[3.25] Armoured Exsanguinate Scion - 40k armour 100% spellsupp 75/75 real block

T17 clear.
Endbosses Down, Simu down.

old:
A9 Sirus Scourge
A9 Sirus
Mavenized Shaper
8mod Enslaver Map
The Formed

Both modes are actually a lot more forgiving concerning tankiness which also enables us to switch some things around.

Sanctum:
still doable, but use my tornado build instead if you're a runner

Due to low density Awakened swift affliction always outperforms chain.

We only use exsanguinate to do Damage, no corrupting fever, as the damage increase is too low for a 4link and not needed anyway.

Supporting damage auras are: Pride, Malevolence, Herald of Purity.
This is a selfcast Build! We have about (0.4 seconds casttime => 2.5 casts per second, yes it's fast.)
Realistic dps is at 7+ mil for both trash and Bosses with Gem switch. (up to 15 mil with gg gear)

Block
This build utilizes Block with Daressos shield and without glancing blows.
Without Rumis currently sitting at 75/75% full block

get strong corrupts (dmg taken as fire, Crit reduce, life on block)

Armor

Armour is now the way to even if we have a little bit evasion. With mageblood we realistically push 60k armour, depending on flask setup up to 120k(with enduring composure and switching onslaught flask to 2nd armor flask)

Spell Suppression
we have 100% Spell Suppression.

Elemental ailments
Immunity with a combination of mageblood and stormshroud.


Elemental Defense
Thanks to the prismatic skin as well as soul of steel and new masteries we get at least 81/79/79, with fire flask we push this to 89%-90% resist for fire and tempered by war converts 50% of cold and lighting to fire (which also defends against penetration mechanics)

Life gains
We have lifeleech thanks to eater Gloves Enchant. (standard 20%) which can be pushed further with the life recovery mode of the watchers eye(23%). This is also a slayer type leech, it won't stop when you reach 55% as long there is enough space (at least 56% unreserved life)
We also have a strong life regen(about 2000+). Even with active righteous fire it still regenarates about 1200 hps
1 Life flask(charge gain + bleed immunity)
With the new life mastery (55% life is low life) and anomalous petrified blood our life pool is the same as maxlife concerning hits.
Last but not least we also have life recovery on block through one with the shield. This is primary for trash survival

Dots
aka the bane of our existence. This is why we use arakaali as our main pantheon.
We overcap resistances and try to reach 35% chaos resist. (we get a lot of resistances on tree so that should be quite easy.) You can stand in the degenfield of uber maven and wait for all the orbs to arrive without risk of dieing

Misc
anomalous petrified blood protects us from hit and keeps low life active as well as enables the slayer leech.

Stuns: - Now immunity with mageblood
We are quite hardy but sometimes stuns do come our way, so wie use one eye Jewel in belt and 2 Tattoos to minimize this. It feels enough currenty with ~60% avoid. We could also utilize a flask craft.

Pros:
Tanky and Fast Build, outside of bosses nothing will kill you.
No need for unleash/Spellslinger or Echo, des Build can substain 3 stacks of exsanguinate without problems, even with awakenend Swift Affliction.

Cheap Entrypoint for the build to work, can even be used as a league starter (see leveling section)

Cons:
Low damage - even with GG gear 15-20 mill is cap, normal version will reach ~9-10 mill with gem switch, enough, but not powerful.

Cannot do Phys reflect maps (Aztiri only with minor god and phys mastery)

While it can tank most strafe hits even from endgame bosses, Movement skills are still required when dealing with Slams. (Dodge those is the best way even if you could gamba for block or evade.)

Gem switch for Endgame Bosses(maven/shaper/uberelder/guardians etc)

Feels slow without onslaught, but mageblood and/or daresso fixes it. Otherwise use Raider Ascendancy, Bloodrage and Endurance Charge generation at bosses fixes that

Int/Dex is hard to come by sometimes.

Without good gear Damage suffers. Especially in the beginning.

All my Pobs require the Community fork!

This is maybe the max currently possible? 22m dps on bosses, ~6mill on uber pinnacle, 300k ehp max block, max supp, real 2k hps.

The gear we need that this whole Spiel works:

Daressos defiance gives us permanent onslaught even at bosses with enduring composure. This makes the selfcast dream come true. If you have Berserker Tattoo you can skip the node.

This shield makes capping block and spell block very easy. It also gives Elemental resistances and even counter the -block enchant on maps for trash. Sure a rare shield may be give more dps, but defense this thing is awesome, espically with a good double corrupt.

Rare shield with glancing blows is also an option but can get expensive fast!
(If you want dps on shield flat spelldamage >>>> Gem level at this point)

This makes sustaining our auras a piece of cake and gives us access to eldritch battery. If you don't have it, take a Helmet with Reservation mastery from eater Eater (at least grand) or Essence craft, but you will need Life tap for Trigger Setup.
As soon as you get a good rare helmet, Diadem fades out, because of Armour mastery.

watchers eye with life leech mod. As soon as you have gloves with phys leech, get a damage watchers eye. Life regen mod of malevolence is still op through.

Amulet:
The "cheapo" Ashes of stars gives us many things we need.

Purity ring with good mods:
Buff effect/phys dmg is BiS

Unnatural instinct(4?ex): This quite expensive gem gives as MS CS as well as life and dmg for 4 points, its awesome but not that important.

Crafting:

Gloves:
get Gloves base (Dragonscale is best) with life recover fractured, the more the better.
get Fossil für Life mod crafting. Try to get max life Life regen and max life

Helmet:
get helmet with life regen or chaos fracture would be best. get Exsanguinate enchant(yep also still working on that :X) use Essence craft for 10% reservation efficiency. Either spam essences until you have another decent suffix and then use eldritch currency to get two fine prefixes (Max life and Armour/Evasion). As finishing touch craft + 1 AOE gem level for better auras.

Boots:
Dragon Scale Boots with a good fracture. Life recovery would be best. we also need an open prefix as Runspeed/cannot be chilled is best. Best is fossil crafting for life regen and max life. Chaos res is also always fine. we can also use eldritch currency here.
