[3.0] Blight cwc bladefall decay (HSC - uberlab viable)

About

Fellow Exiles, I would like to present you my safe u-lab & mapping build with a twist.

This is a Decay build that utilizes Blight cast when channeling Bladefall to reliably apply decay to targets and deal decent amounts of chaos damage over time. Oh and we also have some poison.. abit.


This build makes use of the new Blight threshold jewel Spreading Rot that increases chaos damage taken by 25% per jewel (up to 2 jewels) on enemies hindered by blight. This damage applies to Decay & poison that we inflict on our enemies.

Bladefall is considered a “hit” and so it can apply decay and also poison. Note that blight cannot apply decay itself.

Build has 60% chance to poison on hit against cursed enemies.



Pros
+ Can do most map mods, only exception is physical reflect.
+ Safe playstyle
+ Everything is super slow around you

Cons
- Not very fast clearspeed
- Damage on endgame bosses is abit lacking

Layers of Defence
This build utilizes many layers of defence.
1. Mind over matter
Currently 40% of mana is unreserved which helps with damage mitigation
2. Decentish life pool
5.8k at lvl 89
3. Temporal chains
to slow everything around you
4. Blight
to slow everything even further
5. cwdt setup.
low-level setup for vortex to chill & slow if they get close
immortal call
6. Block if choose to use Rumi's

[spoiler="1h + shield version"] This build can also be played if you do not have 6linked staff with +1 gems / +2 chaos gems.
In that case we use:

Breath of the Council & a Shield with Spell power. Or the new Harbinger unique shield The Unshattered Will which gives nice health, resists and a buff that makes this version tankier.

Also in this setup the armor will be Skin of the loyal (3B3G) & the 2nd curse have to picked on the tree.
