Spoiler

Well I wish I would have waited on that shaper guardian invitation I mentioned in an earlier post. I got wrecked by it and it was super discouraging. What I ended up doing was something I've never done with a build before and truly push it's potential with more expensive min/max upgrades. I usually bail on builds when it feels like I need to spend upwards of 5ex on a single item to feel an upgrade but this build is so fun to play I went ahead.

picked up almost all alternant gems for my main 6 link setup(except infernal blow because people be crazy with the price) and my damage kinda took off.

I also gave the elemental cluster jewel setup a shot with disorienting display. While I didn't properly compare the DPS difference I will say the DPS feels no better or worse but the survivability feels quite a bit better. That blind is great. The POB showed an intuitive leap used to pick up mana reserve nodes but I dont see the need for it so I used that jewel socket for a corrupted blood jewel. Raider is a surprisingly tanky spec and I never thought I could play a sub 5k hp build and have this much success. This is where I currently stand with gear.I went with devoto's helm for the chaos res and I made sure my cluster jewel also gave chaos res. I'm still negative but every bit helps as it's the most dangerous damage type to this build

I don't think the Devoto's is worth it for bossing, most of the time, you lose so much damage it is hard to warrant outside of Heist, lab or blasting maps. It's a really large dps drop. You're also not running a 3rd aura via Aspect / Herald of Purity. That's the primary reason why we take the reserve nodes as it is necessary to fit in the build. The rest of your gear is great! I would also look to getting your boot enchant since there is only 12ish in the game and the Penetration is free. The reason why you saw such a huge jump in DPS, is because Awakened Gems for us are insane sources of % increased damage. Throughout the build we scale the flat portions of damage to crazy extents that it is easy to disregard the fact that we don't have many sources of increased damage from the tree. It's the idea I talked about in my stream ALOT that stat stacking builds typically get the most out of "tiny" increments and min maxing sees the highest potential.

I also added a Curse Effect Medium Cluster Jewel to the Build guide after testing and my primary source of blind throughout mapping, paired with a 5% blind chance on hit from BR I almost have 100% uptime on blinds for all content. Not to mention we also get Culling strike and 5% more damage through enemies taking 5% more damage.

As always thank you for the feedback! Glad to hear you enjoying the build. If you ever want to stop by I stream very frequently at https://twitch.tv/and_Dang.

Played Hollow Palm Ice crash back in Harvest and it was so much fun. I think, i ll give the IB version a try.

Do u think, goin Bottle Faith is worth it in this built?

And u mentioned, to use ele focus in your guide. In Pob your using melee phys instead. What is the best option here?

Not OP but I can provide my opinions -

Bottled Faith: It's mediocre. Unarmed has 0% base crit chance, so you really need several sources of base crit before it starts generating any DPS beyond the 10% increased damage taken. Even with a few sources in my PoB tests it was still inferior to our other flask options, and is A LOT more expensive. Another downside is that the consecrated ground does not move with you, and as a speedy speedy build that means it's often completely useless

Ele Focus vs Melee Phys: For non-awakened gem, ele focus is better. Ele Focus scales the explosion where Melee Phys does not. However once you're in endgame and min-maxing, scaling the explosion is no longer necessary since you're one-shotting packs anyways. At that point it's more important to improve boss damage, and Awakened Melee Phys is the better choice for that since it provides Intimidate. Ideally you have a white socket to swap back and forth with, as ele focus could still arguably be better for doing 100% delirium maps. I've just made the switch to awakened melee phys myself :)
