[3.0] Immortal Archer (200 ES CI tank)

Welcome!



I posted a video of this build on reddit half expecting just to get a laugh from people, and instead got a lot of requests to make a build guide. This will be a very basic guide.

Right now, the build only functions on Standard League, but you can definitely take some of the mechanics and apply them to league for some serious damage mitigation.


Explanation
Spoiler


100% physical damage conversion to elemental/chaos damage while having 100% max resists.


You will need legacy items for this, (you can achieve 97% physical conversion on league with a Reblade helmet.)


25% phys conversion

30-40% phys conversion

30-45%+ phys conversion (flask effect is applied)


For maximum resists, you need


In order to make sure your mana doesn't fill up quickly and remove divination Distillate effect, you will need Shavronne's Revelation (which if worn in the right ring slot, prevents mana regen). You will cast solely on the mana you get from the flask.

52 mana cost is just enough to spam the poison BV setup to 20 stacks. Other variations had too high of a mana cost and were only able to get 15-16 blades consistently. To use the physical damage setup, you will need 2 jewels with 5% reduced mana cost of skills and possibly even an elreon ring or amulet.

Flask charges refill by using the Master Surgeon ascendancy node with a decent crit chance. Flasks also recharge quickly from Nature's boon. Increased flash charges gained applies to both natures Boon and charges gained from critical strikes.

Notes:
Spoiler

The following bosses require additional care:

Atziri/ Uber atziri - Empowered flame blast has 10% penetration.

The Shaper - Orbs/bullet hell have 25% cold pen

Death and Taxes - Flame blast has fire pen, Ice nova has cold pen, storm call has lightning pen


Garukhan - physical degen cannot be converted to elemental damage taken.
