Bane of the Powerful > Esoteric.
There is literally no reason to use Esoteric, youre already immortal.
Sorry to say, but your post makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
BotP isn’t better than Esoteric, it has a totally different purpose.
What you probably meant to say is, that the S19 seasonal buff
is grotesquely overpowered, but that holds true for most every build.
my point is that a defensive gem on the Condemn build is pointless.
You are immortal without an Esoteric equipped, so use a DPS gem instead.
BOTP being the best option.
