[2.6 / 3.0] BLADE VORTEX OBLITERATION

The CI Occultist version is obviously more tanky, since it's Energy shield based and we know how strong ES is in this meta. But as far as pure damage and clear speed goes there's not comparison at all, berseker is miles ahead.

Thx for reply! Basically i want a build that can easily farm uber lab/end game content without worrying too much. I was considering this build, but also occultist looks pretty tanky as you said.

Probably one of the fastest in the game, following just the top clear speed build (vaal spark, coc shield charger and those kind of stuff). Obliteration explosion and Commandment of Blades allows you to offscreen whole packs before even seeing them, while blade vortex allows crazy single target damage and smooth gameplay.

If you wanna just farm Uber lab, probably the Occultist version is superior, since it has tons of energy shield recharge to ignore trap and annoying stuff, and you do not need actually too much damage to deal with Izaro; while this life version, with Vaal Pact, cannot regenerate life so you need to rely 100% on flasks during traps (it's not a big deal, just you need to get used to it. I farmed Uber lab for a consistent period of time with the first version of this build in prophecy league, whitout any real trouble). For everything else this version is just better and way easier to itemize, as any life based build. The only mandatory items to start with are the two Obliteration wands, everything else is just whatever you find with enough life and resists. When you gathered enough currency, you can invest into stuff like Cospri's and blue items (if you wanna go the Hidden Potential route, for the highest possible amount of damage), but you can farm up to red maps with a 10c investment or even less.

Advice for lab - take War Cry ascendancy and you have yours "regen" if potions are empty.

This build is amazing! Yesterday I tanked Vaal Temple bosses, Overgrown Ruin bosses and even fucking Abaxoth, all of those before I even had a 6link. Still have a lot of stuff to improve, just hit 6k life. Later today I'll try killing some of the guardians, should be easy.
dont forget about amazing talismans this league have

Got one for 5c, same stats as yours.
What do you guys think of using the reworked The Gull instead of Devoto's Devotion? It has up to 80 life/40 cold res, increased shrine effect/duration, and chance to create a shrine on kill.
On the other hand, Devoto's basically give us 20% mov speed (which is very nice for this build, I know), that can be totally outperformed by a long lasting buffed Acceleration Shrine, if we get on while mapping.

For Uber Atziri and Shaper farming, we can swap a blue helm with life and cold res for +25% double-dipping increased dmg, since there will be no trash mobs to create shrines. (assuming Hidden Potential version for this ofc)

Let me know what you think about it
Cheers!

I wanted to try it, but without devoto's I don't have enough dex to use cospri's ;(
