Hey I just had one quick question, how reliable is the proc on flammability when specced into hextouch? Having alot of fun with this build thank you for sharing!

Very reliable - probably best on orb of storms as it benefits from fanaticism. Other option is storm brand when fighting teleporting bosses like Maven or Sirus. However, this takes 3 gem slots just for convenience of aiming. While mapping you do not need flammability anyway, and I used it only for conquerors+ type of bosses. If you want curses during mapping, I would rather link it to arcanist brand, so cursing takes only 2 gem slots. You can also find circle guilt with flammability on hit implicit, if you do not mind slight damage loss. However, the best implicit there is faster ignite, which I would prioritize while setting up a search.

Hello,

So I wanted to try this build but the only thing hard to find is the sceptre.

I'm checking with POB but still it is hard to find a good one, so should I craft it myself?

thanks

Why not just use unique one...as stated, it is very hard to craft a better rare one.

Hey fantastic build! I re-rolled my BFBB inquis to this cos I got sick of dying all the time and have been enjoying it a lot. It seriously kicks ass for mapping and ultimatums, but I'm lacking a bit of DPS for endgame bossing.

I'm at around 10.5mil DPS. I killed A8 Sirus last night - it took a looooong time and I lost some portals (really need to avoid everlasting flames debuff) but it was doable. I failed Shaper with maven tho because she was healing him faster than I could kill him and eventually the floor was completely covered in crap :(.

Are there any obvious upgrades I can make to get 2-3mil more DPS without spending an absolute fortune? PoB is https://pastebin.com/pyLZDRu1

I'm 67lvl ,but mostly one shot on high yellow maps. Don't have the nerve to bring it to 80 and farm rest of stuff needed....Well, there was an attempt:D

So lvl 91 now nd the build is doing quite good on red maps with about 3 ex of gear total here. Boss dps is sitting at about 3 mil fully buffed in PoB and the tankiness is quite good. The only time I have felt any kind of fear is in an ultimatum with 60% reduced recovery and 70% avoid ele ailments map mods.

Overall the build is really good and a lot of fun to play. I did opt for augury of penitence as it feel really good for mapping since charge time is almost instant on maps and it is essentially like getting +2 to max res and free 16% more damage. To compensate I did opt for the cast speed nodes above ele overload and bosses feel perfectly fine so far. Also I have a personal thing against shield charge since it gets stuck on every little rock.

Looking forward to taking the build further with more expensive dps gear as I get some more time to play here.

Just chain white magic maps. You will level quite fast. Also my man you need to get pious path. That will increase your tankiness by an insane amount. I would honestly unspec out of instruments of zeal for it. You will notice a HUGE difference.

And path towards scion life wheel to get the timeless jewel for a massive es boost.

I am happy that you enjoy it. It will definitely not shred the bosses, but rather than that kill them steadily. One of my most reliant characters. On the other hand, I understand how it feels after playing some meta glass-cannons.

I have checked your PoB, and you actually have 1.2M SDPS. 10.5M is the total damage over time from one shot. This is why it feels so low and slow to kill. Quick damage boost would be to enchant your boots (5% DPS increase), and reroll the cluster jewel with scorched fossils to something with fire multiplier/faster ignite. If you get a pair of these mods, you will get 10-15% more damage. Right now, you have almost 9s ignite duration, so you afford faster ignite mod. The rest of the damage will gradually come with the gear. As some people also suggested, you can try taking Augury of Penitence and drop Fanaticism.

Regarding the Shaper+Maven fight itself, I remember that was even a rant on reddit saying about this particular case. Personally, I believe this is a really low-played mechanic from GGG, but well... Shaper has always been a pure-dps check and with Maven it is even worse. So to counteract her healing there are only three solutions - get better dps, play occultist or throw frost bombs. Especially in the beginning, frost bomb is the only viable solution. I know it feels bad, but there is nothing else you can really do until you get better gear/gem levels.

It is really hard to craft a better one, but if you want, please check craftofexile website. The way would be probably essences and multimodding. The jagged and metallic fossils are mutually exclusive and they also exclude the best mod on the Crusader base, which is phys as extra lightning.

EDIT: Just checked in PoB. Rare, uninfluenced stabilising sceptre with max rolls on phys and fire DoT multi (flaring, merciless, fanatical) is only +4.1% better than a well-rolled Doryani's Catalyst that I bought for 15c. I have also quickly checked whether you can do something with woke orb. So, for instance, crusader+elder item (phys as extra lightning + fire damage/penetration) AND an open prefix for crafting fire DoT multi is only 1% better than Doryani's Catalyst. And I am not mentioning other mods as attack and cast speed, crit chance and not to forget - life leech.

Sorry to hear that, but on the other hand you did not even play this build yet, so I am a little surprised by dropping so early. It is perfectly normal that you are getting one-shotted in high yellow ones. Lvl 67 is a level that I usually just kill Kitava and start white maps...

This can be mitigated by the gear of course, but looking at your gear, you are wearing mostly random scraps. So, if you are willing to continue, my advice would be to check the gear progression first, invest 10c more (really - this is all you need now - Hrimnor's Resolve, Ashcaller, Aegis Aurora) and run a handful of white/low yellow maps to level up. I really seldom died while leveling, so by reaching red maps, I was already level 90. In the meantime, buy blue nightmare, glorious vanity, the surrender, etc. as you are gathering more currency. I reached, and many people here confirmed, red maps and Sirus with 2-3ex budget. However, do not expect that an underleveled character with scrap gear will do the same. Last but not least, you are also missing the last lab, which is huge for survivability. Hope it helps!
