Are you gonna update the build, when 3.3 is out? :)

Yes I will.

Can't wait.

Why use mastermind of discord if you are not using any herald's?

The build is using Herald Of Ash.

On the tab "my gear"you are using Haste and also on the POB, i only found the herald on "gem links" didnt see that before.

Yeah I added the new gem setup in version 3.2 but thanks for the information mate. I will update my gear tab.

Cheers.

There is nothing to update with this build. It's as powerful as before.

Hey there im new to Poets pen etc :)

u say when I hit level 12 i should use volatile dead and unearth but when i socket them into poet's pen i cant use them? do i have to use a third spell to activate the "trigger a socketed gem" ?

And can u explain the combo then :) ? Like just use frenzy and everything just happens itself?

Perfect explanation :) just use frenzy and everything just happens itself.

Best.

Currently sitting @83 with 7.1k ES and the build is feeling very comfortable both defensively and offensively. Below is my gear



Some thoughts so far:
- For even more single-target damage, swap bodyswap for combustion support. This lets unearth apply a -19% fire resistance debuff when it ignites the target (with combustion and flammability your unearth will have a 70% chance to ignite on hit)
- There is a lot of unreserved mana as discipline + herald of ash only reserves 54% of our mana. I'm going to try throwing a herald of thunder or ice in for a bit of extra damage.
- I'm not 100% on which flasks should be used. I might try atziri's promise for the extra leech + capping my chaos resistance from 50% to 75%. I also noticed that your guide uses an ignite immune flask. Do you think this is an important flask to use, as I have been doing okay without it so far.

Anyway thanks for the build guide. I've been enjoying it a lot!
