PrismaSigma's Notes

Just talking about my league starter for 3.23, how it went and how it's going, along with what lessons I've learned and what the next upgrades are. This was probably my best league starter ever.

PoB: https://pobb.in/jy5bzEy2Zu7U (includes trees, item sets, and skill sets for Day 2, Day 3, Day 5, and Day 7+)

I neglected (or forgot) to touch on a few things, but the video was already getting long, so I'll list those things below (I'll add more as I remember):

-Adding Zealotry to the build would be a good upgrade, but I would need to fit in a level 4 Enlighten and maybe some reservation efficiency charms.

-My current mapping strategy is just bouncing between Mesa and Jungle Valley for Searing Exarch altar farming

-Map mods to avoid: Cannot leech, Monsters steal power charges, Elemental reflect (unless immune), Cannot regen, Reduced effect of auras (resists come from Purity of Elements so this may lower our resists below cap)

-You can get reflect immunity by spec'ing points into the Divine Judgment passive wheel (left side of the tree), taking the Elemental Mastery for reduced reflect, and using the upgraded Soul of Yugul pantheon power. (Or you can use a charm with reflect immunity)

-Eldritch altars to avoid: Minus evasion rating (bricks ES recovery because of Ghost Dance), Chance to be targeted by meteor on flask use

-Currently I have no source of Cold Exposure, this is just because I'm being lazy and waiting for Awakened Cold Pen to hit level 5. Should be using Frost Bomb or Hydrosphere.
