If by AA you mean Arctic Armor then... well, you might wanna look into linking a leveled Empower to your Reading Skill.

He means Aegis Aurora.
Its kinda funny that he calls a softcore build that has actually died before (he died in his first attempt at double piety with additional projectiles) and calls it "better" than Aux's build. Especially when he says "against minus max resist/crematorium". I'm not knocking on Dragon's AA build but I think it is highly unlikely for him to be better at tanking -24% max resist creamtorium firestorm compared to having lvl 20-24 arctic armor on the same conditions. 100% chance to reduce fire damage taken by 189-273 is much better compared to a mere 46.5% chance to recovery ES via aurora. Yes, the aegis aurora build would fare better than Aux's at temple (since arctic armor does nothing for lightning damage) but to claim that it is automatically better is a pretty bold statement to make coming from someone who has played neither builds. Also, it is not as though you can't use a shield like Rathpith Globe to get spell block as well (that is what I plan to do on my own arctic armor EK ranger). |

" dragon wasnt using rainbowstrides for max spell block this guy took the build and perfected it .... 67% spell block, 1800 ES and 37k armor .. and is at level 96, if aurora build isnt hardcore viable then this build isnt either. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xb_wuEuqPsA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgxU7NNzLdc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_MO_sX-AOQ lol'd at arctic armor protecting against crem boss fireballs, maybe an unmodded one ... still hits for 500-600 ... with flask. But thats an ez mod crem. top lel This build has inferior hp and dps, no es, and less overall defenses. Also, unmodded blacksmith? big deal ... extra dmg, boss dmg, extra ele/-res, vuln mods? And its about the ES / armor heal, not about the spell block. I know this build can get some spell block too. And dragon's build can run arctic armor to BM if so wanted to. |

" 38 life / sec on 4k hp? lol nothing, l2p even if a melee build decides to move so much, the mobile cost can be paid with life leech cap easily. not that he needs the Arctic armor, unlike this build which relies on it for white mobs and easy unmodded bosses.

" Rofl, arctic armour doesn't work on blood magic at all. The cost to cast it is 0, and applies a mana/s debuff. Attaching blood magic to it doesn't fundamentally alter the skill... You clearly understand a lot about the game. If it worked the way you assumed, everybody would run it that way. @UnfairMonopoly

Hey Aux, I took the Idea of the everrunning Arctic Armor and tried it myself, only that i started at the Templar Area. Using EK / Beartrap /Firetrap and running 7 Auras atm.
Pls tell me what u think. http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1158669 Cyclone MARA Beginners and Advanced Guide. Last edited by Vincendra#0721 on Sep 8, 2013, 1:32:01 PM

" That build looks absolutely amazing. I wish I could do something like that, as I'm sure much of the hardcore community does, especially on Onslaught. The problem? Run some numbers and figure out how much he spent for the gear to do that. On top of that, helms and chests like that just don't exist on Onslaught. I spent max of 8 chaos per piece of gear--besides Alpha's Howl which are less then 1 ex now. It's great fun to do crazy mods on maps like that, but face it, people don't run maps like that on Onslaught because it just isn't worth the risk of a d/c during the boss, or other unforeseen happenings that are out of your control.

There are definitely people on Onslaught that run maps like that, you don't need a crazy all-out tank build to survive something like blacksmith or crem boss with 1-2 hard mods, theres plenty of options available. Obviously you would reroll something like twinned, vuln, extra damage, if you model your entire build around tanking such an encounter you'll probably be not all that useful to a party besides of that specific situation. Also, why would anyone listen to a guy who believes you can run Arctic Armor on BM and then tells you to "l2p" immediately after.
