My builds

Would be nice to say in your guide that this is standard, that your gear cost easily 60 ex for your Shav's, 3 ex for the empower, between 2 and 3 ex for the ED lvl 21, 3 to 4 ex for the Enhance lvl 4, 2 to 4 ex for the BotC, that there is ONE belt on all of standard that comes close to yours (viper bond: 50str, 120 es, 90 life, 32 lightning res, 20% ES recovery rate, and cost probably a mirror or so), a belt with just 60+es and 20% recovery is a minimum of 4ex, that a similar watcher's eye cost 40ex.

All in all, above 116 ex for a rather slow clear speed, and a boss killing that could be faster.

From a personal point of view, it looks cool, I dig the triple curse + double blasphemy/enhance, though it feels like it lacks area coverage, but I may be wrong.
Your tree could be lightly adjusted, but that might be down to personal preference.

Thanks for the effort, just let potential new player know that this build isn't beginner friendly, since ES is a little different play style from leveling and that the amount of currency required to reach a similar experience to the one showcased in the build is way above the average player.

/Cheers

Well, He isnt *much* of a hater. He just phrased things kinda aggressivly.

Then again *You* put '3.2' into the title - which indicates that this character and its gear got aquired/can be geared and played in 3.2 and its associated league. It simply can't be aquired in Bestiary due to the legacy gear you are running.

By no means did you point out for new players that the gear is expensive as heck or no longer obtainable when simply playing the game. NVM that it isnt Bestiary or (whats the current thing called?) Event-able. Thats sorta missleading and you should not be surprised about angry comments.

While you might have been lucky with vaal-ing or got something for cheap - I think it should be best practise to at least mention how much the gear you are currently running is worth - so people know what kind of budget investment to expect when they want to try to get similiar results as you do.

Other then that your Character/Build is a pretty standard and straightforward ED/Contagion LowLife Build. I personally would be bummed out by not having a decent movement skill and slow movement rate on such an expensive character. Flamedash also always feels - to me at least - super clunky if not linked with a faster casting support at the very least.

My personal opinion is to drop the wither totem - I know! In PoB its such a huge damage increase. But thats tooltip warrior-ing imo. First of all the cast-speed of your faster casting totem is 0.25sec. So thats 4 stacks per second - or 8 stacks before the debuff runs out again. So a max of 8 stacks. With temporal chains its more - but bosses and especially shaper and his guardians have 80% resist to curses so its actually not quite as effective. Lets round it up and say the totem can get up to 10 stacks. Thats a nice buff - in theory if the frikkin thing would not die all the time. And it constantly gets destroyed in encounters where you would need it/the boss is hard.

You can check the uptime yourself in your own videos - in the Minotaur fight its up constantly - then again you can facetank him and killing him 10 seconds later or earlier doesnt even matter.
In the Phoenix fight where you struggled a lot more the uptimes was errr - in the whole fight I think I saw it put down twice? I think? And then it got destroyed pretty much right away.

While I know it might be a hot debate - I think cutting it might not be to bad. Or useing a cast while channeling chains with wither and contagion. That way you use wither more often - spread contagion automatically and only have two buttons. Also should free up at least one gemslot for a faster casting with Flame Dash.

Lets keep it constructive! \o/ I envy you your lucky gear quite a bit to be quite honest! :P Its really neat. :)

Cheers :P

Thanks, I made up an Essence Drain build and came up with a skill tree very similar to yours. Shaper viable too, I didn't think it would be but the damage over time can be a good Shaper killer.

just wondering if there updates to be had thanks
