Hydrosphere is truly one of the most powerful skills in the game, and I knew in order to prove the doubters wrong, I had to take it to the next level! The multiple scaling vectors of cast/pulse speed, big base damage, built in conversion, built in exposure, and full uptime totem-like damage allow it to shine in ways many skills cannot. (GGG pls no nerf) Most importantly, I did all this for less than 100 divines! We dont even have a watcher's eye. The rares are just cheaply crafted trash to fill out some dex/str/fire res and a little bit of damage. There is SO much more that could improve this build but... one you see the showcase, you'll see why we dont need to!

In this build I truly sacrifice all defenses to make a PURE zhp uber bosser, excelling at those fights that dont have tons of phases and degens (uber sirus = no go). Uber Maven, Uber Exarch and Uber Eater can easily be farmed with this build. So, how do we get there? MORE multipliers! This build has almost 1,300% more damage included from a bunch of different sources, beginning with the diallas chest. Scaling cast speed, pulse frequency, triple damage and more allow us to reach absurd heights in the billions. Actual DPS is hard to estimate due to assassin buffs being partial uptime, but current PoB estimate while casting is around 1.9-2.3 billion dps. We dont even care to wait for the Uber boss damage grace period to expire to get our damage in.

This video is a showcase of what my favorite skill in the game is truly capable of. I hope you enjoy!

EDIT: Hilarious error included here. For the last few kills I tested out using eldritch battery (which disables inspiration since you dont spend mana) and then i forgot to change inspiration to a new gem. Some of the kills in the video are on a 5 link LOL oops. If you use EB, dont use inspiration!
