Hello guys, this is THE HOT MAMA Scion support build :)

UPDATE
- Added videos section

Welcome message
Spoiler

First of all, thanks for reading!!
I have been playing PoE since closed beta, mostly running summoner witches (dps, farmers, support, etc)

As Scion came out I decided to jump in with a support build

I hope you find this build as interesting as I do, currently level 75 and running level 70+ maps

Thanks mariox1011 for his inspiring support templar build:

Highlights
Spoiler

SUPER TANKY: Iron Reflexes is huge with boosted Determination + Grace. 21k+ Armour at the moment!!!

9 Boosted Auras:
Tank setup
Determination + Grace + Purity of Ice + Purity of Lightning + Purity of Fire + Discipline + Vitality + Clarity + Haste

DPS setup
Anger + Wrath + Purity of Ice + Purity of Lightning + Purity of Fire + Discipline + Vitality + Clarity + Haste


5 Curses: Enfeeble + Temporal Chains + Elemental Weakness + Critical Weakness + Warlord's Mark (these are the most popular but any other would apply)

CONDUIT: to share 9+ charges to everyone: a) power charges from Ice Spear + LMP + Power charge on crit, b) endurance charges from enduring cry + warlord's mark, and c) frenzy charges courtesy of Chieftain (frenzy gorilla)

PROJECTILES IMMUNE: courtesy of Undying Evangelist! just stay in the bubble ;)

100% FREEZE AVOIDANCE: courtesy of Alpha's Howl

MAXED ELEMENTAL RESIST: Prism Guardian + boosted Purity of Fire/Ice/Lightning !!


Level-Up Strategy
Spoiler

As you may understand a support char does not have a good DPS source, BUT since the broken Facebreaker build exist we can just level up anything!. Thanks to Rathik2 for his awesome leveling guide:

Target is level 68

Bandits rewards: passive, passive, passive (or help any for 1 extra charge to share)


The Trees


Current stats - Level 75
Spoiler

Enough free mana to spam Ice Spear and generate power charges
Very good defensive stats overall
Biggest concern is the ES value, probably fixed at higher levels with more ES nodes (Nullification and Void Barrier)

The Gear
Spoiler



Item notes:
Alpha's for -8% mana reservation, +2 to auras, and nice Evasion (that would go to Armour with Iron Reflexes)
Shavs for the Chaos Damage mod, enabling 4 auras in life
Prism Guardian for blood magic, +1 to auras and resistances
Ephemeral Edge for ES and some critical chance to generate power charges
Boots and rings for curses
Gloves and belt for ES
Astramentis for strength (optional, could use passives too)

I think the build is also viable with a new Shavs, taking a hit on ES

Optional for broken snap-shooting (see play style section):
Spoiler



Play Style
Spoiler

1. Cast your auras
2. Go to the Scepter of God and kill 1 Undying Evangelist. Easy with curses + Ice Spear
3. Go to Act 2 Old Fields and kill 1 Chieftain (frenzy gorilla)
4. Optional broken option: Switch the chest, equip Sidhebreath and Chober Chaber then snap shot the spectres. Recast auras after that. Note that GGG is planning to make Spectres persistent which would be great for any spectre build:

5. Play


End-game comments
Spoiler

Level 71 Piety Temple = no problem ----> The bubble guy is OP
Level 72 Mine Map, 2 bosses = no problem at all
Level 72 Jungle Valley, 2 bosses = ouch! ----> DESYNC is OP
Level 75 Plateau = no problem, but the gorilla dies (not a big deal)

Looks awesome, definitely want to try it.

May want to add [1.0.0] in the title though.

Awesome build, I have a friend who does the whole 7 Auras thing with FP + MF gear. Yours is probably even better for parties.
