Rose's Poor Man's Awesome Aurabot

(Most recent update/link verification: 12-29-16)

Hi guys! I did this build before but the thread is gone sooo idk. I have actually invested more into the build to make it better since it's original release so I will be making this new thread to give a guide for both versions.

So, what am I talking about? I'm talking about the cheapest build in the game (if you make the cheap version that is). This is an aurabot build that is so cheap yet so effective you can make it end game viable for JUST 45 CHAOS. No Shavs, no GG rolled items, no 5 link! Just a stupid cheap way to get: 3 defense auras, 3 offense auras, 2 guardian auras (you can do this as a witch if you so choose, I prefer guard for a number of reasons), 3 curses, 2 shouts, and Conduit charge sharing!

The upgraded version is the same as the above except it uses a grouped Curse on Hit setup (instead of manual cast curses), has more ES, has a totem (mostly for extra anti-chaos support), and has another defensive aura.

"But you'll die to chaos damage without a shavs!" I never die to chaos damage. Ever.
"But you'll have too low ES and will be squishy!" Even the cheap version has well over 6k ES and layered passive defenses that make it hard to hit and it can take a few hits before dying anyway.

Follow this video for the cheap version that is 45c and has the above capabilities (WATCH WITH ANOTATIONS TURNED ON, IT'S AN OLD VID!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqlsD3IPQ74

Now, for the *upgraded* version, view the spoilers below to see the differences in gear/link setups. You'll notice that, because of using a 5L for Curse on Hit and having a +2 to Vaal gems corrupted Alpha's, I've completely redone a lot of the build from what you see in the video.

The upgraded version isn't very expensive either if you hound poe.trade for good deals or if you are a crafting addict like I am. Getting a +2 to vaals alpha's might be hard though.
