Thanks for this. Dedicated follower after your last cold dot builds last league. Excited to play this build on league start, looks awesome, and wildly unique.

Regarding the Avarius Militant Faith at 8:01, You should get the full value of your Mana as Armour with Power of Purpose, and the full value of your Mana as ES with Sanctuary of Thought. "As extra" modifiers are conversion. The interaction may not feel intuitive, but consider elemental conversion: Converting your Physical Damage to Lightning doesn't diminish your ability to gain % of Physical Damage as Extra of any other damage type. You'll still gain full value from Hatred if you use Cold to Lightning Support with no other sources of conversion, despite 50% of your Physical Damage already being converted. Life and Mana conversions should behave the same way.

Just in case anyone is going to craft the chest mentioned here, Ailment/Stun avoid on body armour is actually a prefix, not a suffix, so you want to finish suffixes first.

I like your guides, fast and straight to the point.

thankyou, very well explained. im going to implement quite a bit of this, particularly the maximising of brand recall into my arc.brand firestorm build. will be switching from guardian to heiro- nice tip on the generating of frenzy charges

This is looking like a well rounded beast

Hey Jung, I fell in love with your brand recall arma idea first time I saw it, seems like a new and great playstyle, ssfhc viable with enough defence and offense layers. I'm definetelly league starting this. I am glad that your vods and vids exist, sometimes I have hard time understanding you, because your English is so fast pace and not so clear spoken, also when u speak, your train of thoughts and speech are super stacked, but when I slow you down, all the thinks you say are educational and interesting. Keep it up. Nudle_hc

Good, I'm following your guide and I always lack the manna that I have to do so that I don't miss it. Errs, the best I've seen, thanks.

thanks for all your hard work mate

I was looking for a brand build and remembered you from last gauntlet. It's harder to see SSFHC builds so thanks for the build

I believe there is a weapon mod "trigger a socketed spell on cast". Running another copy of brand recall in the weapon would give you even more nuke every 8 seconds.

You sir are evil and cold blooded.. love it, continue doing it

thank you for the well rounded beast mr. streamer

is it possible to use brand recall on another button than left mouse click and still move? constantly using left mouse click fucks up my hand so i have force move on space bar

Thx for the non-meta guides, man. I'm unironically gonna start this build on my HC journey.

Thanks for this ! im probably league start your Arma brand recall !

Any luxury items you would prioritize in a non SSF scenario?

sir . i cant import the build ,its giving me error in POB "the build u are trying to load uses an unrecognised version of the passive skill tree" and im running latest version of PoB communityfork

For any late starters. Get that spell supp capped! I died a lot before i got full spell supp and ghostshrouds in maps // a softcore player

Hello in intro you dont use flammability and assasin mark how do you fit it in buttons ?

will try, long time dont play any brand build, thx jung

Jung great fan as always, gonna try this out on league start. Just a question about the build, do you consider sanctuary of thought important to have? I I was considering to drop it ( maybe dropping discipline since we get less reservation) and go for arcane blessing since its 20% more damage.

Can someone please tell me how to replace the files that were linked to this build?

0:32 How is he casting both curses without (apparently) actually pressing them? I can't fit everything in my bars

I socketed my brand recall into a +2 unset in my version of this build a few leagues back, would you consider doing that in this version of the build? What would the extra 16% even look like considering you already have 100% from hiero and more on the tree

Can you tell me the reason for the 25% less damage in custom Modifiers?

cant wait to try this =)

Thanks for the guide. Fun learning this build. I am confused as to why we take both Frostblink and Shield Charge. What am I missing?

is it possible to improve the build as much as possible? Or will he not be able to close uber bosses? will there be a pob max dps ? (google translate)

You don't explain what's those custom modifiers you added in configuration plus where'd you got that res cap and that HP. I got almost the exact same items and it's nowhere there with all the calcs correct

Hello. Will there be an update for this build?

So out of curiosity, with a mid to endgame budget how well would this build do? That is if you can scale this well outside of a starter.

amazing build for new league , so what do you think about fire trap

Is there any other brand setup that can work with this setup? Or is it only Arma Brand?

3.24 with automation is ita option with triggerbots as starter?

This is actually a reverse April Fools joke. Jungroan always post clickbait guides pre release, so the April fools is that this one is actually legit

@jungroan i have a question...is this tree vaiable to put penance brand instead ? after huuge buff in 3.23 i wannt to try league start with this .

hey, this build have too many buttons to pres, brand+recall, vortex, woc, mark and curse, focus,vaal molten shell. also pob shows a lot of stats missing - you need 159 dex + str to run everything. currently im level 84 and i use trigger on weapon for woc,mark and curse, its 3 buttons i dont have to press. its ok build but need qol. also some guide for later stages with advices what stats to prio would be most welcome.

would you recommend righteous fire for spell damage?

Can i play this build as caster semi-support guardian?

any skilled POBer manage to make it friendlier with leveling trees and notes etc?

Hey Jung, are there any useful uniques that you could fit?

kinda tempted to try this with Sabo. most likely it will be worse, but clockwork and bomb specialits might make it fun

Hey buddy could you add POB with end game gear pls?

Hello, Is there a way to use arma brand on chieftain? I kind of want to try to do one specific fire related build on chieftain but leveling is the question yet.

Will there be any upgrades to this build?

And what about bossing on this build?

Some may even call this build well rounded beast.

can't import your POB?

looks fucking well rounded and bestial 👍 👍 👍

I noticed you run assassin mark/flammability but you werent using it in the intro. how does that work?

Is there a 3.24 version of this? What important changes are there since?

Guys, keep in mind this guide was released on april 1st.

I'm a "newbie", but Imma give it try ig, leveling trees, notes and tips would be great ngl. I choosed that build in last minute.

I don't think you can slot Determ as soon as you get that first aura wheel. You need a second aura wheel or the Mana mastery.

Gonna try this with my second crucible character. Found a clean saintly chainmail 6L and an ammy with 1+ fire gems, 72 life, 14% ele resist, 17% spell damage. Should be enough to get started in maps? I just ripped the #2 sabo (ice trap) in HC SSF ;____;

can we please have leveling trees?

GREAT BUILD jungroan!! if i decide to only create 1 character this league, would i be able to do all bosses with this? (all ubers)

how many buttons is this?

Is this the melee build for the 10%? I am in!

Very nice build - now we need some dual claw non meta 3.21 starter ❤

Hi, i noticed that the build had more things to press than what you had on the skill bar, but since you're already using Focus as a mechanic, why not have the Helmet Trigger spells on focus mod on, i tried on Standart, i socketed Frost shield, both curses and wave of convition in there and the build instantly became way easier to play, you just hold Brand recall and vortex with your mouse, and the only buttons you ever need to press become arma brand at the start, focus and Divine Blessing aura when you need to and your movement skill (so it became barelly a 1 button build while mapping), thoughts ? Did i miss something ?

I like linking my brand recall to enhance to further reduce the CDR. Later on you can aim for an Ashes to further reduce the cooldown

One of the most easily digestible build guides I’ve ever seen, thanks. As a SC player, any reason I couldn’t run Mark on Hit for Assassins mark and drop something like defiance banner? Feel like I’d rather have the extra damage vs rares while mapping than defiance but idk

I've tried to manually replace the files in the PoB folder but when I try to import the pastebin link it says "Unknown Passive Tree Version". Any suggestions?

Was watching the Searing Exarch portion and never noticed an action bar change. Are the curses automated somehow?

Can I try it on SSF?

can we use arcanist brand, linked to combustion, WoC and flammability? Or we lose DPS that way

Hey Jung, so if the max brands are 7 with this buold, why does the pob calc show 8 brands, am I missing something?

During leveling explanation, he doesn't tick Rune Binder, when do you take that node? I thought it would be most important one :S

Does he need Whispers of Doom to run Flammability and Assassin mark? I thought marks and hexes were different and they could both be applied without issue?

Only Jung can make brands a melee build

Low key conviction of power was also buffed, now it gives 40% increased crit chance, it's not much but it's something 🤷

Would you consider arcane blessing and illuminated devotion if you would leaguestart this on softcore? instead of divine guidance and sanctuary of thought?

Leaning into starting this build, either this or Boneshatter since I never played it. SC andy just trying to stay alive Q_Q

I am new to this build can you explain how you apply the curses without casting them without blasphemy or arcanist brand? Thanks.

SWEET

cant open the attachment, says virus :S

The zip file that loads on the discord attachement link has my system absolutely hellbent that it has a trojan now. Was ist a Zip bomb or what is it?

ty

I think you can drop sign of purpose for arcane blessing. The cd difference of recall is like 1/10 of a second difference

Hey jung! In your PoB, when I clicked the jewel socket in the witch area a militant faith popped off that gives us an other note (inner conviction). I was curious why it was difference.. just random? cuz it gives us like 12% more damage I was wondering if it is there on purpose. Also do you think discipline is needed? For me it looks like that 2000 instead of 2700 ES seems fine. What are your thought on that? Thanks for the guide, rolling with that tomorrow!

non damaging ailment shouldn't scale brittle ground. I think pob assume regular brittle when you tick it and gives misleading result.

will you do a end game version pob? tyty for guide

Hello Jungroan noob here. I have 89 Hierophant following exactly your skill tree. Anyway I am just missing 3 key things. Militant Faith Jewel, Cluster Jewel and some of your items. Is there any place where to get those jewels? It seems like important pillar of this build. Or are they a common subject of exchange? I am doing map lvl 11 now. Thx for advice

Did i miss something i cant figure out how hes casting assassin's mark and flammability

hi jung, are you going to update your pob to 3.21 ? really want to give your build a try, if it sucks, i will flame you on twitch, i promise lol....good job btw, you are a beast

Is he self casting curse/mark? I'm too stupid to realize how he's applying them.

When do you swap in the crit gems and spec out of EO and take the spell crit stuff?

Endgame viable, normal bosses?

Would RF be something you could fit in here?

There's too many active abilities, i'm having to make new keybinds and put stuff on the second bar.

Does the elemental damage leeched as energy shield work with brands?

How about resistance and attribute I see you add +200% resistance in custom mods?

0:38 How is he getting 7 maximum brands? (the count in pob is even set to 8) I'm just failing to see any way to go over 5 (default 3, +2 on tree node). EDIT: I was missing the brand mastery, theres another +2 in there. (still don't get why the count is set to 8 in the skills tab tho)

Build still good for 3.23?

This build looks sick i wanna try but i m new at this game so what's the leveling skill for this build

I think I'd stick to a wander or a bow character for the league start. Dunno if that playstyle will be good with that ultimatum like mechanic. You'll want to spam things that clear the screen or prolif unethically. The brand delays no sure.

Okay, but that's too much clicking for me Mr. Jung Roan, just drop me the cold dot Tricky boi 🥶❄️

Pob isn't updated for the new tree yet :/
