Didn't mention in the vid, but it feels like the only times I ever die in maps are when I get greedy and try to loot (stand still) in front of a juicy rare... or some insane alter / expedition mods.
So yea try to avoid that if you mind dying
I'm using a 6White Utula's Hunger for easier socket colors and gem swap
Cluster jewels are a good source of res / attributes to fill in any gaps you have
remember to (turbulent) catalyst your replica emberwake
Helmet Craft:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
awaken orb the two elevated mods (faster ignite + nearby -fire res)
if you have an open suff, then there's an option craft on "cast socketed gems when you focus" to apply your 4 curses without hextouch
this frees up a socket, and you can eliminate a gem swap (molten shell/smite)
assuming you also have an open prefix, then craft "can have up to 3 crafted" to protect the open suffix and do step b), remove the multimod and craft the focus mod
a) if you instead prefer to use hextouch / really need a res on helmet
if open suffix & prefix, suffixes cannot be changed, reforge chaos or lightning depending on what you need. otherwise just do step b)
the lightning res can be swapped to cold or fire using the harvest res swap craft, but make sure you reforge lightning if you need an elemental res (because there are other fire/cold mods in the pool)
b) if open prefix and full suffixes, suffixes cannot be changed (wild bristle matron if you want, they should be cheaper) reforge cold for phys taken as cold
you want cold because taste of hate(sapphire flask implicit) reduces incoming cold damage
I have fire on my helmet because taste of hate was a later addition, and I had a perfect roll + too lazy to recraft.
option to (lock suff) aisling if you want
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gloves:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
buy any temple mod gloves with another good elemental resist + an open suffix (you can harvest resist swap the temple mod to fire later)
it doesn't matter if prefixes are full can you can eldritch anull it
suffixes cannot be changed reforge chaos for chaos res.
if it rolls really poorly, you can try to annul it off/try again, and if you miss then buy another base.
the flask mod is from guff, just buy guff's veiled gloves if you don't have the craft yet
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boots:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
didn't mention in the vid, but you want the fire damage enchant if you don't care about bosses
crit also works, as it helps with EO consistency while mapping
i'm using an es base for EB/divine blessing
on a fractured base (chaos res) spam Torment Essences (use deafening so you don't have to deal with orb of conflict bs) until you get a good res
if you need to, a prefix can be opened up with an eldritch anul
suffixes cannot be changed veiled chaos
block mana, unveil MS + onslaught
if you don't hit the onslaught mod, instead of recrafting, you can use the onslaught tattoo, it only costs 1 passive point for the notable
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Belt:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
get a stygian vise (we need the abyss jewel slot) with good chaos res + a flask mod, along with open suffix & prefix
I bought the mods, but you can make it with envy essences. This way, you can use a catalysted (probably res) + enchanted (ailment duration) base
multimod to protect the open suffix
suffixes can't be changed scour to clean the prefixes if you want (you need to do this if there's life on it and you're using utula's)
warlord exalt slam for one of the damage mods
block life and slam a prefix if you want
then remove crafted mods and craft cooldown
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Staff:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
get a good fractured fire dot multi base since has a really low weighting. crit implicit for elemental overload
just spam hysteria essences lol
I was just trying to get a good suffix + decent flat ele to spells or percent fire damage so i can craft the other one
alternatively, you can try to aisling for a high % fire damage prefix, but the odds aren't that good. not really worth the average cost unless you're minmaxing the build
you can also just aim for 1 high tier prefix and multimod 2 other prefixes (% fire, %fire as chaos, flat ele to spells) calc the best combo in pob
