either go 3 passive with a +4% notable (ie Vicious Guard), or a 2 passive with +5% (One with the Shield) and you will be at max block. Or just some regular jewels in other sockets with +1% chance to block on them, but I'd got for the cluster.
I use something like this to get default 72% block chance without tempest shield.

"How come only evil forces were released?" - "Because there are no good forces."
"So, then. You don't believe that there is a God." - "There was a god."
"Well, then. Where is he now?" - "I killed him," said Kane.

At the beginning of my character building i was using the red nightmare jewel placed on left side of the tree where we later place thread of hope. Red nightmare gives 1% block chance per 3% elemental resistance in radius. It should be changed later when u start to min max, but at the beginning it is fine option

On the boots questions, since I got back from holiday with 3 pms asking how i crafted them, I will have to disappoint you.



I awakened elevated ailment avoidance and bleed mods, crafted keep suffix and used aisling t4 (wanted onslaught instead of extra movespeed but tried 4 times and didnt hit..) to get movespeed mod, benchcrafted life and used a leo bench.... that hit pierce.

crafting these from scratch deterministically is impossible (I think?)

Not really, but might cost abit, especially this late into the league!

You awaken the 2 elevated suffixes, if 1 open suffix you can reforge lightning with locked suffixes to guarantee lightning res suffix.

When it comes to prefixes, lock suffixes, reforge influence modifier/more common. They go for about 5-10 ex each on TFT atm, still seeing soime of these pop up now and then so not so bad. You have 1 in 4.4 chance to hit at least +1 pierce and 1 in ~9 chance to hit +2 pierce. If you fail, just go again, this part is costly but doable! And hopefully dont hit any more prefixes with the reforges, if you do, you can gamble annuling or just go again.

Finish off the boots with t4 Aisling with locked suffixes!
Dropped war banner, but now running both Pride and Malevolence with Herald of purity. Feels nice.


I can't get higher than 2kk - 2.5kk DPS, is there a way to deal more damage without sacrificing survivability?
Sirus and T16 goes pretty well but I just realized that 100% delirium maps with increased pack and full buffed goes bad. DPS check failed.
I'm in Blood Magic and No Crit, just pure phys bleed damage.
Can someone share their builds with the same energy (no mana, no crit, only phys, 6k+ life) but where you have 3kk+ DPS (8-10 if it possible :D).

I've been playing BM variant whole league and t16 100% deli goes fine, also all invitations complete and deathless maven.

U're missing culling strike of any kind which is straight 10% more dmg
bleeding speed on boots should add some too (im not sure we're lacking clearspeed to get more pierce, im sure its needed for mana variant since they are using rare armour without built in pierce support).
Lvl24 SST is nice bonus dmg.
also get glorious vanity jewel and divine it until u get some dmg over time mods on small passives and bloody savagery on any notable close by.
U should get thread of hope and anoint growth and decay, this will add some damage.
Maim support, i think cruelty scales our dmg better also u can link maim with totem or reckoning.

In addition ur source of curse is hextouch+reckoning which works only when u get hit, thats not instant curse plus u are wasting sockets, better put ur maim or culling there.

Anyway BM variant cant get same damage as aura stacking mana variant. We give up this luxury numbers for some qol and some free mods on rings/amulet/armour since we dont care about mana cost
