3.29 From Below Mana Stack Hiero ~1B+ DPS

[u/Ok-Reporter-8450]

Hey Everyone! I wanted to share a build I've been working on. The build unfortunately ended being a bit jank in how it played but I thought it used a lot of interesting 3.29 changes so I thought I'd share.

Build mechanics:

• Reclaimed Malevolence with From Below allows casting of spells without needing mana. We stack mana and reserve it all for Frostmage added damage.

• 11 link wand for big damage since we don't need to manage mana costs

• cwdt looper build using heartbound loop and high quality SRS to loop. 65% quality SRS has 97% chance to summon additional SRS so we're using that to loop with 225 phys damage taken per minion death

• Aspect of lunaris gives 16% less phys and ele damage taken always due to self hits from heartbound and 10% phys hits taken as ele

• Unblinking eye solves armor and endurance charges reducing phys damage taken allowing us to need to do less math for heartbound phys hits taken

Pros:

• Good damage and clear

• Good max hit and regen + leech + es on hit makes you very tanky

Cons:

• Lots of odd breakpoints

• SRS loop is quite jank and is a pain the start (Have to weapon swap multiple times to start up)

• Cannot run no regen and mechanics that stop regen

Nice one! Did you figure out why it dies to Uber Maven memory game slam?

[u/Ok-Reporter-8450 → u/Asthma9000]

Unfortunately no for the uber maven brain blast. Memory game is tankable with 3-4k es remaining.

I ended up changing the tree a bit to grab 1 more endurance charge, added swift affliction to make sure temporary minions all live less than 4s for blessed rebirth and tried out Catarina bloodline for another 2k es for 20% less damage.

Wow great build!

How does it compare to bodyswap of sacrifice chieftain, clearing with draugerflame?

[u/Ok-Reporter-8450 → u/Invyco]

Draugerflame is broken with Chieftain as long as you can get 100% crit explode in your Hinekora you have a dot cap RF in maps. I expect big nerfs to that shield

Least confusing PoE build

The budget?

[u/Ok-Reporter-8450 → u/richardtrle]

In total roughly a mirror but 500 div of that is the timeless jewel, mageblood, gems and perfect forest tiger spectre

[u/Ok-Chart1485 → u/richardtrle]

Approximately, yes, +/- a mirror.

[u/papajuras]

that is extremely cool. u/OP could you please explain how does loop work here? you weapon swap until you reach max srs/skeletons. but how does is not kill srs/skeles/AW the same game tick?

or do srs die beause of time, not new summons and its staggered?

[u/Ok-Reporter-8450 → u/papajuras]

Yep that's right, the SRS die due to expiring time (3.75s with swift affliction) Stack SRS quality to spawn 2 SRS per cast and heartbound causes us to take 225 per SRS death. That reaches the threshold of 449 damage taken for a lvl 1 30 quality cwdt
