I can't thank you enough. I watched about 4-5 guides before this and almost all of them were just walkthroughs talking about which boons or afflictions they were taking. They would say "This pact is good because we can take lose 50% max resolve pacts later" and I would be wondering what the hell resolve is. Your guide is the first I have seen that actually breaks down the basics of how sanctum works and doesn't just assume someone is already familiar with the mechanics. Thank u!
I'm sanctum runner for all leagues when it was available and when I wanted to tell my friends to how Sanctum works, there was 0 useful videos anywhere, only generic explanation. But man, you video GOAT, thanks for doing that!
@@ufaklik5781 occu Hb early on, into power charge stacking. The only expensive item is Ralakesh, but judging by that this will be melee league and reduced popularity for HB (at least one that use Ralakesh, mapping trickster don't use them, and trickster HB is the only popular forcing HB that I've seen by content creators) + recent fix for Eternal Damnation, they should cost kinda low (aprx from one to few divines early on). But you can even farm it without Ralakesh boots, only problem that any tome above lvl 72 will be difficult. With Ralakesh + PC shield + doedre's gloves + tabula + doedre's hat + +1 lvl to all/chaos skill gems shield/wand/amulet, you can easily farm 75 lvl sanctum with helmet relic and it will generate it you a lot of currency. Then you'll have covenant/ward body + battery wand and visage, so even 83 tomes will be easy for you. Edit: early on medium clusters is godsend into damage increase.
Damnn this excellent guide gives me, a beginner, the energy to study and start trying this content in PoE. Thanks a lot, Phaze!! Hope to see more of your guides/videos here!!
Hey man This Content is Gold i will recommend it to my community ( i had to watch it multiple times , so many info in it , those boss abilities were so useful to me )
Absolute S+ tier guide! Very clean editing and super insightful, altough at times a bit too fast and had to rewind a couple times to see what was going on. Especially at 13:30 where you buy from divina.
Great video, now I have to take a break. My head hurts, I will have to come back and rewatch this step by step. Man did you have a pace there. Most explenatory videos lose me after 10 minutes or so, not your video! Great video! (I know I already said that)
extremely good and concise guide. thanks for posting. i skipped sanctum in sanctum league and haven't touched it since. wanted to give it a real try this time to see what the hype was about and it actually is a really fun game mode once you understand it.
Okay so I'm a returning player and I had no idea what Sanctum was about, tried searching for well made but not too long video but couldnt find any. But this is perfect detailed guide which also isnt 3 hour long video. Well edited and well spoken, brilliant! Thanks for your hard work :)
Man what a great guide. Found out most of this stuff by myself by painful trial and error, stumbled upon this video while looking for shortcuts. Gold for people that wanna get into sanctum.
without a doubt the best sanctum guide out there, not some streamer clipping a part of their stream saying nothing. the only thing he could expand on is relics but its fine u learn as u go
@6:25 there's actually 3 shortcuts in that room. Straight after you've completed the first shortcut and run past where the fireballs spawn you will see a corner (in this vid the corner is up top). You can flame dash etc over that
I think its worth mentioning how impactful Inspiration from Relics is. I'm playing the room revealed strategy atm and all my Relics give ~30 Inspiration on Sanctum start, which means I start the run with like 300-something Inspiration, which in turn lets me go for the handshake rooms early and click the "reduce max resolve by x%" options to try and find duplication/all-seeing-eye boons. You really want a consistent source of Inspiration on your relic setup imo Except maybe in merchant strat cuz you simply can't fit it in together with coin/cost related mods, but that's fine because you'll end up with tons of inspiration boons anyway once you find a merchant.
I've watched a lot of guides for PoE over the years,and this is without a doubt the highest quality, most informative, and least confusing/bloat heavy guide I've seen yet. I watched this through one time, ran my FIRST ever Sanctum and... unfortunately died to Lycia final phase when she was 33% hp because I dashed into the tornado lmaooo Amazing guide, thank you! Also quick question, if you were to ignore the Hour Of Divinity/Gilded Chalice Uniques, is it still worth running the medium or higher tier strategies, considering the Relics don't run out and are always active?
Good info! Id like to add 2 more relic strats that kinda go under the radar. 2slot coins on start/chests 10% double coin with convert coins to relics/tainted currency.. With no rng ull still get ~5k coins, usually hit 8-9k and the cap is 10k. Cheap relics and very good early league farm. 2nd one is stack monster dmg relics with the unique relics that hide sanctum rooms. They usually increase boss hp, so helps to farm those tomes early league too, cheap relics as well..e.g. For wind of fate staff
TL;DR: Merchant choice relics are the expensive, but safe build for Sanctum. Great pick for low DPS or generalist builds. I highly recommend the +2 merchant choice relics if you're the kind of person who wants to run Sanctum, but doesn't like or want to run a dedicated build for it. Take myself for example: I run poison SRS from league start to finish, because it's a very cost-efficient build and tanky enough for most content in the game. It doesn't perform very well in Sanctum due to the need for poison stacks to build up so I tend to clear them a lot more slowly by comparison. The merchant choice relics compensate for that massively by giving me tons of buffs.
awesome video, but when you start running sanctum at league start you wont have any relics, how do you manage a run without those bonuses? or do you just try to buy relics early in league before you start running sanctum
Hi Phaze, really like this guide . I am thinking to build a hexblast minner and run Sanctum... will be a good idea? or what´s builds do you think it is good for this mechanic?
If you decide to make a blight guide. Please add the best way to get lots of blight ravaged maps to drop I’m having issues sustaining blight ravaged maps and need guidance!
Currently, Hexblast is the king of Sanctum. An early Dreadarc, or maybe Blasphemy should get Hexblast going early. No idea what the supply of Forbidden Tomes will look like in HC Trade though
Thanks for sharing this, i want to start farm sanctum, but im awfull at dodging and i dont know which build to do atm, i've already an hirop. lv92 there are "ez" build for bad ppl like me lol?
I hope this will help me. I didnt think i was a bad player until I tried for an entire day to win 1 sanctum map. Always die on 3rd floor. Impossible to me lol.

Great video, Phaze. As always
short and to the point yet all the important info, excellent guide thank you.

without a doubt the best sanctum guide out there, not some streamer clipping a part of their stream saying nothing.
the only thing he could expand on is relics but its fine u learn as u go
Wow. This is the video that im looking for! You are so detailed sir i now understand everything in sanctum. Thank you. Save my day!
Great video man, thanks!
Loved the video. I never really tried Sanctum but after watching this I got excited to try it

Amazing guide and quality production
@6:25 there's actually 3 shortcuts in that room. Straight after you've completed the first shortcut and run past where the fireballs spawn you will see a corner (in this vid the corner is up top). You can flame dash etc over that

Sanctum, the perfect mele mechanic 😇😂 thx for this excelent guide, well done 😎
Finally someone explaining a bit about the strategy and not just flying through the sanctum and calling it a "How To"... Thanks
Amazing guide Phaze!
Solid guide! Thanks a lot!

I watch new Phaze video - I like it and leave comment. You're awesome creator
Would love to see a build guide or even pob, amazing video
Excellent Guide!
As a pretty confident sanctum runner I can say that this is very good guide if not considering my personal opinions on some room types and afflictions
Sanctum is fun. I’m still learning it. Just bricked an amazing run today by taking Ghastly Scythe + Spiked exit. 😂
Oooh, what a content!
Thank you sir.
Great video and so informative.
Will love if you could do a 3.25 update for your Skeleton Build or any other content on HC league starter
I beat my first sanctum, thanks to this!
Excellent guide.
Great video!
Nice guide!
Nice video!
what is the best build for sanctum?
Very well done ❤
good one thanks for sharing
TL;DR: Merchant choice relics are the expensive, but safe build for Sanctum. Great pick for low DPS or generalist builds.
I highly recommend the +2 merchant choice relics if you're the kind of person who wants to run Sanctum, but doesn't like or want to run a dedicated build for it. Take myself for example: I run poison SRS from league start to finish, because it's a very cost-efficient build and tanky enough for most content in the game. It doesn't perform very well in Sanctum due to the need for poison stacks to build up so I tend to clear them a lot more slowly by comparison. The merchant choice relics compensate for that massively by giving me tons of buffs.
Liked and Subscribed , what a gangster content XD
Ayyy he`s back
awesome video, but when you start running sanctum at league start you wont have any relics, how do you manage a run without those bonuses? or do you just try to buy relics early in league before you start running sanctum
neat and real
amazing vid, any idea for some good 1st day sanctum runner builds for 3.25?
Hi Phaze, really like this guide . I am thinking to build a hexblast minner and run Sanctum... will be a good idea? or what´s builds do you think it is good for this mechanic?

Will this be the league I finally finish a sanctum? Maybe now it will!

10/10 guide, I can abuse sanctum now
The best sanctum guide ive seen, ive been doing sanctum for the last 2 leagues and didnt know many of these tips
You got the best sanctum guide, when do we get the best sanctum character build guide for sanctum?
hexblast mines :P
I would Love to See a leaguestart buildguide for Clearing sanctum in hc
Yes please for rushing sanctum
Currently, Hexblast is the king of Sanctum. An early Dreadarc, or maybe Blasphemy should get Hexblast going early. No idea what the supply of Forbidden Tomes will look like in HC Trade though
@@PhazePlays_ hexblast survived the nerfs!?!? Yesssss
@@PhazePlays_ would you say penance brand of dissipation is still a good choice for sanctum or is hexblast mine better by a mile ?
@@pbc1337 PBoD is good sure, but Hexblast should be stronger overall
I had no idea those fire gauntlet shortcuts existed
nice vid
thx a lot
Thanks for sharing this, i want to start farm sanctum, but im awfull at dodging and i dont know which build to do atm, i've already an hirop. lv92 there are "ez" build for bad ppl like me lol?
very nice
I hope this will help me. I didnt think i was a bad player until I tried for an entire day to win 1 sanctum map. Always die on 3rd floor. Impossible to me lol.
What level should a forbidden tome be?
Is there any Build guide for Hexblast mines for sanctum only?
Does sanctum relic, whic increased damage taken by monsters, affect bosses? Or Guards?
