    Path of Exile Builds GC miner - i'm stuck with low damage and low es


    GC miner - i'm stuck with low damage and low es

    Posted: 21 Jan 2019 01:23 AM PST

    I've been having issues with my GC miner lately, he's lvl 91, all labs done,https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Payday1337

    Aura gems are 21, I am aware that other gems are 19/20 BUT, I feel like i'm completely potato with the boss killing and a bit of trashing in t16s.I litterally deal no damage, it's sick. Takes me around 2 mins or more to kill a simple guardian. I am lost with the gems I've got to use because most of the builds are somehow not up to date.About the gear, I'm lost too, is there something wrong with it? Why is my ES at 8k?

    Edit: I'm at 21k in maps with inc crit and inc crit damage + hypothermia
    if i remove my shield for more damage i'll end up at 6.9k es

    Thanks

    Viability of Cyclone builds in 3.5 Shaper/Uber Atziri?

    Posted: 21 Jan 2019 03:33 AM PST

    Currently looking to get into Cyclone again. I just wonder what variant(s) would be the way to go for stuff like T15+ shaper/Uber atziri kind of stuff ? There just seems to be 3 different variations and I have pretty hard time choosing, and not quite sure which guide to follow.

    There's chieftain naghamu, Scion Slayer/Raider and then plain Slayer. Most likely some different ones if one were to go CoC path, but I'm not sure if I'd wanna do that as I have only about 7-8 exalt to burn. Mainly looking into non CoC versions.

    Any help would be appreciated :)

    Is a MF build best for making currency for someone who enjoys mapping?

    Posted: 20 Jan 2019 09:14 AM PST

    Not super into delve or doing syndicate. Mostly like mapping and bossing. What do you guys think? Also what would you recommend? Was thinking of some type of fast mapper that has a lot of MF

    Arc Hierophant Help Needed

    Posted: 20 Jan 2019 08:27 PM PST

    PoB: https://pastebin.com/raw/enGBECU3

    Having a bit of trouble with survivability. I'm sitting at around 613 ES according to PoB but 571 in game, and it seems like every time I get hit, no matter how hard or by whatever level creature, my ES deflates to 0. Is this because my ES is so low currently? Or is there something that's causing it to go to zero on hit?

    I'm currently running depth 95-100 in delve, and T11 maps fairly comfortably, but I know I need to have more survivability if I want to push for T15+ and go for elder. Looking for tips to make that realistic. I have times in delve where everything seems to blow up and I die instantly.

    The build I'm basing myself off of is https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2115624/page/1

    I wanna try the new coc before league ends, but I don't wanna do story again. I've got an ele and a pf leveled that I don't mind respeccing into whatever, but coc was before my time so I don't have many build ideas. no real goals for char but I'd like to do delve 600 for endgame grinds.

    I like the defenses an HoAG gladiator can provide. I made this and am curious if this has enough sustain and AI intelligence for an uber kill:

    Questions regarding Deadeye builds and "what it can do"

    Posted: 20 Jan 2019 03:59 PM PST

    Intro

    I know this is a wall of text so I really thankful for your time!
     
    This is sort of my first character I am trying to take to the end game and completing all the content with and additionally it is also my first Ranger. Therefore I have a bunch of questions and things I need clarified - which is why the post is pretty long but I will try to break it up as best as I can. I am hoping I can stick to one character but if any of my plans/ideas would be unreasonably difficult doing that I might consider making another character.
    The build/style I am looking at is stacking Dexterity for cold damage using the Shaper bow-mod and Hyrri's Demise and I have already collected some of the gear for this. If it is possible I plan on acquiring a second set of gear to MF with without having to respec the tree (or at least with as few respecs as possible).
    If possible I would also greatly appreciate the reasoning behind your answers - that way I don't have to post again with another build/in another league :)

     

    Current situation and goals

    I have been playing as a lightning based Scourge Arrow Deadeye so far and it has been able to take me all the way to this point without any big investments. This is my character and the gear I own at the time of writing this: https://pastebin.com/qBUvgD7B
    I have loosely followed this guide so far: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2244012
    I am however aiming to do Shaper and Uber Elder for the Zana questline, but since I have already failed the Syndicate Mastermind encounter (I died 4 times and got a carry to complete it) and Minotaur without any really bad mods (same story) I figured I needed some improvements.
    I realize that I could cheese these two fights by getting a low level mastermind to spawn (I presume it works that way) and doing alt, regal and vaal on the Minotaur map but I would rather upgrade my character so that I am able to handle that content and more.
     

    I also have a goal of delving to (at least) depth 300 doing the bosses and I would really prefer being able to do all these things on a single char. Being able to do Minotaur however is lowest on the list of priorities since I already have the map completed and I believe it heavily relies on physical mitigation.
    I hope to be able to run shaped t15 and t16s on the char and I dont mind swapping gear between maps/activies. I realize doing this with MF gear requires a hefty investment in gear, so MF'ing could be done in lower tier maps until then. I am using this guide as a reference here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HvC5EceFyU

    I am not sure about the power level of the respective builds - Current vs. Dexterity stacking cold damage vs. Windripper MF - and how they each would handle the different scenarios and how much overlap there is in gearing and skill tree.
    I have linked a PoB with "everything" I own and the budget for immediate upgrades is at the moment around 8-10 ex, so the question is if a respec could be done with that or if I should save up more currency first. I have no hopes of being able to gear the character within this budget but I do not currently have more to spend.
    I have not been able to find a guide for the Dexterity build that explained things enough for me to get a good grasp on, but I have again loosely used this as a reference: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2108376

     

    So now the ton of questions and things I would appreciate some feedback on:
     
    Build and what is possible
    Activities

    • How many of these can be achieved by a single build? How many changes would have to be made in order to do the different activities (gear, tree, gems etc.)?
      • Killing Shaper (just once for the questline).
      • Killing Uber Elder and his guardians (again once for the quest but being able to do it multiple times would be cool. This is however not a priority since I am probably shaping my atlas).
      • Delving to 300+ (delving sideways when I hit "the limit").
      • Doing the Delve bosses (and if this is limited to certain depth levels).
      • Farming tier 15 and 16 (with regular and MF-gear).
      • Farming maps below tier 15 with MF gear.
      • Doing the Syndicate encounters (when do they become too difficult to do regarding zone level, mods and type of encounter?).

    Trees

    • What/which skill trees should I aim for/use?
      • For my current character if switching to another build is not viable currently
      • When I make the swap to the cold damage build
      • If I need to respec in order to run with the MF gear
    • Should I try to hit a specific level the build greatly benefits from?

    Gear

    • Should I have replaced any current gear pieces at this point?
    • Have I bought the correct items to use when swapping build?
    • If mandatory upgrades are outside my current budget which cheap upgrades can I make to the current character to improve it?
    • Which upgrades should I prioritize and why?
      • Current vs. MF vs. Dexterity
      • Gear specific to a single activity vs. gear being used across multiple?
      • Should I be livesearching for anything specific due to it being rare or something else?
    • What are the pro's and con's of running 0, 1 or 2 Inspired Learnings? Perhaps it suits some of the activities better than others?
    • Should I be using Lioneye's with the claw nodes instead of the leech nodes below Vaal Pact I am currently using? Again "why"?
    • Should I Divine some of the gear or if it would be cheaper to buy direct upgrades instead? When should this be done and how do I evaluate it in the first place?
      • Is this purely a matter of currency?
    • How important are enchants and how much should they be prioritized?

    Gems

    • Making this post I realized I have not been Vaal'ing my gems at all (bought the Vaal Haste). How should I prioritize the following:
      • Vaal my active gems?
      • Vaal 20/20 gems from the offhand?
      • Buy 20/20 and Vaal them?
      • Buy 21/20, 20/23, 21/23, Vaal skill 21/20 or Vaal skill 20/23?
    • Are there any other skill gems I should be using that I am not?
    • Should I be using other support gems than what I am using currently?
      • I have just been slotting the gems that PoB have listed as the biggest dps upgrades with the exception of Mirage Archer (convenience) and Faster Attacks (to reach max stage quicker). Is this the correct approach?
    • Which gems should I prioritize when swapping build?
    • If I am looking at swapping gems between activities which ones are then most important?

     

    Atlas and currency strategy
     

    • Without Shaper I am currently sitting on 153 % atlas completion.
      • Is it a reasonable strategy to unshape guardians, the t15s other than Tower and the t11s except Burial Chambers (dropping to 136 %)?
      • I would be selling the Towers and BCs and buy the shaped t15s I would like to run in order to buy/drop additional t16s.
      • When Uber Elder is down that would leave me with 4 sextants and I would roll my maps properly, use Elder and Shaper influence and run the Zana Breach/Harbinger (or Domination if it is superiour) am I then looking at a sustainable strategy?
      • Additionally I could use Sacrifice fragments, Prophecies and Scarabs to increase returns. I realize this "depends" and cannot really be answered so the question I am really asking is if I am missing something important here?
    • Is it "profitable" to run t15s and t16s this way at this point in the league? Me reasoning tells me it is not due to the following, but I must be missing something because I see a bunch of people chaining t16s and greatly profiting while doing it.
      • Maps and crafting bases have dropped significantly in price while the cost of utilizing the above in order to boost returns have remained the same or gone up.
      • There is no benefit to running Safehouses or Temple in high level zones?
      • Nico and Einhar do benefit from higher zone levels but it feels like that would be a small portion of income?
      • Divination cards are not affected by zone level right?
    • Where does the profit come from compared to running MF with cheaper investment in maps relying mostly on Divination cards and currency drops?
    • Expanding on the point regarding Nico I plan on supplying my income by delving (not fossil running but just hitting nodes and blowing up walls on the trip). I plan on getting the Sulphite Scarabs to fuel this and I hope someone can point out if this is a net-loss.
    • Is the additional atlas completion bonus worth buying the unique maps for? I am thinking of Doryani's, Perandus, Putrid Cloister and possibly getting a carry in HoGM.

    Other  

    • Can the character do HoGM, Uber Atziri, Vaal Temple, The Pale Council and the (regular) Breachstone bosses without help from others?
    • Can someone comment on the Imperial bow with 3 mods in the PoB and say if I could use it or if I should keep rolling on it?

    Mjölner Gladiator - Single Target DPS improvements?

    Posted: 20 Jan 2019 01:11 PM PST

    https://pastebin.com/tNxPSF2h

    I was sick of getting panned by the syndicate so my goal was to create an immortal character. And my personal go-to is always block. But I didn't feel like that was enough this time so I just kept on stacking defenses.

    The problem: My single target is somewhat lacking and I have to facetank enemies a long time. Sometimes timed syndicate members escape because I can't kill them in time.

    Current defenses:

    • 5.7k life
    • Aspect of the Spider
    • 78% Attack Block (in general gameplay)
    • 78% Spell Block (in general gameplay)
    • Fortify
    • Life gain on Hit on Cyclone
    • CwDT Immortal Call
    • 6 Endurance Charges (used for Discharge and Immortal Call)
    • The Surrender - 250 life on block (can be replaced with a way better rare, but I am still looking for a good one)
    • 0% Chaos Res
    • 80% Max Res
    • 11% of Phys taken as Fire
    • Tempest Shield+CoH Enfeeble+Blind
    • "Blood in the Eyes" Blind
    • Stun Immune in Cyclone+Painforged
    • Triple balanced Wise Oak
    • Soul of Arakaali (against DoTs and shock)
    • Soul of Ralakesh (against phys DoTs, Blind and Maimed)
    • Maim

    Overall, extremely tanky. Only heavy DoTs pose a problem. Sometimes I even start to recharge energy shield in the middle of fights because enemies acc is so low. Very comfortable.

    Current offenses:

    • Aspect of the Spider (Fenumus' Weave)
    • Inya's Epiphany (25% chance to get max power charges)
    • Romira's Banquet (gain power charges on non-crit)
    • Voll's Devotion (gain end charges when power charges are lost)
    • Mjölner with Discharge+Arc+Controlled Destruction (because I want shock)
    • 5.2 top attack speed (equals 10.4 attacks per second with Cyclone)
    • 5 power charges
    • 6 end charges
    • Elemental Equilibrium (cold damage on Cyclone and CwDT BV)
    • Elemental Overload
    • Triple balanced Wise Oak

    Turns out I am pretty free on gem slots, I can easily make room for 4 different ones (replacing Portal, War Banner, Blind on Tempest Shield, Leap Slam).

    Clearspeed is absolutely fine in all map tiers. But rares slow me down. I am just spinning on guardians forever and syndicate members take a bit too long.

    Tried going crit with Gifts from Above and Power Charge on Crit on Cyclone instead of EO. Didn't work. At all.

    Only Arc instead of Arc+Discharge? Don't know if the single target would improve.

    Elemental Weakness instead of Enfeeble in CoH? BIG trade off but maybe I should just go for it?

    Repentance (~90% spell damage) instead of Fenumus' (60% damage, 9% attack speed, 15% enemy damage taken which is like a more multiplier) with three stacks? I think Fenumu's is just better.

    Different Aura instead of Purity of Elements? Would hurt a lot defensively because of the Watcher's Eye.

    I already think damage wise it is pretty up there for a block build (without going mirror gear or HoA crawler, where the playstyle looks ... shit). Does anyone have an idea how I could squeeze out more single target on this build without compromising (too much of) the defenses? Gem levels/quality aside. Maybe I missed some crazy ideas.

    Thanks for looking!

    Lightning Scion Request

    Posted: 20 Jan 2019 12:54 PM PST

    Hey All, I'm brand new to this game (played a couple hours in the past few years) and I'm really getting into it and excited to get in to the endgame. I've looked at a lot of the skills and effects and decided I like the idea of using the herald of lightning and lightning strike in a build with a two-hander. At the moment I have a level 30ish scion and 30ish marauder. I'd like to use my scion who is currently specced for using a two-hander (was following a flicker/molten strike build guide). Could anyone point me in the right direction or help me come up with a build for this? If these skills don't work together for late game stuff (I'd like to be able to do all content) then maybe someone could help me figure something else out. Any help is highly appreciated!

    Tl;dr: I'd like to build a 2h melee lightning "explosion" sort of scion. Don't know anything about building in this game and am having trouble finding a guide. Help me! D:

    Cheap Hardcore Builds

    Posted: 20 Jan 2019 11:38 AM PST

    I've been trying to get through Hardcore without much success. I was recommended to try a Whispering Ice build, but after trying 5 times I've not made it past Act 8 (last one died to Doedre, still unsure how, previously died to a Syndicate intervention in the Quay, and a few other random deaths earlier that were my fault). I'm a little frustrated with it, I like it but it's not particularly mobile. Looking for any other recommendations, so far have collected 1 lucky exalt and a small handful of other currency (< 10 c), so don't have a lot to invest. I prefer not to buy a Tabula because I'm enjoying the challenge.

    I've already done Storm Brand Ele and Arc Mine Sabo and Armageddon Brand Trickster in Softcore, trying to change it up. I like occultist, but would be fine playing anything else that's fun and cheap to start

    DoT bow builds

    I have been wanting to play some sort of DoT now build for a bit now. Anyone have any personal favorites?

    I saw that bleed gladiator posted and was considering that but not sure if there might be something a bit better. Maybe some sort of scourge arrow ignite? Vaal burning arrow something? Is poison much of a thing now without quill rain being viable?
