The clicking sound is Ruzhan's Brand finger snapping.
Probably last build of the league, fun times with a new class as I can see there's some more options to lean into each of the Djinn commands. I opted to stick to Ruzhan because Reckoning is such a satisfying button to press and wanted to just boost it up as much as I can. I used Navira just for Muster fodder, but eventually the damage was good enough that I didn't need her and replaced with Trap. Ruzhan SRS for single target, Arsonist detonate command (originally for SRS but it's bugged atm) with Wolves and Brand/Trap for mapping.
Build could probably do simulacrum, but the ES recharge and getting chipped down started to show when I got swarmed and minions being spread out when bosses spawn. The build has issues with running forward and usual minion things. GGG please give us a button to have minions deaggro and run back to your position as well as making Signal Prey screenwide to ensure a focus target. This would solve so many running between pack issues splitting minion focus imo. Also, let us bind R3 and L3, this is a very button intensive ascendancy.
Kelari/Ruzhan made short work of the campaign with no real gear outside of a +1 Sceptre. Only took me 3 characters to finally understand how to build a temple, but the lack of an easy reset button sucked. Also, minions being locked out and needing to run deep inside a room gets old fast.
Inflation from the temple stuff was insane, everything is worth so much in maps now. I had 130div in Uber Arbiter frags just running to citadels every 10 maps apart for a week. I was hesitant on spending double digit divs on things, but the build still only cost 40-50div mostly in lineage support and ES gear. There's still further minion levels and more ES one can squeeze into the build if you want to keep throwing currency away.
