Can’t decide Hybrid life/es or acro/phase Acro.

Assassin with tree from shadow to Templar.

Was bored at work can use some opinions, went Acro last league on it felt decent. Looking to min-max the build a little further this league with some tweaks as I had a blast playing it and this is one of the things I’ve been up in the air about.

Can’t send PoB/tree atm cuz work but if you want later I can send later Basically grab shadow life/crit goes into mid witch then to outter ring till Templar.

Opinions on it? Teewhy

If you’re shadow or ranger, there’s no reason to not grab phase acro

assassin elusive works hand in hand with the dodges imo

Well the reason is Ehp vs dodge. Which I went acro last League which felt ok. But instead of going Eva on on armor pieces, was thinking try es bases and get a lil more ehp has build has minimal mitigation. Also point to acro past the life keystone strictly go to acro and maybe outside 3 point jewel, but that 9 points I can shave if iirc correct(at work can’t check)not counting jewel. So was think that may be an option to try this go around also added flexibility on chest piece as I don’t need additional curse potential this go around.

My tree is basically exact copy of that dude HoT build posted recently which I thought was funny, minus the 4point jewel at scion, and I use a thread of hope at Templar. If that help visualize the tree. So I have access to both hybrid circles 1 I take by default above shadow.

/e also I don’t wna thread of hope acro as I don’t think worth - maybe it is idk it’s like 7 point or something. Also since I use staff i can go block instead of dodge as currently use unnatural at witch jewel but can grab the staff block nodes.




that is not actually a synergy it’s just getting more dodge, which is the route I went the first go around so I understand your logic.

Sounds decent, Arco-life-es

i would add MoM, i mostly use on Es-life
then the 30%less es, is more of a -12%less hitpoints

30%spelldodge, would mean, 42.9%more effective hitpoints vs multiple hits

0.88/0.7===> 25.7%more effective hitpoints
no MoM, 50-50es-life===> 0.85/0.7==>21.4%
3.3k+6.6k es===>0.8/0.7===> 14.28%more effective hitpoits

e/
4k life + 1.5k mana + 3.5k es+ Acro

compared to acro+life )no es)
you gain 42.9%more life effective hitpoints when not use es
but you overall get 20%more hitpoints from passive tree and gear, if use life-es hybrid
142.9%acro life / 125.7acro life es/1.2=0.94


6%more hitpoints on acro-es-life then on acro-life

Phase acro/acro is the reason why my 100s are always smooth. Its not the only defenses I have, but layered defenses helps against triple beyonds. Not to mention, most of the beyond damage is chaos, so es means nothing.

Going block also an option as my build uses staff. My concern is the bigger hits so I can’t count acro as ehp or mitigation in that scenario, but for smaller
Hits I agree you can consider dodge ehp.




Good point about beyond I didn’t run beyond most of league until I got the HH, I did have some chaos res on build to mitigate.

Guess I’ll prob stick with acro again this league, thought saving the points on tree and extra 1-3k es could be worth.

/e Thanks for input, more input welcome as bored at work so convo and other ideas are cool.

Here, my Acro not gives 30%less es-heals
since my es-heals are flat, based on unbreakable+zealot oath and not on recharge or leech

MoM and es-life notes makes me not even notice -10%less total hitpoints
But the -50%less armour also means less hitpoints

e/considering it, mostly vs melee-attacks-dps
