15D EXPLODEY BV Chieftan (Scales Insanely With Currency)

Mid Budget Version -


Weapon 10% ele damage nebulis (these are less than a div)

Helmet: +2 minion skill corrupted honourbound for 2D (at time of posting) This +4 applies to both your spectre and companionship which gives you close to like 50% more life

Shield You want change to block with block spell damage on prefix and The crusader gain damage per block mod. Suffixes you just want Reduced Crit -> fire Res -> PDR -> max res (this will save you a jewel, but not important).
I self crafted mine for like 5D, you just recomb t1 Block with t1 Spell block and then fill suffixes (1 suffix + 1 aspect beast craft + 1 crafted mod) then crusader orb slam for guaranteed gain damage per block mod. Then you lock prefix reforge crit until you hit T2/T1 Crit reduce. Block Str and exalt slam. If you hit fire Res craft on Hybrid fire chaos. If you hit PDR/Max Res Craft on Fire. If you hit a shitter you can keep block prefix reforging crit, but I don't think it's necesary on mid budget

Body: Cloak of flames is super cheap - you can buy with + 1 res corruption for 30C then 4 Socket with bench craft then Tainted jeweller for 6 Socket. Bench craft 4 Link then tainted fusing for 6 Link then tainted chrome for colours. Cost less than half a Div on average to fix everything up. This body Essentially gives us 40 * .9 = 36% PDR which is insane for how cheap it is. Also gives us up to 75% Fire Res.

Boots - We pivot to annihilation with extra max endurance charge corruption. These boots give us chill/freeze immune but more importantly give us adrenaline which is 25% attack/cast/MS ontop of 30% ms so we are zooming. Any decreases in damage from losing + spectres or lower res (less emnity pen) is easily offset by more speed. We also have 75MM DPS without this so we're more than set on damage

***NOTE*** Due to annihilation 6k Fire DoT, we need to tatoo on some Life regen tatoos - these are like 5C each and we don't get any value from str anyways since we're running Supreme Ostentation. Also we need to add Rational doctrine as a result

Gloves super easy and cheap you just want Fire res and chaos and T2+ life. Buy a fractured Life Base for like 40C doesn't have to be an insane base like leviathan since we aren't crafting armor onto it. Base doesn't really matter. Most important part is giga life and we envy spam until T1 any res -> harvest bench reforge to fire. 3rd suffix is either open suffix for crafted chaos+fire res or life regen %. I skipped 3rd suffix bc it wasn't super important.

Rings - we Just want life and Fire res here but a focus on higher fire res. Bc more res = more damage due to emnity. I got fractured life on a ruby ring and reforged chaos until T2+ fire. on avg getting t3 Chaos and T3 Fire doing this costs like 1-2D, however you're most like gonna want a 3rd open suffix for crafted fire + chaos res. Total cost is like 2/3D. Alternatively you can just Reforge fire (cheapest lifeforce) until T1 Fire and open suffix for crafted chaos/fire and call it a day - this costs like 90C and the other prefixes don't matter really.

Emnity - This is borderline OP but giga expensive. You can get a 65 Reduce fire res roll for like <10D and it's still worth it, 62% roll is like 20D and 60% roll is like 40D. This is a little bit OD though, since there is marginal diminishing returns on negative resistances, so the value the first like 75% pen that breaks us into the negative from like 75% monster res to 0% res is like 5x more valuable than the points that bring us from 0 to 75%

Amulet: DD Still - Allocate Disciple of Unyielding for Endu charges

Belt - Headhunter. There really is no other option unless you can afford a multiple mirror shrine belt if you're running a zoomy strat that kills rare monsters. The speed utility plus damage plus borderline invulnerability you get from this is just too broken. You can make the argument for mageblood on strats where you aren't killing many rares - this is totally valid

Flasks we just go 1 life flask with instant use and CB + Bleed immunity. Gold flask for higher t0 chances, quicksilver for speed, cinder for onslaught + 10% MORE Damage, and ruby flask for more penetration (emnity)

***JEWELS IMPORTANT***

Our elegant hubris is super important. It has to be in the spot on the tree and it Needs 2 things and wants a few others.

#1 Need To convert eternal youth keystone into "Supreme Ostentation" - this node allows us to ignore attribute reqs (this is currently bugged on moba)
#2 convert 1 node into "minions have 80% increased life"
Tertiary rolls - Inc max life, Fire res (50%), Frenzy charge on kill, Chaos res

You can use this calculator to find the correct hubris: https://vilsol.github.io/timeless-jewels/tree

Light of meaning and Unnatural instinct - these have insane synergy together giving us a bunch of stats and like hundreds of % of increased fire damage - these have to go in those spots

Other Rare jewels - Use these to cap out our max Fire res to 90% which due to our ascendancy applies to light and cold as well

Add Rational Doctrine For more regen to offset annihalation

Invest into Pretty much the same clusters but just higher life + Fire Res values.

Also add a medium cluster with Assert Dom and Towering threat for More AoE
