[3.22] Transcendence Armour/Resistance Stacker Scion

Hello guys!
Heres my build guide for the Scion Transcendence Armour/Resistance Stacker

This build is EXPENSIVE! (I would estimate over 2 mirrors to get it going and several more to optimize)
i do have budget options but these are also quite expensive.

Build TLDR
-Tank any hit in game
-CI Build
-145-230 movespeed
-90 mill to Billions of DPS (in standard you can get insane damage numbers, in league about 90-200 mill i'd say)
-Do any content
-Very fun to build and minmax
-Mele/Ranged with Lightning Strike
-Has to keep Smite buff up for damage against Bosses

What this build can do:
Spoiler
Everything. (Killing/Tanking Ubers, 10 million delve, Wave 30 sim etc.. anything is possible)

Build Mechanics:
Spoiler

TLDR: Stack Armor, Aura Effect and cold res for damage. Convert all of your phys taken as to elemental/chaos and run Transcendence to become immortal.

Its an Armor/Aura Stacker core build using the Transcendence Keystone to get absurd EHP numbers for hit damage. Currently my character has 871,332 EHP. (this is enough to tank pretty much any hit in the game.) In standard these builds can go over 1 million EHP!
One thing to note, this EHP is not Inflated by block or recovery mechanics, its pure EHP vs hits.



Armor Stacking:
I currently have 5.2 million armor (standard you can get 10-20 mill armour) which gives quite a lot of damage with the Replica Dreamfeather Sword. Currently I am sitting at about 145million DPS.

We get this armor from:
-Converted Evasion to armor from Iron Reflexes keystone, Auras, Flasks and the Grasping Mail mod. [Evasion Rating is increased by Overcapped Cold Resistance].


The Grasping Mail mod gives additional Armor scaling from Cold resistance which we have about 700 of. I get it from item suffixes, and purity of elements, purity of ice and flasks.

Recovery is handled with vitality aura which gives about 800 ES regen per seond. and a gain ES on hit Watcher's Eye.

Transcendence gives insane Elemental Damage mitigation by making our armour apply to Elemental damage taken from hits! This damage calculation happens after regular resistance mitigation so we end up reducing incoming elemental damage hits up to 99%!
Downside is that we will have 0 physical mitigation. We get around this by converting all of our physical damage taken from hits to elemental or chaos.


Main Damage Skill:
Spoiler
I prefer to use Lightning Strike but you can do this on Smite or any other attack skill that can be used with a sword.

Lightning Strike has the benefit of having an amazing mark (Sniper's Mark) for some very nice more multiplier scaling.) Also the ES on hit works very well with all the projectiles we can shoot out.

Budget, Untest PoB. Use at your own Risk!
I did what i could to remove some of the more expensive unique items. overall it results in a loss of DPS mainly.

Hoho build looks super fun! Saving this~ Might convert my league scion to this once I get the money flowing!
"For we are not now that strength, which in old days moved Earth and Heaven. That which we are, we are; one equal strength of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will: to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." - Ulysses, Tennyson
hi,

With pob (calcs), cannot see taste of hate effect (physical damage taken)
Can someone explain me why ?

The build is almost gorgeous. But in the version of Doriana you often die... Let’s replace this version somehow, but not expensively, with something more durable
My decision to try this build after the leaguestarter was the most thoughtless decision I've ever made in the game. Each single equipment upgrade cost 2 times more than the previous one, oh yes, it all starts with the purchase of mageblood xD

In any case, this is the most expensive build I've ever been able to put together and it was so much nerdy and fun.
