Concerning phys reflect, I run them all the time with zero issue. Am I missing something?

To be honest I just re roll reflect maps. With winter spirit, the amount of physical damage the build outputs is very small. So it's possible but I don't want players to die intermittently from generalized advice.

Subbing in phys2light will also basically grant immunity to phys reflect.

Fair enough, thanks.

I just ran a phys reflect and indeed it does not do barely any damage on LA since most of it is converted via LA+spirit of winter but it will still kill you on barrage without p2l.

Ah ok. Didn't consider barrage. I'll pay closer attention next time I run some phys reflects. That may be responsible for some odd deaths I've experienced.

Side note: I was able to finally run some tombfists and still be res capped and now the build just feels full on beastmode.

Good to hear you're enjoying the build. Many players rush into tombfist too fast without optimizing the rest of their gear first.
You could even attempt to fit in bubonic trail in there too but the stress on attributes/resists would be very hard to manage.

Ty for nice build, did shaper for my very first time and did all atlas (w/o hogm), now going to farm lvl a bit and try u-atziri. But im a bit clueless what i need to improve next (despite +1 barrage chant). My profile is public, can you take a look if possible and give some sort of direction or advice? Current budget is about 10-15 ex.

You followed the itemization guide very well. I do not see any glaring weaknesses.

Some suggestions:
-Unspec out of acuity for winter spirit, 5% more net dps.
-You can unspec out of the life leech node, bloodrinker already caps you.
-You have 44 excess fire resists and 34 excess lightning resists which you can re allocate into good suffixes.
-You should get 16-20% reduced flask charges used on abyssal belt. This will let you triple chug chemist diamond flasks and any quicksilver. Your belt's fire resist could be replaced with this affix.
-You should get one jewel with blind on hit, this will provides a huge defensive layer vs attackers.
-A barrage enchant with 40% damage will still be a decently dps gain - 7.8 %. You don't really need that +1 barrage projectile which provides 16.7% unless there is nothing left to upgrade.
-You can bless some of your gear for higher implicit values.

PoB reports a dps of 2.1 million which is more than enough to do any content in the game handily.

Im totalling 3m DPS (effective shaper deeps WITHOUT +1 Barrage). Currently lvl 91 with all content cleared, i will level to 95 and take Quickstep and Fangs of the Frost keystones to finish off the build.

Now about the guide. Fucking loved it, short but powerful. I had to really look around to find a suitable build for me and i then was directed to this one by a friend. It is beyond me why this isnt in the featured build list. A+ guide (little more theory to read would be very nice for newer players).

PS. What glove enchant do you think is best/do you like the most? None of them really convince me. But since im using tombfist, it would be a waste not to get one.

Thanks one more time for build and for your helpful reply!

I found that the more I wrote, the less people would be likely to read important parts so I trimmed by guide to be as concise as possible to remove the chance of people asking very basic questions I clearly stated in the main post. Is there a specific section you'd want a detailed explanation for?


I like <decree> of war because it will help kill stragglers so you dont waste attack time and is especially good vs breaches and abysses. combined with mirage archer and dying sun youll have a little army of auto attacking minions. You can see the enchant in action in most my vids.

<decree> or fury is also fantastic but tends to come out a little slow compared to your initial LA volley.

Of course neither of these are as impactful as your boot enchant - 8-10% elemental penetration is great for belly and 1-160 lightning damage is great for shroud variants.
