NOTE: This is an expensive build in general (from a 10ex budget and more, my gear is much more) - BUT IT'S WORTH IT!!!! The best build I have ever played and I did PP Indigon in the past 3 leagues that was way more expensive and much less powerful (but more tanky with the Zerphi's that is no longer good).



I have added a PoB for a cheap (less than 5ex) budget with really cheap and mid-level gear for many that have asked.



IMy game skills are not that good as I played PP Indigon for the past three leagues so just take the basic ideas from the videos.

This build got nice clear speed, but not as a QoTF archer

[+] Very good Defenses

[+] Good clear Speed

[+] Unlimited "mana"

[+] Fun to Play

[-] Build is not cheap for very high DPS

[-] If you want to do elemental reflect you lose DPS for choosing a witch

[-] You need to get used to BV playstyle

[-] Capping resists with good jewels can be hard, so you may need to loose some life or damage at the start



*With my current setup.



Build Mechanics



We need one Item that has an Aspect of the spider:



You will probably make it on an amulet.



The amulet does not have to have anything but life and crit multiplier and 2 open suffixes, for crafting Aspect of the spider and Vaal pact craft.



Blade vortex is a physical spell, we need to convert it to lightning, we do that with 3 items:



You don't need the double Wrath jewel, conversion will do.



As power charges makes our DPS insane with 2 Shimmerons



We need to have power charger at most times, to to that, we use the support gem:

And also on the X I use this before bosses for maximum charge up:





P.S

As we are playing with Slayer leech, the damage from the Shimmerons is not an issue.



To have unlimited casting, one of the most BV builds biggest problem, I use this chest:



We take eldrich battery and we can cast for a long time without leeching, reserve all of our mana, and the chest may not have life, but the 10% reduced damage taken is life, on the top of the fact that Aspect of the spider will affect all that you can see in your screen. Also, it boosts up our DPS by a lot.

NOTE: My gear is very high level, but I will explain what you can use on a more modest budget that will still allow you to complete all content.



Quick Text:

Crown of the tyrent

Shimmerons

Mark of the Shaper

Rare elder ring with warlord's mark

Fenumus' shroud

Rare Amulet with 2 open suffix for vaal pact on focus craft and Aspect of the spider

Command of the pit or rare gloves with life, resists (maybe physical conversion to lightning to use a penetration Wtcher's eye

Darkness enthroned or Rare stygian belt with life and resists

Stormcharger

SWAP for power charges and Whirling blades/Shield charge:

Prismatic eclipse + Jaws of agony



Gear Explained



This helmet is insane, with bleu socket it gives us 20% more DPS and a lot of life.



-





Get a good crit multi roll and you are all set.



-





This is our BiS, life and damage.



-





Any ring that will allow you to balance resists for the Wise oak flask will do, as long as it is an elder ring, Warlord's mark will be a nice QoL for you. Make sure that you have life and some resists.



-





On the amulet, you will want life, crit multi and 2 open suffixes for Aspect of the spider and crafted Vaal pact (people sell the craft for 2ex if you don't have the scorpion for the Aspect, the Vaal pact is common and cost 3c.



-





If you can cap and balance resists without a Stygian use this belt, much more DPS.



-





This is not a must, rare gloves with life and resists and conversion of physical to lightning craft will allow you to buy a cheap Wrath Watcher's eye for lightning penetration as well. Also, with one socket it's not that expensive and very good.



-





This seems wired, but it's the BiS for us unless you reach a level when money is not an issue, Get it maxed roll (very cheap) and try to get the lightning damage if you haven't killed recently for higher boss DPS (10% penetration will also work).



-





This is our MUST, and try to get vorici to white socket it, for swapping increased duration to conc effect (till then use Efficacy so it's bleu to bleu).



-



On your SWAP (when you press X), I use this to gain power charges and move long distances:

2nd, 4th and 5th Flasks: These are the DPS flasks, the Wise oak will work as long as you have your lightning resist highest. The Diamond flask must be immune to curse flask.



3th Flask: The zoom zoom flask, important for clear speed



1st Flask: I use unti-bleeding with panicked divine flask Jewels





The last three are a huge defensive and offensive boost but are more expensive. On the rare ones you will want life, crit multi, and ballance resists (get lightning damage to spells if possible or any increased that workd for us if you can afford it). The last three are a huge defensive and offensive boost but are more expensive. On the rare ones you will want life, crit multi, and ballance resists (get lightning damage to spells if possible or any increased that workd for us if you can afford it). Gem Links



6L: Blade vortex + Lightning penetration + controlled destraction + Physical to lightning + Power charge on crit + Efficasy or Increased duration if you have white socket / Conc effect for bosses



I use PCoC gen as it's not bad and a huge QoL for us

You can also use Inc AOE if you haven't taken the AOE nodes and remove Efficasy

If you play with 5L, remove PCoC and use orb of storms or corrupted Shimmeron to get power charges



4L: CWDT (1) + Immortal call + Vortex + Blood rage



TThis is our defensive setup, blood rage is for me being lazy to activate it myself



1L: Flame dash



On the helmet that must have a blue socket



2L-4L: Herald of Ice + Wrath



Herald of Ice is for clear speed and QoL, Wrath is a must here, choose your other links, I don't have them as I use gloves with 2 abyssal sockets

If you got more links you can put a Rallying cry to boost your damage



3L: CWDT (20) + Flame golem (20) + Blind (20)



This is also a QoL setup so I will not recast the golems



3L: Vaal righteous fire + Vaal grace + Increased duration



these are our nova skills, boosts out damage and defense : Blade vortex + Lightning penetration + controlled destraction + Physical to lightning + Power charge on crit + Efficasy or Increased duration if you have white socket / Conc effect for bosses: CWDT (1) + Immortal call + Vortex + Blood rage: Flame dash: Herald of Ice + Wrath: CWDT (20) + Flame golem (20) + Blind (20): Vaal righteous fire + Vaal grace + Increased duration Bandits

MUST: Eramir/Kill All (+2 Passives)

Pantheons

Must Major: Soul of Solaris (Best for this build IOM)

Recommended Minor: Soul of Garukhan (Bet for defense IMO). Passives



The passives are as follows:







After you take the path of the witch (uber lab points) this will be the tree at level 83 :



If you can afford two Might of the meek and Unnatural instinct jewels, this will be your level 93 tree with Inquisitor instead of a witch:



You start from the Scion and after you do uber lab you change the tree, I will give here three timelines.The passives are as follows: Lvl 63 ; Before Uber lab.After you take the path of the witch (uber lab points) this will be the tree at level 83 : Lvl 83 From here on take life nodesIf you can afford two Might of the meek and Unnatural instinct jewels, this will be your level 93 tree with Inquisitor instead of a witch: Lvl 93 Path of Building Paste Bin https://pastebin.com/FcKLJjgv - DPS is before culling strike, this is the optimal realistic gear set.



This is for a more budget build: https://pastebin.com/M7bjtCYa



This is when you got no money problems: https://pastebin.com/DACfDQ6P



This is the budget PoB: https://pastebin.com/yXpRPDHA DPS is with no shock included (and culling strike), you can shock to 50% monsters that have up to 12M life, so vs guardians it's about 25% more damage for a total of about 3.7M shaper DPS and with Vaal BV it's almost 6M shaper for 3 sec. Final Thoughts and Considerations

This is by far the most OP build I have ever played, charging up is easy, DPS on increased duration does all content EZ, I love it, hope you will too.



NOTE TO ALL:



I didn't do a build guide for some time, so I'm sorry for my English.
