Hey Y'all,

Been working on this build, and after getting my RRRRGB Cospri's Will (so much luck... i almost died),
I am starting to think of ways to further optimize it.

You can see my current gear on my character "Agent_o_Bleed". My gloves are meh. The boots could have more armour/evasion, but whatever. My main question is whether it is more powerful to have 6L AW in cospri's or swap EQ to Cospri's and use Disfavour for further enhanced curses.

I could do Blasphemy-Enlighten-Enhance-Empower-Vulnerability-Temporal Chains. Or i could add in Arctic Armour, or Herald of Ash, instead of Empower (leaning more towards AA, survivability is alwasy good) and run EQ on Blood Magic, and Fortify on Leap Slam instead of EQ.

Fortify's damage boost isn't stellar, but it'd still be a loss. Not sure if running more auras is worth that, so i am thinking i'll add Empower in to aura set up? I can't claim to be very good with mechanics. Honestly this last 3 weeks (i started really late) of legacy are the best i've ever done currency building, and seeing a build come to fruition wise, so this min maxing aspect is new. Any ideas would be most welcome.

Thanks in advance

p.s. Vorici jewelers technique for the win. Spent roughly 130c to buy the cospri, and 5 off it. Friggin' incredible. If i wanted to sell that's like 7-8 ex profit with my lucky (78 fusing) 6L...

p.p.s. I know.... I need the 30% reduced EQ duration on my helm. But i STILLLL haven't found the final trial i ned to start farming uber. Though i am pretty confident uber lab will be easily farmable with my current set up. I'm certainly not able to pay 8 ex for a pre-enchanted Devoto's either.

Personally I don't think that curse setup in disfavour is ever worth dropping links in your AW, Its WAY toomuch damage you're loosing out on, also curses fall off fast on end game bosses where 2 extra links won't.

With Fortify, there are so few gems that benefit earthquake and fortify gives you a nice little boost to damage, obviously no more multiplier but then add permanent fortify, It's easily worth it in the 6link in my opinion because you can easily sustain EQ on mana so BM would be a useless slot.

Edit: Checked your character, Honestly I'd quality the rest of your EQ/AW Gems you're missing a good amount of damage there. Also your enhance is only level 2, thats 16% you're missing on your curses which is pretty significant. Also you're missing about 30-40% More multipliers on your jewels which is HUGE. Try and get 3 Stat jewels with Life/Inc Damage/Area damage (Thats the mod 8-10% Increased damage) Those two damage mods are the only thing that double dip on both bleed and poison.

Also IR Reduces your survivability by a lot. I'd take 30-40% chance to evade over hits that do sub 2-3k being reduced a tiny bit.

With my EQ 5-linked, is it worth going Rapid Decay support without the helm enchant, or should I just grab like inc. fire damage or something?

Also, realistically, how many jeweller's will it take to get a proper 5-link off color cospris?

Could anyone look on my EQ Slayer on SSF? I got over 5k life, capped resists, EQ unbuffed dps in HO is around 10k, ascendancies are: Bane of Legends, Headsman, Endless Hunger (2 more trails for uber lab).

I'm currently doing mostly T8-T9 maps but in certain situations I just cant leech hp enough to survive in huge fights (breaches and few bosses are constant spam of HP flasks).

My current setup is
1. EQ + Melee + Duration + AoE/CoC + Poison
2. AW + FA + Melee + Added Fire
3. Hatred + Herald of Ash
4. CWDT + Temp Chains + Vuln (Doedre's Ring for double curse)
5. Blood rage + Enduring Cry
6. Leap Slam + FA + Fortify + Endurance Charge on Stun

I know its a bit improvise setup, but like I said, SSF.

Just yesterday I found Hezmana Bloodlust, too bad my old axe is actually a bit more dps and I can still exalt it for more dmg. Thought Ill go 3auras then (arctic armour for example), but then I cant cast enduring cry and blood rage which is huge for my dps.

Anyways, could someone help me find next piece of my gear I should try to upgrade? What should I prioritize? Maybe something in my tree is wrong? Maybe my selfmade gem setup is wrong? I thought about doing standard CWDT + IC and just putting curses on CoH, but my enhance gem is rly low... Maybe going 2 curses now is bad idea? I dont really know what to do now.

My character name is MaximusGladiator if u could take a look on my profile for tree

and backup axe I think Ill exalt after I get lvl 7 vagan to remove crafted adds phys and block some shiity affix

I seem to be hitting a bit of a brick wall with this build now. Just started doing T11s and I'm dying multiple times each map. Would 5-linking my cospris really help that much or do I need to be doing something to increase my defensiveness? Could also just be playing the build itself wrong, idk.

Here's my gear. Currently have 80c, and about 200c total in other currencies. Thanks for any help, really appreciate it!
