[3.11] Poison Blade Vortex Assassin (Carried me to level 100 / delve 600+ / Aul / Sirus A8 viable)

with the Delirium Monsters not leaving Corpses, you still playing with Asenath´s or you switching ?

And for leveling without poison you have any suggestion for gem links ?

Pretty sure that BV already kinda ignored the less damage part of Unleash and thus doesn't care about that change.

Edit: Nevermind, saw the bugfix of Unleash/Spell Echo etc. That might actually hurt a little.

Do you think it's worth it to use Apep's Slumber when just starting with Maw of Conquest and Golden Rule?

As far as I saw it there are still normal monsters, so Asenaths still works on them. But if there is a situation completely without corpses, I would consider favoring the Embalmer.

I still leveled with poison supports, but did the scaling over physical. The leveling process was relatively smooth this way and a little bit above my average time of 5 hours for the story. (Nothing compared to racers, but still not too slow)

I always say people not to worry too much during leveling about optimal setups and be adaptive to what drops.

what do you think about mind over matter ? Would it be good to add with the new defense skill

There are too many good options to reserve mana for, for MoM to be worth it.

Yeah i think on the Delirium Boss Encounter, there are waves of Monsters so without the Corpses i didnt know really how good the Asenath´s are, but you are right for normal mapping it should be good, and for stuff like the Delirium Boss the gloves should be easy to swap

Thank you for your answers, really nice build

You would have to drop Acrobatics for it and invest into ES to make this worth, but than you loose a mayor layer of defense.

Mind over Matter will in this setup that I presented just leave you mana starved as you reserve all and play with a minimal ES Pool and Eldrich Battery (with the helmet).

How would you go about leveling? Contagion/blight? or stick to BV when available?
Jup jup!
