How the build works
Build Mechanics
Expedition items have Ward Ward will absorb the damage done to you If you have 1500 ward, and a monster hits you for 2000, only 500 damage will go to life and your ward will disappear, it breaks Ward will be recharged after 5 seconds Olroth's flask When this flask is on, your ward will not break/disappear The goal is to permanently have Olroth's flask on If Ward is always on, then ward will absorb the damage Permanent Olroth's flask effect So we want to have Olroth's permanently on, to do this we use Brutal Restraint The Traitor https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/The_Traitor_(keystone_passive) Using the traitor keystone and 2 cluster jewels which give us high flask duration, we can get permanent Olroth's effect The traitor keystone works when you have 3 empty flask slots, means you can only use 2 flasks.
High budget 100ex
you can use 3 flasks at high budget, this is explained in upgrades section
Heartbound loop ring explained You summon skeletons, and when skeleton die, the ring will do damage to you Since you are damaged, CWDT will cast spells linked to it The damage each skeleton does is 420, its less than 1500 ward. So you take no damage. If you have 300 ward then you will take 120 damage to life. CWDT gem needs to be level 20 to cast level 20 spell gems For CWDT level 21, you should take about 3580 damage to cast spells We use 3 skeletons and forbidden rite gem to reach self 3580 damage Forbidden rite is a skill that will deal damage to yourself If you cast forbidden rite, it will deal a lot of damage to your life https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Forbidden_Rite As long as your ward is more than the Forbidden rite self damage, you will take no damage to life How to Level up

Required level This build will work from level 80, you just need 1700 life minimum. And also allocate all necessary staff nodes. You can make it work below that, but its not worth the hassle. Also complete all the labs and get pathfinder and elementalist. 420 heartbound loop ring requires 1700 life 350 heartbound loop ring needs 2400 life    Ascendancy

If you are under very tight budget use Voices and blessed rebirth, Otherwise buy a normal cold damage cluster and use Anomalous Summon skeleton. See Upgrades section for this info! Again I will repeat, See Upgrades Section 1 before you commit to Voices. In 3.18 Anomalous Summon Skeleton is cheap. It should not be corrupted. 5p Voices https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Archnemesis/aVklGj7Ce Blessed rebirth Minion jewel https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Archnemesis/qb2VMEvTg Flask clusters Option 1 - Buyout, correct option for no risk gamers You can just buy them from trade Trade buyout url https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Archnemesis/Ebo63ZyC5 Option 2 - Craft Buy the base and simply use Chaos orb spam till you get Fasting + 25 effect or Fasting + distilled perfection Base url https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Archnemesis/LL0pGyVtn Rings

Rare Ring
Its time to remove one heartbound loop and use a rare ring Examples, they are missing life, so they are quite Ok, not great What and why and how
Spoiler
For this upgrade, there are 2 - ways
Increase life to 3626, or Use Divergent Cast When Damage Taken Assuming you have a 420 heartbound ring, and level 11 Skeleton Lets find out how much life required Level 21 CWDT requires 3580 Heartbound 420 does 1260, its 3 skeleton X 420 3580 - 1260 = 2,320 2320 / 0.4 / 1.6 = 3,625 2320 should come from Forbidden rite. 0.4 is Forbidden rite damage, see the gem text 1.6 is -60 chaos resistance So you need at least 3625 life. Forbidden rite should deal 2320 damage to reach 3580 for CWDT 21 The problem with this is, when you ward is 1800 or even 1900, around 300 damage will go to your life pool. And this is really bad for sustain and makes you squishy. Buy Divergent cast when damage taken Weapon 20/20 Body armor 19/20 for Skin of the Lords You need 2510 life for Heartbound 420 You need 2840 life for Heartbound 350 https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Archnemesis/j8wgOQrCX https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Archnemesis/MDl2M0RFJ You can make this yourself by corrupting If you lose quality, don't worry, you just need to increase your life pool. Keep increasing your life pool till skills get cast. Get 3020 life for 420, the worst quality level 11 Get 3400 life for 350 Upgrade - 4 - Empower 4 and gems
Spoiler
Just buy Empower 4 support Ice spear 21, creeping frost 21 Weapon keep 20/20, its easier, because divergent CWDT 21 is 50 ex ore more Upgrade - Omniscience Amulet
Spoiler
Crystallised Omniscience With the amulet updated, you need to change your helm and gloves to have attributes instead of resistances Omni Helmet Craft Dex on it in the suffix https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Archnemesis/zv9Zkmvc4 Omni gloves dex/int Crafted Int on it in suffix https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Archnemesis/Ebojgz4u5 Helm Enchant
Spoiler
Best Ice Spear fires an additional Projectile Second Righteous Fire grants 30% increased Spell Damage Awakened GMP
Spoiler
This is a lot of damage, buy this if you can 27% cdr
27CDR
We are now in uncharted territory, this can get complicated from here Do all the above upgrades before doing this. Especially the divergent cast when damage taken upgrade. I am not a fan of Level 21 summon skeleton, the reason is, its complicated, because of trigger order, it gets messy. And you will run out of Mana issue with 27% cdr and this causes a lot of frustration Yes you need mana to cast the skills, mana is used when CWDT casts the skill. Make sure you have 6% Mana Recoup on the Ring as well!!! Else mana issue. Get a belt from here https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Archnemesis/KBWaRmPc5 Get some CDR on boots Also get CDR on abyss jewel Total must be 27 or more. To Dust Update To Dust for 20/20/18 Total 58 20+20+18 = 58 20+19+19 = 58 Gems in helm now become Skeleton + Minion speed + Less Duration 4/20 + CWDT 5 Forbidden Rite goes to gloves 420 heartbound ring Forbidden Rite level 1 + CWDT level 9 + sniper mark 12 350 heartbound ring Forbidden rite level 1 + CWDT Level 7 + sniper mark 10 You also need to downgrade sniper's mark in gloves To level 10 or level 12 The Annihilating staff
Spoiler
If you still aren't using this one, then get this weapon With omni, get a good stat ring if you are not using omni, get a rare ring with lots of resistances Get perfect resistances on helm, gloves, boots With Omni 55 int on hlem, craft 30 dex 55 dex on gloves, craft 30 int Then use the staff. There is no other way. You need to buy Unnatural instinct as well.

I keep dying from time to time from a damage over time, is corrupted blood dangerous for this build? ignite? I don't know, health just goes down slowly till i die. I'm level 80 atm so just enough to start, i took all staff nodes except counterweight that is only dps i think, will be my next point. Am i missing something? Character is FreeTheKraken if you can check it

looks like that purity of elements instead of hatred is more safe, i don't die anymore, i also bought a corrupted blood immunity abyss jewel, now it's all a matter of passive points :)

Hi!.. thx for share this build, it look funny
One question, in your pob, CF and IS have cast rate 4.33... I currently have 1.5, i dont know how increased it :/ pd: sometimes dying when swap weapons, i dont know why -.- Última edição por IverzonX em 24 de abr de 2022 22:56:30
|

" The cast rate is probably due to gmp support, i have almost the same gear as him, and i have your same cast speed. there's no other explanation about dying, be sure that BEFORE weapon swapping when entering a zone you first of all move, to remove the immunity debuff (when you change zone until you stand still you can't be seen/damaged, it's to protect yourself), then wait like 3 seconds while moving a bit that the 2 flask buffs appear on top of your screen, near your auras. when they appear you can press x 2 times and start the rotation. that's something he had to explain better, but whatever |

" oh i get it lol ty for reply bro |
|

Hello,
I will try this build. ty. I have one question " I bought 2-3-1 which gems should I put in slots? |
|
|
This is like a scion version of cwdt ward but on a weird class o.0
Corrupting blood will kill you with this build in most high tier maps You can do reduced flask charge mod as long as you only use 2 flasks (elemental version?) You can do reduced CDR if you remove less duration gem (elemental version?) If you dont run purity of elements i think a lot of random things will make you kill yourself (standing on shocking ground etc) The staff this build is using is way worse then the triple damage staff (but way easier to cap res ;p) Adding on to this from my exp with the elemental version: This build will die and is not immortal This build can do wave 30 simu but not most of the time (ive done it like 6 times out of 300 trys) This build can do 100% t16 dels but you will likely die a couple of times (may just be if your running beyond tho...) To get this build close to being *done* its WAY more then 20ex... unless everything is dirt cheap this league Última edição por Lynerus em 8 de mai de 2022 18:17:34
|
|
" You can put increased crit damage Will update this guide for 3.18 after Draught bringer is nerfed. Yes corrupted blood is bad, it will kill you Occultist is very tank and a good class for this build. Annihilating staff is high budget, because its hard to cap resistances with just 20 ex And yeah this build can be done with 20ex late stage 3.17 Its going to be expensive in 3.18 |
