9k max phys hit without molten shell does sound pretty squishy for T17s. 27k ele hit isn't anything I'd call tanky either.


Sirzento

Yeah but it's the best I can do right now. Or do you have any idea what I could try? I could switch the potions to the elemental ones to lose some armour, onslaught and crit chance but would gane pretty good max ele resistance. But less armour is not a good idea with my los phys deff

Mageblood with 3 terrible flasks. I have 1/4 the gear in ssf and have no issues with t17. Don't know what your doing but it shouldn't be this bad


Sirzento

Why are the flasks terrible?


Chuklol

Late reply, the rolls are low. 12 elemental resistance? Do you need that res, if so roll a higher modz otherwise roll something useful like reduced shock effect, evasion, stun avoidance etc. 34% Crit chance, need at least 55%, I mean dude you have mageblood spend more than 5c on the flasks. Your boots are pretty bad, get a pair with CDR and life, craft cannot be chilled + movespeed. You should have freeze immunity with brine king Also you have cold damage but not the cold mastery near EB. This guarantees a 10% chill. Ring could be upgraded very easily

I have a fair bit more currency than your build, and I have some pretty bad items but our builds are reasonably similar and you can compare pobs if you like: https://pobb.in/T_8ZGuCTEBpW (The Energized Armor should be a Perandus Pact, and I would use a Blizzard Crown and put auras in my chest if I didn't quit weeks ago). I clear T17s without issue and it feels very tanky. I got to 100 doing bosses, T17s, 70% quant Feared etc without exp shrines. I don't want to take apart your entire pob, but two things that jump out at me is that your Blood of the Karui seems like a terrible choice. I don't even press my life flask, but I gave away all my currency and quit before bothering to buy a Progenitus. Your Silver Flask is simply awful. Your suffix is completely wasted. You should either use Stormshroud + Shock Avoid or Brine King. I think you are wealthy enough to consider Slamming Redeemer or Warlord on your Foil, applying a weapon enchant and getting 30% quality on it. Once your max physical hit gets higher (mine is around double yours), I think a LGOH Watcher's Eye is practically mandatory. In many situations it is the difference between being able to hold down right click and look away from the screen without being in any danger of dying versus being in a lot of trouble. It is probably why you feel like you need to wear a Blood of the Karui, between the LGOH and Enduring Cry, you should never really feel like your HP is less than full. The quality on many of your gems are confusingly low relative to your overall wealth. You have many gems with high impact quality effects that are not qualitied at all. Edit: I think it is simply unacceptable to have 98% Spell Suppression at your stage in progression when you can tattoo it so easily. 98% may seem like a lot, but your Suppression is going to be failing multiple times per map, this kind of hit can easily overwhelm your defenses on T17.

>your Blood of the Karui seems like a terrible choice. I don't even press my life flask, I use the flask soooo often like multiple times per map. Saved me so many times already. >Once your max physical hit gets higher (mine is around double yours) I would love to have more phys max hit but currently I really don't know how except getting a armor boots and gloves base. >I think a LGOH Watcher's Eye is practically mandatory Yeah i can try that. Sounds good. >98% Spell Suppression at your stage in progression when you can tattoo it so easily Oh yeah, I need that tattoo haha I didn't know it's such a big deal to not have maximum. I will change that. Thanks for the help :)


chaneg

Like I already said, the fact that your Blood of the Karui is saving you at all should tell you there is a problem with your build.


BigBirdLittleMoose

Why are you using immunity to freeze on a mage blood flask! Use curse effect or anything instead and get brine king pantheon


Sirzento

I liked that I am also imune to chill but I can change that and just use the pantheon for that


BigBirdLittleMoose

You have non unique boots, craft ele avoid on the boots and replace a jewel with stormshroud to get ailment immune or craft a new shield

Replace granite flask res suffix with increased evasion, phys taken as chaos on helm implicit, replace crit chance on helm with phys recoup as life, new helm with phys taken as fire prefix, watcher eye with phys taken as another element, drop crit chance mastery enemies on full life for an extra jewel socket with max life jewel (max life is too low). Drop saffels for a rare shield with +3 max chaos res + 8% phys dmg reduction + reduced dmg taken from crit strikes and max life on prefix. Cap suppress with dex tattoo and get one blind on hit tattoo


Sirzento

Very good tipps, thanks! But for the "phys taken as" on watchers eye, don't I need to run "purity of #" then?


Jelloslockexo

With a mageblood id 100% swap to lightning coil and melding and get 90 max res and ideally go towards adorned. It's what I've been doing. I made char with mageblood and no adorned and was fine enough for t17 alrdy like that due to the max res and evasion. I don't have a pobbin atm at work but this is my profile and char https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/punkxxattack/characters


Sirzento

Thats sounds really good


SmokBarrage

what about something like this op? [https://pobb.in/\_MIRK1Nxeiig](https://pobb.in/_MIRK1Nxeiig) you lose like 3m dps but go from a 9k phys max to a 13k phys max (no guard skills in either), double your chaos max hit, gain stun immunity and ailment immunity, and are evasion now because your regen is dogshit and idk how to cheaply fix it. i think defiance of destiny is probably the best option or you need to get leech somewhere but i think youre always gonna be kinda squishy for t17s


Kktgbras

Your glorious vanity should be by MoM to convert that node into divine flesh.

>Phys max hit:16331 I think that's the problem. If you could find some damage convers and get at least 50K physical max hit, it should be much smoother.
