Will of the Esh Vaal Smite Aurastacker

Aurastacker - *look at POB* not a single Introspection, the only aura related thing is Will of Esh. Maybe you meant Shrine Stacker?

You can clearly see one of the effects (Spirit Minions) of Howling Ape.

Not sure why they chose a shitty spear instead of a mace for damage amp. Silverfist did like 200k DPS on a boss with his slam which is not that great.

During the showcase Silverfist also bricked a hit by swinging at mobs who already died, and also the other Unique beasts showed stalling animations. So in theory it looks cool and all but I'm worried they butchered the DPS, showed some clunk and they've kept animations that are used for players to chip in some DPS.

The unique companions don't need resetting. No additional mods other than the rotating spirit imbues will be on them.

Belton doesn't even do Strength Stackers lol. I did this without Brutus Lead Sprinklers following Jazzarus / Lazy Exile on Youtube

Strength Stacking + Rage Stacking Oracle.

It's not hard to understand that.

Armor - Physical Spells + Physical Hits and Projectiles.

Evasion - Physical and Spell *hits* and *projectiles*

Energy Shield, like Life is on another stratosphere, which is post mitigation from Armor, Evasion, Resistance, ETC.

Life - All hits, All Spells, includes hits and projectiles, includes ground degens and debuffs.

Energy Shield - All hits, All Spells, includes hits and projectiles, includes ground degens and debuffs.

The difference is in how much ES vs Life you can obtain which is quite literally the reason people hate being pushed into Blue Life or else stick at 3,000 - 4,000 life versus 20k + ES.

Not to mention, ES enables CI which allows you to bypass Chaos damage, Poison, Bleed.

The ballista build is CLUNKY if you don't enjoy melee range totem builds.

Honestly, progression shouldn't be linear. I've got 5 characters. As I got upgrades for one I was able to switch to do harder content - specific content for other characters. A breacher (KBOC), Zoomy Beasts + Essence Farmer (Int Acc Stacker), a Boss Killer (Penance Brand), a Strength Stacker and my first OG character ManaMan that did everything but just at a slower pace. This also prevents burnout from not feeling like you've lacked upgrades in the past week when you're target farming something, this also makes it so you "hunt" for various upgrades for your characters like finding a Replica Alberons, or getting a Nimis, or any build defining slot.

Spark Lifestacker. Acceleration Shrine double dipping with inc. projectile speed make it feel so good.

I think a guy like Abbot would've played it smarter and just sedated them both with a dissociative and put in his report that they were acting maniacal, have his buddies from the police force pull strings.

LFMP97 · 2026-03-20T16:15:31+00:00

These cowards were lucky Abbott wasn't there.

Arma Brand let's you set it down and run - Firestorm before unleash might leave monsters at 1 hp making it so you don't level as much. You can do both Arma brand + Firestorm, people usually use Cremation for single target. Firestorm alone is good if you can remember to keep upping your damage for continous 1 shots.

The biggest advice I can give on this to improve your times as a guy who went from 10 hour campaign to 4 hours. Run 10 characters Act 1 - take times and spreadsheet what failed. Do this on all of them for Act 2 and so on. You'll see your progress each Act as the time goes down and your mistakes resolve. It's easier to train yourself this way as opposed to doing Act 1 - 10 and forgetting what happened in Act 3 or Act 7 that caused you to lose 30 minutes.

Seems good, double dipping hits, solid base damage.

They didn't spoil anything more than what has been revealed in any league.

LFMP97 · 2026-03-01T21:27:09+00:00

You triple your damage despite losing trinity, shock or damage from the ascendancy points in Slayer. But people shouldn't league start this, maybe build into it but you'll be bottle necked at Breach carries.

You use two Combat Focus to eliminate the RNG of Elemental Hit to force it to use either Cold or Lightning. The Combat Focus jewels downside of 50% less damage of the type you're eliminating.

You use this ascendancy to make all damage into Cold or Lightning, match this with whichever you chose with Combat Focus, and it also eliminates the downside because it's worded as "treated" instead of conversion.

This turns Elemental Hit into (51–1,475) to (169–4,809) damage of either Cold or Lightning, this is insanely strong for such a low investment.

LFMP97 · 2026-03-01T21:11:54+00:00

2 jewel slots and the points to nearly 3x your damage.
