Full Video Guide: 3.28 Legacy of the Rose Inquisitor

Hello everyone, so a few leagues ago I randomly dropped this staff, and it looked sick so i wondered if we can actually make a coherent build around it. So, a few leagues and another cool belt later, behold, the thing I made. PoB is a bit weird for this since it is a newer item, mainly the dps, since we can only use this skill every 5s or so, divide the average dps by the attack rate to get per hit damage (jank, but cbf doing spreadsheet calcs).

Shaper slam per hit damage: 10-15 million. Yes its a big range, nothing we can do though

WoTC dps: 2.3 million. Can clear all content, including T17s.

The item basically allows us to summon shaper after spending 2000 ES, and I picked the Shaper's Slam variant, which seemed like the most fun. The other variants are the shapers balls and laser, which will be a bit different.

We scale the damage by going diamond shrine for 100% crit, which is important since you can only use this every like 5-6 seconds. Since we are using new belt, we can't use flasks, so we go all in on this idea by going Omni, nameless bloodline and get an extra ring. Since there are not many good ways to scale the damage, we go Omni for massive pen and take away pressure of having resists on gear. Since for omni builds get a ton of stats from the rings, the extra one is pretty sweet.

We go inquisitor for battlemage and more attack damage on spell cast, so we can take advantage of the +5 all skills on the staff and use a cast while channeling WoCT. Because we have a diamond shrine, we can use controlled destruction and ignore the downside. DPS is good enough to clear all maps (around 2.3m WoCT). Then the standard consecrated ground and ES regen/MoM.

We then use 4 runegrafts: Gemcraft(+1 Supports), Fury(rage gen since all life flasks), Warp (buff/debuff duration), Jeweller(10% damage per unlinked socket in weapon)

Forbidden Flame/Flesh for Bastion of Hope to cap block. This is our main defense layer, its a bit rough and only part of the build that feels a bit clunky during play

We then use frostmage to inflate our mana(ES) cost of WoTC to spend 2k es faster with no jank corrupting fever set-up.

Is this build uber viable? I have killed ubers, with each slam dealing around 10-20% of Uber Shaper's hp bar per hit. It is not pleasant, but you can do it lol.

Is this build good? I enjoyed clearing all the content with this and one-shotting things. It will never get close to even a B-tier build but I had fun calling in daddy shaper to dunk on the unbelievers lol
