PoE Atziri's Foible, Hierophant, Fire builds

&x200B; Archmage firestorm of pelting, can work on all rares, but foible is just really good. Can swap out Grace for whichever aura you want in there, but no offensive aura is particularly good, so I went with grace. Huge hp pool makes for some real nice max hits and solid recovery on all 3 different types of HP makes me think the build should feel pretty good to play.

Ever since the Timeless Jewel Chainbreaker Keystone rework last league (Grants 1 Rage regenerated for every 25 Mana Regeneration per second) I've wanted to make a mana-regen stacking character that takes advantage of nearly permanent berserk. This seems too challenging with available sources of flat mana per second, so mana stacking was the way I chose. Berserk favors attacks so Mind of the Council was a no brainer. However, not being able to regenerate mana because of Chainbreaker makes it hard to sustain typical Mind over Matter defenses, so I instead decided to make use of the Hiero

Thoughts Pros \-Decent Damage/Clear \-Very good EHP (Block) \-Simple gear choices (Uniques everywhere lol) \-Budget 10ish ex? Clusters easy to craft. Watchers Eye 2ex Cons \-Chaos bosses can kill you if not careful \-Slow ES sustain, if a lot of damage goes through block you die \-Low physical Resistance, can be one shotted by big phys hits. \-DPS listed is not accurate, probably more like 25-40% less depending on Manapool, easily stays below 50% though.

tldr: molten shell go boom for \~2M dps, generally invincible, and maximum jank I discovered an interesting interaction with Power of Purpose (PoP) awhile back, namely that any "Gain maximum mana as extra maximum energy shield" modifiers actually use the pre-conversion maximum mana (verified in game). This means mana stacking gives us both armour and energy shield. However, I couldn't figure out how to get reasonable damage out of the build... until this patch! The core of the build is to stack mana to get over 50k armour, to make maximum use of Molten Shell. Molten shell gets popped by atta

Been kicking around the idea Hierophants a lot in the past few months, but haven't really had anything spark yet. I'm liking this idea, and certainly have the funds to make it (the cluster jewels don't look like they'll be too pricey, and I've got most of the gear sorted). I look forward to when my connection to the servers isn't being shite, so I can get this character rolling (That AoE is going to feel juicy)
