Hey everyone! Seik here. Unfortunately, the Covenant "Buffs" invalidated large amounts of our planning for this guide, and we had to spend around 20 hours over the past 3 days just catching the build up to where it was before the patch notes. We ended up in a situation where we had to choose between putting out an impromptu video guide, and not putting out a video guide at all. So, we sat down at 5AM and recorded this guide, unplanned and mostly unedited, in one sitting. While I can't say it's up to our usual standards, it should still cover most aspects of this aurabot build, and hopefully shed some light on starting out as an aurabot. If something in this guide seems unclear, chances are there's a better explanation of it in the PoB :p
This podcast style guide was a fucking blast to listen to. You guys came through with the content and that's all that matters to us. Improvise, adapt, overcome.
Thank you so much for all your efforts! Planning to start as a duo with my friend, following your guide in 3.20. Was wondering if the incoming changes, are impactful for us or no?
I have about 4,000 hours on aurabot and around 7-8,000 on the game total and i can say without a doubt this is the best video guide for an aurabot / duo setup i have ever seen. Incredible job on both the videos and breaking everything down. Even I learned some stuff.
i have to say thank you for this guide my buddy was hesitant on duoing this league with me, but i showed him how fleshed out your guides are and he changed his mine. Cant wait to blast with my buddy this league, thanks once again!!!
As someone who loves playing support characters in any game this video couldn’t be long enough! Going to make this build as a second character to play with my brother. Good luck on league start everyone!
Thanks so much for this guide. I'm new-ish to PoE and have been looking to level an aurabot, but not sure how. This helped a lot, along with your 3.21 video you released recently. I'm AntBot on trade. Cheers!
Enjoyed the video even though it was an hour long. Will have to rewatch a few things, but it really covered a lot. Great work and look forward trying this out with my Duo
Dang it guys, glorious job, instead of going through every PoB of PoeNinja this helps alot. This is my 3rd league now as aurabot and i still learned something. Keep us updated!
Really appreciate the effort put into this I was trying to plan out an aura bot to help a friend who is new to the game and i normally play ssf so i was totally out of my depth outside of "gotta run all the auras possible"
thank you for this video! I finally made a friend who's a good duo partner for me, but I've been feeling confused and squishy as an aurabot. this is just what I needed.
an important thing with militant faith is to look at the notable inside the green area and see so it dont change the notables. it can really fyyk ur build
Although I don’t have a friend to play with me so this is mostly to fulfill my curiosity. You think it is ever possible to have a AuraBot that is completely AFK for simulacrum farming support? Assuming budget is not a limit. (I have two PC tho…)
@@andreww.8056 haha they mentioned well above 100ex (which I assumed two mage blood at least). But I’m more referring to the play style they described, AFK feared. I wonder if it’s possible to AFK simulacrum.
Thanks for this guide. I am trying to follow it on my aurabot. One thing I am having trouble grasping is the swap from the "late mapping" to the "500c" build. It seems like the entire swap needs to be done at once or it wont work. It requires lvl 3 enlightens which are 2+ divines just to get it going. I would have liked there have been more explanation of that swap in the video or future video.
That's something we can touch more on next time. The nature of aurabots makes them really hard to incrementally upgrade, so it's largely something you need to do all at once.
Are there plans to update this to 3.20? I haven't played like this before, so I really don't know if changes to the new league will Impact this guide. Looking forward to try this with a friend :)
@@Haloplasm I have joined the Discord by now and I followed the small updates you gave there. I really appreciate the time you two have put into this, while having all the stress on the side. Thank you very much ❤️
hey, great content again. Amazing knowledge sharing although this time the video would need better structure but I understand that implementing the "buffs" needed to invest more of your POB time rather than video making time.
i would say that the only thing missing is a custom filter section covering act 1-10 for right color socket and link, otherwhise it's an amazing and complet video, even if i know a lot i still learn many tips thx for it
Why are we taking Lethe Shade on the Spark Carry? He's got Righteous Fire on which means he gets no benefit from this. I'm also sort of unsure why we take it on the Aurabot as well, but I assume testing showed it to be awesome.
It feels really nice on the aurabot when dealing with things like Synthete degen puddles, but it's not strictly necessary. If you're running RF with 100% uptime you can drop it, early on I usually only turn RF on for bosses so it feels nice while mapping.
Hi guys! You made a brilliant job with this guide, thank you very much! Unfortunately, there is one particular part which is unclear for me: recommendation for purchasing order. Especially since we are going to play duo, for example what we should buy as an item #1 as soon as we get min currency (first 5c for example)? X for aurabot? X for carry? What should be the second item, 3rd etc in the context of what gives to the party the biggest benefits at the league start with the very first investments.
Sign of the Sin Eater for the aurabot and a Tabula are the cheapest items that do the most for you. After that, get basic life/resist rares for the carry and some decent wands or sceptres for a few chaos. After that you can follow the instructions at 29:54
Tried this with a friend and I have to say that I've never had so much fun in POE in over 6k hours combined. Thank you for this! We are both kinda squishy atm @ 300c investment each, looking forward to becoming a lot more tanky.
New to the aurabot game, and really wish the carry hadn't cut off the Aurabot guy on the playstyle- like how do stormblast mines work? Smite, we actually use that button?
Absolutely awesome guide to a duo setup! Adapting a lot of what my better half and I were planning on league starting with based on what you've put together. One question though, is there a source of information regarding crafting gear required for this (or the spark carry) other than going back through the videos again? I did not see anything about it in the PoB Notes, though I know it was talked about at several different points in the video. I know a lot of it is probably super basic, but figuring out how best to craft to get a particular outcome in PoE is still some type of mysterious magic to me. Generally involves way too much time randomly trying stuff on craft of exile. Worst case when I get a chance I'll just replay all the videos and write it down, but figured I'd check in case it was already included and I'm just missing it. Thanks again for the awesome content!
That's the type of resource that we really wanted to make but ended up not having enough time to do before league start. If you have a specific item outcome in mind, you can always mock it up on craftofexile and ask the folks in the discord server how you should craft it.
Hello, is the mine mastery "Mine cannot be damaged" necessary? Friend and I figured the mines don't really die while doing Uber bosses, wanted to hear about your opinion. Thanks in advance
Can't believe aurabots became this so complicated mess. I still remember old days where the only hard item you had to obtain was shavs, now it feels weird to not run all purities and 50% auras.
Hey, saw your build. Loved it. (Nohomo) and gotta say, ya'll did a great job. Really enjoyed the full meal deal explanation with the pod-cast feel. Liked the little quirky jokes you both stabbed in from time to time. Got a question for you though. What would you suggest our third man before for a trio ( I have 2 other buddies, one is doing the spark.) Should we throw in a curse bot or just another carry? Looking forward to hearing back from you despite it being so late in the league.
A magic find cull build would probably be best, hunting god-touched loot goblins is huge profit this league. The hybrid mana guardian/cursebot is an option as well.
There are a lot of people in the discord with different aurabot versions, but Seik and I are done with our duo setup until we start prepping for next league.
Hey guys, do you plan on doing a guide on higher level of aurabot stuff? I've reached 3000c level almost (2 divines away from Unnatural Instinct which is 20 divines) and I would like to go further with it 'cause it's super fun.. Also, thanks for the great guide, I enjoyed every minute of it. :)
There's a lot of people in the discord server that have posted PoBs of their aurabots that they've invested more currency into. Seik and I are done with the duo setup until we do testing for next league.
Enjoyed the video. I did notice quite a bit of uniques needed especially when starting early maps. What is your plan if uniques become much harder to obtain? Focus on spending most of your currency on them worst case?
Aweesome guide guys. Love it. Had question, for league start leveling, there any other skill set uo that works well? I really dont enjoy mine playstyle. Havr any skill tree advice for like explosive trap or any other skill you would recommend?
With level 20 flat damage to spells vendor crafted weapons you could probably make most elemental hit skills work if you really wanted to. Stormblast mine is just strictly better though, so my advice would be to just suffer a bit for an hour on league start.
You can buy a corrupted jewel, use a flask suffix, take the ailment mastery for it, or use the pantheon that limits it to 5 stacks and just pop vaal disc when it's applied to you. Any of those options will work.
Hey great guide, iv been enjoying the build so far! Been playing as the aurabot with my friend and i only have one major issue that i cant figure out yet, I feel fairly tanky and nothing really kills me until I come across usually a physical damage bleed dot, and then i just watch my health widdle away as I stand there praying lol... I couldnt find anything in the build regarding it, also for corrupting blood i was dying alot until i swapped out the chaos mastery for immunity to corrupting bleeding. So i was wondering how you deal with the physical bleed dot as the aurobot thank you!
Some versions of the aurabot Seik ran the mastery for CB immunity, sometimes he used a flask suffix for it. Eventually you want to pick up a good jewel with a CB immunity implicit.
Hi people. thanks for the great guide! I can't understand in the 3000c tab how he can use hast in divine blessing when your max mana remaining is 34. Thanks in advance for the answer! :)
You swap spark for crackling lance for sirius and bad arena fights for better single target from what i saw in the other video. what else do you swap? medium clusters get useless for example since they are proj clusters. hope you got time to answer this. ty in advance
That version didn't have cluster jewels yet, so I swapped over to crack lance for a bit of extra damage since the sirus fight is a bit bad for spark. If you have the midgame version of the spark character you'll one shot sirus anyways. I swapped out Spark/Pierce (and take out pinpoint too if you're running it) for Crackling Lance/Intensify.

Hello! Thanks for your job! Can I use arcanist brand with some curse instead mines? I don't like mines too much... I'll loose tons of damage for carry doing it? If no, what curse can I use? Thanks!!
hey folks. thanks for the great guide - playing it now with a friend and having a lot of fun! one question though: on your 500c version, you have your Wrath aura bound with Divine Blessing support, which makes it a blessing skill that costs 432 mana. how do you cast it when you have only 54 unreserved mana left? do you sacrifice any other other auras or is there some trick for that? Thanks.
How did you combat the a"Divine Blessing" changes. In the POB ots a key mechanic for Wrath, but cannot be done anymore? I am new to aurabot so may have missed something. But it is asking for 500 mana to cast wrath.
would you happen to know if aurabot/summoner hybrid builds are viable? i know they used to be popular in the past, but it seems like aura effect was nerfed too hard to be comparable to a generic summoner build.
I've never properly played a minion build so I don't know how viable it'd be. Minions and aura effect have been nerfed pretty hard recently, so I wouldn't expect a hybrid setup to be that good.
@@Haloplasm ah okay. Probably the strat is to try to get additional auras vs stacking effect. like power of purpose timeless jewel to lower the cost of divine blessing or something
Hey! Amazing video, and aurabot guide aswell! All auras up and i have the 3000c investment. But i cant seem to "pop" Haste? I cant find the flask on trade site and i need 774 mana to pop it. You are talking about it around 20 minutes in, but thats not helping, since we are not taking that passives in the 3000c investment tree. Can you help :)
It sounds like you don't have the Bismuth Flask properly set up. Post your PoB in the #build-help channel in the discord and someone will explain exactly what you need to do.
Hey great guide! Im having trouble of finding out how do you run 3 simultaneous life reserved auras. I m on the the late game setup, have pretty much all the gear and passive points but determination/grace eats up 83.75% of my life regardless. Cant even use one of them with vitality, i keep messing with PoB but i cant find what im missing
Check which items your skill gems are socketed in with the PoB version you're trying to emulate. Seik laid out which gems should go in which links with what specific items very thoroughly.
Hi, sorry if its a dumb question. For the aurabot, how does she mitigate chaos damage since she runs auras on prism guardian? I may be missing something but i dont see a way chaos damage wont kill her?
hey i am new to aurabot. i am somewhere between the 500c and 3000c build.... wondering how you get to use haste in the end build ? dont you need mana to chast it and my build and your pob? have very low reserved mana ?
Without being able to see your build there's no way for me to know what's going wrong. Post your setup in the #build-help channel in the discord server if you are still having problems.
I wonder should i or carry watchout for any added flat dmg of any other elemebt or phys or something i should not have on rare item to rip our duo setup?
Seik just tested it and he says that both the melee portion and the ranged portion of the attack are affected by accuracy, and that you don't get the buff if you don't hit one of those. He just tested this by equipping a bunch of negative accuracy uniques to get 5% chance to hit and then trying to hit enemies with both or either of the strike and AoE. If you had different results, can you share your methodology?
@@Haloplasm you were right. After testing again against higher tier maps and intentionally lowering accuract to 5%, the buff does not appear unless you hit. It does seem worth the link provided we have the sockets. Although, i think with precision, the aurabot has above 50% accuracy. Well give it a shot. Thanks for testing again.
i was playing lots of minion builds b4 but with the 3.19 minion butchering going on,i decided to start cf glad in 3.19,went well ofc,but i have a friend who really wanted to play with me,but he is kinda new (500h on steam) and i never played aurabot b4,so i told him its too complicated to fix all the reservation and if there is no guide to get me through this,i wont do this. same for the carry build (i had no idea,since i only played solo). long story short,i found this video,and we started it together in deli everywhere event,why? bc if its working there,its gonna work in 3.20. now with the manifesto of AN "gone" the next league should be even easier. and its working for now in the event,but we are only in low tier yellow maps rn,well .. 98% deli maps on a budget and no trade market ...can be cruel :D but its working much better than i thought,considering we are both absolute noobs at this duo thing and i am not sure if my friend is an up- or downgrade to minion AI :D thats why i wont start the next league as a duo with him,but i am 100% sure we will do this as a second char. and maybe,after some practice,in 3.21 start as a duo. so thanks for that! btw,even tho the video is long,it was so easy to understand and follow
CF Glad is still one of my favorite builds out there. The clear speed and bleed explosions are so satisfying. If you asked Seik I'm sure he'd say I'm a downgrade to minion AI because minions don't ever flame dash into Synthete slam so I can't blame your friend. :P I'm glad you enjoyed our setup!
@@Haloplasm we reached lvl 90 in the event :D we gave up after that,i bricked so many maps with vaaling (reflect ele) and i didnt want to run yellow maps from 90 to 95. but overall it was a blast. we had an encounter with some scary AN mobs (2 of them at once) and even tho i was trying to tank it with my aurabot,at some point my friend stood still and let them hit him,i saw the AN mob charge some delirium bs attack and he didnt move,so i screamed "MOVE!" and then he died and said xD "i didnt want to move bc of corrupted blood" so he confused cb with bleeding. thats what i was working with. and he didnt understand why i didnt want to use soul link xD (i really wanted to reach 90 for the event so i sacrificed him xD) i really didnt want to get hit on the head everytime he does stupid things,sounds like some fetish torture to me xD even tho we reached 90,i was kinda sad at the end,bc i wanted to get to the next gearing step with the aurabot,but there was no point,bc the event is going to end soon and there was no trade. my late mapping setup was around 600c or something like that. everything was so expensive and nobody was buying anything. (unique gloves went for 40-80c,which i didnt buy bc of that but found later on my second char,mf necro xD) never got my hands on a prism guardian :< overall,since it was my first aurabot and his first carry build,i was absolutely mindblown how crazy good this setup is. i compared the gear/time investment with other builds i played and i was like ... just mindblown,since we did 85% deli with no problems,we kinda started to struggle in red tiers when deli was over 94% but at that point the carry was still wearing tabula. so yeah. absolutely crazy how strong this setup is. i kept wondering how good this would have been without deli or in a real league with decent trade and crafting options. that must be some insane stuff xD so again. thank you!
For EXP rewards sacrifices must be made :P Prism Guardian is where the Aurabot really comes online, a lot of other Aurabot start with that item in their cheapest setup. Turning on your Purities and having all your auras in place makes the duo ascend to the next level. Reading about how well the builds worked for you guys is super rewarding! We've got some improvements planned for 3.20 but we're holding off building the characters until patch notes hit this time. Best of luck in 3.20 :D
Funny thing in the past iv spend more than 200ex on a build just to be able to clear wave 30sim with one or two deaths xD and still i havent killed a single uber boss amd i got carried by HH buffs most of the time in 100deli maps while randomly tpying and jumping with the annoing hh buff and now i hear i can do all this with my friend in just a fraction of the price
You'd have to redo all your reservations and it might not be enough to let you run another 50% aura. It's definitely the best endgame item for the Aurabot though.
The Masteries constantly change as you swap between different versions of the build. If you're looking for information on a specific version, screenshot the passive tree and any info you have and put it in the PoE channel in the discord server. That's the best way to get the specific information you need.

It should be pretty easily doable with more investment. At that point though, why not just invest in a solo build?
There is no militant faith with venarius in kalandra (legacy) but we can still work around it, great video.

Hey guys, do you plan on doing a guide on higher level of aurabot stuff? I've reached 3000c level almost (2 divines away from Unnatural Instinct which is 20 divines) and I would like to go further with it 'cause it's super fun.. Also, thanks for the great guide, I enjoyed every minute of it. :)
There's a lot of people in the discord server that have posted PoBs of their aurabots that they've invested more currency into. Seik and I are done with the duo setup until we do testing for next league.
Enjoyed the video. I did notice quite a bit of uniques needed especially when starting early maps. What is your plan if uniques become much harder to obtain? Focus on spending most of your currency on them worst case?
I don't expect that to happen, but even with only Sign of the Sin Eater you can do most of the early atlas pushing just fine
Aweesome guide guys. Love it. Had question, for league start leveling, there any other skill set uo that works well? I really dont enjoy mine playstyle. Havr any skill tree advice for like explosive trap or any other skill you would recommend?
With level 20 flat damage to spells vendor crafted weapons you could probably make most elemental hit skills work if you really wanted to. Stormblast mine is just strictly better though, so my advice would be to just suffer a bit for an hour on league start.
Hey, thanks for the guide! just saw SnapOW video as well. He mentioned that the gloves he uses are outperforming Inquis. What do you think :D ?
I disagree
Hi what is your bandit and pantheon choises ?
We constantly change it based on the content we're doing, there's no objectively best pantheon to always run.
I'm not seeing any corrupted blood immunity :( Do you guys recommend using a flask for this or just corrupting the small cluster jewels or something?
You can buy a corrupted jewel, use a flask suffix, take the ailment mastery for it, or use the pantheon that limits it to 5 stacks and just pop vaal disc when it's applied to you. Any of those options will work.
Hey great guide, iv been enjoying the build so far! Been playing as the aurabot with my friend and i only have one major issue that i cant figure out yet, I feel fairly tanky and nothing really kills me until I come across usually a physical damage bleed dot, and then i just watch my health widdle away as I stand there praying lol... I couldnt find anything in the build regarding it, also for corrupting blood i was dying alot until i swapped out the chaos mastery for immunity to corrupting bleeding. So i was wondering how you deal with the physical bleed dot as the aurobot thank you!
Some versions of the aurabot Seik ran the mastery for CB immunity, sometimes he used a flask suffix for it. Eventually you want to pick up a good jewel with a CB immunity implicit.
Thinking of trying this next league, but with Survival Secrets getting the axe, what's the best way to replace it for 100% Coruscating Elixir uptime?
Flask mods on a belt are the easiest way, but we'll have to see the patch notes before we lock in any changes.
Hi people. thanks for the great guide! I can't understand in the 3000c tab how he can use hast in divine blessing when your max mana remaining is 34. Thanks in advance for the answer! :)
You need the crafr on one flask to be able to use the Devine blessing linked aura
Is survival instict still in the game? Thank you so much for your fine work!
It's not, but we've adjusted the build so that we no longer need it.
hello im about to make a aurabot and looking at this video can u still run it with the new updates (with out Survival Instincts Viridian Jewel)
You swap spark for crackling lance for sirius and bad arena fights for better single target from what i saw in the other video. what else do you swap? medium clusters get useless for example since they are proj clusters. hope you got time to answer this. ty in advance
That version didn't have cluster jewels yet, so I swapped over to crack lance for a bit of extra damage since the sirus fight is a bit bad for spark. If you have the midgame version of the spark character you'll one shot sirus anyways. I swapped out Spark/Pierce (and take out pinpoint too if you're running it) for Crackling Lance/Intensify.
Hello! Thanks for your job! Can I use arcanist brand with some curse instead mines? I don't like mines too much... I'll loose tons of damage for carry doing it? If no, what curse can I use?
Thanks!!
Mines give you an insane amount of damage. There's no "good" reason not to use them.
hey folks. thanks for the great guide - playing it now with a friend and having a lot of fun!
one question though: on your 500c version, you have your Wrath aura bound with Divine Blessing support, which makes it a blessing skill that costs 432 mana. how do you cast it when you have only 54 unreserved mana left? do you sacrifice any other other auras or is there some trick for that? Thanks.
19:47
"Post overpowered character...that needs another character or does fuck all"
How did you combat the a"Divine Blessing" changes. In the POB ots a key mechanic for Wrath, but cannot be done anymore? I am new to aurabot so may have missed something. But it is asking for 500 mana to cast wrath.
19:47
would you happen to know if aurabot/summoner hybrid builds are viable? i know they used to be popular in the past, but it seems like aura effect was nerfed too hard to be comparable to a generic summoner build.
I've never properly played a minion build so I don't know how viable it'd be. Minions and aura effect have been nerfed pretty hard recently, so I wouldn't expect a hybrid setup to be that good.
@@Haloplasm ah okay. Probably the strat is to try to get additional auras vs stacking effect. like power of purpose timeless jewel to lower the cost of divine blessing or something
Hey! Amazing video, and aurabot guide aswell! All auras up and i have the 3000c investment. But i cant seem to "pop" Haste? I cant find the flask on trade site and i need 774 mana to pop it. You are talking about it around 20 minutes in, but thats not helping, since we are not taking that passives in the 3000c investment tree. Can you help :)
It sounds like you don't have the Bismuth Flask properly set up. Post your PoB in the #build-help channel in the discord and someone will explain exactly what you need to do.
Hey great guide! Im having trouble of finding out how do you run 3 simultaneous life reserved auras. I m on the the late game setup, have pretty much all the gear and passive points but determination/grace eats up 83.75% of my life regardless. Cant even use one of them with vitality, i keep messing with PoB but i cant find what im missing
Check which items your skill gems are socketed in with the PoB version you're trying to emulate. Seik laid out which gems should go in which links with what specific items very thoroughly.
Hi, sorry if its a dumb question. For the aurabot, how does she mitigate chaos damage since she runs auras on prism guardian? I may be missing something but i dont see a way chaos damage wont kill her?
he runs the flask and with the passives + a jewel it gets 100% uptime
10:47
hey nice detailed guide .
which version you need to farm simulacrum comfortably paired with your carry simulacrum version
The ~500c version should perform fine for that, though you may want to invest a bit into getting better ES on your rings/belt
@@Haloplasm cool thanks for answering
Silly question to ask but is there any version of this that revives the old Aura bot/SRS Hybrid from the rampage league era (2.2)?
That was long before either Seik or I started playing so I have no idea
hey i am new to aurabot. i am somewhere between the 500c and 3000c build.... wondering how you get to use haste in the end build ? dont you need mana to chast it and my build and your pob? have very low reserved mana ?
I think what you're looking for is at 19:47
Lol yes ty. I am an idjitt 😅
how do you deal with chaos dmg i just fall over. the flask is up by my ES just drops
Without being able to see your build there's no way for me to know what's going wrong. Post your setup in the #build-help channel in the discord server if you are still having problems.
hey, why not add quality to the reduced mana flask?
It increases the flask's duration, which increases the duration that it can't gain charges from the enkindling orb enchant.
There should be extra room in the chest right? could that be a decent spot for 2g snipers mark mark on hit?
We don't have any extra socket space.
@@Haloplasm Ah I see it now I missed one of the Body armor sections since it was broken up. Thanks
Hey!! im going duo this new exp, and this time, saddly im going to be the slave, will you upgrade your guide for 3.20?
yes
amazing video. actually makes grab a buddy of mine and try it out later in the league for some test runs and maybe league start it next league
I wonder should i or carry watchout for any added flat dmg of any other elemebt or phys or something i should not have on rare item to rip our duo setup?
You want to have flat lightning as carry but it's explained in the carry guide it doesnt rip the build or anything
If you're playing our 3.19 Aurabot/Inquis setup there's no way for flat added damage to negatively impact either build.
"Still being worked on, will be finished by Tuesday" any update on this?
Trade folders should be updated in the description now
@@Haloplasm Thanks. Appreciate it.
Do y have idea how to rebuild this for 90% res and all auras on?
Technically possible, but you need mirror tier investment.
I believe the smite aura still triggers even if the smite attack is missed. Are you sure you need accuracy?
The attack needs to hit according to wording on the skill gem
@@Haloplasm i just tested it. The strike can miss but the secondary beam aoe cant miss. You can remove the accuracy support.
I just messaged Seik about it, it'd be really nice not to have to worry about Accuracy.
Seik just tested it and he says that both the melee portion and the ranged portion of the attack are affected by accuracy, and that you don't get the buff if you don't hit one of those. He just tested this by equipping a bunch of negative accuracy uniques to get 5% chance to hit and then trying to hit enemies with both or either of the strike and AoE.
If you had different results, can you share your methodology?
@@Haloplasm you were right. After testing again against higher tier maps and intentionally lowering accuract to 5%, the buff does not appear unless you hit. It does seem worth the link provided we have the sockets. Although, i think with precision, the aurabot has above 50% accuracy. Well give it a shot. Thanks for testing again.
small question, can you share your loot filters to the league start with us?
I've always just used Neversink's filter, but Seik has convinced me to try tytykiller's leveling filter this league
@@Haloplasm how'd the new filter go? I used neversink's myself and would be interested in the perspective.
i was playing lots of minion builds b4 but with the 3.19 minion butchering going on,i decided to start cf glad in 3.19,went well ofc,but i have a friend who really wanted to play with me,but he is kinda new (500h on steam) and i never played aurabot b4,so i told him its too complicated to fix all the reservation and if there is no guide to get me through this,i wont do this. same for the carry build (i had no idea,since i only played solo). long story short,i found this video,and we started it together in deli everywhere event,why? bc if its working there,its gonna work in 3.20. now with the manifesto of AN "gone" the next league should be even easier. and its working for now in the event,but we are only in low tier yellow maps rn,well .. 98% deli maps on a budget and no trade market ...can be cruel :D but its working much better than i thought,considering we are both absolute noobs at this duo thing and i am not sure if my friend is an up- or downgrade to minion AI :D thats why i wont start the next league as a duo with him,but i am 100% sure we will do this as a second char. and maybe,after some practice,in 3.21 start as a duo. so thanks for that!
btw,even tho the video is long,it was so easy to understand and follow
CF Glad is still one of my favorite builds out there. The clear speed and bleed explosions are so satisfying.
If you asked Seik I'm sure he'd say I'm a downgrade to minion AI because minions don't ever flame dash into Synthete slam so I can't blame your friend. :P I'm glad you enjoyed our setup!
@@Haloplasm we reached lvl 90 in the event :D we gave up after that,i bricked so many maps with vaaling (reflect ele) and i didnt want to run yellow maps from 90 to 95. but overall it was a blast.
we had an encounter with some scary AN mobs (2 of them at once) and even tho i was trying to tank it with my aurabot,at some point my friend stood still and let them hit him,i saw the AN mob charge some delirium bs attack and he didnt move,so i screamed "MOVE!" and then he died and said xD "i didnt want to move bc of corrupted blood" so he confused cb with bleeding. thats what i was working with. and he didnt understand why i didnt want to use soul link xD
(i really wanted to reach 90 for the event so i sacrificed him xD)
i really didnt want to get hit on the head everytime he does stupid things,sounds like some fetish torture to me xD
even tho we reached 90,i was kinda sad at the end,bc i wanted to get to the next gearing step with the aurabot,but there was no point,bc the event is going to end soon and there was no trade. my late mapping setup was around 600c or something like that. everything was so expensive and nobody was buying anything. (unique gloves went for 40-80c,which i didnt buy bc of that but found later on my second char,mf necro xD) never got my hands on a prism guardian :<
overall,since it was my first aurabot and his first carry build,i was absolutely mindblown how crazy good this setup is. i compared the gear/time investment with other builds i played and i was like ... just mindblown,since we did 85% deli with no problems,we kinda started to struggle in red tiers when deli was over 94% but at that point the carry was still wearing tabula. so yeah. absolutely crazy how strong this setup is. i kept wondering how good this would have been without deli or in a real league with decent trade and crafting options. that must be some insane stuff xD
so again. thank you!
For EXP rewards sacrifices must be made :P
Prism Guardian is where the Aurabot really comes online, a lot of other Aurabot start with that item in their cheapest setup. Turning on your Purities and having all your auras in place makes the duo ascend to the next level.
Reading about how well the builds worked for you guys is super rewarding! We've got some improvements planned for 3.20 but we're holding off building the characters until patch notes hit this time.
Best of luck in 3.20 :D
how to get my aura bot to 90 max ress?
is there a way to utilize doryani's prototype on the support?
Use it on **A** support, maybe? On this support, absolutely not.
Hi all, how does an aurabot complete/survive labyrinth trials?
By doing it with their carry
Funny thing in the past iv spend more than 200ex on a build just to be able to clear wave 30sim with one or two deaths xD and still i havent killed a single uber boss amd i got carried by HH buffs most of the time in 100deli maps while randomly tpying and jumping with the annoing hh buff and now i hear i can do all this with my friend in just a fraction of the price
200 ex should be easy enough for all content in the game 3 times over tho?
Easily, probably more like 6-7 times over
wait what, you guys have a spark guide??
Yes, it's designed to be played with the aurabot :)
top video, gj
This guide work for 3.20 duo start with inquisitor?
That's what it's been designed for
Why is not divine shield? It is very good defensive mechanic
There are lots of very good things we had to pass up. It's not point-efficient for us at this low stage of investment.
maybe you make another giga build for the aurabot.... can you trade the juju for an ashes at any time?
You'd have to redo all your reservations and it might not be enough to let you run another 50% aura. It's definitely the best endgame item for the Aurabot though.
I dont have pc to check it all, I did my best to put in a note on my cellphone, can someone tell me all masterys ?
The Masteries constantly change as you swap between different versions of the build. If you're looking for information on a specific version, screenshot the passive tree and any info you have and put it in the PoE channel in the discord server. That's the best way to get the specific information you need.
What is the best class for aurabot or doesn't matter? i have necro lvl 97
Scion, as the guide says
@@Haloplasm thanks :)
Is simulacrum good currency as duo ???or do yougot some tips
They are quite good. We should have a currency strat guide out Thursday.
Is there updated guide for 3.22?
The PoBs were updated, see my latest video
why does generosity link with a molten shell?
They can be in the same link setup without affecting each other
hope i could find a duo to play with
Best of luck!
how do you deal with bleeding?
Mostly by getting corrupted blood immunity from a jewel or the passive tree and having enough regen not to care about normal bleeds.
What ascensions did you take
Pathfinder/Champion
aren't you streaming anymore?
I didn't stream today, I'll be doing a PoB review stream tomorrow
better trading coming soon, please?
Just now added to the description
@@Haloplasm noice! thx gl hf!
GGG need to delete this playstyle and make grouping more enjoyable for the majority of people. Grouping is a lot more fun in D2 and D3 than this game.
Having multiple zdps, 1 aoe dps, and 1 bosser is more enjoyable to you?
