hi, i don't know what i'm missing but even tho i lack the 3rd curse, my dps on pob is half of what it should(?) be, can someone help me with that?

Your hexblast gem should be lvl 21 and not 19, that's 20% more dps already.

Make sure you checked 40 doom in config in pob and aare also applying it in game, that's like 120% more damage too.

I don't use in detail pob, with the same configuration, is it the combined total damage of hexblast that's relevant or is it the full dps? because in the full dps i'm good but in the combined total damage (of hexblast) that's about half of what it should be

This build was a lot of fun and a good league start, was able to do most bosses and decently juiced T16s with no issues. I think I hit about the limit of the build minus a few small upgrades like +2 gems on the chest and mirror tier scepters and some other stuff.

I think ill be selling my gear from this build and moving on but I did enjoy it a lot, this was the gear I ended with

You can easily but you will be in the entry level POB with a few extra upgrades, you can skip the level 4 enlighten (Wont be able to run spider) and awaken gems, elevated helmet, etc

I'm at the point where upgrades are harder to come by due to cost, I'm currently sitting at 12.5M Sirus dps which I'm really happy with.

While looking over the support gems, it looks like Cruelty out dps Awakened Added Chaos (level 6) by about 1 Million. I have to admit that I don't fully understands how Cruelty works, is there a reason why Cruelty is not mention in any of your PoB setups? Thanks.

PoB just assumes cruelty to be maxed at 40% more dot all the time, regardless of the base hit. You can't really run deadly ailments and cruelty at the same time.
You can see on the top left of the screen how much damage cruelty is giving you, and on boisses it won't be much.

ALso, I'm very surprised that your lowest dps support is awaken added chaos, it's usually one of the best. Was it level 5 for the +1 gem?

I mess up the quote, my reply to Darkxellmc

Actually, I was about to buy an Awakened Added Chaos to replace the Added Lightning and check in with PoB to see which gem I should upgrade first. PoB tells me that Cruelty is the most dps out of any gem, I did a little research on Cruelty but don't really understand how this gem works but I know you left it out for a reason.

I'm running it now just to test it out and t16 maps feels like white maps. My next upgrade will be



socketed in the available socket on the top right, I'm hoping that it'll give me near permanent up time on my Granite and Jade flask. I'm going to buy an Awake Added Chaos gem too so I can compare the two.

edit: I found an old post where GGG explained how Cruelty works.

Loving this build. Thanks for the guide.

I dropped a mirror and got a mageblood and had a question about the flask setup with it.

What would be the most optimal flasks for bosses? I like to run stun immunity mods on them now but I'm sure there is some flask setup that could help with downing the bosses quicker.

Any ideas?

A few remarks now that i'm pretty much done with the league. Good build guide (the trade links deserve special mention), wicked fun while clearing, more then ok for bossing, once you have the right gear. And that's the main/only gripe, gear in general is problematic at league start, most of the required uniques and cluster jewels are very expensive and that does slow down mapping (and leveling was already a bit slower too). Fun still, but considerably slower then i'm used to. If i had known that in advance i would have either leaguestarted with another build and transitioned into it, or i might have saved the build guide to use in a league where i couldn't play leaguestart weekend. Once you're passed that point and have geared up enough though, it changes drastically and becomes a lot faster and tankier.

I changed a few things, defensively and personal preference mostly.
Quite early on i took the passives to Carrion to help stay alive while mapping. Not really needed anymore now, but it's still nice to have, makes quick clearing a lot safer with dangerous map mods.
I dropped a large cluster jewel and went for three small ones with Born of Chaos to cap max chaos resist, just because i felt like it (and it helped survivability mid mapping). Might not be worth the dps loss to most, but at this point clearing is fast enough for me and i don't really like bossing anyway. Also meant i didn't need any extra chaos resist anywhere (it's far overcapped because of the boots, but those were to good not to take).
I don't like having a second movement skill on manual, so i put phase run on CwDT too, worked very well. Also put a second stone golem on manual because CwDT doesn't trigger enough to my liking and while bossing i was often running around without one.
I also went for some more immunities. Other then the elemental ailment immunity from Purity of Elements i'm also immune to bleeding, corrupted blood, maim, hinder and vulnerability.

For those interested (and for things i might have forgotten to mention) here's the PoB: https://pastebin.com/0UrvQxm2
It'll be a bit messy for the prefectionists here, but i didn't want to put time in min-maxing or crafting, so it is what it is. Got me passed Maven, so i guess it's not that bad.

Thanks for the detailed guide. I'm trying the build but i don't feel tanky at all rather a bit squishy. I'd like to hear some feedback.
