One of my favorite builds of all time - I hope you enjoy! It's a long watch, so TL;DW:

  • Using Ynda's Stand + Nightgrip to obtain massive amounts of flat chaos damage
  • Damage is used in a 3.5L Herald of Ice setup that chains off of itself via the Call of the Void ring
  • Flat damage also used in an Eternal Apple Rage Vortex setup with heavily buffed Vengeful Cry / Ancestral Cry / Enduring Cry ( shoutout to u/dariidar for the inspiration, see his video explanation here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVM0e0cBzHI )

The result:

  • Bossing Setup = ~500M DPS, Mapping Setup = ~250M DPS
  • BIG Mapping AoE + extremely satisfying Herald of Ice explosions
  • Fast 2 button playstyle (extremely high APS Whirling Blades + Rage Vortex)
  • Solid Thickness with effective 40K Armour + Evasion, 87% max elemental resistances, Ward protection on large hits (check out the volatile core / unstable tentacle fiend showcase), etc.
  • Insane Life Recovery via ~25% HP/s regeneration, Defiance of Destiny, and 30% instant Leech (on a skill hitting ~15x per second + uptime while moving)

WARNING

  • Relatively expensive (~ 1 mirror, 200-250 divines for "budget" setup -- see PoB Notes section for cost breakdown)
  • Has a few required uniques with low supply ("budget" build accounts for possible inflation)
  • Mechanical quirks (I try to prioritize comfort above all else)
  • Build requires patience and crafting knowledge (I'm here to help!)

Have fun, and go make something cool :)
