[3.26] Herald of Agernaut - Perfect first build - Tanky AF and 7/7 Uber Down

Hey,Hey, I'm using your build on Ruthless, but on Scion.
Ruthless has a lot of nerfs to the Ascendancy you suggested, so I decided to take advantage of the changes that haven't been nerfed yet, like the increased mana reservation of the Templar Ascendancy in conjunction with Tailwind to increase minion damage.

Since there's no necessary Timeless in the league yet, I decided to make some changes regarding Chaos Resist.

The damage is decent, as is the defense. The only boss I haven't tested yet is Maven. I'm working up the courage to start losing some Invintations.

If you'd like to take a look and give me some tips, I'd appreciate it.

Very cool changes dude - you've made the build your own and it looks like you're kickin' butt in Ruthless!

As a softcore trade Andy there's not many good suggestions/tips I can offer you. Looks like you have a good understanding of 'how to make it work' based on the changes you've made... so best of luck going forward. Hope you beat up Maven and keep enjoying your build.

I did all Uber Pinnacle Bosses other than Maven using a rare stygian vise belt: https://pobb.in/90h7i-V_I6qg

I've only killed Uber Maven wearing Mageblood with this build and when I wasn't wearing it - my opinion was she is wayyy too difficult as the arena fills up with her Gravity Well degen which lowers our Action Speed and it becomes very difficult to complete her memory game without the speed Mageblood provides. Our low DPS compounds this problem as we have to complete more memory games than other builds.
The solution would be to tank Memory Game but I'm yet to accomplish that with 100% success.

Anyhoot best of luck to ya.

EDIT: Scratch that. My new version of this build can 100% success tank Maven Memory game. See main post. Video coming soon.

in your lvl 100 pob your HoA has 6 support gems

DoFL, AMD, AVP, Pierce, AaFD, WT

which one would you drop or what is the reasoning for having an extra support gem there?

Yeah that is confusing. Disregard Withering Touch support... I'll update the PoB to avoid future confusion on this. Thanks!

So I've very strange question - which Atals activities are better for hoag?

As an blight and expedition enjoyer I feel miserable doing them. Any suggestion?

Not a strange question at all.

I like to think of this build as an Alch'n'Go T16 Toxic Sewer specialist. That's the most fun/effective way I've experienced to play this build.
To that end I have a very simple Atlas approach that being Strongboxes, Shrines, Scarabs, Breach and a bit of Eater of Worlds too.

This Atlas isn't very profitable I'll concede but it's fast XP, has no busy work (other than Kingsmarch and sending ships which is just too profitable to ignore imo) and I dunno... it's just what I enjoy doing most for the bulk of my time playing/gearing for Endgame Bosses.

So yeah sorry if I don't have some more useful knowledge like a Tier list or something... but my advice is to first and foremost do the content you enjoy playing most. This build is not a juicer and is average at best for clearing most side content - the feels good of this build is being ridiculously tanky.

All the best.
