Could somebody look at my build for me if you have a second. I am going off donbrawlers build as a guide and for the life of me I cant see how they have 75% attack/spell block. I am at 64/72 and cant figure out why.
No doubt I am overloooking something obvious but cant spot what it is

I did look for +1/+2 but there was only 3 availalbe and not with the socket colours I wanted

Don't let colours put you off in future. You can usually recolour using the craft bench so long as you have vaal orbs equal to the cost of the chromes. Usually its just a case of picking 'at least 1 red and 1 green socket' and trying a few times.

With regards your build, Don has a divergent tempest shield gem which gives extra spell block (currently around 10ex).

And he has a watchers eye mod to give attack block while affected by determination. You can check back for his post, he was going to instead get a corrupted shield with extra spell block, so that could be an alternative. believe you need +5% corruption (with +2 aoe if your rich enough!)

You could definitely look into more alternate quality gems and some lvl 21 ones too, would give you nice boosts. Awakened swift affliction = a good boost.

Most of Don's power came from cluster jewels and their mods too.

After using skin of the lords for a while I completely forgot you could actually change socket colours on corrupted gear with bench crafting
!

Ah nice I overlooked divergent tempest shield and watchers eye mods. Will see what gems I can get and maybe a new watchers eye

The cheaper alternative is get the block wheel to the right of glancing blow. It’s easy to cap block with that and just a bit more of spell block on tree, with glancing blow of course. You get quite a bit of res as bonus too. If you follow Don’s thread of hope setup you can’t do it but if you take glancing blow like normal people do then it’s just 3 points.

I would lose a bunch of dps going that route. Grabbed the block stuff near zealots oath as that capped me and was less of a dps loss

That’s spell block right? I though you pack attack block. Spell block is easier to cap.

Kano is correct I capped my attack block with watchers eye mod and if you're using Ashes of stars amulet. 20/20 Divergent Tempest Shield gets you to 73-74%. I have Mage Hunter notable on a megalomaniac cluster to reach 75% spell block without investing into any block on tree.

Totally noob question here...

Can a corrupted level 1 Enlighten Support gem be leveled up to level 4, or is the max at level 3?

The price for a level 4 is astounding in league compared to standard. I guess it's one of the rare occasions whereby something costs more in league.
