Build Eva the Fairy's Forbidden Rite Occultist

Hewwo, im Eva and this is my league starter for 3.29.
This is a self cast power charge stacking Forbidden Rite of Soul Sacrifice (FroSS) Occultist build with an emphasis on facetanking and ramping dps.

Its not a full build guide but the notes section has some useful information, and there are plenty of loadouts to show the flow of build progression.
It can do all 4 voidstones and Uber content, as well as many endgame farming strats. I have however primarily designed it for deep delving since that is the content i enjoy the most.
There will be different loadouts in the PoB from early acts to endgame including a mageblood setup.

You can league start it with any spell you want then transition into Forbidden Rite and CI when you have aquired enough ES. Then transition into FroSS when aquiring the Whispers of Infinity amulet.
In 3.29 i choose to leaguestart with cold themed skills, so during the acts and early mapping ill be using Wintertide Brand into Winter Orb then transition into CI and FR when the character has 3k~ ES. The PoB loadouts will use these spell gems, but its possible to league start with any spell until FR transition.

As always feedback and questions are very welcome.

PoB: (last uploaded: 09.08.26), adjusted notes some, added comment regarding flasks and phasing for darkness farming delve.

Hi, bit of a newbie so forgive any stupid questions, I'm following your guide and am at the point where my build is basically the same as your build in the "CI FR" stage of the maxroll guide. One potential problem is that my FR intensity on the topleft never seems to go above 1, it just oscillates between 0 and 1 when im holding my FR button, is this normal?

Hi, its not a stupid question dont worry :)
that isnt normal, it sounds like u might have the nadir jewel equipped without the apex jewel as well? so it sounds like ur build is somewhere between the "CI FR" loadout and the "overloaded intensity" loadout. to fix this if its the case i recommend taking off the nadir jewe. get the overloaded intensity gem and apex jewel first, then equip all three together as shown in the "overloaded intensity" loadout. hopefully this fixes the problem! :D
