40/40 and level 100. Build is good. While farming blue altars from 99 to 100, getting a Divine Shrine didn't make me appreciably tankier.

It's a lot more expensive than last league due to Aegis Aurora and Ashes of the Stars prices, but only the former is necessary. The cost of Phantasmal Unearth also made it mildly painful early on.

For anyone who cares: 2.9m million /kills, 45m peak DPS, non-vaal DD 30m DPS. 89 max resist, 120k armour, 6.6k HP pool, +126% ms, plus all the normal stuff that comes with the build. Obviously a lot invested to reach that stage - mageblood etc.

Improvements

Anyone looking for improvements on what I've done should consider getting increased effect of non-curse auras on the body, it's going to be dozens of exalts with recombinators and the other mods, but it will let you hit 90% max resists, amongst other goodies. I suggest delve life + elevated explosion prefixes, plus t1 chaos + elevated aura suffixes as your target, you can get 50% recombination rate if you duplicate a (desired) prefix and suffix for the combinator.

I wanted to get corpse level 96, but if you get empower 5, you can drop the +1 on the wand, and recombinator a 10% better DPS wand (26% dot prefix, 38% fire dot prefix, plus 10% of fire as chaos suffix for the recombinator, then multimod crafted dot suffix + fire damage). Would also cost dozens of exalts, but less than chest as the base is cheaper than double-elevated crusader/redeemer.

I couldn't find a good way to fit in voices, or a second impossible escape. I didn't realise until I tried it, but impossible escape can't be socketed in a cluster jewel, so it really limits our options there. Seems to me that there must be a good way though. Second megalomaniac also maybe something we could fit in.

Enlighten 5 & perfect Ashes would let me drop another reservation efficiency passive, which could perhaps go with a life node to reach Doryani's Lesson or Disorienting Display. And there are loads of tiny things that would help, so the character ended up far from perfect (I didn't even bother getting a boot enchant, despite crit chance being great for Elemental Overload).

I imagine that all this would get you safely over 50m peak DPS, 90 all resists, and perhaps 150k armour. I just stopped because doing the atlas grinds was very, very, boring.

Gear:

I crafted all the rares except the cluster jewels, mostly with recombinators, so if anyone wants the steps for something, just ask.

Edit: hahahahahahahaha

I feel like I'm now being tested by teacher, but hopefully not done anything too stupid in config...

Slowly working my way up the levels here and feeling relatively unkillable now with Enduring Composure (finally) and by sacrificing ~15% DPS for +30% eHP and some reservation so when I finally get Ashes (which, let's be real, will probably happen in standard at this rate) I can fit another aura in there.

Anyway, what would you guys do with the last prefix on this sceptre?

+1 all spells or +1 phys spells for the last prefix. Specifically to boost Unearth level. +1 all spells is better ofc because it boosts all your auras as well.

that said....without an open suffix to block attack mods I don't know how I would go about getting a +1 onto that. xD

What I'm hearing here is "close eyes and slam"

I'm struggling with how to progress further. I've killed shaper, though I died 5 times doing so. I'm fairly squishy against burst damage. I specifically didn't want to go ES this league. Anyone have any tips? My thought was Primal Aegis + phys=>Ele will give my poor 4.7k buffer more to work with. I'm trying to push DPS harder than survivability, but I also can't get POB to give me accurate readings on my DPS. I have achieved level 30 unearth through my staff though.

Any thoughts on how to improve this? Rumis is always active while clearing, so I have 75% block chance for attacks, spell block is kind of weak but whatever, mostly what kills me is physical burst and crits anyway.
