Hi!
Thanks for the build, it seems strong.
Also thanks for the detailed descriptions which I somehow managed to miss in the comments 
The post above yours basically describes the skill rotation

Since Dark One is pretty farmable, is there any point in getting better rolled pieces like for better Chaos to Vit conversion or is it totally irrevelant since flat damage is useless as you said?
Hi, it makes total sense because you are converting damage on Destruction and Eldritch Pactâs proc. I would also try to get a chest with max physical resist and shoulders with max stun resist.
When you farm Dark One set you will have few pieces of same item, you can keep the one with better rolls. Or if you farm Lokarr for his set, you can hit few mages to get Dark One gear.
Ah, that does make sense. Unless I missed something, Chaos to Vit conversion caps out at 89% (30 helm + 30 chest + 29 amulet), right? Thank you as well for making awesome guides.
Nery: I already have Lokarrâs set and canât imagine leveling alts without it. I keep getting crap conversion rolls for Dark Ones but itâs still better than farming for Magi rings.

It really annoys me that the amulet for some reason only goes up to 29%. Every other item with average 25% conversion goes from 20 to 30, so why is that amulet 21 to 29?
Off topic and ultimately unimportant but itâs frustrated me in the past.
You can also roll the dice with transmuting extra Dark One pieces at Act 6 tinkerer if you have enough mats. Ultimately rolls on gear doesnât really affect this buildâs performance much tho.
I am guessing itâs a part of âfreebieâ design philosophy. But noone really knows. It is provocative tho.
Is there something Iâm missing or pink pieces (rainbow mod) like Dark Oneâs canât be transmuted? I did check just now to be sure and I canât.
Youâre right and it probably doesnât matter anyway. I guess itâs a remnant from my Diablo 3 days where every build item has to roll near perfect values and hit xxx breakpoints just to be able to play it. To think I was facerolling campaign while wearing Lokarrs up to 94, lol.
Not sure what that means. But all set legendaries can be transmuted iirc.
Ah, sorry for the confusion. By pink, i meant the special set items that drop from a separate loot table like Kriegs. They arenât transmutable.

Unless youâre speedrunning crucible or pushing deep shards highrolling your gear isnât necessary. That said CDR should always be highrolled as much as possible as itâs the most powerful stat in the game. Highrolling conversion is also needed on some builds but thatâs a case by case basis. Physical resist is also a very important stat to highroll.
Not all sets. SR set canât. Target farmable sets like Dark One might not be able to either.

No MI set piece can be transmuted, and no chest-specific either (Vanquisher, Morgoneth) holds also for epic ones (Alkamos rings)

Lol, didnât know that. Well, at least you can farm them in easy mod with this build.
Hi there. I managed to farm the dark one set, but have been unable to build anything capable of surviving ultimate SR yet, so would like to try this build.
Iâm still missing the Morgoneth ring and the offhand skull. What are good alternatives in those slots?
Thanks!
Morgoneth Stick or any Vitality off-hand with relevant bonuses. As for ring - any Vitality ring. Itâs not gonna be my build at its full power but it would be pretty close to it.
Thanks. Can this easily farm Morgoneth for his ring? I havenât even attempted him yet.
If you gear around Dark One set well leaving no gaps in defenses it shouldnât be a problem.
Hey @mad_lee,
Iâm right now following the Beginnerâs vitality caster guide by @Nery and Iâm getting close to lvl 94.
I am aimimg for this Endgame build because I have all items/blueprints but Morgonethâs ring. But I am wondering at which blacksmith i should craft which item for the build⌠Weapon, relic, was there more? I didnât really get the system yet, because whenever i craft, i donât really get what I expected 
. There are some of the bonusses from the blacksmith but not necessarily all of them.
You can always check Smith bonus in gameâs wiki or just by hovering with your mouse over the anvil icon left to the âCraftâ button in-game. Here you shoud go for Stun Resist or Freeze Resist or Physique. Relic doesnât get crafting bonuses.
