    3.9 builds with great clear speed?

    Posted: 31 Dec 2019 03:55 AM PST

    I'm pretty much done with my TR mine league starter now, I've accumulated about 10-12ex to spend on my next character (can easily get more but don't feel like playing with mines anymore).

    Just wondering what's a build that's:

    1) Got great clear speed

    2) Decent to great bossing

    3) Not a summoner, miner or trapper build

    Any ideas? Thanks!

    LL Ball Lightning Miner

    Posted: 30 Dec 2019 07:33 PM PST

    Just a small showcase of a build I'm relatively proud of, as of now.

    Elder kill: https://streamable.com/sfhx4 T16 Hunter: https://streamable.com/lvqtm

    Path of Building: https://pastebin.com/zE23SH04

    I started as life based and made some upgrades before realizing if I wanted more EHP and damage at the same time, low life was the way to go. Most of the gear was crafted from bases with fossils, but the rings were bought on trade (they were pretty cheap). I also managed to inadvertently wise oak balance, which is a pretty powerful defensive layer that I didn't appreciate until after the fact.

    Duelist Metamorph Killer?

    Posted: 30 Dec 2019 03:23 PM PST

    I'm looking for some help deciding on a build. I leveled a duelist up to the mid 80s, went Slayer, but I don't want to play cyclone. I'm looking for a boss killer that I could roll on a 5-6ex budget. I'm open to respeccing champion or gladiator if needed.

    Any suggestions?

    Gladiator Cyclone + The surrender

    Posted: 31 Dec 2019 02:01 AM PST

    I am thinking of doing this build.

    I saw some examples in poeninja and it seems very interesting.

    Someone who played with one, what did you think? Is tank enough?

    Need an SSF Starter

    Posted: 31 Dec 2019 01:54 AM PST

    I´ve been playing trade league so far and got bored with it, wanted to try SSF.

    I want a very safe build that has very nice boss clearing. It should have satisfying mapping of some sorts (chaining, explosion)

    And id rather not play a minion build.

    Can you help me? :)

    Spellcaster totally worthless now?

    Posted: 31 Dec 2019 01:41 AM PST

    Seems like my ice nova build can't do shit..

    Handling T16 pretty easy except bosses, Metamorph of course and sometimes i'm getting one-shotted out of the blue

    I'm not sure what's up with the damage???

    Or is it just that spellcaster are totally shit right now?

    I need some help : "bossing"

    Posted: 31 Dec 2019 03:59 AM PST

    Hello,

    I am currently playing the build in the link below with incinerate cwc bodyswap.

    Honestly one of my favorite build for the "fun" aspect. Cleaning the white and blue mob is a blast but Yellow and Bosses are a pain... the damage are too low and my only option actually is to swap cwc/bodyswap with gems to increase incinerate damage (but I lose the fun...).

    Do you have ideas to improve the build witouth deleting CwC? My issue is that I don't have "money" (just 8C .. no ex) so it's hard for me to go the Trade way (never trade before also ^^), that explain the poor stuff :/

    3.9 Sabo Toxic Rain Mines!

    Posted: 30 Dec 2019 09:48 PM PST

    Hey guys, this is my first working build for 3.9. I have rerolled my character like 4 times already until I touched Sabo for the first time and fell in love with mines.

    Mechanics:

    • Throw mines, detonate, dodge
    • DoT which ramps up pretty quick as you have time to place max mines (19) before meta boss spawns.

    Pros:

    • Really freaking melts endgame bosses (youtube vid shows 800%+ max life meta boss melting)
    • Kinda tanky enough PROVIDED that you are wearing Kaom's and Xibaqua jewel
    • Blind + Dodge + 85% chaos res + Divine Flesh tankiness
    • Decent clear
    • Cheap to gear to be effective (Around 13 exa is already like 75% min-maxed)
    • TIP: Hold your "place Mines hotkey" then just spam detonate.

    Cons:

    • Only 22% Phys Dmg mitigation
    • Might die to weird clusterfuck off 1-shot mechanics?
    • Needs mana flask to sustain mines
    • Mines might not be everyone's playstyle

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Ascendancy:

    Bomb Specialist -> Pyro/Born -> Explosives

    Pantheon:

    Arakaali & Shakari

    Bandits:

    2pts

    Main Link:

    TR - Emp - Trap and Mine DMG - Vicious Proj - Swift Assembly - Blastchain

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Why Sabo and not Trickster?

    I have tried both and I must say that Sabo outperforms Trickster in both aspects. We do not need ES btw because of Divine Flesh. Sabo has around 80% inc AoE which helps a shit-ton with the TR pods overlapping on a single target that's why his dps is so huge. In addition, detonation speed is king.

    Starting out?

    Use Essence of Dread on a 6L shortbow, or just buy 6L bow with +2 lvl of bow gems which is around 30-50c. Carcass jack is also a decent choice.

    Did I miss anything?

    Just comment below and I'll answer when I have the time. :)

    CHEERS!!!

    Please help me improve my ED/bane build! Lots of questions inside.

    Posted: 31 Dec 2019 03:45 AM PST

    So i had quite a lot of time this league and started with ed/contagion, like always. It´s my favourite build and i would never play something else!

    The problem is: im quite a noob and can't figure out what next upgrades i should get to improve my single target damage and survivabilty in boss fights. I rely heavily on dodge and if something larger gets trough, it's the end for me most times. The struggle becomes most apparent with sirius, maybe more chaos resi improve my situation with onehits there?

    Is there maybe another 6-link setup that i should change to in my chest and drop bane cause i am aplying despair 21 already with my witchfire brew? I really love the spell though to have a quicker way to deal area damage compared to
    cont+ed. Maybe a blight setup there would help me with boss dps?

    Also what bases would make a good start to get my health over 6k to make the 2.2k es worth it with mom? Are vermillion rings worth it compared to the base life of corals? What about a watcher's eye with over time multi while having Malevolence enabled, are they worth the hefty price?

    My gems need improvement, i know that much. Switched to a bow lately and havent found or crafted better ones myself yet. Also i am a crafting noob that only alt and chaos spams my gear. Apart from that only basic jewel fossil crafting.

    My current budget is about 45 ex. I would love to do another craft like i did with my amulet, its not much but it feels good to create something yourself woth using. Also, is an empower level 4 worth it for my ed?

    Thank you so much in advance and have a safe start of 2020!

    Best overall miner on a big budget?

    Posted: 31 Dec 2019 02:23 AM PST

    Recently got my 36 challenges (jk 35, waiting for Baran fix) so sold all my gear and bought ancient orbs for HH gamble. Well i got one and now got ~ 100ex and looking to try out a miner, since i've never played one.

    The trend seems to be between Arc, Ball Lightning and pyroclast and i wanted to ask which can be minmaxed the most? With new awakening gems and such.

    Thank you and happy new year!

    Which bow build should I play?

    Posted: 31 Dec 2019 02:14 AM PST

    So I started the league with Arc mines and want to switch over to a bow build.

    I've looked around at a lot of guides but can't put my finger on which one is right for me.

    I have enough budget for most of them (2ex), right now My top choices are Explosive Arrow, Ice Shot and some type of poison bow build.

    I was wondering which one performs the best overall and would love to hear your opinions.

    What is the most potent Unleash spell and why?

    Posted: 31 Dec 2019 01:33 AM PST

    I feel like the logic might be similar to mines.
    Say you have a staff and chest, you may unload 4 casts per 2.64 seconds with Thunderous Salvos, so if you have 3 setups, you can get 3x4 unleash salvos that follow one one after the other with maybe a second delay in between.
    You can use the same spell in 3 different setups, which leads me to believe this is a quasi mine playstyle.
    That said, what would be the most potent skill to use? Firestorm? Arc? Spark? Fireball? Magma Orb? Frostbolt Ice Novas?
    Thoughts?

    Build specifically for fighting meta morphs?

    Posted: 30 Dec 2019 08:12 AM PST

    What would guys recommend as the best build for specifically fighting metamorphs? Don't care about clear speed, it can be total trash.. Just spesefically for metamorphs.. Is it Skeles? Mines? Bleed/Bow? Vortex?

    Perma Freeze/Shock Cyclone Elementalist (need advice/critique)

    Posted: 30 Dec 2019 08:01 PM PST

    So my build idea started off after I saw Ziz playing with a pair of Painseeker gloves which allow you to freeze and shock stuff as if you did 200% more dmg. Now he was using a bow build but I thought it would be more interesting for a melee skill like Cyclone (melee in 3.9 lul). I focused mainly on getting 200% life and freeze chance on the tree but I figured the Elementalist ascendancy and the Voidforge would make me apply a decent shock as well. The damage does seem low at only 500k but if I can keep most stuff frozen that would be ok with me.

    https://pastebin.com/vq2qsNgp

    I just kind of winged the talent tree so no idea if I overlooked something major but I am interested in seeing any improvements to the build or if this build will work at all. Thank You.

    Help with Storm Brand Elementalist

    Posted: 30 Dec 2019 06:49 PM PST

    So long story short, I started with Enki's Arc Witch and after the freeze bug on metamorphs switched to Storm Brand Golementalist https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2666929/page/1 . This was fun until I tried Sirus and my golems died and I died from Shimmeron. Didn't want to keep working with the stupid golems so respecced into the current POB below trying to utilize Non-Chaos as Extra Chaos (only the 5% version from incursion) mixed with an Inpulsa I found for better clear without the herald of ice shenanigans. I'm hoping to increase the DPS again as the Shimmeron 6 Charges version was around 500k per POB while this one is 200ish due to the drop of Primordial Chains and Anima Stone synergies. https://pastebin.com/LhQmzJdr

    I have about 3 Ex and a Primordial Chain and a 6 link 600 ES Chest with the same colors + a blue. I just don't want to rely on Golems for all of my damage scaling anymore.

    Awakened and normal support at the same time

    Posted: 30 Dec 2019 06:33 PM PST

    I just noticed that if we use the same support gem, but awakened version + normal version, we still increase our damages (at least the tooltip changes)

    As an example from my current char: pastebin if you want to check levels & cie still leveling & cie

    => Bane + Awakened Swift affliction + despair + efficacy + void manipulation + controlled destruction

    • With this setup and my gear, the ingame tooltip says 44887.8 dps (Low life, aura activated).
    • If i switch void manipulation (37% more chaos) to a lvl 17 swift affliction (41% more DoT), the tooltip now says 41933 chaos damage/s.
    • Obviously, without the gem, it's lower: 32764 DoT

    It looks like there is some penalty applied to the normal (or awakened) gem, but I can't really find any information.

    Is this really a thing (that we can use both at the same time) ? Do we have some information about some penalties or anything ?

    Looking for feedback on my cobra lash/blade fury assassin

    Posted: 30 Dec 2019 06:02 PM PST

    https://www.pathofexile.com/account/sony/view-profile/CelticCoward/characters

    Want to preface this by saying that i know i still need some bis items such as helmet and boots. Was looking for a easy enough build for ps4 that didnt rely on to many buttons since multiple skills on console is a pain. Basic playstyle is cobra lash for clear, and for bosses/metamorphs drop wither totem and stack poisons with blade furry and plague bearer. Its a little squishy but the life gained on hit really helps. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Especially on the tree. Been playing since harbringer but this is my first attempt at my own build that hasnt gone tits up. Thank yall

    anyone doing chieftan BV? Seems incredibly fast for how tanky it is.

    Posted: 30 Dec 2019 05:59 PM PST

    Kinda seems like one of those too good to be true type deals considering its idiotically fast and still manages to shred bosses, WHILE being tanky as all hell

    Toxic Rain Miner - Help me improve.

    Posted: 30 Dec 2019 05:44 PM PST

    This is how the build currently is, at lvl 84: https://pastebin.com/SvnfhTkk (this build was posted in the forums but seems like the person who posted is not updating it, especially the path of build (gear wise is very diferent from mine)

    improvements he already mentioned but i'm not sure if i should take;

    amulet: "impresence onyx amulet" = 100% uptime with dispair vs "solstice vigil" = free temporal chains (use solstice + witcherfire brew and have both) NOT SURE IF ITS POSSIBLE.

    annointments: corruption = 15% + dot / 10% chaos dot / 15% chaos damage

    The build is doing fine at least until tier 13 (haven't tested above 13 yet), the only problem i have sometimes is with metamorphs with chaos res, i die to them ocasionally the ones without res die almost instantly.

    Any feedback is very welcome, three, gear, gems, whatever you think would help improve the build.

    Looking for a build using The Saviour on Duelist

    Posted: 30 Dec 2019 05:18 PM PST

    Hey,

    I saw a dope build and decided to buy the sword (after it didnt drop for several kills).

    This is the PoB to that build https://pastebin.com/aMUidctZ My gear is not on the same level as this since I am rather poor after spending 25exalt on the sword but I honestly love it so I am fine with that.

    Its a brilliant build but Flicker Strike is giving me aneurysms on a regular basis so I am looking for another clear skill but with similar clear speed. I understand that might be easier said than done but I will take a slower map clear without having a headache after 10mins of play.

    The current build is for Champion but I am happy to play any of the 3.

    Thanks
