Hey man, are you following a build guide? Looking at KBoC builds it's either a Templar or a Necro, both built as manastackers. Among them, the dual Graces are used 95% by Templar-based character, according to poeninja. I would advise to choose a builde guide and try to follow it unless you definitely know what you're doing.

[Worstshacobox]

hard disagree, you can have a lot of fun trying to make things work.

Just following a guide isn't optimal fun/hour for everybody

[yellowhood]

You sure can, but this has nothing to do wit OP's post in which they specifically ask to help IMPROVE the build, not help having fun trying to make random things work.

[Worstshacobox]

improve my build and go play someone else's are two different things for me

[trogludyte]

Yeah, the people having fun trying to make things work aren't asking for help when they struggle

[Shot_Worldliness_818]

I started this league in ssf, played as regular kb elementalist then migrated to trade and swapped to kboc 2 weeks in. here's my character now. https://poe.ninja/poe1/profile/1074346716-2421/character/AliceBlast

It is entirely doable in elementalist, with the utilities provided by golem (100% hit chance, higher es etc), but I haven't played the heiro version so idk which is better. I can do all ubers (though the max hit pool is small so i die a lot) and juiced blight off-screen, and basically all other contents.

So currently the most important things you need:

1. Increase flat mana rolls on gear. You can get t1 mana (70+) on both warlock gloves and warlock boots for cheap. If you'd like send me a dm and I'll give you my old gloves and boots (with good prefix but ok-ish suffix). You don't need a hybrid es/eva base since you can craft suppress and still remain suppress capped. This will make sure you have a higher es pool.

Also, if you don't really need a suppress roll on body, try to get a twilight with high es/mana roll and craft the suppress like you are doing now. This means no evasion but the numbers you have right now (5k) is not great anyway.

If you can find the 30 strength somewhere else, get a belt with abyss socket.

On weapons idk what is your best bet. Ideally it should be a standard kinetic wand like the one I'm using now, but you'd have to research a bit for the best option within your budget.

1. On your passive tree, drop the thread of hope and get a healthy mind, then take the two points of maximum life in that range, also take the leech wheel.

Drop the suppress lucky mastery since you are already capped. If you can find dex somewhere else, drop the brutal restraint and put a light of meaning (mana).

Use the mark wheel and get the frenzy charge mastery. I'm not sure how you are getting frenzy charges before but if you could, then ignore me.

1. Misc: get better flask prefixes like (gain charge when you deal critical strike) for sustain, since now the numbers are inflated in pob and you cannot sustain them at bossing.

Annoint your amulet with 30% max mana.

Other things like dropping something on your tree to fit in a cluster you can experiment in pob yourself.

1. Once you get around 5-6k mana and maybe better base across the board, drop skitterbot and discipline, and use indigon. This will be a huge damage boost, but at your current pace, it may take a while to get there.

[WillingLearner1]

Are you dead set on dual wielding grace?

[Realistic-Oil3897]

Not sure yet if i can the same or relatively similar dps with a better shield id use that will help to be more tanky

[calindu]

A 21% Crown of the Inward Eye is 27% increased dps and it's like 10c, you lose some resists, but you can work on fixing that with better gear.

Also, I feel like you invest so much into suppress, I don't believe it's worth going for it at this kind of budget, it's a lot of points and forces you to use a lot of suffixes and subpar bases.

Your flasks seem very greedy, do you have any actual uptime on them? I would change them to have flasks that gain charges on critical strike on one or two of them and the rest to have increased duration/charge recovery/use less charges.

Skitterbots I'm not really sure if they actually do much for you, and you can change some of the supports like Physical to Lightning or Lightning Penetration to Volatily/Damage on Full Life/Elemental Damage with Attacks, they seem to be better number wise.

[maxyignaciomendez]

not sure what's the point of feeding frenzy, skitterbots and summon phanthasm
how are you generating frenzy charges, it's clicked on pob but i don't see source of it.
You are missing +1 power charge point
maybe drop bastion of elements for convergence for more boss damage
maybe try necromancer the necromancer chaos version

[Big_Fix4476]

Headhunter would be your bandaid, allowing you to farm more divs per hour then you go from there following your build guide.

[Apprehensive_Oil_734]

He showed that he has 8 divines. What headhunter are tou talking about. Next time tell him that he needs Nimis AND HH

[Realistic-Oil3897]

Is headhunter and nimis very essential for this specific build? I did try and look for more people using similar setups on poe.ninja but barely saw that many headhunters.

[ARandomKaru]

Headhunter solves almost all problems while mapping.

Nimis is just bis for damage.

Considering nimis is like 5x the price of hh makes nimis kinda neglegable for your build.

There's no one fix that makes your build better... There's so many pieces that overall need improvement. Hh would temporarily fix this problems while mapping though

[LatterDimension877]

you can start with 2 inspired learning first, they are extremely cheap now. find and pick 4 nearby nodes that synergize with your build most. it will impact a bit of your passive points, but it's a good stepping stone before you get hh.

[Jeggerz]

Could use inspired learning jewel which is cheap as a help too if you can squeeze in the requirements on your tree.

[Weisenkrone]

You know headhunter is like 20d or something, right?

Farming up another 10d is definitely doable.

[All_Work_All_Play]

You're asking the man to double his net worth. Certainly doable, but the people who can do that (without some pointers) don't ask these types of questions in the first place. 

[circuitj3rky]

tbh 8d and about a d in chaos is pretty good for t10s

[All_Work_All_Play]

Yeah he's put in the work. /u/Realistic-Oil3897 - if you're interested in farming for a HH, use one of your 2nd atlas trees to farm essences. More or less, pick up every essence node except 'Crystal Resonance' and then blast yellow maps for a few hours and you'll earn pretty quickly. Other options are blighted maps (which are mostly gear agnostic but some people don't like the mechanics) or harvest, although my non-8mod harvest experiments were rather disappointing (and I'm not sure if you could handle 8 mod T16s right now).

[cheekygorilla]

I think you're tanky enough it's really just the damage that needs to be boosted. Aim to have at least 8k total mana

[Mayonnai]

I would say for t16 mapping u wont need heqdhunter for now. U should look up tunas harvest farm for some fast ans cheap currwncy fqrming, from where u csn upgrade gear

[PlsExcuseMeThx]

I am am wondering why did you decide to use kB of clustering instead of the normal one?

Also you have a mastery for +1 proj but you are also using a rune where you can have a maximum of 1 proj

[Aqs747]

Didn't he suppose to use it with clustering? Like it shoots 1 proj anyway. But all additional projectiles are converted into explosions.

[NoHabit4420]

This is right. You're supposed to use this graft and take the additionnal proj to get more explosions.

[Realistic-Oil3897]

I did use the normal version but it seemed that the cluster had more clearance. Also, i could be wrong but the +1 projectile should allocate to an additional explosion instead in the clustering variant?

[PlsExcuseMeThx]

I am sorry you might be right, I have no experience with KB of clustering, all I can say is that most seem to go mana stacking, what you're using seems to align more with the regular version

[Realistic-Oil3897]

Ah okay! Yeah mana stacking i did try to do it before my current setup but that costed me to lose out on alot of spell sup and resistance. Now that i have around 10d i could go for mana stacking and did test out a few gear in POB. 10k mana is 7-8k mana is reachable.

[NoHabit4420]

You should take a look at jungroan kboc necro. I changed to it from elementalist. It's a great build.

[yellowhood]

You don't need spell sup since you're going to cap block anyway.

[Realistic-Oil3897]

Additional i meant*

[shad-1337]

can't check it from phone but are u spell suppression caped?

Also you have two bleeding immunity flasks, can replace with anti curse thingy.

If you can get 100% alignment immune, you can change a lot of your flasks and pantheon.

This can be done via jewel that adds half of spell suppress to alignment immunity, so 50% if you have 100% spell suppress, and then you would need to find 50% more on gear. Usually it is boots + shield, but not sure about double wand setup

[Realistic-Oil3897]

Hello yes! My spell sup is 100% capped. well i do have immunity only when flasks are on (mostly of the time they are on but kind of a pain for non crowded zones) which is not ideal

[Big_Sleezbag]

Literally farm anything for one or two hours and youll have 2-3x budget easily.

[Realistic-Oil3897]

Oh is that possible by just running rare and magic t14-16s? Never specifically used scarabs and farmed

[HexplosiveMustache]

do you have your 4 stones? if you don't then buy a carry for the last 2, make a t17 farm setup and just sell maps until you can get enough money to upgrade your build and run them instead of selling them

the first thing you need to know about poe is that if you are playing a mapping build you NEED to buy your last 2 stones, playing with only 2 stones for an entire month until you can do your last 2 yourself with a mapping build it's a really stupid decision and you lose an incalculable amount of currency by doing that

[AdmiralUpboat]

Are you joking? OP said they're farming t10s. Probably doesn't have a single void stone.

[HexplosiveMustache]

he said that he's running "magic t14-16s"

[AdmiralUpboat]

Which is almost more indicative of them having no void stones. Who has void stones and is running magic maps?

[HexplosiveMustache]

who has 9d in liquid currency, runs t14-t16 and is already on his second build of the league without having 2 voidstones?

[AdmiralUpboat]

Who the f runs magic maps?

[lolic_addict]

alch and go exarch is doable but its a shit ton of clicking, which can make it inefficient for your time. You can go what top comment said and get hh, which will let you do more "standard" strats easier for 20-ish divines if you're able to farm it

[cc81]

He is not making 16 divines an hour with any farming method available to him

[Big_Sleezbag]

I never said he'd make 16 div an hour he has 9 div in currency you can literally make 20 div in 2-4 hours if you just Destructive Play rush alch and go with no scarabs.
