so way back i used to do totem siege ballista then i gave up. But this just gain my interest and i love it. I kinda did some changes and wondering where i can improve on it also if i should just straight up follow your tree. any way I can up my dps to yours.

Whats your dps when your at your base for your siege? mines 52k when hover over the siege icon.

I was trying some clusters to see if i can up the dps but still can't be close to yours.

And where do i find the Maraketh 6624 Prismatic Jewel?

My Pob is - https://pastebin.com/PvdicgHQ

I try t11 map with 8 mods + 100% insanity + 3 sextants + scarab + master quest and with that build i even can't kill white mob fast. It's look like raid in World of warcraft, i kite everything almost minute, delirium bosses i kill almost 20 minutes and every touch kills me instanly.

Well, I have buddies with Storm brand Archmage (meta) and the completely imba Herald build (super-meta?) and whilst they do seem to handle 100% insanity a bit better than me, I've also been carrying others through 20 waves of simulacrum since my first run 3-4 weeks ago. I switch my tree up to include Fangs of Frost (+54 cold damage and +8% cold penetration) if I'm doing a whole bunch of delirium farming, because penetration really helps with 100% insanity. With 3 players in the zone (typically two of them cowering in a corner on the boss waves) I'm still soloing bosses in under 15 seconds and that's with all the enemies getting +100 extra hp from the extra players.

I've looked at your character and your gear seems fine. I'm not sure the cluster jewel is doing you any favours, but I can't see what skill points you've taken beyond the cluster jewel node. Ancestral Reach and Sleepless sentries are nice QoL improvements, but honestly you're missing SO MUCH DPS and survival by skipping the entire top-right branch of the tree.

If I cut off the tree like you have, PoB says that I lose:
- 2 totems
- 37% of my total DPS
- 620 life
- 17% of my life regen
- 6% of my final evade chance
- 70% crit chance and 35% crit multi

Is what you're getting from the cluster jewel even half as good as that?!

I don't think Point blank and Ironwood worth anything, if you respec you save 3 points.

Thanks for this Angry RP, loving so far but still have no idea how to get the Maraketh 6624 jewel.

EDIT: I followed advice and bought a blank Primsatic Jewel, however a divine orb says there are no mods to modify?

Please explain what I should use on it? An Alch first maybe, then Divine until Dex?

CONFUSED

Thanks

Another quick question please:

How do you run hated, herald of cold and precision and still have mana left to cast the many totems?

I'm really getting mana issues when casting totems, even with Curse on Hit at lvl 1 and hardly using Frenzy at all. Is it just a case of mana flask spam?

Thanks again.
