Forbidden Rite is one of my favorite skills so naturally I wanted to try out the new transfigured gem which scales damage based on ES. Initially I tried the Graven's secret maven belt tech but found it to be squishy. Without Graven's secret + searing purity, you need Shav's + lots of ES and life recovery.

​

The main idea of the build is to stack Int/ES/Mana through Hierophant Mana to ES conversion and other sources of it from items/watcher's eye. Damage comes from forbidden rite flat damage + Ralakesh + power charge stacking + curse stacking with Anathema. Proccing curses is easy with Cast when damage taken and I found it to have very good uptime. For mapping you can run explodey cluster jewel and it feels very satisfying to map with.

​

For defenses - we stack fair chunk of ES (12k), aegis aurora for recovery on block, 85 max res, 76 chaos res, ES leech, 4 endurance charge + 30k armor with Radiant faith jewel, 75/75 block + Glancing blows, Reduced elemental damage taken from flasks. You can easily get crit immunity as well if needed. I've killed all ubers with this build and it mainly struggles against Uber Uber Elder since Shaper cannot be cursed during invuln phase and he penetrates all of our defenses and you can easily get killed by balls if you are not careful. I also did some limit testing and with curses + molten shell + frost shield + crit immunity you can tank most of the things easily.

I've killed Uber Maven and Uber Uber elder but I am not skilled enough to do them deathless so didn't bother uploading. I will eventually try and min max this character but let me know if you have any other ideas for this skill gem.
