Level 97 Crit Blade Vortex Bog Shaman^{3.25.alternate}

Notes

Cost around 75d

Most rares in my build were made with essences. Essence on a fractured mod, then lock suffix/prefix harfvest reforge. 
Can also use eldritch currency to fill in mods if you dont have div to lock suffix/prefix.


Prefixes for all armour are Life and ES. No life on body
Suffixes for all armour are resists, attributes, and life regen, in that order. No regen on body.


Obliteration: Get max rolls. Can look at AOE corrupted implicit, but i prefer spell damage

Rathpith: Prioritize spell block chance. Then high ES.

Helmet: Reservation(essence of loathing), Damage taken as elemental is best ichor. Cast speed feels good for me, but other embers are viable.

Body: Life and regen are decent, but late game you drop them for pure ES. Phys taken as elemental best ichor. Endurance charge every 14* or less seconds best ember
			*Take 2 endurance charge duration nodes on the tree to get their duration to 14 seconds. They will never fall off.

Gloves: Chaos leech essential ichor, unnerve best ember

Boots: You need to get 100% shock avoid with stormshroud from boots. Essence for 50-60% then get the rest on your implicits. Can combo avoid ailments and shock avoid on both implicits
			Eventually you will want to use 1 implicit for shock avoid and get regen rate ichor.

Defiance of Destiny: Huge boost in survivability. Get high life gain roll and use life quality catalyst. Can fill in res with this, but dont need high resistance rolls.

Vermillion Rings: Fill in remaining res and stat requirements with suffixes. Crit multi if you dont need res/stats. Craft minimum frenzy if you have an open one. Life is only prefix you need. Catalyst life quality

Magnate: Bis once you get 400 strength. Can go hunter stygian with increased life/flat life for more survivability, I prefer the dps of magnate.

Life Flask: Use to remove CB before CB immunity jewel. After you can replace with DPS flask

Bottled Faith: DPS and regen from consecrated ground

Sin's Rebirth: Unoly might - Big DPS

Quicksilver Flask: Crit or regen suffix

Silver Flask: Crit or regen suffix

Rumi's: Max block rolls

Stormshroud: Must have boots before you equip.

Lethal Pride: Double Damage, Edurance charge on kill, Regen, and max life are all good options.

Rare Jewel: CB Immunity & Inc Max Life. Add attributes/resistances if needed. Crit Multi for damage.

Watcher's Eye: Recovery vitality is best. Zealotry damage on conc ground is bonus. 

Balance of Terror: Wither if you have cast despair. 


No guard skill. They cost too much life to be worth. In a perfect scenario, Steelskin costs 1700 life, then prevents 2200 dmg. Net 500 prevention. It does not feel good when it chunks you in the middle of a fight through cwdt or automation, and dont want to press another button. Feels better with less life, but I dropped it eventually.

Need Enlighten to fit in Tempest shield Without Vitality
Need reservation on helmet or body + Enlighten to reserve both.

Need Endurance charge on kill on your Lethal Pride. Without it you will want to enduring cry to generate endurance charges.

Do not give up caster mastery on tree until you have lvl 5 Awakened Unleash

Despair does not do anything to resistances because enemies chaos res is always 0. Just cast it once every 10 seconds to keep wither from Balance of Terror up. Use Wither Spell Totem before this jewel.
