    Posted: 12 Dec 2019 12:40 AM PST

    Hey
    i'm started to plan a build with Zombies and Skeletons for bosses.
    https://pastebin.com/km170U0M

    This PoB for a starting the league, it seems good for me, but would be nice an endgame variant based on this.

    Any suggestions are welcome!

    [3.9] The Warchief | [Facebreaker] Ancestral Warchief | 2m dps+ | Uber Farmer

    Posted: 11 Dec 2019 09:05 PM PST

    I finally updated my well known Ancestral Warchief build to 3.9 with nearly 4m views its one of the most ever viewed builds in the marauder build section and provides a beginner friendly gearing wich can ez melt all engame bosses and is a perfect uber labyrinth farmer

    i put ALOT of effort into this guide to make it as detailed and understandable as possible and keep it updated since early 2016

    https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1694250

    The only thing you should keep in mind is that it should be a good option to change normal supports with the awakened one if you get one, but this should be obvious i guess?

    if you have any question feel free to ask here or in the guide itself

    ps: the blight oil selection if found in the FAQ

    [3.9] Leaguestarter: Blade Vortex Trickster

    Posted: 11 Dec 2019 05:50 AM PST

    Introduction

    With the upcoming 3.9 Metamorphosis league focused on boss killing, I thought about reviving one of my favorite leaguestarters: Blade Vortex. In this iteration, I will be using Cyclone CwC Blade Vortex.

    Blade Vortex is a great boss killing skill that scales well with investment. By using it together with Cyclone, we can eliminate its biggest drawbacks, which are the need for skill duration and having to stand still to cast the spell.


    Pros & Cons

    Pros:

    • Free Frenzy and Power Charge Generation. You have 4 of each by default and can easily grab 3 additional Power charges on the tree.

    • Mobile: You completely eliminate the need for skill duration and cast speed from the equation. BV traditionally needs some duration to feel good, but with this you can hold down right click and clear a map, with the occasional leap slam in between.

    • You don't need Uber lab for a completely functional build. For a league start I'd grab Swift Killer, Weave the Arcane and Harness the Void in that order, and after Uber lab when you have Elreon mods you can swap Weave the Arcane for Ghost Shroud and Escape Artist.

    • With the ascendancies above, you can reserve 100% of your mana as Cyclone and Leap Slam will be free. With something like Hatred, Herald of Ash and either Herald of Ice or Flesh and Stone, you will have both good clear and good bossing damage.

    • Cheap to gear. With 2x Princess (about an alch each) and a corrupted 6L chest or Tabula, you can get to red maps. It's also an Alira build so resistances will be easier to come by.

    • Scales well with investment. We can abuse multi stage conversion as Trickster for extremely high damage, transition to CI later on for 30-50k Evasion with 8-12k ES or go LL for even more damage. Or go Eternity Shroud and oneshot everything.

    Cons:

    • Squishy without additional investment: At the end of the day, you're a caster in melee range.

    • Cannot do reflect maps. With the right gearing and support gems, we can dodge one of the two, but not both.


    Leveling

    1. Gem Setup

    This is my recommended setup for a smooth leveling experience. While you can use BV as soon as you get it, it won't feel good to use until much later.

    • Level 2: Explosive Trap+Lesser Poison Support

    • Level 4: Frost Bomb+Onslaught

    • Level 10: Leap Slam or Flame Dash

    • Level 12: Grab Blade Vortex and level it for later use. Continue using Explosive Trap or use Storm Burst.

    • Level 16: Swap to Wave of Conviction and use Heralds of choice. Our endgame Herald of choice is Herald of Ash.

    • Level 28: Grab Cyclone and level it for later use.

    • Level 38: You can start using Cyclone CwC BV all the way to maps now. Keep an eye out for Vaal Blade Vortex.

    2. Ascendancy Order

    League start:

    1. Swift Killer

    2. Weave the Arcane

    3. Harness the Void

    Post Uber Lab:

    1. Swift Killer

    2. Ghost Dance

    3. Escape Artist

    4. Harness the Void

    3. Recommended leveling uniques

    • Head: Goldrim

    • Amulet: Atziri's Foible

    • Weapons: 2x The Princess

    • Chest: Skin of the Loyal or Tabula Rasa

    • Rings: 2x Le Heup of All

    • Belt: Belt of the Deceiver

    • Gloves: Hrimsorrow

    • Boots: Wanderlust or Seven League Step


    PoB


    Endgame Gearing

    With 3.9, Shaper/Elder items will be presumably rarer and we are getting new influenced items. In addition, multimodding is getting gutted, so one of the more deterministic ways of acquiring good gear is gone. As such, any recommendation I make is going to be obsolete pretty soon as we don't know what those are. Here are some recommendations based on 3.8

    • Weapons:

      • Rare: A shaped sceptre with Phys as extra Lightning, Lightning as extra Chaos, Spelldmg and Spellcrit is the go to weapon. For the off-hand, either another one with "Tri"ger a socketed spell when you use a skill" fo" easy application of curses, golems etc, or a shield for a more defensive option.
      • Unique: The Princess offers a lot of damage and is very affordable, which will last you a long time. For the offhand, Light of Lunaris adds a lot of damage and crit. If you are rich, Atziri's R'flection. If you wear mostly Elder/Shaper gear, Disintegrator is an incredibly compelling choice if you can counteract the degen. A combination of ES Leech
    • Helmet:

      • Rare: Look for Life/ES and resistances here. The ideal base is an ES base due to our Ascendancy.
      • Unique: If Life based, The Devouring Diadem. If ES based, The Vertex. As an offensive option, Eber's Unification grants a large damage boost.
    • Amulet:

      • Rare: Spelldmg, % Physical as extra Lightning, % Global Phys dmg and Critmulti. % increased ES if CI.
      • Unique: Solstice Vigil for a Blasphemy setup, Aul's Uprising for a free Zealotry or Hatred Aura.
    • Chest:

      • Rare: A Hybrid EV/ES will grant us the best defenses.
      • Unique: Most of the uniques for this slot will be build defining and alter the entire gearing process: Queen of the Forest if you want to be fast, Eternity Shroud with full Shaper gear for ludicrous damage or Shavronne's Wrappings if you want to go Low Life.
    • Gloves:

      • Rare: Physical to Cold Conversion will be the most important stat. Aside from that, use this slot to fill missing resistances and additional defenses.
      • Unique: Oskarm for Assassin's Mark, Hrimburn for conversion, Asenath's Gentle Touch for corpse explosions, Shadows & Dust for Rampage.
    • Rings:

      • Rare: Assassin's Mark on Hit is a big priority. Aside from that, Life/ES, attributes and resistances.
      • Unique: Mark of the Shaper if other ring is Elder. Dream Fragments for Freeze Immunity. 2x Shaped Call of the Brotherhood if running Eternity Shroud.
    • Boots:

      • Rare: Movement Speed, Life/ES and Resistances.
      • Uniques: Sin Trek, Rainbowstride, Death's Door.
    • Belt:

      • Rare: Stygian Vise or Crystal Belt. An Onslaught Jewel for the former is highly recommended.
      • Unique: Headhunter for clearing, Coward's Legacy if running Atziri's Reflection.

    If you've got any questions, let me know!

    Posted: 11 Dec 2019 09:50 PM PST

    Hey guys, i love to play coc discharge Assassin and its my startet for 4 leagues now. Since this item is a thing now im thinking about going ranged Assassin in late game. Why? Cause I dodge all the melee problems that come with coc (cyclone)... What do you guys think? Tree will probably be the same.. Just the gearing changes

    [3.9] MULTIPLE BUILDS -- A number of new builds for the league if you still can't decide what to play. League starters, End-game all content, trade league and SSF builds--easy to follow.

    Posted: 11 Dec 2019 03:50 PM PST

    Hey Guys --

    A number of POB links for pretty extraordinary builds in the below link. Watched a friend of mine test a few of these out during his extra-long stream today, and wasn't disappointed. Few examples -- Toxic rain miner, Trickster BI Stormburst, Arc Miner, Bladeflurry/Cyclone starter budget, Chieftain BV 100% conversion, Inquis OOS/Brand LL Shav, and quite a few more.

    Note -- you need to have forked POB version 3.9 (if you don't have, link to download is in the google doc).

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16yFFXNruW9JkwpQHOcmIrasu2D9T5Sx57dh-efRZjdw/edit#gid=0

    If you have any questions on these, or any build you are running, stop by ttv/blindsir and he will explain the builds further and assist with your own theory-crafting.

    2 days away folks!!! Good luck with your early league grinding!

    Pestilent Strike Assassin

    Posted: 12 Dec 2019 03:41 AM PST

    Greetings exiles! Since we are having a boss league ahead of us I toyed with the idea of creating a poison build by using pestilent strike and bino's. to also help with the clear.

    I tried to put items that would have reasonable prices ( only possible questions would be the Cyclopean Coil and Shaper's Touch since we don't know what the prices of these items will be) and provide many layers of defense that would compliment the way a poison dps build functions.

    So for anyone wishing to play Pestilent Strike Assassin here's my build : https://pastebin.com/pctdmSFp ( The DPS skyrockets even more the more wither stacks you get and poisons you inflict but I wanted to show that even from the first seconds the damage is spectacular).

    If anyone has recommendations or criticism to my choices you are more than welcome to show me how I could improve it even more! Have a great league start and see you in Wraeclast!

    I'm thinking something like the D3 DH Turret build but i have no idea how to setup the build. Would it be pure phys/elemental/both :/

    If anyone can help me out with a base, and then i can work around it. Thanks.

    Tried cyclone c.w.c hannel in standturd, but unsure of ascendancy and links.

    Posted: 12 Dec 2019 02:40 AM PST

    Swapped the gems on my Necromancer, to cyclone, cast w. channel, desecrate, detonate dead, flesh offering, infused channeling.

    Seemed ok fun, but which ascendancy would this fit best? It is a bit squishy since I'm in mobs constantly.

    I can see the necomancer has some nodes that buff dmg when you consume corpses, but I'm not sure necromancer is the best for this kind of build?

    Also, which links do you recommend for cyclone, cast while channeling?

    Thanks is advance!

    [3.9] Kay's Spectre Summoner | All Bosses | League Starter | Levelling Guide | HC | SSF | PS4/XBox

    Posted: 11 Dec 2019 06:11 AM PST

    Hello everyone,

    I've just finished updating my spectre summoner build guide with the information from the patch notes. Spectres seem to have survived the patch nerfs. The major change is that now we need a level 25 gem to get 3 spectres (was level 21 in 3.8).

    https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2181275

    My build guide actually has two builds: Wand & Shield and Pledge of Hands / EB & MoM.

    Wand & Shield is focused on having high survivability while still having good DPS. It can take you from a fresh league start all the way to endgame bossing on cheap or self-crafted gear. The build is also designed to be playable on Solo Self Found and is hardcore viable. The recommend spectres, Slave Drivers, do not strain the graphics and will work well on PS4 and Xbox.

    Pledge of Hands / EB & MoM is focused on having massive DPS while maintaining good survivability. It is a showcase of the immense power of spectres, but it requires several build-enabling uniques that can be extremely expensive.

    The guide includes detailed gearing and gear progression, crafting guides, a levelling guide with full walkthrough, alternative spectre recommendations and more.

    The build thread was the most active in 3.8 with many people theorycrafting, making suggestions and sharing their own customisations.

    Ensnaring Arrow as a Curse on Hit setup as a Summoner

    Posted: 12 Dec 2019 02:11 AM PST

    So I wanted to start a Summoner again in 3.9 but because I already played a normal build last league I wanted to spice it up a little, using a Bow with Rain of Arrow curse on Hit setup. But now Ensnaring Arrow looks like the perfect skill for it. It's like a Curse in itself with the reduced movement speed and I'm just looking for a Spectre that uses a Projectile Attack so it benefits from the other effect too. My initial plan is to use Chrome-infused chimeral from High Gardens Act 8 but I'm not shure if the barrage like attack is actually a projectile attack, it could also be a spell? Not shure.

    Anyway the 5l Setup would be Ensnaring Arrow - Curse on Hit - Poachers Mark - Frostbite (using Hatred and the Chimera, is Vulnerability better?) - Fork/Chain/GMP?

    Any tips and suggestions are welcome :)

    How to utilize dark pact?

    Posted: 11 Dec 2019 06:31 PM PST

    So i basically wasn't aware dark pact existed until last night. Saw some game play videos of it and it looks incredibly fun. I was planning on starting BF Glad but i'm curious about dark pact now too. Is it mostly played casted on minions or on yourself? The build that i've looked at personally seems to be an occultist but i'm open to more options. If you have any experience with this skill i would appreciate your insight!.

    [3.9] Build Request - Raider

    Posted: 12 Dec 2019 01:58 AM PST

    This may seem oddly specific but it's an archetype that I always wanted to play. I used to be more into theorycraftig but havn't been too invested into PoE for the past few leagues due to work reasons. That's why I would really appreciate your help.

    About the build. The idea is to get as close to 75/75 Dodge as possible and stacking alot of damage Avoidance and Evasion. I don't particularily care too much about the skill, it can be melee or ranged, although I would really like to try Power Siphon with the new Barrage suppurt gem.

    So here are the cornerstones:

    • Must have Avatar of the Chase
    • Must have Avatar of the Veil
    • As much (Spell-)Dodge as possible

    Cool to have:

    • Power Siphon
    • Voidwalker
    • Mistwall
    • Aspect of the Cat

    As I said, it's more about the defensive layers than the skills. So it can also be Frostblades, Cyclone, Bladeflurry, Smite ir anything bow related.

    So if you feel like it go ahead and make some suggestions. I'll definately look at every single one. Thanks for your help!

    Awakened added chaos damage with Toxic Rain Mines

    Posted: 12 Dec 2019 12:58 AM PST

    Would added chaos damage with +1 gem level end up with more damage then some of the other TR mine supports?

    So far I'm looking at:

    • Toxic Rain

    • Blastchain

    • Minefield

    • Vicious Projectiles

    • Void manipulation

    • Empower (in a +1 bow with +2 supports)

    With options for efficacy, trap and mine damage, swift assembly, decay and added chaos. It'll be my first time playing mines, so really have no idea what would be best.

    [3.9] Flicker Strike Slayer - perm frenzy with bleed - POB help needed

    Posted: 12 Dec 2019 12:08 AM PST

    I am trying to make a flicker strike build that takes advantage of the change to Endless Hunger --> Unaffected by bleed while leeching.

    POB: https://pastebin.com/jtYEsCU0

    I threw it together pretty haphazardly just trying to get 100% bleed chance and lots of crit.

    I decided to go dual wield and phys using Varunastras that count as all 1h weapons for the nearby crit nodes.

    Only The Red Trail/The Golden Rule are required. Haemophilia and Voidheart help complete the bleed chance.

    My clearest problem is survivability with only 4k life, 29% evade, 39% dmg reduction

    I am looking for suggestions for ways to boost both survivability and damage further. Thanks!
