Neoshift's Notes

MF Blade vortex with very high clear speed, 55% IIQ and 188% IIR without item rarity or gold flask. POB : https://pobb.in/MPbl077krbdb This build can do any non uber content at high speed, without dying as much as other MF build.

You can go up to 300% IIR with gold flask and increases Item rarity support. I tried and it was still very comfy.

This build uses mirrored wand + the squire so we don't bother about dps / crit chance and we're able to add more QOL support gems.

It also allows us to have shield charge which is great for BV. The Squire has + 3 aoe and the shield charge %AS node which is crazy value for the QOL of this build.

I play this build with weapon swap (sinvicta) to benefit from rampage buffs. It's not mandatory, but it feels very good and isn't time consuming in maps.

This build is quite min maxed for Quality of life. By Qol I mean :

High Damage / High AOE / Explode :

  • 17M+ dps with 33 AOE Radius while mapping. The Squire +3 AOE is the key.
  • You have to be stunned while casting to reach max dps, since our stun treshold is so low thanks to ES mastery, we just have to spam BV in front of a monster attacking us to benefit from it.
  • You can swap between 3 last supports gems in squire, personally I always plays with AOE in maps but any of these 3 works in any non Uber content :
  • Awakened increased AOE allows us to reach 33 AOE radius
  • Divergent Hyporthermia for Bossing
  • Item rarity for more MF.
  • Crazy explode with profane bloom + herald of Ice + herald of Ash.

Tankyness :

  • 58k hp pool, multiple defensives layouts to be able to tank most of altar mod combinations or offensive map mod
  • 75% all res without any flask, so you can loot safely.
  • 86% PDR which makes the build very tanky against physical hit.
  • 14 % evade chance, not that much but WAY better than 0.
  • 81% spell suppression which makes this build solo viable tbh. You can cap if you invest more into it (helmet suffix/ removal of one Herald and anoit spell supress/ megalomanic + 3 passives voices...).
  • The broken defensive setup of the league : immutable force / bloodnotch with ES mastery and recoup points in tree. It makes us "immortal" against hit that don't OS us, which is great since spell suppressed hit and physical hit don't OS us.
  • Freeze/ Chill / Shock/ Corrupted blood immune, Ignite isn't a problem with pantheon and reduced ignite duration on Unnatural instinct.
  • HH buffs grants ES wich is insane tankyness for the build during mapping, since we're not using blood rage.
  • 38% Chaos Resistance
  • Petrified blood + Progenesis.
  • Frigid wake from ascendancy.
  • Life Leech
  • 367 life regen with flasks up which solved bleed/ignite/poison problem that this build had.
  • Life and ES on kill
  • 107% reduced extra damage from critical strikes, insane value with bloodnotch setup and achieved throught Chest implicit and watcher's eye mod.
  • You can still die to non suppressed spells hit / multiple "phys as extra" on altars and map mod combined with -max res but it's MF bro.
  • We can run reflect ele maps due to the Squire crucible tree. You can't weapon swap in these maps since ele reflect immunity comes from shield.
  • We can run reflect phys maps due to 100% physical converted to cold.

Very High mobility :

  • Without HH buffs and with 500 rampage stacks :
  • 171% ms, we need to be hit to proc onslaught, but it's very easy to refresh it all the time.
  • Very high AS on Shield charge with onslaught (100% increased effect from chest), faster attacks, The squire crucible tree mastery and rampage if you weapon swap.
  • If you want to have smoother mapping with rampage, you can weapon swap with sinvicta.
  • You just have to cast vaal BV, weapon swap, let vaal BV kill 1+ mob and weapon swap again.
  • You have to cast again haste after the weapon swap.
  • It grants a lot of MS, AS on shield charge and damage.
  • It looks cool
