**8-9 Aura, Culling strike, double totem, 411 IIR 56 IIQ**



Inspired by this post : http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/578289



I would like to thanks User Schmeelk for giving us the idea behind this and proving it was possible.



Warning: ------No DPS!!!------



-Disclaimer

This build is extremely hard to achieve and no one should level a character with this build. The only reason I made it is because I had a Lvl 75 Witch with a free respec available. This build will cost a ton of exalted, and is only intended for End Game content in a party.

-Pro & Con-



Spoiler

Pro:

Easy to play.

You will never pay to join a map group.

People will most likely enjoy your presence online and will add you to their friend list.

Very loot, much IIR, Wow!

Con:

No dps source at all.

Gameplay consist of staying behind dropping totem and identifying item.

You are still a squishy.

Build is mostly effective with non caster party.





-Why should you play support?-



Spoiler Personally, I think that support in a Hack and Slash game is a really fun thing to do; your contribution to the group is incredibly important even if you mostly just stand behind and cast totem. People will pick you up to run maps without a fee. This is ''the'' class that will be in the highest demand, because everyone builds their character thinking of soloing and partying. This build is only for Party.



-Talent Tree-

-Gears-



Spoiler



So here's my current gear:

Spoiler

Explication of gear choice:

Spoiler As we tried to fool around with the talent tree, we found out that, for a 7-8 aura character, the best would be to go ES for survival, since your life will be reduced and your mana will almost always be empty. This is the reason why Shavronne was, sadly, a must for this build. We know a Shavronne is a bit expensive, but at least with this piece you are almost sure to never die - when I have Discipline on, I have around 4.7k of ES.



Alpha's Howl and Prism Guardian are very important and are the base of this build. Unless people want an explanation, I feel like these two items are pretty self-explanatory.



Trinket: Since the goal was to have the best IIR/IIQ, Andarius was the only choice here, since nothing compares to it. Now, when you look at the tree you will notice that it doesn't give a lot of base stats, so the amulet had no choice but to be an Astramentis - this helps max lvl every aura you have.



Auraseize is also in this build, mostly for its IIR which is incredibly huge.



Wondertrap: When running a low life build, there's almost no reason to not have Wondertrap since the +100 IIR is really a game changer - here's it's not even a question.



Perandus Blazon: The only belt in game with IIQ and bonuses to all stats is going to help to max the auras :P



And finally, my personal addition to this build: Heartbreaker! So the idea here is that you want to have Culling Strike running on your ''killing attack'' to make the whole party benefit from your incredible IIR IIQ. Heartbreaker will give Culling Strike to your spells and therefore to your Spell Totem, which has the result of making this build super safe for you while you stand behind your allies boosting their survivability and DPS. You will also have to chain some Electric Arcs all over the place, making sure you get all the killing blows. This is also the reason why this build rolls Dual Totem.



So as you can see, 100% unique items.



This is an extremely gear-centric build, so I should emphasize that this is not for new players. Do not try this at home, heehee.So here's my current gear:Explication of gear choice:

Spoiler Here's a screenshot of me before doing map with friend, showing the ES and the aura, to notice sadly on this picture i also have my friend aura, sorry about that:



More to come soon.

-Upgrade & tweaking to come-



Spoiler We are currently tweaking the tree to drop double curse since the character stand mostly behind and that now people use a lot more curse on hit etc.

Also working on a conduit with deodre's flask. Update to come.
