If you enjoy screen-wide purple explosions and a build that deletes packs the moment your curses land, this setup is for you.

In this video I showcase the current Occultist Impending Doom build in 3.27 – a near-finished version that’s already strong enough. We go through the full curse engine step by step: how Impending Doom actually works, how to stack and overlap curses with Vixen’s + Cascade, and how to use a Timeless Jewel + cooldown recovery to make the whole thing feel smooth instead of clunky.

This is not a budget league starter, but if you’re looking for a powerful late-game project with satisfying explosions and a high-ceiling endgame, this guide should give you everything you need to put it together and adapt it to your own gear.
