Eternal Youth does not cancel the "Total Recovery from Life Leech is doubled" from Vaal Pact. However it does affect the "Maximum total Recovery per second from Life Leech is doubled". referring to: 5:12 Mark clarified this before league start.

[@RazorHeath]

Could also consider dropping Born of Chaos, instead annointing Cleansed Thoughts, and then you'd have room for two small clusters with Clarity of Purpose or something else. You give up the +max chaos res but it would relieve a lot of gearing pressure in terms of picking up chaos res, plus Clarity of Purpose small clusters are basically free.

[@carlgregory2531]

Big brain stuff, one question - why Cruelty as an OoS support?

[@PohxKappa]

cruelty is actually better than any support aside from awakened light pen, but I would need that at least level 4 and re-color my chest, PEN as less effect then most on hit supports because of my already -75 light res

[@carlgregory2531]

[@CorrexPoE]

hey Pohx, my phys ehp is pretty damn low, which makes me die to onehits alot. What would you say is the best way to increase it? my life is only 3k, probably too low and i dont have the clarity watchers yet, probably worth getting too i guess^^ but in general what are the most imporant things about the build to get more phys ehp?

[@PohxKappa]

8% phys as chaos on shield, 8% phys as fire on helm or get delve affix 10% phys from hits as chaos, tempered by war can roll 5% phys as fire on the mana node on the south

[@CorrexPoE]

​@@PohxKappa definetly need to get the watchers for the additional 10% MoM and i need to roll that phys as fire on mana node! thans! Anyways, i finished my version of your build :) Archmage Stormbrand 20m dps, nice clear with explode gloves (asenath) if your interested: heres a very low quality video of me doing twisted (didnt focus on going full dps, but rather to see how much i can tank them) kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXSon2R6g7Clldk and my pob: pastebin.com/duZyAFzN Also ran 20 labs yesterday, nope, i dont take ANY damage from lab traps and nope, i didnt die once

[@mangotango7903]

How much ex does it take to get this build up and running?

Sigil is too strong to pass imho. It is a part of the package, maybe the build mechanics are op but not putting sigil is mindblowing to me. It's too much damage and too much sustain that are lost because one button is too hard.

@@PohxKappa I started late in Ultimatum and I am still interested in trying this. Do you think the Arcane surge and Archmage nerfs will weaken this build a lot?

I recommend the Hardened scars anoint. I'm playing a very similar build and if you have 51% life your RF will degen you to 50% then you use a life flask and you get fortify plus the RF damage is mitigated but you still maintain Low life for the more multiplier

[@CyrusBlack404]

Me trying to play MOM, Agnostic, Ascendant, Indigon, Ball Lightning mines: Man this build is so complicated Pohx : Hold my beer !!!

[@EcnalKcin]

I have a similar build...but more complicated. No mines though, maybe I need to use mines...I run a hierophant str stacker, with totems, but for buffs/debuffs and regen, not damage, and use indigon with arcane cloak, sigil, and archmage support to scale damage on ball lightning, while running petrified blood for the low life keystone for more damage and more effective regen. The build is questionable at the moment, as it falls short on mana, having only 3.5k max even scaling off of shapers gloves with str. I also have about 1k mana reserved, and I really need to have about 6k mana so my absurd regen from totems combined with a larger pool lets me max out indigon, and I need to not be unlucky/poor so I can get a 6 link replica iron commander that has mostly blue/white sockets, and at least one socket for iron will....but hey at least with replica maloney's mechanism I am getting frenzy charges and curse casts. The real issue seems to be the archmage/indgon interaction, and I am thinking I might have to swap to a lower cost spell so I get more cycles before it maxes...and to think, I could have just built str stacker totems which is a proven reliable build with high dps and absurd survivability.

[@CyrusBlack404]

@@EcnalKcin indigon and archmage don't go that well together ..because the second you hit arcane cloack and you cast your first spell ... your achmage spell costs ... like 20-30k mana .. something stupid ... if it's combined with Archmage ... make it simple ball lightning 7link with thousands ribbons while lvl-ing and 7link pledge of hands in end game... that AOE helps and you can take the 100% aoe from hierophant ascendancy and give up minimum power/endurance charges... EZ if you want to use indigon same thing just don't include Archmage :D I tried to make it work with infinite mana(the spammy mana flask) and they don't go well together just because you don`t have enough maximum mana ...

[@EcnalKcin]

@@CyrusBlack404 Well there are a lot of misconceptions in your response, but I included incorrect information in my original post as well. Specifically when I said I needed a lower mana cost spell, which is irrelevant with archmage, what I need is a slower cast speed spell. You can actually cast 3 or so times after using arcane cloak with archmage + indigon because of mana cost reduction from hierophant, and getting the best cast cost roll on indigon. Also, I can't use a pledge of hands on my build because it requires iron commander for the totem spam which is what gives me armor, increased damage taken to enemies,100% more damage, and absurd life/mana regen. I think I will actually steal the orb of storms/tempest shield skill set, since I wont have to spam cast, so I can cast orb of storms until it caps archmage/indigon damage, then spam tempest shield to trigger it. At which point, I wont be using archmage, so I will spam out max damage bolts without any issues. It will also be nice to be able to leech again with tempest shield, which will work great against tough mob packs like trial mobs. Considering I am a str stacking build with iron fortress and have decent attack block I should be able to proc tempest shield normally pretty consistently. What I really need is to get my 4 blue socketed replica iron commander 6 linked, but 400 fuses in, and it hasn't happened yet, or get my 6 link replica iron commander to 4 blue links, but for that I need the right harvest crafts. One last note, archmage + indigon does work, but you absolutely need the hierophant less mana cost ascendency talent, can't spam cast, and need a massive mana pool to hit the indigon cap within your 3 or so allotted casts before it breaks archmage.

Not necessarily defending the harvest changes but I think an interesting side effect is it leads to more re-rolling which can lead to really creative build ideas like this. Nutty theorycrafting in this one dude. Loving it.

[@gehirndoper]

Why does harvest lead to more rerolling?

[@monawoka97]

@@gehirndoper Just because you hit the end of a character faster. Harvest gave you a way to keep pushing upgrades further and further than normal meaning you would play one character longer because that next step was always in sight. Without harvest you hit a wall of reasonable progression much faster which means rerolling and trying out something different is usually gonna be more fun.
