Hey, guys. Took me almost a month to finish this. But I'm fucking proud of what I came up with in the end.
Ascendant didn't feel tanky for me, so I took a couple of Champion PoBs of CC here and there, then suited it to my play style. I cannot play anything below 90K EHP bec I came from RF, so I fucking bolstered this build so hard until I can press any altar mods without worrying a single fuck. It's like, as you get older, you just want to NOT DIE and keep farming comfortably. Ziz/Steel/Cyclops builds didn't fit to my liking bec they're not tanky enough. And they have these positive differences that can be combined altogether so I did it.
Budget
Kulemak is a nice starter if it's cheaper than Saffell plus some random decent dps wand.
I started from scratch because I gave away all my RF items.
My shield is a disgusting 40c BiS lmao.
No Shako. 100c helm I bought and crafted. Tried Shako on Pob with lvl 34 CC, gave me worse dps than my gloves.
80c amulet lmao BiS, everything that you need: stats, mana reservation, gem levels gg
Belt is 150c
Rare Jewels 70c
I'm using 50c Pride watcher's eye.
The rest is expensive as hell, though! 16div armor; 4div wand; 9div gloves; 4div boots; Rings are around 1-2 divs ea.; Divine Flesh 1.5 div; Green Nightmare 2.8div; Unnatural Instinct around 2divs?; then tattoes 14c ea idk how many.
But I started from scratch, so it's doable as a starter.
Notes:
Molten Shell is not active here. If active, it gets you around 180k EHP.
Adrenaline and Vaal Reap are active here.
SO MUCH ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT. Elder implicits are all lowest tiers.
Overall, this is a crazy tanky and high DPS endgame build that can do ALL contents except reflect phys. Uber Elder is a fucking joke to my build. I haven't tried level 85 bosses tho. Mapping could also be smoother if you snag an explody chest with no life mods, + non-curse aura effect. Unfortunately, they're all offline.
