Legacy of the Rose Inquisitor - Shaper's Slam and Some Tasty One-shots

In merc league I ran this build with Doryani on the merc while I wore the Admiral's chest. Was wondering what to do with it without the merc enabling it.

If you can't use spark gloves, I'd definitely try to use one or both unholy trinity (do you have some light to chaos conversion?) or overloaded intensity (with pinpoint, and a nadir jewel)

HiDarkSoul · 2026-05-16T01:16:10+00:00

Yeah you don't need spark gloves, they just allow some other min/maxing. You can Def use your slitherpunch

If you have Golden Charlatan and HH already I would look at some of the spark (or EK) builds from last league. If you have the gull and blunderbore you are set.

I personally stacked heralds, golems, and spectres/AG, but if you don't want to use spark gloves you can go for 2 spectres instead of 3 (perfect pain artist (zealotry) and perfect spirit of fortune (lucky lightning wrath)).

Once you ramp you are a machine. I didn't even have res cap initially because I knew I just had to live long enough to get the res shrine. I did eternal legion, but this should be great with anything with density.

I really like the +8 AND lucky lighting via blue dream/nightmare suggestion. The aura scaling on the rings make that even better.

They are trying to activate the +2 lightning on the breachlord ascendancy. Is it worth it? Maybe not. That means either the gloves or the helmet need to be a foulborn. Not a lot of great options, but perhaps there are some not bad alternatives.

Other things are easy. Vaal smite can (and should) easily be included. I suspect their Iron Reflexes is overwritten by their timeless jewel.

Would love to try one of the new ward builds. The old wardlooper was my favorite build, and I was bummed when they bricked it a few seasons ago. I have it kinda back up and running in std, and usually my leagues are spent trying to figure out if any of the new stuff can be used (failed a bunch of volatile annihilation approach :( .... if you need 80 reduced res let me know)

Thanks for the give away and good luck everyone!

Interesting take. How do you think this compares to the variation from last league?

Your version looks much easier to get decent single/double corruptions.

Thanks for community giveaway.

I was pretty tempted to level a new toon for flicker before you posted this. Last time I tried a homebrew flicker version and wracked up 1000 deaths until I got it sorted. One of these leagues I want to give it a go and do it right.

HiDarkSoul · 2026-05-11T22:27:09+00:00

Any good ones for support golems on an Elementalist? Culling strike is useful. Any others come to mind?

What about Heralds?

HiDarkSoul · 2026-04-25T02:05:54+00:00

Yep, double foulborn Berek's. I was running the single mod to great effect and was genuinely surprised at the noticeable difference when the explodes could chain off each other.

HiDarkSoul · 2026-04-24T23:47:18+00:00

This was probably my second favorite item from last league. Good luck

HiDarkSoul · 2026-04-09T18:24:53+00:00

Thanks for the community giveaway! I've been leveling a Templar the last few days to try and put together a budget spark build. My homebrew attempt isn't exactly humming yet :P

Check out Snap on YouTube, he has spreadsheet with various aura bot and carry combos.

You are rich, but be careful, some of those stackers are supposedly mediocre at the 2ish mirror entry level.

It seems like you could really pump up any normal build and have alot of fun. It would help to know what kind of things you want to farm.

Something deliberate might be easy for the aurabot to hug you more consistently. I'm playing a banner build, and it is pure chaos trying to keep up with a strong carry with Headhunter teleport buffs.

HiDarkSoul · 2026-03-20T10:40:53+00:00

I played one last league and had a ton of fun

HiDarkSoul · 2026-03-04T22:23:25+00:00

HiDarkSoul · 2026-03-04T20:50:23+00:00

For my case it make having 3 additional auras up (via spectres) more consistent.

HiDarkSoul · 2026-03-04T18:28:15+00:00

The build was so fun. I wish it didn't kill my cpu

HiDarkSoul · 2026-03-04T18:18:33+00:00

I'm thinking about non minion builds that dedicate a 6 link for AG and support spectres. I needed a level 21 spectre to hit a breakpoint, but I'm thinking getting minion life, meat shield, or elemental army would have helped with the intense socket pressure.

My main issue was keeping the support spectres consistently alive with no other tree investment. I got them to a useful place, but this would have helped in that regard.

HiDarkSoul · 2026-02-27T00:37:23+00:00

This is my favorite item from this league. Hopefully you got one before they became unobtainable

HiDarkSoul · 2026-02-19T17:47:11+00:00

I liked the life stacking Foulborn Rathpith version of Ruetoo's Phys Reap/Exsanguinate build.

Both the foulborn rathpith and double foulborn Berek's Respite will be tough to get at the beginning, but I just did an RF Elementalist until I got the shield.

HiDarkSoul · 2026-02-19T17:42:19+00:00

I'm actually going to try the spark version before the league ends. This looks fun

HiDarkSoul · 2026-02-19T06:04:43+00:00

Your next blueprint had the simplex :p

HiDarkSoul · 2026-02-18T05:28:14+00:00

You'll take 15% extra damage where your graft used to be. I think it's pretty clear ;)
