How To Achieve Mirror Farming Success Within Sanctum In POE 3.23? - Penance Brand Occultist Build

Dec 23, 2023

This is my insane Sanctum build for POE 3.23 Affliction League — the Penance Brand of Dissipation Occultist.

It boasts considerable damage, capable of swiftly eliminating all guards and Sanctum floor bosses. This build’s speed is impressive, and it’s relatively more affordable compared to other Sanctum builds, requiring only around 40-45 Divine Orbs.

Sanctum proves to be perhaps the most straightforward method to accumulate hundreds of Divine Orbs in Path of Exile when utilizing a powerful build. For this cost, you gain substantial damage, excellent movement speed, and an uncomplicated gameplay style.

Upon personal assessment, this build efficiently farms Uber bosses in a mere 2-3 seconds. In my experience, this could very well be the finest Sanctum build I’ve ever utilized in Path of Exile.

How To Achieve Mirror Farming Success Within Sanctum In POE 3.23? - Penance Brand Occultist Build

Ascendancy

Firstly, why Occultist?

The answer is simple: because of double curse and a lot of damage per power charges. More damage is the number one priority in Sanctum.

Items

We have only two rare items in this build. All other POE Items are unique.

As for the weapon, we use cheap Void Battery Wands for plus power charge, more critical strike chance, and cast speed. This is our main damage source.

As for shield, we use the unique Malachai’s Loop, which provides +2 power charges and more damage.

As for helmet, we use Heatshiver because it gives us a lot of extra fire damage. Despite the slight nerf in the 3.23 patch notes, it’s still good for this build.

As for body armor, we use Dialla’s Malefaction. It’s crucial for this build, giving us +2 levels to all gems socketed in red sockets and +30% quality to all gems socketed in green sockets. Gems don’t care about socket color. I have 3 red sockets and 3 green sockets. And we put Penance Brand of Dissipation in red, Empower level 4 in red, and Concentrated Effect also in red.

The gloves (Bramble Caress) should have a lot of strength and dexterity. We craft 25% of physical damage converted to lightning, and it’s better to have maximum life and one elemental resistance. Then, we craft 2 Eldritch Implicits for cold exposure hit and a chance to shock enemies for more damage.

As for boots, we use the unique Relakesh’s Impatience, providing a maximum of power charges and 30% movement speed.

As for amulet, we use Badge of the Brotherhood for power charges, allocated with Infused for one more power charge. And it’s our damage.

To unique rings, Call of the Brotherhood, it offers a lot of elemental damage and conversion.

The last item, Rage Cord vise, also needs a lot of strength and dexterity, maximum life, and 1 elemental resistance.

Totally, in this build, you should have 155 dexterity and 155 strengthAncient Rend jewel should be with maximum life and Critical Modifiers. Of course, if you are missing something, please use your POE Currency to buy it in time!

Flasks

About flasks, just copy all my flasks:

  • Divine Life Flask of Assuaging
  • Taste of Haste Sapphire Flask
  • Continuous Quicksilver Flask of Cheetah
  • Transgressor’s Silver Flask of Incision
  • Atziri’s Promise Amethyst Flask

Passive Tree

Now, let’s discuss the passive tree.

We have 2 identical large cluster jewels in this build with Prismatic HeartSnowstorm, and Widespread Destruction.

Additionally, there are 3 identical medium cluster jewels with Pressure Points and Quick Gateway. Don’t forget, these clusters also offer bonus attributes and resistances.

Jewels

There are 5 unique jewels and 1 rare jewel in this build. The first unique jewel, That Which Was Taken, provides Critical Strike Multiplier.

The next 2 jewels are Forbidden Flesh and Forbidden Flame with Shaper of Storms.

Additionally, we utilize Timeless Jewels for Elemental Resistances and Brand Damage, and Inner Conviction for Power Charges.

The last unique jewel is Watcher’s Eye, granting increased lightning damage while affected by Race and cold penetration while affected by Hatred. However, another Watcher’s Eye providing damage buffs while affected by either Race or Hatred or both is an alternative option.

As for the one rare jewel, it can serve any purpose needed. Personally, I required additional attributes, hence I opted for 17 strength and 9 dexterity alongside additional Critical Strike Multiplier for more damage.

Charms

Regarding Charms, I’ve used only 2 open slots for more damage.

The first charm (Assassin’s Lupine Charm) boosts my Critical Strike Chance when at maximum power charges due to the functionality of our Riveted boots.

The second charm (Assassin’s Lupine Charm of the Deadeye) focuses on increased damage per power charge. These charms can be replicated or substituted for attributes and critical strike modifiers.

Defense

In terms of defense, this build lacks substantial defense and has low life. However, the risk of death is minimized if the brand skill is consistently utilized against guards or the final floor boss to prevent being one-shot.

There’s almost a 100% chance to freeze enemies (around 99%), providing an advantage. Against the last floor boss, employing brand skills along with Haste Aura, Frostbite, Elemental Weakness for approximately 1 second leads to the boss’s swift demise.

This build is remarkably swift and potent. Running and using brands results in guards perishing in a mere second, a phenomenon also observed with floor bosses.

Spectres

Furthermore, this build includes the respec skill gems, allowing for 2 specters. I employ new corpses for this purpose.

The first spectre, Perfect Pain Artist, augments Critical Strike Damage. And the Zealotry aura is remarkably powerful.

The next spectre is a regular Naval Officer for precision aura.

Totally, these 2 spectres cost only 40 Chaos Orbs, so it’s really cheap and easy to buy.
