clamslug's Notes

t16 map, abyss/harvest spec, rng deli mirror - alc'n'go with garbage sextants

maybe build guide if others want to play this? all I see are loop sabos. for now just import on PoB, ask if you need help for config, there's a few things that aren't calculated correctly or at all. also old gear is probably snapshotted on .ninja

I'm likely going to switch to Unearth over Desecrate, but that requires Squire+Ashes+WokeGMP (gonna be waitin a bit on that one). VD would be moved to Spellslinger, possibly with Phantasmal Cremation (because Unearth will always out-cast VD in this setup) in a 7L helm with +5 Unearth corpse level. Unearth would be in Poet's supported by Squire (to get big juice out of corpse life, also avoiding lame +6 gloves)

dps on the balls+DD flat hits is ~5mil here, not counting corpse explode damage
