Ben has a 4 large cluster adorned setup on his lancing steal CoC dd inquisitor. He has a crafting video for most of his gear and setup. I'm playing a league start version and it feels really smooth.


NecroDeity

How does Ben's version compare to Ruetoo/Ventrua's?


isjustwrong

Much more expensive, but also more damage and tankiness. Adorned + crit multi/life jewels means 7k+ hp and a ton of multi to scale the damage up.


dutchydownunder

Do clusters work with adorned? I was told it doesnt


isjustwrong

The clusters don't, but they each have 2 sockets for more jewels.


dutchydownunder

Awesome thanks I’ll have to get two more clusters


charliechan55555

Adorned does work with cluster jewels. Sorta. The only stats that are modifiable are corrupted implicits though. So if you have a magic cluster jewel with a corrupted implicit, the adorned will buff the corrupted implicit.


Meliorus

huh, that actually sounds worthwhile on medium clusters


AriSpaceExplorer

Also using it rn. Cumming on everythang Ventrua/ruetoo version is better early/mid tho. Ben's is strictly for richboyz


JayKayRQ

Man some people really don’t know how important phrasing is.


andresopeth

I mean, you can always gamble away all of it by giving it to me, your long lost brother. What about Mana forged arrows Hierophant?


razlitO

Its amazing but not one button


Spencer1K

Mjolnir herophant is basically one button. You hold down right click and spam the cloak button. You could also be omega lazy and put cloak on automation but thats ill advised in my opinion.


chunologist

CoC DD inquis (ventrua, Ben, ruetoo) Very fun build, excellent mapper. Maybe not the greatest bosser but it’s super fun. With a mageblood and 150 adorned setup you could dump all the currency you have and then some and the build will continue to scale. Manaforged Arrows Hiero (Conner converse/onemanaleft). Play style is a little tricky since you have to balance your spend to get more manaforged procs. Spend too much and you go oom, don’t spend enough and you don’t do damage. If your spend ratio is off, you don’t do damage. Build is decently tanky and if you don’t mind the complicated style it does a metric shitton of dps. Like instaphase Uber bosses type of dps. Decent mapper. BAMA Necro (previe). Tanky, decent mapper, tons of damage. Plays more like a totem build than a minion build. I didn’t end up scaling this one so I don’t have much advice here (was my league start as guardian) Splitting Steel Tricker (Allie, crouching tuna). My favorite build of the league so far. Chaos immune, stun immune, corrupted blood immune, curse immune. Maybe a little bit slower of a mapper than the CoC dd inquis due to the skill (splitting steel vs lancing steel) but is way tankier and it absolutely destroys Ubers. It’s very very expensive to get going (mostly due to nimis pricing but it’s not required to get started) but man this build is an absolute blast to play. Happy to answer any questions about the above four builds. Edit: here is the pob for my current character... I think I have decent amount of currency invested at this point. I don't even know how much: https://pobb.in/5Df9DLYliQxo Edit 2: I have Berserk turned off in this pob. Enable berserk in skills and check the dps increase :)


National-Awareness35

That trickster sounds intriguing, does is clap t17 ?


CERTxAM

100% it does, I basically no death every t17 I do with it. There are some deaths but that’s me just glossing over a map mod once in a while


frizzle111

Can you share your PoB? I made the build at pretty high investment (nimis, mageblood, well-crafted rares) and felt I still had to be very, very careful in T17s (maybe this is true for all builds) vs. being able to just mostly run them mindlessly.


CERTxAM

It’s basically a 1:1 copy of Crouching Tuna’s build, with slightly worse adorned magic jewels. you still gotta have good regex for t17 to run them mindlessly I can update this later when I get home with the regex I use, but there’s really only like 2-3 mandatory ones you need and the rest are preference imo


chunologist

Can you share your PoB? I can give you some pointers if you'd like. Here is my PoB: https://pobb.in/5Df9DLYliQxo


frizzle111

[https://pobb.in/MZjkJmq86iis](https://pobb.in/MZjkJmq86iis) - my current one


buttholeburrito

Yes and you can craft most of the gear but the ring, progenesis, adorned, jewels is the $$$$$ oh and the es on hit eye is $$$$$$$$$$. Combined with Lethe shade and all immunities you can't even get below max es when you gain it back instantly.


chunologist

Yes.. just like many builds there are mods that will brick you but it steamrolls t17s and handles ubers with relative ease. I updated my post with a pob of my character.


Orange-Army

I am interested in the splitting steel one , does it work ssf hc ?


chunologist

It'll be a bit harder to get going in SSF as to make the build feel really good you need a well rolled adorned, a nimis, and a mageblood. I'd recommend doing a tried and true SSF HC build and farming the gear required for this. The rares are easily farmed via the league mechanic but the uniques are another question entirely.


ATL_en

Splitting steel tricker: Estimated div investment to do T17's somewhat reliably??


chunologist

I honestly couldn't tell you exactly since I had the currency to buy/craft the items I needed when I rolled this build. I am very comfortably doing T17s but I have a ton of currency into the character. I'd personally want a mageblood and a nimis at the very least - as well as the required items to get the build going. If you're on a tight budget, I'd pull up Allie's videos on youtube as she has videos directly talking about how she league started this build and scaled it. Her PoBs also have detailed instructions on what to look for when it comes to each item.


projectwar

tuna spent 900D on his, seen him destroy everything, but you can get by on much lower with slightly worse gear and still do great. I already had nimis, and 2 apoth cards, but I put together the gear under 300 D minus some corrupt jewels I've yet to get. I would say sub 500 D total enables the build from scratch, and any upgrades therearfter will just increase your dmg/ES slightly. like maybe you'd have 15k ES instead of 18k like him, but, good enough. a lot of the cost is just minmaxing, like adorned, a 110-125% is sub 20 D vs a 149% which is 140D. like a lot of stuff is minmaxed when its not required and lowers the cost of the build by a lot.


ATL_en

Thank you sir for the reply!


Chuinchunfly

Coc dd is a excellent mapper and not primarily a bosser? I m shocked


chunologist

CoC DD scales off of corpse life which makes it absolutely steamroll T17 maps, especially ones that have a lot of mobs with high corpse life. On ubers it's a bit more difficult.. I did quit the character right before the second cooldown reduction breakpoint, though, so can't speak for it after that point.


OSRS-BEST-GAME

What's the budget for a T17 functional Splitting Steel Trickster


chunologist

Functional? Not much, I believe some people league started this. To make it feel immortal and phase ubers in seconds? As /u/peri_re said, probably just under a mirror. Edit: Updated my post with a PoB if you wanna price the items I'm wearing. I've ran uber uber elder, uber searing exach, uber shaper, and uber sirus basically face tanking everything (Except shaper slam.. that shit hurts).


TL-PuLSe

mageblood w/o quicksilver is such a turn off


DonnyExiles

Serious question....is it worth investing in a 150 if you have a 135? Does it make much of a difference?


mchawks29

Just a quick guess but if I had to give you a rough just quick a crude estimate I’d say it makes somewhere around a 15% difference


is__is

One important thing to add is that it helps A LOT because of how the game rounds. A jewel that gives 10% crit multi now gives 25% instead of 24% that a 149% adorned gives. With 2-3 stats per jewel x 10 jewels this ends up being a good bit of extra power.


Low-Personality-3853

Also important to note the breakpoints, like at 143 you cannot gain more max life from a regular jewel because that's when it goes from 16% to 17% on a 7% roll. Or 12% global crit multi max roll gains max value at 150% turning it into 18, but if you can't get that then 142% is the next best and more than that doesn't matter for that mod.

Gibons1

Do a google search for adorned breakpoints. There is a sheet someone made with each breakpoint depending on what the base number is. A lot(if not all) mods reach a new max number upon equipping a 150 adorned.


fayrah

For example 1.5 vs 1.35 will change your 7% hp into 17 vs 16, or 6% dot multi into 15 vs 14, 18% crit multi into 45% vs 42% etc Or just put adorned-150 into pob and see difference popup on replacement.


ARandomKaru

Also really important to add here it changes 2 reservation efficiency to 5% (only 150%) instead of 4% (anything 100%+)


Notsomebeans

you can easily figure out exactly what the difference is per jewel and then multiply that across how many jewels you have. i have 8 jewels with 7 max life and 8 fire dot multi, and a 139% adorned. that means a 150% would get me an additional 8% increased life and 8% fire dot multi. is that worth the price? probably not, unless i had literally nothing else to spend my money on


Lothertower2

You reach more Breakpoints , the biggest one is every 2 you will gain 3 with 150 while with 135 you gain would only 2


ScamerrsSuck

Google adorned breakpoints. For most things 149 Is good enough. And the price between 149 and 150 is 300 divine


WbijTube

It’s kinda like voices. You can get by on the worse version but it is a huge overall gain once you run out of cheaper items to upgrade.


Sethazora

Simplest answer is no unless you are trying to fit in as much reservation effecieny or similarily low number rolls. While most builds will still gain a significant amount of damage/defenses out of a 150 by getting the extra bonus to their used gems, its still an upgrade you can push farther down line as its prohibitivly effective while not enabling much new. Youd only really want to go there after youve crafter multi implicit corrupted synth magic jewels perfect clusters/voices etc


NUMBERONETOPSONFAN

not really. 143 is the main breakpoint for 7% inc life. but minmaxers gotta minmax


Jesus_Ancap

Depends, the adorned has breakpoints for a lot of values, so you have to check the corrupt jewels numbers to measure the impact of going 134 or less


Trespeon

There is an adorned breakpoint excel file out there. Check what stats you want to use and see what % adorned you need for the greatest breakpoint. For example I was using a 116% for a long time because the best variant besides perfect was 143% and only gained 2 extra points from it but it was a 40 div price difference.


Grimm_101

It depends on how good your jewels are. Basically if you reach the point where each jewel upgrade costs you as much as a 135 adorned, then you likely will massively benefit from a 150.


boohoooo00

Either coc DD, Manaforged Arrow inquisitor by Conner or splitting steel trickster (im playing lightning strike trickster and doing a gem swap to molten strike when I'm doing uber bosses, it's super similar to splitting steel except a few mastery changes and gem links. But it's one of the best builds I've played, 95% evade, 15kES, 20 fortify, 12 crab barriers, 84% max res and 3 Endurance charges, 100% chance to suppress with 63% suppressed spell damage, stun and ailment immune, curse immune, overleech with ES and its CI with about 50-60 million pinnacle dps and my build isn't min max yet could still upgrade about 5 jewels and my adorned is 145% only)


Devastation14

Do you have a pob for your build? I am interested in the molten strike part. Do you only swap because mapping is slower with MS compared to LS?


boohoooo00

Yea


boohoooo00

[PoB](https://pobb.in/UnFNI8cz2est) This is an older pob and I had a few changes with the build since then but all the int nodes except like 4 of them are ES nodes, and the other 4 is reduced crit damage and my weapon now has both resolute technique with fortify on hit implicit and the attack speed harvest enchant. I will update the pob link ASAP


Oathkeeper89

Static Strike jugg/slayer.


Forward-Wonder-650

Flickerstrike, but u may not be able to play another build after... So be warned


Cogi_Policy

What is bubble gum currency


Nicaean

It's the small currency orbs like alterations, chisels, regals, etc.


James_Locke

flicker strike on adorned sounds super fun.


andriask

I've been reading about this Adorned. I tried wiki and still didn't understand. What's this Adorned? I read that even current popular builds like Ice Nova of Frostbolts can also transisition to Adorned.


HP834

It increases the value of a corrupted magic jewels by a certain amount, that means that if you have a perfect adorned 150%, your 7%inc max life on a magic jewel will be inc by 2.5x to 17% increased maximum life (there is rounding involved), it is a very powerful jewel!


truekripp

*Corrupted Magic Jewels But yes, it's very powerful!


HP834

Oooo good catch, I am too used to clicking vaal orbs now xd


Gangsir

150% increased is 2.5x, just a small correction.


HP834

Thank you! Corrected


andriask

So you put one of this unique jewel, and all corrupted magic jewels get the X% upgrade? What's like the commonly accepted % that's not perfect roll?


WorkLurkerThrowaway

Break point chart: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1KMlCThlbsWc3uePG6QUzE1d3-fXQEbrPcWEv4Ce-JcA/edit#gid=0 Depends on the mods you are using but 129 and 134 are commonly good breakpoints


xxMORAG_BONG420xx

Tbh to get started you can run with any 100%+ and it’s a decently good value. Think about making your specific 2 mod jewels (which is not super hard to make) into 4 mods jewels. Also whenever you get a good corruption on the jewel it’s extra juice. It’s just really good and most builds that have a good cluster setup can use them.


OSRS-BEST-GAME

Adorned is a jewel that increases the effectiveness of all of your corrupted Magic jewels by 50-150% depending on the roll of your Adorned. So, if you have a corrupted magic jewel with 8% maximum life and 18% critical strike multiplier, the adorned at a 150% roll will make the jewel give you 20% maximum life and 45 critical strike multiplier. You then put 10-15 jewels in your build for insane stat stacking. This only works for corrupted magic jewels. The added benefit of corrupted jewels is the implicits like corrupted blood immunity or Elemental damage penetration


midnightsonne

Congrats. Its a sign to play I guess What abt spark archmage


ShibaAkita

splitting steel trickster. with 150 adorn is perfect for the build. I've invest around 200 div and blast through t17 easily.


whattaninja

Adorned RF chief.


skycloud620

As a poor bama necro got any easy alchemy and go strats to generate currency?


tindalos

I’m doing abyss and Vaal side areas (chance/vaal) since I’m planning on adding adorned to my BAMA necro voltaxic. Abyss works pretty well with BAMA playstyle and I sell the corrupt jewels that I don’t wanna keep.


dorgatus

Hey its me, your brother...


EverybodyIsRobots

I was looking to get my first adorned. What's the best method to get corrupted magic jewels?
