Anyone has tips how i can improve my build?

Primarily i do die once every map from T11, so no more progress / leveling possible, 5800 life, capped res.

Alternatively :

any suggestion of a more stable character which can handle T11+ with having 3ex available?

This build seems to hit a wall at this point.

I can't speak for another build but your current build has so much room to grow.

You don't have fully leveled gems
You don't have quality on all your gems
You don't have your important amulet anointment
You don't have quality on all your flasks
You don't have quality on any of your gear
You don't have the self cast wand
You don't have the helmet needed for the 3rd specter
You don't have the important AG setup with Kingmaker
You don't have lab enchants on boots or gloves


You can drop down a couple of tiers, farm and improve this character quite a bit and then move up again if you want when you maybe start to min max (note, only Kingmaker is really part of min maxing, everything else I listed above you should be shooting as part of normal end game).

which reflect maps cant we do with the build? elemental or physical reflect?

The cold version (this build guide) should skip elemental reflect.

Some are running the phy version and they should skip physical reflect.

Many may already know this but for those that don't, the recent improvements to Delirium are excellent across the board.

Delirium went from arguably the worst league from a risk/reward aspect, to now an upper tier one.

If you are looking to farm cash, drop down a few tiers, find a straight map like Beach/Strand etc, and farm the hell out of it. The loot drop consistency and quality now make it worthwhile.

Does any one have a good feel on how useful Renewal is? I know it is a massive DPS boost in POB but I was unsure just how consistently the AW's are on full life.

My character is done ty for the great guide.

solid item build there. Btw, what's the mechanic behind Avatar of Fire ?

For Ele Equi. I could switch to a jewel but for now i take Avatar of Fire.

Hello Gundo. Nice build! im playing on xbox and have a few questions.
due to the botton restrictions i have to modife it a bit. maninly im trying by automizing most things.

1. i got a frost bite curse in a ring. do the animated weapon curse them selves or do i have to do it with bladefall?

2. Same with the Equilibrium? is it enough i have some added fire/lightning dmg some were in the build?

if not: is it possible to just add minion deal fire/lightning dmg in a ghastly jewel ?

3. and finally. i dont understand what the avatar of fire has for function in a cold build.

I don't want to be the guy that says "get gud" but this is probably the tankiest build I've ever played. You could look at my gear and tree if you want.

from the wiki

In most situations, Avatar of Fire will not synergize with Elemental Equilibrium, since Elemental Equilibrium will add fire resistance to the enemy, while the player is unable to utilize the cold and lightning weakness. One notable use case is when the player summons minions that primarily deal cold and lightning damage. Since minions do not inherit Elemental Equilibrium, the player's fire damage will permanently weaken the enemy to cold and lightning.

In our setup the AW's do not curse themselves.

There are three general ways you can apply a curse in our build

1) Self cast it

2) Corrupt gloves for the AG and let him cast it

3) Get a specter that casts your curse of choice for you
