[3.6 HC] Immortal Support with 3 million DPS?! Elemental Damage Heals Party?! 5 Curses?!

Work in progress!!!

This build might sound too good to be true but it works like a charm! This is the most broken, most unbalanced, most complicated and most fun to play build I have ever made out of my 200+ builds.

Two minutes of Gluttony of Elements combined with 10 seconds of Immortal Call, 8000 ES Regen and 75% chaos resistances will make you immortal.

How does the build work?!



Spoiler
The core idea of this build is to scale two of the most fun and powerful mechanics, Vaal Righteous Fire and Gluttony of Elements, via Shackles of the Wretched self curse Temporal Chains. And by using Kaom's Roots to bypass the slowing effect and stacking curse effect:

Passive Tree and Occultist: 65%
Curse on Hit Quality: 10%
Helmet Enchant: 30%
Conquerer's Potency: 4%
Total: 109% Curse Effect

Temporal Chains gives us 40% slower action speed but its 40% less effective against players which reduces it to 24% ( 16 difference, remember this )

40% * 2.09 ( 109% effect ) = 83.6% curse effect

83.6% Curse Effect - 16% because it's on a player = 67.6% Slower Action Speed

67.6% Slower Action speed means our buffs last close to 3 times longer than normal ( 75% would be 4 times )

Why?!:

Vaal Righteous Fire = 13.2 seconds duration * 3 = 39.6 seconds
Gluttony of Elements = 9.5 seconds duration * 3 = 28.5 seconds
Immortal Call = 3.57 seconds duration * 3 = 10.71 seconds

BUT Gluttony of Elements got nerfed: Blood of Corruption's Gluttony of Elements skill now prevents those affected by the aura from gaining Vaal souls. This affects all versions of the item.

That's where the staff comes into play!

It gives us 40% reduced soul cost of vaal skills which stacks with Soul Catcher's reduced soul cost.

Soul Catcher has 25% reduced soul cost but we have 47% increased flask effect which means it gives us 36.75% reduced soul cost

40% from the staff + 36.75% from the flask = 76.75%

Gluttony of Elements costs 100 souls - 76.75% = 24 Soul Cost ( rounds down )

WHICH MEANS we have 4 charges on Gluttony of Elements once we pop the flask at 100 charges: 28.5 seconds * 4 = 114 seconds of Gluttony of Elements and 39.6 seconds * 4 = 158.4 seconds of Vaal RF before we have to get 100 souls again!

With a decent party you can easily clear any map in two minutes after you get your first 140 charges ( 40 for Vaal RF and 100 for Gluttony of Elements ).

When your last Gluttony of Elements runs out you still have 44.4 seconds of Vaal RF to get your 140 souls back!



How to get this 40% reduced soul cost mod on a staff?!



Spoiler

1. Buy any i84+ staff with block chance
2. Buy an Prime Alchemical or Chaotic Resonator
3. Put the following fossils in it and use it on the staff:

Bloodstained Fossil ( 40% Reduced Soul Cost )
Prismatic Fossil ( Elemental Damage )
Aetheric ( More Spell rolls - Less Attack rolls )
Sanctified Fossil ( Higher Rolls )



How to play?:



Spoiler

1. Switch to Aurumvorax + Shield
2. Help party by cursing every pack with bane and blade vortex curse on hit until your Gluttony of Elements and Vaal Righteous Fire are full
3. Switch back to your staff
4. Cast Gluttony of Elements and Vaal Righteous Fire
5. Turn normal Righteous Fire on
6. Recast Gluttony of Elements when it has 1-2 seconds left
7. Turn normal Righteous Fire off when the last Gluttony of Elements runs out

Keep Blade Vortex up at all times
Stay next to party members
Don't forget to turn off Righteous Fire
and don't forget to turn off Righteous Fire



Do Not Get Elemental Resistance On Gear!



Spoiler

1. We use weapon switch with Aurumvorax and an high Elemental Resistance shield while getting souls for Gluttony of Elements.

2. We switch back to our staff when on full soul charges and enjoy 5x 40 seconds Gluttony of Elements until we have to switch back again.

3. We need chaos resistances on gear as chaos damage is the only thing that could kill us

4. Elemental damage HEALS use so we need low elemental resistances!

You will level very smooth and insanely fast using a Tabula Rasa with Bane:

Dispair
Enfeeble
Temporal Chains

Rush the extra curse node while taking all the life nodes you can easily get and for lab go Malediction -> Vile Bastion

Yes, it's addressed in the guide.

To counter the nerf we use 75% reduced vaal soul cost to get 4 charges of Gluttony and combined with the 3 times duration we get from self-curse temporal chains we have 2 minutes of gluttony before we have to get souls again.

Updated many things! Whisper me ingame @Struyk for questions!
Expected more replies :O

Hey man,
Would you mind showing us a short video with gameplay? I'd like to see how smooth this goes with the gluttony of elements nerf.

Generally speaking builds with a video get much more attention then those without one.

Edit: Also would like to know how fast this build is as any support build that lacks behind the others kind of isn't that usefull
