Crafting a Boom Mace for Shockwave Strength Stack Slayer

Step 1

Getting Your Base

Before

Crusader

After

Shaper1

Buy an Item Level 77+ Boom Mace off of trade.
Use the cheapest Conqueror Exalt to apply an influence (example: Crusader's Exalted Orb).
Use your Horticrafting Bench to change the Influence for 1000 Primal Crystallised Lifeforce. Do this until your Mace is Shaper or Elder Influence (either works).

Step 2

Setting up the Awakener Orb

Shaper Mod:

Shaper

Elder Mod:

Elder

If your Boom Mace is Shaper Influence:

Use Orbs of Alteration until Socketed Gems are Supported by Level 20 Increased Critical Strikes, (26-29)% increased Critical Strike Chance (Tier 1). This is a 1/111 chance. Use a Regal Orb to make it Rare but make sure it only has 1 Influenced mod still.
Buy any Elder Weapon with 3% increased Area of Effect per 50 Strength. Make sure it's the only Influenced modifier on it.

If your Boom Mace is Elder Influence:

Use Orbs of Alteration until 3% increased Area of Effect per 50 Strength. This is a 1/115 chance. Use a Regal Orb to make it Rare but make sure it only has 1 Influenced mod still.
Buy any Shaper weapon with Socketed Gems are Supported by Level 20 Increased Critical Strikes, (26-29)% increased Critical Strike Chance (Tier 1). Make sure it's the only Influenced modifier on it.

Step 3

Creating your Double-Influence Base

Elder/Shaper

Use an Awakener's Orb on the donator base (not the Boom Mace), then on the Boom Mace.

You should now have an Elder/Shaper Boom Mace like the one on the left.

Step 4

Adding Attack Speed

Before

4.1

After

4.2

Now that you have created a double-influence Boom Mace, the next step is to add 17% or higher to local increased Attack Speed.

If your Mace already has a third Suffix from the Awakener's Orb reforge, you need to gamble the 1/3 chance with an Orb of Annulment.
The same rule applies if you have full Prefixes since you will need to Benchcraft a Prefix multiple times in this craft.
If you remove either of the Influenced mods at any point you must restart from Step 1 of the craft.
With at least 1 open Prefix and 1 open Suffix, craft Suffixes Cannot be Changed and use a Harvest Reforge Speed for 150 Vivid Crystallised Lifeforce.
If you add 17% or higher (50% chance), move to the next step (the Elder Attack Speed mod works as well even if we aren't making use of the "Socketed Gems" part).
If you fail to hit 17% or higher with the Speed Reforge, try to remove it with an Orb of Annulment. If you fail, you must start from Step 1.

Tip: Optionally, you can use Shrieking Essences of Loathing on your Mace until 3% increased Area of Effect per 50 Strength then start from Step 4 to save time. Keep in mind this is twice as expensive though (1/60 chance).

Step 5

Wild Bristle Matron

Before

5.1

After

5.2

Use a Wild Bristle Matron to craft Suffixes Cannot be Changed on your Mace, then use a Veiled Orb to add a Veiled Prefix.

5 / 7

Step 6

Finishing the Prefixes

Before

6.1

After

6.2

Benchcraft (55-66)% increased Spell Damage then unveil Attacks with this Weapon Penetrate (14-16)% Chaos Resistance from Jun.

The last Prefix is unimportant so feel free to use an Exalted Orb for the last modifier of the Mace (block a flat elemental prefix).

6 / 7

Step 7

Finishing Up

Shockwave Str-Stack

Go to your Horticrafting station and Enchant your Boom Mace with Quality does not increase Physical Damage 1% increased Critical Strike Chance per 4% Quality for 5000 Primal Crystallised Lifeforce to finish. Your weapon is now complete!
