First time SSF - which summoner should I play?

Posted: 06 Feb 2020 08:34 PM PST

This is my first league, am 36/40 and pretty finished with what I wanted to do in standard, so now i'd like to give SSF a try.

Despite it being everywhere and being meta, i'm yet to play a summoner build so I thought an op meta build would be perfect to ease into SSF.

The question is - which build do I follow?

I'm a huge cyclone fan so I guess I would ideally like to play a CWC setup - probably a zombie focused build then? Theres so many guides to follow but many seem to depend on the str stacking Baron and i'd rather not be unique dependent if this is the case

Should I follow one of Steelmage's POBs

Or maybe a guide like the king of all summoners

I had a look at poe.ninja but I feel like i'm not yet knowledgeable enough to draw fully accurate conclusions just by looking at other SSF builds, I don't want to miss something that the build depends on and end up somewhere I shouldnt be - and because it's a while into the league I imagine a lot of the high level SSF players have gear that would take a lot of time to get from league start

Things like gearing i'm unsure of how will go in SSF as so far my experience has just been for characters to rush maps, spend a few chaos on resist capping then farming for currency to buy better gear from there so any tips/suggestions would be appreciated - so I would probably prefer a build that lays out gear progression as I expect this to be a much different beast in SSF

My overall goal in SSF is to get a Sirus kill

Bodyswap totems and close combat

Posted: 07 Feb 2020 12:15 AM PST

Was wondering whether it was viable to make a build along these lines.

There's been a few bodyswap totem builds, but generally the skill seems lackluster, only meant to be used for travel rather than dosing.

However, I noticed that the close combat buff gives more cast speed to your next travel skill, of which bodyswap is. It is not really practical to sustain the buff for self cast bodyswap, but the totems should get the bonus without resetting the buff.

So the play style would be place your totems, then start attacking with a close combat supported attack skill, so you're fighting alongside your totems. Best part, you shouldn't have to keep recasting totems as they would follow you around for some distance.

I envisaged a hierophant build, where you could have up to 6 totems (+2 multi totem, +1 bond, +1 hierophant, +1 gear). For attack skill, would use cyclone with CwC-desecrate and close combat of course. The cyclone doesn't need stellar accuracy, just enough to keep the buff up.

As for bodyswap links - spell totem, multi totem, fire pen, faster casting, combustion (or something like that).

I think the main issues would be survivability (if you're going into close range with your totems, you'll need to have decent defenses) and the fact that your using a sword/axe (rather than a caster weapon - although bodyswap does have a non spell component, so maybe spell damage mods aren't a huge loss).

Any thoughts?

POB Life Leech help

Posted: 06 Feb 2020 11:13 PM PST

Hi,

I'm doing a cyclone build and I wanted to increase it's life leech - also, it may be not even necessary, tell me if you think it's useless - but when I add the "Martial Experience" node, my lifeleech stays the same.Here is my pastebin: https://pastebin.com/FzNGk1pK

Other two things:1 - When I try to add another skill gem, I choose firstly the attack, how do I do so the support gems appear in order of DPS?2 - What would be a nice single target skill? I'm thinking about Flicker Strike or Vaal Strike

I'm right now running T10/11 maps, it's a nice build, at least for ps4. Luckily I got 2 exalteds, things there are too expansive.

ps: All tips not related to the main question are also appreciated!

100ex + HH Delve Build Ideas Needed

Posted: 06 Feb 2020 04:22 PM PST

Hi,

As the title says, I'm trying to figure out my next build to go this league. I've never delved much passed 400 and figured I'd dig into it now (sorry). I've been looking into BV and Ice Shot, but am open to other ideas!

I'd like for the build to feel pretty smooth and effortless with not too much flask management (also maybe phasing, or using phase run would suffice). Im wary of the button press requirements of mines (I've quit leagues due to hand issues), and I'm also a bit worried about trying one of the Immune builds, but I honestly don't know too much about what that play style requires.

I have about 100ex, HH, and 3 inspired learnings ready to go. I'd love to hear about your experiences with the above builds or other builds you would like to recommend!

How can I improve my build from here?

Posted: 06 Feb 2020 04:21 PM PST

I have about 20ex to work with for upgrades but I'm feeling a bit stuck. My defense is decent but I'm still finding it a little squishy. Damage is ok but also a bit lacking in red maps. Not really sure where I can go from here.

Playing Blade Vortex Assassin scaling elusive and power charges.

Looking for Suggestions for a Melee Build

Posted: 06 Feb 2020 07:20 AM PST

Looking for ideas for a melee build. I'm not worried about AW8 or anything, but I want to be able to handle T16 metamorphs (eventually) and end game bosses.

I was able to kill Sirus with my guardian, but none of my other characters have held my interest long enough to get that far again.

Interested in a build that:

Could possibly be SSF/League Start, but still scale into T16 with long-term investment.
Doesn't need insane clear speed. I mainly want a strong bossing/meta hero.
Prefer to dual wield, but open to a fast 2h'r. Ideally no shield (if possible).
Can't do Flicker Strike. Looks fun, but makes me nauseous. lol
I'm not the most mechanically skilled player, so I prefer something with either strong defenses and/or strong sustain.
I like delving, so something that do well there is an added bonus.
I generally prefer elemental skills, but am open to pure physical too.
Explosions are bonus.

Am I asking for way too much?

Mana Guardian - First Attempt, Need Help

Posted: 06 Feb 2020 06:21 PM PST

Hello, this is my first time attempting a mana guardian. I love the build so far, and it has decent clear and decent bossing. Most of the time i feel pretty tanky, but then there are other fights where i feel like i have no sustain and not tanky at all. Any advice on the build would be appreciated.

The Baron Corpse Explosion

Posted: 06 Feb 2020 05:55 AM PST

The Baron gives your zombies a 2% life leech to you and using Aukuna's Will lets you target your zombies as corpses. Would Detonate Dead proc the life leech? Also does % minion damage work with Detonate dead?

Help w/ Caster w/ Lots of Evasion

Posted: 06 Feb 2020 05:50 AM PST

Heya folks, how are you all today?

I have some currency to make a new character and i really want to make it good for the final 'lap' of the league.

In all games that's possible i always make some rogue-mage hybrid and i really love this concept (Thank you Shadowblade from Divinity: Original Sin 2).

I thought about using the new shield Mistwall with Kintsugi + Wind Dancer for the 'rogue' part, and using Purifying Flame for the caster part, but i'm having some creativity issues to choose a class, i really wanted to go trickster but i don't know if it's going to be good enough without conversions & Eternity Shroud.

So, does anyone have any suggestions? :)
