Hi Remi, firstly thank you for the guide, I managed to put together everything I needed for the build yesterday and have been playing it and enjoying. I decided to put my values into your penance brand calculator and got 16 final explosion stacks based on a 0.23 cast time, hit rate of 8.36 and a skill duration of 1.18. I know this is decent but what gear changes would I need to make to go about fixing and improving it so I move out of the yellow and into the green?

Here is all of my current gear as well as a path of building link if that works better. Thanks for your help! https://pastebin.com/VM7HXNGG

First of all glad you're enjoying the build.

For your cast speed stuff, you are actually on 19 stacks if you have used a movement skill recently and your ghost shroud is up. You should be dashing often anyway to dodge boss skills or speed up while clearing so I'd say most of the time you'd have that up. Ghost Shroud is quite conditional but you would have them up at no time. On top of that It seems that you've forgotten to allocate your cluster jewels on your passive tree, so you missed quite a bit of cast speed there (and also I disabled cinderswallow).

So with just 2 ticks (Ghost Shroud and used movement skill recently), you have a total hit rate of 9.54, which brings you to 19 stacks and I'd say it's perfectly fine, you will guaranteed to hit 20 stacks if you proc-ed remarkable

Thanks a lot Remi, I realize now that I just hadn't configured things right in PoB so I wasn't showing the right values. I think the only things needed now are for me to finish crafting my Herald of ash reservation helm with an awakener orb for shaper influence and also getting the two Shapes COTB rings.

I have one additional question if you don't mind. Is there any way to get corpse removal with the build? I find that the most deadly things with the build in its current state are on death effects from porcupines and basically everything else in POE.

Hello, thank you for the guide and detail explanation of the mechanic. I really enjoyed the brand play style, I'm consider playing this build as league start next league. Will the price for rare item in the budget version be higher next league due to it's not being harvest?
