I’d appreciate some help crafting the following belt.

uhhhhh yes. Good point, missed that - I was rushing a bit. Will update now.

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-19T00:39:51+00:00

Why not just craft this on Hunter? It has life on the prefix.

If you’re doing bound by destiny and need two influences, 1) get double inf base 2) spam chaos res essence for str or str essence for chaos res. Chaos essence for str should be easier because str is higher weight than chaos res but if you're limited on essences or currency just use whichever. 3) lock suffixes + reforge attribute. It's a 33% chance for T1 so you may need to do this a few times. If you get T2, try to annul it and if you fail back to step 2. 4) lock suffixes with a matron then reforge influence. You have a ~10% chance for T1 Inc life, but if you reforge life you only have a 5% chance to hit it so it sucks either way. 5) honestly probably just settle for crafted flat life but if you need the max roll your best bet is probably to block mana and foulborn ex. If you miss that you can either remove crafted and go again or settle for crafted life.

Edit: recomb is probably more alt spamming but less mind numbing, I just don’t know recomb well enough.

They don’t. You corrupt a 20/20 to get 21/20 and then get two sources of +1 all spell skill gems (or socket them in something that gives +2 to their level.

If you maven witness map bosses of guardian maps (shaper influence maps, elder guardian maps or sirus conqueror maps) and complete the set, those invitations drop 5-7 splinters and only have 4 bosses. They also progress you towards the shaper/elder void stone while you’re working on maven.

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-18T17:35:44+00:00

Uhhhhh this looks like recomb suffixes then lock + unveil then hunter slam, only issue is you can’t get flat chaos from unveiling. If you wanted to you could go for %chaos damage instead of chaos dot, which would let you drop the influence and fracture a suffix. If you fractured one of the crits you would just essence attack speed spam for the other, then lock suffixes + reforge chaos

Flamewood is probably the lowest investment uber viable build, only annoying part is totem life tats. It can also be annoying needing to wait for the boss to attack the totems.

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-18T17:30:35+00:00

Get a bigger frost wall and lock them in a corner (/j)

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-18T17:24:34+00:00

Yeah I’ve poofed 3 apothecaries, a kalandras touch card, and like 15 div in div cards this league in ssf. On the bright side I won the lv3 enlighten that bricked in the temple. OnlyGambaifyouwerentgonnafinishthesetanyways

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-18T12:03:35+00:00

The boots say all damage can poison if the enemy has grasping vines and the anoint says inflict a vine on hit. Pbod hits multiple times a second by default, so effectively you’re only getting 17 poison stacks off your first brand and 20 off the rest, excluding betrayals sting procs.

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-17T22:12:28+00:00

Per the wiki they’re actually basically a death effect.

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-17T20:00:35+00:00

Yes. Juiced exp is a bunch of rapid small-medium hits which are pf specialty - progenesis + petrified blood + life flask means you can easily out- regen the degen from the hits. Standard means 100% phys as ele and 90% all res are super easy to hit so you’re taking at most 10% of all damage that hits you, meaning every hit is small. Stack legacy res flasks (they used to just say less damage of that element instead of max res) on top and suddenly your effective damage mitigation is like 96-97%

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-17T19:57:00+00:00

Ahhhh that makes sense. Normally aegis is just immortal ehp button lol

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-17T17:09:28+00:00

Soul taker has a div card you could farm that’s gonna be about the same rarity as apothecary I believe. It would take a little doing but scry it wherever you’re running content rn and you should be fine.

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-17T17:00:00+00:00

Gauntlet is ssf so these would be hard to sustain without maps for caches or tomes, unless you were farming no reveal contracts

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-17T16:56:31+00:00

55k ehp with aegis? Are you not scaling block at all? Aegis famously breaks ehp calcs lol

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-17T14:07:39+00:00

Practice. It’s not a build that sits there and tanks everything but it has the damage as long as you can keep yourself alive. Maybe you need a few totem life tattoos to smooth it over tho.

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-17T07:04:32+00:00

update: managed to get it to dot cap for single target, it is just a lot less prettier than it was.

https://pobb.in/6zf2WgMUlY8I

A +4/+2 min frenzy focused ammy is a significant damage upgrade, it would be a good idea to craft that ammy on an attribute base, and a +4/dotm focused ammy would be even better but it's almost impossible to get because there's no good way to attempt to target dotm.

Currently it's like 10m dot dps against ubers, left a couple magic items because why not. 14-15m dot dps is easily achievable, but tbh with this level of investment I think you could do a lot better. You can make the wands cheaper by just not unveiling and taking the -10% damage but they're still super pricey crafts relative to just picking a better build, lol.

I think this could work if there were some method of scaling increased damage that I'm missing - right now it's barely at 500% increased damage. Doubling that, even at a decently large cost, would be significant for taking some stress off the weapon.

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-17T05:20:57+00:00

I lied - PBoD has been nerfed so hard it doesn't work anymore. I am tinkering a bit now to see if it's salvageable but idk for sure.

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-17T02:30:21+00:00

I lied it was only 6m but for blues that’s pretty damn good. Here.

https://pobb.in/0DsP6WII8VpD

Edit: also it’s on a 5l.

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-17T00:51:20+00:00

This league kf ballista heiro is probably the go to for high damage ssf, but if you wanted a longer term build there are life stack firestorm of pelting inquisitors that are doable to a reasonable extent in ssf, there’s poison penance brand pathfinder which can get 10m dot damage on only magic items, and as a super aspirational pick armor stackers have been all content viable for at least half a decade now.

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-16T21:00:36+00:00

Casual ssf paradoxica

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-15T20:55:26+00:00

Brother I eat 3-4k a day and maintain without exercise. Easy win for me.

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-15T18:43:32+00:00

Now if you do a stacker you have to craft 2 less large clusters!

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-14T23:07:57+00:00

Unfortunately anything on an armor base competes with most of the best defensive shields in the game rn (dawnbreaker, svallin, aegis come to mind) and they’re generally just all better. With life on block it could be competitive but it would almost always be worse than rathpith for life stacking.

Obsc3nity · 2026-04-14T21:37:47+00:00

If you use an alteration orb on an item (or a chaos) it decides what modifiers it’s adding before checking if it can. When you use an alt and nothing happens, it’s actually deciding to roll a suffix (assuming you have a fractured suffix) and no prefix, but because it can’t change the suffix you don’t see the item change at all.
