POE 3.20 Heatshiver Exsanguinate Inquisitor

Quick showcase of a non-uber shaper. I started this league going straight into exsang. It was pretty clunky at first, you kinda need a decent cast speed before it feels ok. Wouldn't recommend starting this, you need a quite a few things to get set up (corruptions, alternate gems etc). Clear is decent with exsang + chain, but wouldn't play this as a pure mapper anyway. Still a bit squishy too, even with full suppression. It's surprisingly decent at the sanctum too because of freeze/chill. You do have to stand still to cast though, so cast speed is very important.

Next upgrades are to get some max res so that should help with defence. Once awakened spell cascade drops in price I'll probably switch straight into reap too as all I need is a skin with different colours.

GEAR

• Weapon: 1c (more if you buy day 1)
• Gloves: 1c, corruption not necessay, but nice to get closer to crit cap.
• Shield: 1c. Look for high regen roll. Phys taken as corruption could be nice too.
• Helmet: Can be expensive with corruption (I bought for 2div). Might go down over time though. Without the corruption you'll need to find a way to fix mana reservation.
• Amulet: Cost me 40c day 1 but drops to ~5c quickly. Before I bought it I used an amulet called Rashkaldor's Patience.
• Belt: 1-5c, I found this one day 1. Life and res all you need.
• Boots: Cheap if you ignore chaos res or life regen. Cant remember how much I paid for this pair. If you get suppress you don't need amulet anoint.
• Rings: ~10c each maybe. Prioritise life and cast speed, the build feels trash with slow cast speed. Chaos res is nice too.

GEMS Getting a very low cost divine blessing zealotry is mandatory for this version, since you don't have the flask mod without Mageblood. You should check the numbers in PoB. Note that there are 2 points on the tree that give reduced cost (6+3) if you need, and that jewels can get another 5 reduced cost. For mana reservation, you can spec 4 points to pick up determination mastery, or switch anoints to sovereignty if you need. (Also ignore enlighten it does nothing for this version) You can also get 5% reduced mana cost on each ring as a bench craft prefix! JEWELS

• Green nightmare is very good value. It gives suppresion, perma frenzy charges when mapping and even a bit of damage. The res nodes leading to it are actually nice too.
• Glorious vanity is obviously very nice with Inquis. Try to find one with some nice nodes like leech, suppress, double damage etc.
• I expected not to buy a thread until much later, but I saw they were only 2div so I bought one early. you get a lot of value out of it in this spot, and there's a mana reserve node you can also take if you need. Would recommend buying early just in case it jumps in price.
• Watchers eye was a drop I got myself. I'm still quite low on crit so this mod was good enough for me. Alternatively you could allocate high voltage on amulet but you will need to make up for suppression. Then you could get cast speed zealotry mod.
