[3.10] Death's Oath CI Occultist (RETIRED)

Sorry for the beginner questions:

Get a white wand of high enough ilvl to get T1 Non-Ailment Chaos Damage over time multi. Ideally you should also find one with a spell damage implicit that goes upto 42%.

So i get a Wand with 42% spell damage on it. And i craft with the craft bench Non Ailment Chaos over Time on it.

Then i put ALts on it to get Chaos damage (it is blue now) then i throw a regal on it?

Thank you so much :-) I really love this build. Makes fun :)

No, no you get a white opal wand (opal wands have 38-42% spell damage implicit).

You don't craft non chaos on it, you try and get it with alterations (34-38%). No crafting bench. After you get that roll, then you regal.

Thank you for your patience. When i put a Regal on it new stats will be on the Wand ... Hmm

Sorry if the answer is obvious and I just cant see it, but I dont quite understand why you add a less duration gem to the chest, I understand the arcane surge to give it the right tags for the other gems but I dont understand how less duration increases damage.

Less duration adds damage after you add the duration tag.

Hire here i was wondering does ''Controled Destruction'' work with death's oath ?
I don't think it does but I've seen build with it ?
and if it does work why put less duration instead of controlled destruction ?

Controlled Destruction only works with Spell Damage ... Death's Oath is an aura. Trust me, the 6 gems he has are the ONLY possible gems that work with this setup.

Honestly this build seems so nerfed now ... I have way less ES than I did in 3.6 and previous.

Yeah used a machete on occultist in 3.7 + Global ES nerfs. That's why a lot of people are switching to life based DO.

Hello,
Just chiming in to show a somewhat pumped variation of this build, used this guide and another to make it.

I use a timeless jewel (simulated in the pob), which gives a huge dps boost.
Also switched temp chains for enfeeble, using Impres despair instead of Solstice. (With +1 curse to gain points on tree)

It struggles a bit against bosses (200k shaper dps with the aura,about the same from blight CwC Soulrend), but it clears pretty well and it's one of the most relaxing build I've ever played.

I manage to reach 8k ES with a Clarity Watcher's Eye but I don't invest heavily on ES on tree,you could go higher.

Enjoy
