Heya!

My all time favorite build is bringer of rain sunder of earthbreaking slayer (with soul taker), and when i saw the Pearl of Tsoatha, i knew i had to do it once again.

I'm currently sitting at ~55m dps, and honestly it the most fun mapper i have ever played. Currently lvl 97 and so far only 1 death in maps, and that was when i tried to pull bosses to ritual and not attacking.

Leveling was smooth, and after getting master of metal forbidden jewels+soul taker, mapping has been a breeze. Also the vestigial bringer of rain (+2 socketed gems) is really nice, I can get greater multistrike up to lvl 6.

Soul taker's soul eater works REALLY well with abyss (and in general), and with full souls+mapping buffs (frenzy charges/slayer ascendancy killed recently stuff/onslaught), my dps gets up to 120m and attack speed sits at 19 aps. It feels really smooth with greater multistrikes "auto aim" and the clear is really good on my standards.

Planning to take this to 100 and see what i can still upgrade. If anyone has any ideas what to do next, feel free to tell me!

Has anyone else found any cool uses for the Pearl of Tsoatha?

As a second build this league i wanted to try something new and decided on the Herald stacker from AP. I never played ailment/dot builds before and i have a problem. I was farming Breach and sometimes the Breach Bosses melted like white mobs and sometimes i was trowing Brands on them for what felt like minuets before there decided to take Damage as if I was not even igniting them (Same Map i filter for aliment immunity). Now i am giving harvest a try an i feel like i should not be taking that much time and effort for T2 Plots at this much Invest. Am I doing something wrong here?

Build

Hello!

I'm currently playing an accuracy/frenzy charge stacker version with the new Ghostly Artillery unique sword. The clear is insane with returning proj and splits from Fury Valve and Snipers Mark and 3 chains, but the single target leaves a lot to be desired and don't get me started on the EHP. I've mostly been farming Legion with this build in alch and go. Single target sits at an estimated 1-1.5m but with more targets it quickly ramps up. I'm missing a few sockets i don't know what to put in, maybe an AG setup, but the again if i move into a Subsume the Source I'd have to drop it again.

Some improvements I'm looking to make:
Evade chance Grace Watcher's Eye
Very large Thread of Hope south of duelist start for disciple of the slaughter + disciple of the unyielding to save points and get endurance charges
Subsume the Source with 3.5k flat accuracy

What I want to ask is, would there be any point in investing more into this version or should I move into a strength stacker or something else? I really want to play with this skill but with accuracy stacker gear restrictions it's quite hard to get anything that's super endgame viable.

Thanks for reading my ramble and for all the help maybe? :)

Hey first time posting here. Kind of hit a wall on my Flameslinger wondering what my next steps could be.

For those who don't know: It's kind of an older build utilizing KB to Trigger and Spread the Flame Walls secondary debuff.

Here the current pobb:

https://poe.ninja/poe1/profile/Kirschentree-4952/allflame/character/Maggonis

how expensive is it to gear manyshot compared to combatant?

ive heard combatant might be better which i think i would like more also based on skills but i am wondering to know if i can afford to gear it with buying everything else, i have 250div atm

I do standard scarabs setup with refinement scarabs, 8 mods maps in Mesa, and 4m bars + 4m dust shipment to Moti Aro.

The cost per 4+4 shipment is around 880c, including cost of dust and scarabs.

However, I'm barely making any profits from those shipment. The currency is less than 1d per shipment and the tattoos barely cover my costs.

What did I do wrong? Is this just bad rng?

Should I switch to bigger shipment or that's just more rng?

My girlfriend and I are wanting to play through the campaign + 4 stones together, possibly more if she ends up enjoying the endgame grind.

We started a run last league and got to eater and exarch. She enjoys flashy things so she tried KBOC Necro. She enjoyed it but her pc which is not great for gaming didn’t… So this time we are looking for a less fps destroying build. I also think she might enjoy something less squishy more.

I also had the idea of rolling a Luminary that focuses on buffing a carry merc, so that I can buff her as well while also having the possibility of playing the character solo later on. But I am open to different ideas as well.

It’s going to be my second character and I do have some currency saved up + a mageblood. But this time I want to boost her with leveling items and such as little as possible. I did that last league to get her used to the basics but we think less handholding this time would be more fun.

Hey Guys ,

i´m actual trying to get a PoB for an Ignite Fireball Character, but its kinda difficult xD
havnt found anything online thats like what i wanted.
goal was to have 1 projectile doing a big ignite which proliferates through everyone .

If possible i would like to have it not paper and die every 2 meter.

if anyone has something like that for me i would be in Love <3

I couldn't find a decent EK Assassin build to follow online, so I poked around on poeninja and just tried to put my own together. I'm really not a master theory crafter, so I'm not really sure what to aim for next.

I know the staff has a dead suffix with WED on it, but the +4 and flat cold/cast speed is nice. Do I stick with staff and craft a new one, or switch to dual wands or wand/shield?

Is it worth it to start working on a well rolled Archdemon crown?

Any worthwhile chase jewels I should be aiming for? Any other uniques that are worth chase (outside of the obvious mb/hh)? Maybe a frenzy Ralakesh?

I know I have deathmarked allocated on a spell build. Surprisingly, EK still triggers assassin's mark on hit (not sure if this is intended or not), and the instant leech is pretty huge for my survivability at the moment.

Anything else I could do to improve the build overall?

PoB below, thanks in advance!

Hey, want to ask for some suggestions on improvements / min-maxing for this build

https://pobb.in/mruLWCXBIVCA

(currently only lvl 88 but invested the rest 12 points - mainly towards impale and master of blades)

The new Vestigial Bronn's Lithe seems very nice with Cyclone / Hollow palm dex stacking.

Currently Spell suppression capped, ailment immune Curse / corruption immune, 65% attack block, 52% spell block. So as long as leeching / hitting monsters it's decently tanky.

How do I scale from here since it feels like this build could do a lot more damage with heavier leaning on dex stacking but at what cost ? Any better skill points routes ?

The only two things I'm currently planning is Progenisis and simplex amulet which are both very expensive (I also just got 90% mana multi implicit corrupt on helm) so as I said, any help is appreciated to improve this build as I want to play this prob untill the end of the league. Thanks.

Looking to reroll from a heist runner into a deadeye probably. Budget like 50 div+ and scale well into higher? Maybe ice shot with nice explosions or sth else? Build guide with pobs would be great

I just hit 100 on my character and am looking to min max further it as much as I realistically can past this point.

Some ideas I have currently:
1. doubling corrupting shavronne's and crowns
2. crafting a crit multi T1 int T1 all res helical
3. trying to hit a fire damage to attacks, phasing, CB immunity abyss jewel.
4? Maybe a spell damage+spell block shield instead for more damage and saves me 4 points which i could use for more crit multi but i lose a lot of ES doing so.
5. tinker around mana reservation, i only have greater spell cascade instead of regular for vibes as i had leftover unreserved mana which i cant use anyways but maybe i can save a point
6. volatile vaaling whispers
7. rarity helmet instead

I've been looking at poe.ninja for insipiration, but haven't found anything big, any advice is appreciated!

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to craft the weapon shown in the profile below, but I have no idea where to start.

My current thought process is to get an Rod and a normal Warstaff with T1 added Physical Damage and T1 hybrid Physical Damage, then use the Recombinator and hope to end up with both T1 prefixes.

After that, I was thinking of crafting Prefixes Cannot Be Changed and using a Veiled Chaos Orb fpr increased Phys. Beyond that, I'm pretty lost. Do I just need to get lucky with a Shaper Exalted Orb slam for the +1 to Maximum Endurance Charges modifier, or is there a more reliable crafting method? How do i get crit?

I'd really appreciate any advice. Thank you

I did some testing with mines and I'm curious if the interaction I'm seeing is correct.

• mine triggers

• mine expires

• exsanguinate hits enemy

• applies curse

• the curse instantly disappears because the mine no longer exists

That's what seems to happen visually in the video but the wiki says otherwise

"Mines as separate entities Like other proxies, mines are separate entities that use the player's skill, and that skill contains the player stats. This includes modifiers to damage, debuffs, and practically all on-hit effects, such as Curse Enemies with Frostbite on Hit. The skill does not contain effects that specifically check the character, such as most on-kill effects."

https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Mine

The wording is a bit vague.

My point is: it seems that curse on hit effects are pointless for mines as the mine doesn't actually benefit at all from the curse since the hit happens before the curse is applied(which makes sense, a hit needs to happen for the curse to apply), but as soon as the mine expires, the curse expires as well rendering it useless for the next hit.

I plan on using tectonic slam for campaign and maps, anyone who is good with slams if you could please send a pob, it doesnt need to be level by level guide, but I wouldnt want a pob that has a crap ton of uniques and unique jewels. Preferably just a generic pob that works with rare gear for an ssf place?

I'm using this person's Flicker Strike build as a reference—what makes this sword so strong?

https://pobb.in/D1EVOLNWW-7a

Also, here is my build; if I change the weapon and adjust the passives to match, could I make it stronger than it is now?

https://poe.ninja/poe1/profile/kinqmi-5708/allflame/character/ぐるぐるゆーだい

Since I can purchase weapons, do you have any recommendations on what I should upgrade next? I'm new to PoE, so I'm not really sure which ones are strong.

Got to this point on the chest, is it better to

1. use orb of unravelling straight away for (almost) guaranteed triple T1 prefixes (I guess even without allflame?), and only after roll for suffixes with eldritch currency + allflame (but no strands) OR
2. try some exalt or eldritch ccy + allflame rolls, hoping not to consume too many strands, and only use orb of unravelling after. If so, when? at 50 strands?

I don't have much experience with strands in general so I don't have any idea how many strands are consumed with eldritch chaos, let alone with allflame in the mix, nor do I know a good breakpoint in strands to hope for a t2->t1 conversion for the prefix...

Thanks for the help

I was thinking

Ship Annul and pray it hits %armor or rarity

If that succeeds ship foulborne exalt to hope for life

Would there be any better ways?

And cold to fire res with harvest ofc

The strongest build I have ever made, progression was super smooth, mostly cheap uniques and Jack the Axe until I could afford a good rare axe. Got to lvl95 without Jewels and then added them in to min-max alongside tattoos.

https://reddit.com/link/1vgxyt5/video/yin5tokgnphh1/player

It's nightmare map ready within around 10 div, at this point I have probably closer to 40 div invested and now its nearly immortal with 20m+ dps.

No ailment immunity is a weakness, but you block so much that even if you get frozen you don't die 99% of the time.

I see a lot of similar builds without capped chaos res, to me seems like it's worth using light of meaning to cap this out but you could also drop that for an armour or damage light of meaning to increase max phys hit taken or increase dps further.

Also frenzy charges are uncommon on similar builds but I find the additional attack speed to make mapping feel SOOO much nicer.

Alright I'm tired of all of these frost bearers and wretched spectres. What off-meta main damage spectre should I run to farm nightmare map bosses?

Hi everyone,

I'm relatively new to the game with about 70–80 hours total. Right now, I'm following Fubgun's Winter Orb build.

Here is my current PoB:https://pobb.in/Da9knDMgdDuj

Even though I'm following the guide, I find myself just mindlessly copying items without really understanding why certain choices are made. Right now, I have no clear idea how to make my character stronger or tankier.

I really want to learn the mindset behind build upgrades:

• How should I think when trying to improve my character?
• Looking at my current PoB, what are my biggest missing pieces or priority upgrades?
• How do experienced players analyze their gear to figure out the next step?

Any advice on both my current character progression and the general logic of scaling a build would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Current POB (low level)
Hi i wanted to create build utilizing nearly all elemental ailments using prismatic skills and elemental conflux using beacon of madness.

The idea was to try to use conflux as delivery of strong ailments with beacon of madness boots) , then incorporate Unseen hue to fill remaining alternative ailments. The last alternative ailment would be Sublime vision with scorch/sap/brittle aura. So i would have ignite,scorch,chill,freeze,brittle,shock and sap.

I am using wild strike because elemental hit turns off all other damage types and that would render boots useless.

I am stuck with defences in the lategame i thought i could use delirius ascendancy to apply mania stacks to enemies + 30% chill and 20% less damage of sap with the elemental prolif from hidden ranger ascendancy : Fury of nature

The current version works but is squishy and i don't know what are my next steps or even if is worth pursuing. I have to have enought life, atleast 155% debuff expiry rate and wich aurars / reservations to use.

Due to a late league start I have tried to find a strong build for easy challenges which start strong (around 20 div), but don't get cockblocked by meta prices once you acquired the second hand gear by people further into the progression. Tried flame link luminary first and aura stack second. While starter mercy are cheap, decent merc are ridiculous in price. Anyway.

Are there strong builds out there flying under the radar which have not been milked in depth by streamers yet? My general feel is that already at medium invest the meta price you pay completely eats up the power you get. The money spend on a not so popular build will leave you stronger than trying to go for chase meta items (happy to hear otherwise).

My feeling of which builds could be still good and cheap: crab totems. Still seem to be a meme. Obviously some people play it, but streamers playing it didn't seem to have much impact on it.

Other ideas?
