Level 98 LL Scorching Ray Hierophant^3.25

Notes

This build was made during Necro Settler chaos & divine inflation about item price , just give a rough idea .

It's a journey , so I made some errors & learn from it.


TL/DR : 
This build is mana-rf it's scale extremly well when you get Indigon & fall off in a little Very high budget for the price invested
More aoe , more dmg , less defense.
Require to burn mana with arcane cloak (mana spender) = more dmg

Pantheon use:
With Purity of Element
Brine King
Tukohama

Without Purity of Element
Brine King
Garukan (with a topaz or shappir flask with 40% reduced shock effect)


Mageblood setup (with boots chill&freeze avoidance & shock avoid + stun avoid flask)
Solaris
Tukohama


Couldn't buy & didn't use a "Graven Secret" was too expensive early on & nullify Militant faith Dominus (48% elemental dmg recoup) very good if you can afford it before Militant Faith


Lvl 16 RF transition
Gear : vendor recipe iron ring + red skill gem = Ruby ring + benchcraft fire res

Tips : Get around 100-120 fire resistance , Heavy belt reward


First Ascendancy:
Tips: use both purity of fire and element , Jade amu reward

Act 6 Beginning
Gear: Kikazaru x2 5c/e

End of Campaign
Gear: Rise of phoenix 25c , Mindspiral 3c

Tips: Do 2nd & 3rd lab in Act 10 and allocate zealoth oath when you get "Divine Guidance" Ascendancy (mana burn from mind over matter effect)

Transition Mana-rf
Gear: Ivory Tower 40-50c

Tips: If you have issue again chaos dmg use the brand mastery & the scorching setup from indigon build


Day 2:
Gear: Jewel Mana/int / Max res or Dot Multi 10-100c
Annoint : Brink of Death

Day 3:
Gear:  Prism Guardian 40c
Shavronne Ring 3-6d (remove mana regen)
Flask charge on hit (self-craft)
Shaper's Touch 10-30c


Tips : Fix Chaos res & get a way to have mana recovery again uniq Ring effect
Shaper's touch good scaling early but if you need extra suffix to fix issue pick a Rare (wasn't good enough for me)

Day 4:
Gear : Indigon 6-8d
Watcher's eye -> Clarity mod 12d (cheapest at 3d)
Corruscating Flask : 30-50c
Mana Flask 27+% qual : 30c
Ivory Tower 6L: 4-6d

Tips: Indigon reduce your ES , make sure to drop % increased fire dmg and have the Watcher's Eye to transition
Mana flask roll Forbodding & beastary bleed-cb
You need 10-15 map to get used to Forboding , just spam arcane cloack & become a circle of Death

Day 5:
Gear: Cluster Jewel x2: 3d each (only this 3notable)
Weapon: (Wand of Scepter) Mana fractured 3d + Woe Essence spam
Awakened Gem: 100c/e x5 (average)

Day 6:
Gear: Militant Faith -Dominus 10%mana as ES 6d
Unnatural Instinct 8d
Helical: 5d spite essence spam
Split personality Mana/ Int 3d x2

Day 7:
GreatWolf Amulet : 15d
Boot T1 mana fractured : 1d (Harvest chaos or essence)
Belt 12-15% Int Implicit: 4-5d (Spite Essence spam)

Day 9 :
Shavronne ring %int & cata : 30d
Glove Fracture mana 2d - Crafting 45d (unlucky)

Day10
Tattoo Tukoama shaman (life reg) : 10c/e

(testing squire & elder/shaper scepter basicaly worse than just swapping determ into zealotry) around 20-40% more dmg but you loose Flesh & stone and have Resistance issues to fix.
7M(squire) vs 4.7 or 5.6M (Zealotry)

Squire swap:
Weapon : 8d-16d to craft
Squire:2d

 (forget the mageblood and flesh & stone + enlighten) , 
respect to alira & 1-2 jewel with res to fix res issue

Better Mageblood setup:
Journey Tattoo of Mind  : 3d x3 (can cost more)
Better Helical : 150d
Annoint : Mind drinker (if Thrill Killer is changed) , othewise Primal Spirit or back to Brink of Death 220c

(can probably swap back to squire for more dmg but I like tankiness)
We need the % mana on kill during mapping specialy without the mana flask to sustain

(I gamble into a mageblood you can stay the belt %int, keep the setup of day 10 & maybe try to put Journey tattoo)

End-Game Setup
Journey Tattoo of Mind : 4dx1
Impossible Escape "The Impaler : 1d

List of upgrade I cannot/didn't do:
Sporeguard annoint -> vaal orb rare -> mythic orb
A better militant faith (mana node back)
Remake my prefix boots into Immune chill from veiled orb & craft Immune Freeze. and swap Pantheon
Weapon(squire setup) with mana mod prefix and aug suffix
