Notes


IMPORTANT MASTERY DECISIONS:

Use Runegraft of the Fortress on a mastery node that is not used by the build.

If you are not suppress capped, use lucky suppression mastery. If you are not using doryani's prototype use inverted enemy res mastery on elemental damage wheel.

FAQ:

What is the mercenary gear?

Kineticist with haste for mapping (can also use a merc with grace to be tankier), Doryani's Prototype with -lightning res rings to get to -200%, Asenaths Gentle Touch for clear explosions (take these off when bossing), if you dont have -200% lightning res on merc with doryani you can use Legacy of Fury to lower it more,
if you do have -200% you can use Windscream. Perquil's Toe for lucky damage, Kaom's Binding for phys reduction, Eclipse Solaris for blind, Replica Victarios Charity for endurance / frenzy uptime, Leer Cast for damage

How to craft gear?

Pretty much every gear piece is recombinated or you can fracture / dense fossil	

Why two smites in skill setup?

Just for PoB to calculate dps of both the area and the melee hit of smite. You need to stand a bit away from the enemy and you will hit twice instead of once, this is why.

How much ES do I need to swap to Ephemeral Edge?

I aim for 8k at the lowest

Why do I feel slow?

Get attack speed on your jewels and make sure your frenzys are up from either your merc or cold snap.

How can I get tankier?

Check out the Aegis Version on this pob https://pobb.in/aPwuyTOic56N and swap some nodes / gems to smite.

Don't have vaal smite of judgement?

Use regular vaal smite in another link and just use that when you need it instead

What is the skill order?

make sure your merc is close to the enemy so doryanis applies, curse, desecrate for blade flurry, vaal smite, tincture, then make sure you are at the correct distance from the enemy to get 2 hits with smite.

Bossing

Make sure you take off mercs asenaths so it doesn't overwrite a damage curse

What is desecrate for?

General's Cry

Bandits?

Kill all or Alira

Pantheons?

Brine King before you get full ailment immunity, Lunaris after you get it. Ryslatha for minor.

Resolute Technique on Sword

Eventually you will want to get RT implicit on your sword so you can drop any accuracy related things on the build to put them towards better stats.
