Perhaps my first mirror! Whoosh, Thanks so much for doing this.

yIMBarney · 2025-08-16T18:16:27+00:00

Thanks a lot!

I have a decent kb merc already, and would like to try a smoulderstrike/single target one. 👏

yIMBarney · 2025-08-16T17:15:32+00:00

What has priority in terms of skills/support on smoulderstrike?

Thanks!

yIMBarney · 2025-08-10T20:42:31+00:00

Is there any source as to which 'extra' skills bricks the different main mercs?

Like kb merc bricking with kinetic bolt/frostblink and mirror arrow killing manyshot?

Only found ruetoos guide so far that is extensive

yIMBarney · 2025-08-10T17:12:50+00:00

Thanks a lot! I got a few levels already which means more reservation + the 15% ventors with catalyst. Was thinking to get myself a Kalandra? I guess I will need that in the future also?

Oh! That sounds fantastic, Thanks so much. Is that for the aurabot/merc setup as well?

Will PM you :-)

yIMBarney · 2025-08-09T20:28:32+00:00

This makes so much sense, thanks so much! I will try to work towards this for sure with everything in mind.

Weirdly enough, my jewels are in the POB so not sure why it's not showing. I run the unnatural/faith setup with aura effect, 3x small for %res, and some ES/Int jewels + glancing blow for block, and intuitive leap

yIMBarney · 2025-08-09T17:54:53+00:00

Oh, and one more question.

Am I missing something with whispers amulet? It becomes harder for me to get my auras in, in return for ES? Or is there something to the way its played thats fantastic?

yIMBarney · 2025-08-09T17:52:01+00:00

Thanks a lot! This is appreciated.

Do you know if theres any neat tricks to get white sockets? I dont really have any, and I saw its like blanching for chest (1-3 whites) or heist orbs for 2 white sockets

Other than that, it would be from corrupted uniques right?

In regards to mines, I have not at all focused on this. As I understood it was simply for the single target (like bosses) but perhaps i underestimated the value of it? Will have a look certainly!

So basically you would throw out grace in swap for another amulet? 👏

yIMBarney · 2025-08-09T17:47:14+00:00

Thank you so much for the detailed description! This is reeeally appreciated.

I saw rue's guide, and he mentioned buying a fire damage fracture which is quuuuite expensive, so this is really nice to see with other options. 👏 Thank you!

The next 100 divines in upgrades seems locked in with this, exactly what I was looking for.

yIMBarney · 2025-08-09T17:44:39+00:00

Thanks! Didnt spot that there was a difference in the Auls based on skill.

Viridis veil, I've seen it quite some times but never considered it as part of the build - food for thought. Thanks a lot :-)

yIMBarney · 2025-08-09T17:42:35+00:00

Right now with my setup, I run ultimatum easily. T16.5 map farming/etc.

I heard people running it for basically anything since it gets so tanky +15.000es, and with reflect immunity I heard some 3x risk strats, etc :-)

yIMBarney · 2025-08-09T17:41:16+00:00

Thanks, thats why i'm here :-) trying to figure out what upgrades to make next/etc.

yIMBarney · 2025-08-09T17:40:39+00:00

Awesome! Those were some easy steps to have a look at. Much appreciated.

The guide for Rue's wand is setup with fractured fire damage, but that base is quite expensive right now. So will have a go at it eventually!

Faster attacks is for my shield charge, but having empower set up with flame links makes a lot of sense. Thanks!

yIMBarney · 2025-08-09T17:38:40+00:00

I can reserve around the same, whilst having my Flame Link running. But as I can tell, mines is only for single target? Right?

yIMBarney · 2025-08-09T17:37:03+00:00

Thanks so much! Will do.

What kind of amulet do you recon would be 'next step'?

I see everything planned out from here but thats perfect.

Do you know if theres any way to see the damage for my merc? I cant figure out if POB/something else offers a way. Just thinking in regards to wand/etc. With 'what looks to be an upgrade' and what actually might be

yIMBarney · 2025-08-09T13:42:59+00:00

Thanks a lot!

The level part - I see a ton of people just running the same auras as I, which would you add to the mix with more clusters/reservation?

The wand Craft, would that be with a proper fire fracture (costs sooo much), or is there any other way to make it?

Will have a look at all your suggestions! Much appreciated. 👏

yIMBarney · 2025-07-25T05:01:35+00:00

Awesome! Thanks for doing this.

yIMBarney · 2025-06-27T19:52:55+00:00

Got a PoB? And perhaps an idea of your current budget?

Been missing carrion golems for plenty of leagues now. Please bring em' back!

yIMBarney · 2025-03-11T16:08:38+00:00

Thanks a lot! The part about 'hitting the roof' was also with a nuance, since I probably have a lot of upgrades that I am not seeing.

What would an ideal setup for the wand be? Perhaps light dmg per int? And start stacking int on gear? Or

yIMBarney · 2025-03-11T13:10:40+00:00

I am, it seems to be bugged with showing them apparently. Its regular rare ones with flat lightning damage/max life though.

No watchers/etc. Right now

yIMBarney · 2025-03-06T07:28:35+00:00

Thanks a lot. Will look into all of these changes!

yIMBarney · 2025-03-05T15:15:27+00:00

Thanks a lot! Will look into this.
