Firstly, I'm pleased I stuck with this as I wasn't having alot of fun early on. Found it a really difficult league start. Now, I am having alot of fun. Cleared the feared and uber elder deathless, done all content other than uber bosses which doesn't really interest me. Sat on about 30 divine and wondering if it's worth trying to upgrade more bits. Finding some of the items to plug holes are really difficult to get, ele avoidance implicit on rings for example. Also wondering whether I chose the right ascendancy in guardian. Seems alot of people play the build as other ascendancies to this one. Can you see anything I could change or target to keep the grind going some more?

Thank you Matta! Arachnophilia!

Yes, around the CI-transformation and getting the clusterslots, auras, hoa and and CI the build is not easy and a bit slow improved. Only with the know-how of defensive layers and the cheap clusters it`s much cheaper to scale up as most other skills.

All ups and downs are ranked in the spoiler "Which ascendany?".
Guardian is great for blockings, but trickster and necro have other more effective advantages in these times overall.

Use only 1x ward flask, the unbroken circle. Switch out the second, voranas. You can only benefit from 1x the same type of flasks. Use instead a quartz-flask (or a taste of hate).

You have high overcapped spellblock. Switch out the large spellblock-cluster to a large chaos-cluster (unspeakable gifts and overwhelming malice, in maps it stacks awesome with the asenath's gloves) in maps or to a voices.
Later switch out the minion-damage large cluster to a voices too, it`s only in lower levels effective.

You are almost bleed-immune, get an anti-bleeding tattoo and you are 100% immune.

You need 100% spell suppression. Use the "lucky roll" in the suppression-mastery until you reached 100% with instinct on the tree, magebane on sol and elegant form on clusters.

100% elemental ailment-avoidances are recommended, yes. There are often the fitting rings available for cheap 1 div this league and you can stack the immunities before on the jewels, flasks and pantheon easy too.

Divine shield and magebane are more valuable as Zealot's Oath on SoL. Path Zealot's Oath with 2 passives on the tree and get another skin of the lords when you get it cheap, 5-10 div.

For around 10-15 div you get a better watcher`s eye with es on hit and spell suppression.

More...

In these league-days 15 div are great to use the Adorned and 3 div for the needed blue magic corrupted abyss-jewels set-up. A bit tricky to build in again, but you get a free belt-slot for gravens secret belt or stygian vise when you want to use melding of the flesh.

Or often around 35 div you get the ashes of the stars, around 25% quality, with the great implicit "You can apply an additional curse" in these days.

About the clearspeed of Herald of Agony: I added another video showing the build with asenath's gentle touch & unspeakable gifts. It can farm easy 5-ways, ravage blight and chayula-breaches.

Yes, for t-17 100% spell suppression and some added maximal-resis or better taste of hate with some +max cold resis are recommended. You travelled the western tree and miss both spell suppression and spell block. Follow closer the recommended "final"-passive-tree, it`s the far most optimized, cheap and tanky one.

Switch also the ascendancies-passives unwavering crusade to radiant faith, the elemental relic does not support good HoA-chaos-scaling.

Take temporal chains instead sniper's mark and the flask set-up miss bleeding-avoidances.

Hi, Chromino
I am getting one-shotted verry often, even in T14 maps.
It feels like i am not procing my Cast when Stunned lately, should i change It for Cast when Damage taken.
I use Clarity to fix my Mana Sustain and it works really well. I could barely Sustain with just 60 Mana/s.
Could you help me please, this is my First time actually playing past the Mainstory and I am basically fulltime watching and reading Guides.

Hi marcel,

probably the oneshots are from missing bleeding-avoidances and spell suppression or from too much dangerous map-mods mounted up. Bets is to check step by step the "checklist defences" for all layers of defences.

For defences you need some more resis and spell suppression with "inveterate" and a small cluster "elegant form" or on a unique magamaniac medium cluster with pure agony. Use before a quart-flask and the "lucky"-roll in the suppression-mastery.

When you get "35% increased effects" on the small clusters and more resis it would improve a lot, also a 80% manamultiplier helmet is an huge upgrade.

With darkness enthroned you do not need simultan the adorned (or reverse).
With some optimizations, like a second small cluster sublime form, more resis on clustertransfers, bandit alira and veteran defender for resis on a large cluster instead your minion-damage "behemoth sliver", you could use graven's secret, best with resis-belt-implicit again, instead darkness enthroned.
Before you optimze the resis and bleeding-avoidances, use rare ghastly jewels with bleeding- and ignite-avoidances without the adorned.

Yoooooh.

This small and beautiful 500-div-voices dropped today.
Simu wave 7, Oriath`s llusion-map.
In my 5th Simu this league. :-)

Two more small showcases:

The Feared and U-Maven in 3.25 Settlers as CI-HoA Jugg (forgot to take triad grips, it`s recorded with asenath`s gentle touch gloves 10M less singletarget-damage):

T17 Fortress, 35M dps, asenaths gentle touch gloves, awakener touched, beyond, delirium, rogue exiles-titans juiced:

Betta-Ah, Insaener, crawls with the dirty scorpion on twitch and shows a lot about the building and optimization:

I found my first Mirror this league, so I feel richer than god atm...


So, this is the first time I can really get an expensive build.

What would be some good upgrades I can still incorporate into my build for a total of up to around 500-550 div?
