Equipment










Crossbow - We crafted a new Crossbow giving us 80% more damage on explosive shot than our previous one. Get a high flat lightning damage siege crossbow(no attack speed suffix) from trade or get one yourself. Use an aug and get a suffix. Use greater essence of haste to get 23-25% attack speed on your xbow. Then use an omen of sinistral necromancy and use a jawbone. DO NOT Unveil. We want to use a fracturing orb here to try to hit attack speed the reason for doing this is. The desecrated mob cannot be fractured but still counts as a mod giving us a 1/3 chance to hit attack speed instead of 1/4. If you do not hit i recommend you start over. If you fractured your attack speed you now want to activate an omen of dextral crystallization and use a perfect essence of electricity. Remember that mod you augmented that was junk well we just used it to give us a good prefix. Now go get an omen of abyssal echos and go attempt to unveil something good. High increased physical damage being the best mod here, flat fire is good, damage with elemental attack skills. If you don't get anything good here don't worry we can reroll these mods for about 4 divines later. For now just use 2 normal exalts on the xbow for 2 random mods that don't matter. Then use Perfect haste and battle essence, you might have to repeat this til your crossbow is attack speed, onslaught and +6 on the bottom. When you want to reroll the last prefix you have you can use an omen of light to remove the desecrated prefix and use an ancient jawbone for the best chances of getting what you want.
2nd Crossbow is exactly like the first with a gemini base.
Constricting Command is the heart of the build. Surrounded means 5 Enemies when you roll 5 on the helm yt allows you to use all the surrounded nodes on the tree which gives you big damage, attack speed and movement speed. It also allows you to use Defy II but that's currently bugged and the mana mod doesn't work. When this get fixed you will no long have to worry about any mana issues.
Gloves - Get 2 socket evasion gloves. Perfect Transmute and regal to attempt to hit any t2 resistance. If not then annul down to one mod and use Chaos orbs til you hit one. Then you use omen of sinistral exaltation to exalt a prefix. Then use omen of sinistral crystallization and a horror essence to land 100% socket. Then use omen of homogenising, omen of dextral exaltation and greater exalt to slam on a resistance. Then use omen of homogenising, greater exaltation + greater or perfect exalt to slam on 2 elemental flat mods. Use ancient desecrate to attempt to unveil life. Activate omen and vaal orb.
Body Armour - The new corsair base has 20% reduced penalty for attacking while moving combined with all the tree mods we have 78% reduced giving us the name human rhoa. You want high life high evasion. Resistance. You can make your own by recombing 2 defense together, unveiling resistance and homogenisis etc but its really expensive and there are alot of cheap chests on the market that are good.
Rings - You want high life because that is our only pool in this build, evasion, rarity, flat fire, lightning or physical for our prefixes. For the suffixes you want resistance or rarity.
Amulet - You want start with a magic Rarity prefix or spirit and +3 projectile skill. Use greater essence of opulence to get rarity suffix. Then use omen of dextral necromancy and desecrate a suffix. You need to unveil a life mod alone this includes life regen, life on kill or life recoup. Mana does not work it has a life tag but it also has a mana tag. Then you want to use a omen of homogenising and greater exalt and a perfect exalt on the amulet because there is only life mods you will get % life and flat life minimum tier 2. Then you can remove the desecrated mod with omen of light and redo your desecrate for whatever you want.
Boots- THESE ARE EXPENSIVE TO FINISH Get 2 socket evasion base ilvl 82 Transmute regal annul to 1 mod. Chaos orb til 35 Movement speed. Use Omen of Dextral Exalt for any mod. Use Omen of Dextral Crystalistion and an essence of horror. Now your boots is 35 MS and 100% socket. Next use Omen of Dextral Necromancy and desecrate your boots. Use Omen of abyssal echoes and unveil to attempt to hit shock, freeze or chill durtion. Redo this step til you hit this. Use Omen of homogenising and greater exalt(or perfect) to slam on an resistance. Use omen of light to remove the desecrate. Next Next use Omen of Dextral Necromancy and desecrate your boots . Use Omen of abyssal echoes and unveil to attempt to hit life regen. Use omen of homogenising and perfect exalt to land t2 life or higher. next Use greater exalt for random prefix(doesn't really matter evasion is good but its too hard to get it on). Use omen of light to remove the desecrate and attempt to desecrate with Omen of the sovereign to unveil reduced movement speed penalty. use omen and vaal orb. GL

Companion: {0} was added to the build. Its a rare nettle ant you find in the interlude. He is extremely fast and can keep up with you mapping most of the time. You go to the ashen forest in the 3rd interlude and you look for a check point where you will find an ant hole and if he doesnt have "HASTE AURA" respawn at check point. Haste aura is 20 attack speed and 10 MS its very good.
