Ready for something juicy exile????

Is RF too slow for you? Are you tired of backtracking for single mobs all the time?

Is Death Oath too hipster for you? And requires too much investment??? Plus you are sick and tired of playing occultist all the time?

Do you absolutely hate paying full attention while playing? Do you wanna laugh at fully juiced Soul Stealer mobs who attack you 20 times a second and you don't feel a thing?

Do you just wanna walk your way from act 1 to endgame and just continue walking undisturbed?

Well then exile.. I might just have the thing for you then.

This is my pride and joy currently, no it won't help you kill ubers in 0.0001 secs, you got totem explode abusing builds for that.

After 3 semi okeyish league starters I still wasn't quite satisfied and really wanted to play something that can handle my hectic lifestyle and save my old aging wrists.

Ok the build breakdown is as follows - we use Vortex with Ignite Proliferation to make our Ignites proliferate when inflicted ( better then bereks on kill which is too slow for what we need).

Next, we use vortex to spread ignite while walking with Shaper of Flames from Elementalist - pretty much wiping all thrash even in t16 maps. That thrash chain ignites everything around it (yes i know only strongest instance applies and it doesn't stack) but the build literally can clear heavy juiced t16 screen in 2 secs and strangler rares are usually at half hp by then - cast arcanist with punishment / frost bomb / desecrate and they pretty much die, you don't even have to fight them just run unless they are some really stronger rare they will die due to punishment and ignite.

DPS numbers in POB don't really show how well this build clears and unfortunately my PC is potato so it will be impossible to show but I will try to capture some footage for you guys if I manage.

Build has 72 / 74 unbuffed block, with rumis I hit 78% max attack and 75% spell block without Glancing Blows with shield I bought today which was 3 divs. Helmet I also bought for 3 divs today, but other than that my gear sucked till today for past week and was still doing red maps comfortably with 4L and with extra shitty gear as this build upgrades as I go along and develop it.

We don't have strong % es on recovery but its irrelevant due to not using galvanic blows, you can see unbuffed POB shows 250k ehp without any guard skills or buffs. I used a self crafted shield also in PoB that had crucible tree, unfortunately this one corrupted doesn't, anyone knows if I can put crucible trees on corrupted items and how do I do it if possible????

Anyway, build is mega fun - just run around and everything dies, some map bossess and ultra tanky rares take some time (semi juiced minotaur is about 1 minute fight) but you pretty much never lose ES during it - and if you do ever lose ES and start losing HP just press Temporal Rift and you are back full usually.

We got Pyroclasp for 27% phys taken as elemental due to chilling and shocking enemies constantly - plus some 70-ish% phys dmg reduction and last but not least.... 1% evade chance xD

Death walk leeches around 600 ES per SEC and we got 90ish ES regen from Fenumurs Shroud chest, which also reduced enemies dmg by 10% together with Debilitate from Punishment by another additional 10% less which applies to enemies even after blocked hits.Build is pretty straightforward, there ain't that many buttons to click, sometimes I use manual desecrate + spell cascade to create field infront of me leading up to pack of mobs so as they rush me i explode corpses going to them and once you get rid of first white mob everything dies so easily, the more mobs the better, really wish my PC wasn't dogshit so I could show how the build operates smoothly because DPS doesn't seem like 100k at all xD

Leveling is super easy, just get generic spells until lvl 28 then get vortex + decay + swift affliction + energy leech on lvl 38 and you will demolish the game just by walking xp bar will be filling halfway thorugh each zone.

If you can spare 10-20c for abberath hoves even better, they are perfect until lvl 70 and switch to Bubonic Trail.

Rest of the items are literall dogshit, 20c per item maximum, 1 additional curse anvil is like 5-15c, try to get 13% + block, shield would be tricky to replace but could easily get a better one with some crafting and crucible skill trees - i'm trying to craft 2 atm but bought this one today as placeholder to max out all blocks.

Its still an ongoing experiment so any suggestions are welcomed, i'm dead broke now so won't be doing any major updates unless I drop a mirror suddently (a man can dream) but if you try this out you will have a blast.

I was amazed at how well the "leveling" build preformed so just decided to take it like it is to the endgame xd working good so far haha.

Hope you have fun if you try this out guys, its a blast
