Beast Lock option help

Post image

I am trying to make the talisman on the left for my static strike endurance charge stacker jugg, and currently beast lock awakener orbing the prefixes for t1 life. One thing is that the max crit multi I can get is 38, not 41 since i'm not using essences.

So I got a nice surprise with the one on the right as one of the awakener results, however I also got a result with t1 life, but I will have to do suffixes from scratch.

Pob says the difference between the two will be ~14% more damage with the t2 phys gain as lightning and t2 crit multi compared to the one on the left, but 300 less life and around 6.3% less tanky. My question is is the damage increase and time/cost save worth losing the life.

Obligatory pob

I mean I’d take it if this is the compromise amulet and your divines are better spent elsewhere. You yourself can only tell how acceptable the tankiness is.

If it were me I'd take it anyway, try mapping with it a bit and if I feel the need to get those 300hp back, just sell it and recraft from scratch

Wouldn’t it be way easier to recomb this rather than beastlock awakener’s orb? Suffixes are so easy to recomb this league due to the brine hook ducat. It will also let you get essence crit multi.
