Also the delirium post is bull. I copied a large cluster into pob. Looked good, bought it. Notables were in the wrong spots.
Edit: or POB decided to be stupid as hell because I was one damn update behind. "It's all clearer now And I hear her now And I'm nearer to The Salvation Code" Editado por útlima vez por PleiadesBlackstar en 22 abr. 2020 1:14:28

Yes b/c as far as your gear goes its pretty decent, your INT should be pretty respectable and you have a very high ES chest and helm so once you get a couple INT/ES splits on your farthest away from starting nodes you should see a significant jump in your ES.
My ES is at 20,741 atm and I have 3.4k ish INT, I have 1 will shaper passive on a megalomaniac, and then all my INT/ES splits to give you an idea of the impact they have on your defenses. My watcher's eye is just ES on hit, and ES recovery, not using a clarity one. Imo Lingen's tree is the best and safest/easiset to play, it has the best blend of offense and defense. I have a 53k icestorm tooltip, instantly vaporize all the bosses including uber elder and my defenses are just absurd. I suck at this game, ive only had success on the older mjolner/discharge build and king of summoners necromancer. Im already at lv.99 and 37 challenges, if I can hit 100 on this you guys absolutely can. Just chip away at your large clusters and INT/ES splits. Its ashamed people manipulated the large cluster jewel prices the way they did, its more then easy to print money this league in sims. Buying out every cluster and relisting it for quintuple the price really ruins the experience for anyone new coming to the build. Editado por útlima vez por JCOH35 en 22 abr. 2020 2:28:28

" Hey man, how do u manage to make money in sims? I've only ran like 4 times but nothing good seems to drop for me? Or am i missing something XD cheers Ign: Zanosaur

" Law of the small numbers. You should run much more than four. If you do not find something after 100 Simulacrums you are either doing something wrong or you are having a very bad RNG run. Time and time again I witness the birth of a new born star.
I climb the highest mountain to find the essence of a new era. |

Yeah, i recently only ran simulacrums from 98-99 and the random drops pretty much paid for all of the simulacrum cost. I just sold my scarab tab for 12ex with nearly all of them from about the same cost in simulacrums.
I also got a 5 passive voices after 20 or so sims which made me a lot of money. You will break even/slightly make money running them without big drops. And if you get a big drop while getting solid exp for free that's a plus. At least that's how i look at it. About to do the same thing for 99-100.

Hi Kelvynn! Figured I would try a post here intead of PM so maybe others could get some help too! Just checking in to let you know i'm back to this build on Standard. Delirium is lagging my laptop too hard, and it's not fun to play right now. I like how you've updated the guide- Very good work and thanks a lot. So, with going back to this bread and butter build here that gets the job done, I have a few questions. The Stampede boots, how highly are they recommended? How highly is the inspiration gem recommended- because right now i'm running awakened cold pen. Steelskin instead of immortal call right? Because they changed I.C.? I didn't think people were using immortal call anymore from what i've heard. And last but not least, can fortify be incorporated into this build? I would really love to be a little tankier with it, even if i had to lose a little DPS. Not sure how to post a picture of my gear here, but I also have a +2 to level of curse gems helmet I was wondering if it would be good or help, since we're running 2 curses. One is memory vault and one is doedre's scorn.
Thanks in advance, -Rex |

It's pretty crazy how much the large cluster jewels fluctuate with price manipulation. When i first needed to get more larges they where at like 10-15ex each so i just chaos spammed my own.
I ended up making 3 Cold to the core/prismatic heart/widespread destruction/2 jewel sockets in 15 exalts worth of chaos spamming myself. I may have just been very lucky though hard to say. The price isn't quite as bad as that now. |

" You can do most content with lower than 10K ES but then you have to manually avoid more deadly boss attacks & in general avoid most stuff. If you need to be able to tank some of these deadly hits you need to invest into more ES or add mitigations such as Fortify Support linked to Cyclone or add the Overlord notable. Enduring Focus, Flesh and Stone, Wise Oak/Basalt Flask/Taste of Hate also add mitigation. Personally I don't use The Stampede so its a matter of QoL. The only things that can stop Cyclone: * Mana (check mana reservation, tweak with mana cost enchants/et.c, make sure arcane surge is always active for mana regen) * Maps with mod "Players cannot regenerate life/mana/energ shield" and no "Enduring" Mana flask equipped * Baran influenced maps Mana/DoT debuff squares (assign move only hotkey) * Cursed with silence (use Hex Breaker or "of Warding" flask) * You use Predictive networking mode and get desynced as stuck on something serverside (however you actually keep spinning clientside but this can be combined with any of the above) * You use another non-instant skill that cancels cyclone We are stun immune due to Occultist Ascendancy, but also while channeling Cyclone, we're immune to all stun and knockback. |
