[READ NOTES] Pathfinder - Mamba Viper Strike^3.27

Notes

Gearing

- If you do not have enough chaos resistance, use chaos resistance Light of Meaning
- If needed, fix stats on rare jewels, especially on Hybrid version and before Forbiddens
- Start league with pconc, find some guide for it. Transition after you alt spam some low tolerance clusters
- If you are on budget just annoint Whispers of Doom instead of using Impossible Escape

Bloodline Ascendancies
You can drop Nature's Reprisal and drop some damage and then do:
- That Didn't Happen if you are on budget and do not have any sublime setup or forbiddens for a lot of defense
  (just replace timeless jewel with this, it acts like pseudo Corrupted Soul too)
- Otherworldly Appendages - For defense while keeping Timeless Jewel/sublimes

Variations

Hybrid
- Cheapest, you can play this as soon as you get 3 or 4 medium clusters. Use Taste of Hate before Progenesis for defenses
- Cannot run no regen mods unless you swap some flask to mana flask
- Reduced defenses from altars hurt but manageable
- Can be upgraded to Sublime Ice setup by dropping Flesh & Stone, grabbing Purity of Ice, Watchers for 20% fire/light as cold,
  Taste of Hate for 50% fire/light as cold,
  Sublime Ice for 30% fire/light as cold. Taste of hate only converts hits so make sure to stay above 0% fire/lightning res anyway.
  Then grab missing max cold res till 90% on rare jewels/chest, depends on what you have

Sublime Lightning
- Good for ignoring majority of map modifiers while not being as ungodly expensive as Sublime Fire versions
- Technically not as tanky as hybrid version can be on paper but because of Divine Flesh it can actually handle hard map mods easier

Sublime Fire
- The overly expensive version, build is more than fine without sublime fire, but sublime fire is super nice regardless and allows you to
tank pretty much anything
- Best phys and dot mitigation out of all variations

Whispers
- Mana stacking version with Whipers of Infinity
- Eldritch Inspiration is important, stacks that + low tolerance and some mana on gear
- CI sucks, hybrid is tankier, dont go CI
- Helical is expensive and painful to make so good luck, took me a while. Can use Shavronnes ring instead on budget
- Do not needs to be sublime fire, can also be sublime ice (see Hybrid). This version is just hybrid setup in the end anyway
  just with mana and whispers on top

Crafting

Will add more stuff here when I will be more bored, so far here:

Helmet (Lightning)
- Hunter Blizzard Crown
- Spam reforge chaos to get -chaos res and some other hunter mod
- Elevate -chaos res
- Buy random +2 max lightning res helmet
- Woke orb together (can use beastlocks for getting better suffix)
- Suffixes cant be changed + reforge lightning until brick or hit phys taken as lightning (can use augs to avoid brick but more expensive)

Ring (Vermillion)
- Start with dot multi fractured vermillion (do it yourself because RF players do not know how to craft items so the bases are overpriced)
- Spam Deafening Essence of Torment until t1 life and open prefix (try annul)
- Prefixes cannot be changed + veiled chaos for hybrid flat (can brick possibly, just redo)
- Prefixes cannot be changed + reforge chaos until t1 chaos (can brick, can use aug to avoid brick but more expensive)
