Aspect priority order for evadeswarm now that I have Shattered Vow?

Aspect priority order for evadeswarm now that I have Shattered Vow?

I've been very lucky to get a Shattered Vow and I'm trying to make it work for my build. I started with this maxroll guide, but its only mention of Shattered Vow is that the Supremacy aspect should move from weapon to Amulet. It doesn't state where the aspect that was originally on amulet should go, or what cascading changes of least important aspect to drop.

I'm also looking at this mobalytics guide which does have Shattered Vow equipped but the description tosses out several competing aspects that it says could all be swapped in on the gloves, amulet, rings, but again I can't tell if how the aspects rack and stack and what one gets left out.

Right now my build matches closer with the maxroll guide Endgame Hard, only that I have Shattered Vow and I've straight up dropped supremacy (going off the mobalytics guide saying less useful for bosses). It feels like pestilence and writhing are pretty required going off the numbers I'm seeing. Unclear if the Unyielding Hits could replace either of those. And mystic Ring of Writhing Moon seems pretty required to keep the swarms orbiting me instead of an enemy I've dashed away from. I swear I see smaller dot tick damage while I have Shattered Vow up, but at the same time if they get executed it doesn't really matter the per-tick of the dot is smaller thanks to the GA dot duration affix on Vow results in a fully poisoned health bar anyway (definitely feels like things are dying faster with Shattered Vow). My non-unique Supremacy polearm is pretty competitive on affix rolls, makes it all the tougher to decide.

Any advice of how to prioritize the aspects, or if I'm good to have just dropped supremacy and otherwise align with the maxroll guide?

I'm currently able to reliably kill Pit 120 and rarely 125. Paragon 235

Best boot aspect for counterattack build?

What do you guys recommend for boot aspect? I’ve tried a few of them and so far I’m not to impressed. I’d like to boost my damage if at all possible.

What’s the point of Resource Cost Reduction stats on Rod of Kepe builds?

Not to be confused with Resource Generation, which I understand if you get that to 100%, combined with Ring of the Midnight Sun (with a 50% roll) will give you 100% uptime on Rod of Kepe’s effect by spending/refunding max resource every hit.

But I see on build guides call outs for ring of the starless sky (specifically mentioning its 50% cost reduction in addition to the damage) and tempers for Reduced Resource Cost.

If the ring of midnight sun is already refunding all of your vigor regardless of how much you spend, what exactly is the cost reduction doing? And if I’m spending 100% of my vigor, regardless of what the skill “costs”, what is being reduced?

My only guess:

Is it effectively making it seem like you’re spending way more vigor on each attack so Rod of Kepe is doing a much bigger crit multiplier? (For example, if I have 100 vigor, 20% resource cost reduction, and attack, it spends all 100 vigor, but maybe it acts as if I actually spent 100/0.8=125 vigor, when multiplying Rod’s vigor multiplier effect. So even though my max vigor is 100, I get 25 extra vigor worth to multiply Rod’s effect with? (the 0.8 above = 20% reduced cost))

Thanks in advance !

Noob help, item comparison

Counter swarm, unfortunate indestructible roll...but thoughts on which one is more appropriate to a speed/push rather than pit push?

Set charms

Hello, I am curious if anyone else is running into this problem of Balazans set charms not dropping. I have gotten plenty of the other set charms but none of the ones required for my build. TIA

Testing A Crit Spiritborn Build, Any ideas to test?

Hello im testing some crit builds on s15 ptr for spritiborn. Currently testing this

https://d4builds.gg/builds/f0bac86f-4714-446c-bc45-3c609970ae53/?var=0

it clears t12, gonna do some tweaks but is there anything in your mind that you wanted to be tested or any opinion on this build? Would be lovely. Thank you

Edit: Can't add them but this build runs Splinter of Hellfire as soul splinter and also Splinter of Anguish. With the 120% crit chance we get from the weapon aspect we get rid of the 100% crit reduction. Basically we try to have 220+ crit chance and keep the advantages

Edit 2: We go for 30 ranks on ravager to have rushing claw active all the time like pestilent swarm but this time we use it to have our weapon legendary aspect on everytime

Feels like a huge achievement

Finally I was able to finish tower 140 with only one poison transfigure on the a chest piece. It feels like an achievement and I am happy with it. The grind continues for poison transfiguration from cube and to be top 5 at the leaderboard before the season ends hopefully.

Help get past T7

I found this Rod of Kepeleke a few weeks ago that's been working really well for me and got me all the way to T7. The only problem is I hit a wall, and now trying to craft a better weapon, so I got a few of these war crozier staffs, which I thought were pretty good after maxing everything out, but they are worse and can barely scratch most bosses.

The Kepeleke rod has been very good with Quill volley, and touch of death set to a core skill, but on the war crozier staff, they do almost nothing, even with a similar good vulnerability multiplier.

I need help to progress and am looking for suggestions please? Any thoughts on better gear/skills that I should be using or combining with these?

Seal Drop

"I was having creme brulee martinis with Heidi Klum this weekend and her husband came in and wanted to talk about Diablo 4"

Now I'm finally getting some Seal drops that are worth talking about.

I got a perfect pull of a Legendary seal with Balisan's Bite Dot 30. THEN I got a Diamond Mind with 24 Dot & Enemies with less than 2 seconds are killed.

My question is: Which song is better "Crazy" or "Kissed by a Rose"?

As a follow up, which seal and what other charm would you add to the mythic?

Which Weapon Should I use?

I'm wondering which of these y'all would use, as someone who's a relatively casual D4 player.

Also--Am I missing something with Supremacy, or is it almost entirely useless for bossing? I don't get the hype.

Thank you for your time!!

Build Help Please

This is an alt and I’ve been following guides. Why am I so weak?
I am comparing it to my main barb. However I’m not clearing P 127. I feel like I’m doing something wrong?

I’m trying to get better gear my glyphs are at 126 and Ravager is 32.

Feedback needed please.

Gear choice help

Is the +4 to defensive skills a better move over +6 to counterattack? Can currently clear Pit 113 fairly easily with the current equipped gear.
