So with 1.3 including my 2nd and final Creator Unique Executioner’s Tithe I really enjoyed all the theorycrafting leading up to the patch.
I did say on several occasions that I would release my own setup a few days after the patch went live. And here it is. I am not quite sure how much more I will optimize this character and setup this patch because I want to test and try a plethora of other builds as well.
I did prioritize defense over offense, because the build already does a lot of damage and I never had the feeling that I needed more damage. I think this is the build I died the least amount of time on. up to 500c pushing I think I died like 2 or 3 times. From a pure damage perspective there is a lot of room for improvements, but farming 500c is already very comfortable anyway.

Aspirational Planner: https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/oy5j9X2o
A couple of aspirational Uniques would be:
3LP Boneclamor Barbute, 3LP Decayed Skull, 2LP Seed of Ekkidrasil, 2LP Null Portent
All of these would allow Flat mana and %inc. Mana as prefixes, because they are not Acolyte specific.
Here is a video of a regular Aberroth:
I did attempt a few Uber Aberroth to see how far of my current setup is and it looked doable if I could get a 2LP Grasp of the Blood Mage Mana and Hybrid Health and generally upgrade all T6 exalted items to T7.
Overall I am quite happy with my Item and what you can do with it. I know there are countless different setups you can do, but leading up to 1.3 release I didn’t saw any setup that was close to mine.
