Hello, just wanted to say i love the build on paper and im eager to play another poison build (Pestilent this time especially with the buff !)
I do have one issue though, i really want to fit in a plague bearer as i'm so used to it but i don't know what to replace link wise.
Is the arctic armour link that essential for the build ? could i remove this link and go for another body armour / tweaking a few points ? do you believe it would be bad to do so ?
Thanks again and have fun in ritual !

Hey, kind of want to start the league with this build, as i never touched a poison build before - could you tell me how well it handles delve till around 600 - 800. Possible to go into Darkness with it?
Transcendence handles it very well. I'm not a delver myself therefore i'm only at 600 depth in Std on nodes with worst possible mods and it's pushing quite easily.
Chaos pools are not an issue as you will have 78% chaos res.
Viper Strike with Splash will provide insane sustain on hit basically instant full life on a large pack.
Magma bioms are nasty as some of them have brutal burning ground, but that's easily mitigated with Soul of Aberath.
Transcendence variant should be able to push to 1k maybe even more.
Total darkness farming, no.

There is no "go-to" advice for that since it comes down to personal preference. I am playing Plague Bearer too. What you want to replace is up to you though, there are tons of gems the build does not need to perform.
You don´t need faster attacks on whirling blades, you don´t need faster casting or multiple totems on wither (it just stacks faster, so you´ll lose a bit dps), you don´t need culling strike on herald of agony, you don´t need enlighten before you have aspects and so on. What you leave out depends on your links and how many gem-slots you want to give to plague bearer. And yes, you can also drop unbound ailments on arctic armor.

Thanks again for the help! Vennto and TorsteinTheFallen, took some time on standard and tried out all of the different poison abilities and I have to say Pestilent Strike will be my go to. VG is right behind it so who knows I could always make a swap but thanks for your guys advice and lets fucking blast Ritual League in a bit!

Could also maybe find a nice Unset ring? Even give PB some + levels.

Hi sorry if it's been asked but why no acrobatics or phase acrobatics on the skill tree? (cobra lash)
I'm very new to the game so i'm trying to understand.

Acrobatics lower armour significantly.

Thanks for the in depth reply. May I ask what skill you would suggest for league start and then delving?
