Hi i just made that build and is solid, but i got question.
How do you sustain mana in simu? I start facing issue when i reach 21/22 wave and there start problem with mana.
can you give me some thoughts on how to move forward? I feel like I need more damage. I failed at sim 20 and normal maven (as my mechanics aren't too good but I wasn't chunking fast enough). Other normal bosses seem fine at the moment but I feel kind of bursty at times instead of consistent?

thanks for the build.
Sorry for asking but is Split Personality still obtainable in 3.20?

The simplest way to solve this build's mana issues, in my opinion, is picking up a jewel with Leech mana from physical damage. Search for jewels with mana leech and a couple of other good mods from OPs "good mods" list (under the Lethal Pride section) and you should be good.

OP solves the issue by using a cluster jewel with Fuel the Fight(https://pathofexile.fandom.com/wiki/Fuel_the_Fight), which gives a considerable damage boost plus mana leech, but I can't find a cluster jewel like his for under 200 divines on standard right now, so a standard non-cluster jewel does the trick for me.
