Completed my first ever mirror craft: Int + Mana stacking KBoC Hiero Wand

I've been iterating on a Kinetic Blast of Clustering Hiero wander with another friend for a while now, using Palsteron's video as the source of inspiration. The build is an absolute blast to play and I got sufficiently invested into making what we think is the best version of the build that I decided to craft the mirror tier wand, since no one else had made int + mana stacking wands this league. Settled for t2 multi because we got absurdly lucky with the affixes and the expected cost of hitting t1 would be another 3 mirrors.

Crafting Process:

Step 1: Buy the base for 4 mirrors. No vivid vulture prison for me, thank you.

Step 2: Get the prefixes. This is the easy part.

1. Alt roll for t1 spell damage. Regal, annul down to just the spell damage mod.

2. Craft Can have 3 modifiers, cannot roll attack mods, cannot roll caster mods.

3. Exalt slam/annul for T1 mana. Annuling is safe as long as you don't remove Cannot roll caster.

4. Once the base has exactly T1 mana and T1 spell damage, craft prefixes cannot be changed and veiled orb. You just need to roll a veiled prefix, ele pen is guaranteed. If you get a veiled suffix, just prefix lock and scour to clean them.

Step 2: Get the suffixes aka pain. We had two ideas for getting the suffix, the first was to go multimod + prefixes cannot be changed + cast speed, annul off the multimod and aug speed till t1 speed. Then prefixes cannot be changed + aug crit. But I think we found a better way.

1. Block int. Slam twice looking for either t1 attack speed, t1 crit or t1 multi. Odds of hitting 1 are around 1 in 50. Get lucky and hit t1 attack speed, by far the best due to the high cost of yellow lifeforce (thanks, degenerate gamblers).

2. Prefixes cannot be changed + Aug crit, looking for t1 crit or t1 multi (2 in 9).

3. Whiff the first one with t1 spell crit, but it kept the attack speed, so prefixes cannot be changed + annul saved the speed.

4. Second attempt also kept the attack speed, but added t3 crit (not good enough), but got lucky saving the attack speed with an annul again.

5. Third attempt hit t2 multi. This was so lucky we just stopped here.

6. Craft crit + int/str. It's an int stacker so int is more valuable than a bit more local crit.

7. Craft haunted enchant.

The entire set of affixes and enchant cost half a mirror. This was so much under the expected cost.

In case people are interested in the build, this is the multi multi mirror pob that I currently have.

My friend and I have also built pobs at 700 div with Headhunter, and a Mageblood 4 mirror version.

I also have an original sin variant at the 5 mirror budget, but that pob is a bit outdated because we've made further optimizations and I never went back and fixed it, so if people are interested, I will update that pob and post it here. It trades off some defence for damage from the ele version.

The build is genuinely a joy to play. Has all the fun of a normal KB wander that blows up the screen with a click, but it's got cleaner single target (no barrage swap).

Edit: From some other posts I've made on the subreddit, it seems enough people are interested in the build. I'll try to post a guide going over the different versions in the next couple days, as well as some crafting advice.
