Hello exiles,

I'm pretty new to PoE and have just started this season and while I have tried to get a good grip on things, some things are still a mystery to me. After getting advice on reddit I first stuck to guides and focused on one talent area (minions). I roughly followed a Baron Guide (after starting out with Slow Mo Zombies which brought me til yellow maps but I felt a little squishy) but since I dislike animate guardian and summoning spectres I skipped those parts in the Baron guide.My character feels pretty ok, I've progressed to red maps and shaper guardians but if I'm playing red maps with 8 mods I usually have to stay back and let my minions do the work or I get one(two)shotted. Some bosses are a problem but I am also notoriously bad at learning mechanics. I had huge trouble killing elder in phase 3 and only managed with help of another player carrying me because I just took to much damage. Phase 1 and 2 were no problem though. I haven't dared shaper yet after that experience.

Here's my build: https://pastebin.com/Et5x6km5 (PoB) - http://poe-profile.info/profile/syntheticants?realm=pc (poe profile, don't know how useful that is?)

What kind of auras/curses is useful?

Because of EE I run generosity+hatred. I've read some guides recommending temporal chains, and I like the effect a lot, but have no clue about damage with this nor how to get a clue about damage with this. Currently I'm running blasphemy+warlords mark because of the phys damage of the minions. Is there a better aura to use for phys damage or survivability? I used to run enfeeble but PoB showed me less minion damage with enfeeble so I switched it. Currently I use gloves with "cast level 10 vulnerability on hit" - does that mean on any hit from me or would I have to slot an attack skill there to trigger the effect?

does taking elemental equilibrium in case that I have to stay back make sense for me?

As I gathered from r/pathofexile my minions don't trigger EE so the +25% resist shouldn't apply if I don't hit anything, right?Right now I am using consecrated path as attack to trigger EE, I consideres switching to cyclone as to not add flame damage, but don't know if that would make anything better.

Cwdt

I am unsure if having two cwdt setups is useful or a waste of slots. Currently running level 8 cwdt+desecrate+flesh offering+phase run (for get-aways) and level 17 cwdt+immortal call. Since I have barely any armor (1412) or evasion (1031) I am unsure if I should run this or steelskin and unsure if the number of damage taken is too high (2621 damage at 4918 life and 2554 energy shield).

Thanks a lot for taking time to read this!

Best ascendancy for ignites?

Posted: 05 Aug 2019 12:23 PM PDT

I'm looking to do some kind of ignite based armageddon brand build but I can't really decide which ascendancy would be best to pick. It's between Trickter, Elementalist or Chieftain. I know Elementalist was hit pretty hard but it still seems like a lot of damage through shock. Chiftain seems like a more defensive option while Trickster is somewhere in between. What do you guys reckon?

Help getting more movement speed for Cyclone

Posted: 05 Aug 2019 07:12 AM PDT

Looking to top off my Cyclone CWC SRS Minion Instability build with some additional defense via Movement Speed. I have a slightly hard time vs. Shaper Guardians (Shaper is actually easier due to its mechanics) for the following reasons:

My Cycloning movement speed is a bit slow to manually dodge attacks when my Quicksilver has run out
I can't escape for a long enough period of time to get the Timeless Jewel to kickstart my life regen (using Zerphi Timeless jewel)

Aside from gitting gud, which would help, how can I get more movement speed? It's a common issue I run into when playing Cyclone builds for some reason, I always stall out around 125% with Quicksilver enabled, but when the flask runs out I feel painfully slow. I realize I could instead get more defenses through a 2nd curse (enfeeble or temp chains), but I'd personally like to learn how to build more movement speed into my cyclone builds.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

build for passive playstyle (not afk)

Posted: 05 Aug 2019 06:28 AM PDT

im searching for some passive chill playstyle build, where i can just run through monsters and kill them, without actively using skills (only to triger stuff)

similar to demi rf chieftain https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_m4UDCH8IE4

im thinking some rf build with all the focus on rf, no scorching ray , only orb of storm to trigger or similar

im not sure how active playstyle ED is, i also played arc totem and gc builds, so those i rather avoid now , since i wana play something new

something to fit into 2 ex ..and capable of making yellow maps, and capable of doing t16 with bit more investment or being more active .

thank you for any hints

What should I improve? Cycloneing late game

Posted: 05 Aug 2019 04:26 AM PDT

I'm finding my damage could be better, I think my crafting attempted weapon and Kaoms is what I am lacking. I'm also not sure if I just suck or my 5K hp + 1.2K es is not enough but I find I'm dying sometimes on guardians. My AOE is really good. What do you think? Build

Additionally with a budget of 120 ex should I just switch to a TS slayer?
