    How Do I create those satisfying Explosion Chains?

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 05:19 PM PDT

    I'm theory crafting for next league and want to play a quick farming build that just runs through and explodes packs to make quick currency. However, I have no idea how to get entire packs to explode. I know autobombers make use of multiple heralds to trigger off of each other, but can I make entire packs explode through simpler methods? Really my question is, do enemies that die from explosions count as enemies I killed? If so would an explosion chest or obliteration with tons of damage scaling be enough to clear entire packs? or do explosions trigger on hit effects like curses? If so could you explode packs through Asenath's Gentle Touch and tons of damage scaling? Am I missing something and these work, or do they not work? I'm guess I'm just generally confused on how this mechanic works. Also, If you have any builds that sound like what I want could you include those so I can look at them?

    What are some easy ways to gain cast speed?

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 08:19 PM PDT

    I had been thinking in doing a Penance Brand build, but I don't see any good way in gaining a high amount of cast speed(Above 250~300% if possible).

    Is there a way of achieving that?

    Any Zephri's Last Breath build at all ?

    Posted: 21 Aug 2020 02:21 AM PDT

    The nerfs seems severe but is there any build that actually use this intelligently besides """just don't get hit bruh"""

    Or is it truly Olafed till they could figure out how to fix/remake it in the future™ ?

    Leveling SS to go SRS?

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 10:46 AM PDT

    Can anyone show me how to plan out a character to level quickly with spellslinger and then convert to SRS (like ghazzy's build) once I'm through the acts? I would like to practice this a couple of times, but don't really know how to go about it? Should I follow the tree for Ghazzy's SRS build and just get spellslinger gems? Should I follow another tree and farm up regrets?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Toxic Rain and Questions

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 06:10 AM PDT

    Hello all,

    3.12 will be my 3rd league. I started with 2 weeks left of Metamorph and got hooked. Starting to branch out into creating my own builds with ideas from others that already exist. I will post my POBs later that I've created for TR. Have a few minutes of downtime at work so figured I'd post now (and it turned into a novel). I love DoT builds and I have made a lot the past few leagues. I try to keep to a 5ex budget as I reroll characters so often my budget is usually from small crafting and ex drops. I can't rely on farming sirus/conquerors, etc. With TR that budget is almost entirely spent on the +1/+2 bow (which will have fine resale value). This league I'm debating between starting Trickster Wintertide Brand or Toxic Rain (Traditional, Mines, or even pathfinder). (I did Occultist WB to deathless A8 sirus in Harvest league with only my resists and my wand being "harvest crafted"). Everything else was decent but not amazing gear as I assumed Harvest would be going away.

    Edit my Shot at a TR Miner Trickster: https://pastebin.com/1WekkEfB

    Multiple questions incoming.

    My Wintertide brand clear was fun. I really enjoy proliferation builds. TR doesn't have that but the damage is a lot more immediate and I don't need to worry about EE or proc crits to ramp damage that way.

    When considering TR, I've seen multiple ways to scale the damage. One I hadn't considered that I gleaned from another build is attack speed because of the "speed" at which the projectiles release from the mines and hit the ground...is that worth it vs just scaling Chaos damage and damage over time and Chaos dot multi? I tested this with onslaught and increased attack speed on jewels and it's noticeable in terms of speed but I didn't "notice" a difference in damage output (to my eye as I ran through content/minor bosses). I feel like they are both expensive to acquire, just pick a battle I suppose? Thoughts?

    Also, one build in particular has me curious (POB when i can). Using high impact mines (vs blastchain) with the 4% chance to do double damage. POB immediately doubles/quadruples my damage from that swap. Way more than a lvl 4 empower would gain me. At only 4% what's the likelihood that it actually occurs (4%...right) and how does that...feel? Since it's only the HIT that it scales it seems odd that POB would jump my damage so significantly unless I'm leaving something out. If I read TR right, there is 1 actual "hit" of the arrows. The flowers and the area DoT from the explosion are just DoT/area damage and no "hit" correct? It might be a great DoT bonus on bosses if that double damage occurs during my first volley of 10-15 minutes, but after that it seems unreliable.

    I'm also debating trickster v sabo v (unlikely) pathfinder. I'm leveling a trickster right now as a test case for league start using a silverbough and just crushing content already even without QoL for mines through Sabo ascendency. (I've played a different Sabo before, wanted to see how Trickster deals with mines) Anyone used trickster miner for late game? My goal is always to at least beat A4 Sirus with my starter build before my ADD kicks in and I go for my next 3-4 builds of the league. Not needing a second six link my plan for Sabo is Kaoms for life or Carcass Jack for the deeps. The obvious choice for trickster is carcass jack until I can afford a well-rolled sadist garb or atziri armor with evasion and ES to boost the ES portion of trickster. However, no matter how I skin this character unless I lean HEAVY into ES on my gear I can't gain very much ES as compared to a pure life based Sabo. EHP is about the same but that makes ES worse as you can only manually replenish the life portion and won't have chaos immunity. Only pure ES build I did was my LL Wintertide Brand character this league and I'm not a huge fan of ES builds for that reason. I could PROBABLY lean hard to ES late into maps and go CI with this build with a ton of investment...but that'll be difficult to attain for me while trying to max evasion as well...thoughts?

    Another one...TR does it's DoT FAST so is a solstice vigil and equipping temp chains worth it or does that make the damage better but longer and therefore worse in terms of survivability for me? Also it means a witchfire brew is "slightly" less effective. If that makes sense...I like the idea of temp chains on nearby enemies, especially for trickster since I don't get the acrobatics/evade/dodge nodes on tree. Less of an issue if I go Sabo and life-based entirely.

    OK...final question for real...to use or not to use Caustic arrow? Many ways to do this, I like the idea of Caustic arrow totems or arrow nova it to spread it everywhere. I know if I don't use Kaom's I can slot it in a 4 o r 5 link (on the cheap) to stack some deeps/assist with clear...but I could also utilize those slots for other things...I'll think of those eventually.

    Thanks for reading my novel.

    Brand Builds, Totem Builds, Ballista Builds; what is your number one choice in those categories for me to League Start and clear all content next League?

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 12:54 PM PDT

    Currently Storm Brand, Siege Ballista, and a few totem builds stand out to me. Totems are what attracted me to the game initially, and I want to have fun with a similar playstyle next League, regardless of if it's being suboptimal compared to other builds. As long as I can league start and kill A8 Sirus, I'm happy. What would be your #1 pick? Whether it be for efficiency or for fun.

    Loved my ED contagion spellslinger this league - great clear speed, one button, plus a dot! What else checks those boxes?

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 03:03 PM PDT

    Granted, that particular build benefited HEAVILY from deterministic crafting so it was easy to build incrementally. Loved bypassing energy shield and just BLAZING through maps.

    Note I'm on console, so I'm not too keen on minion builds since they kill the already poor performance.

    Gems Question - Fastest Act 1 clear as leaguestart bow Ranger

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 10:40 AM PDT

    Assuming no tree/gem changes for a leaguestart

    Youre given burning arrow, CA, galvanic arrow, ice shot, and split arrow as first attacks and get lesser poison, mirage archer, onslaught, and volley as first suppots

    Do I just burning arrow down Brutus? What about Merveil?

    I have an idea of what I want to do going into act 2, but early leveling as a Ranger doesnt feel great. Also, I feel like I have no choice but to get the life nodes as the projectile nodes in the tree are such ass. I tried looking this up but the information I found seems really dated. Can someone who plays a lot of ranger provide some insight on what they do?

    Help with my weird Ele Hit Necro

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 01:40 PM PDT

    So I've made this weird Elemental Hit Necro which uses Poet's Pen & Corpse Pact to scale attack speed, while also using self-hit from Scold's to trigger reverse chill and perma onslaught. It's been fun to play so far and manages red maps fairly well, but single target damage is still lacking and also defensively although the sustain is great eHP (and chaos res) are too low leading to occassional instant deaths.

    I would really like to improve it and take on endgame content, but not sure from where to start. My budget is really low, only a bit more than 1 ex left and not a lot of time to farm currency.

    Obviously I should 6-link my body armour, but don't have enough currency. Are there any other places to start where I can improve on low budget? Boots are horrible, but I really need cannot be frozen.

    I'd be happy for any ideas, also for the passive tree. Was thinking to get a cluster jewel instead of going for leech on the right side of the tree maybe, but no clear plan yet.

    Spellslinger vs Classic ED/Cont Trickster

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 06:16 AM PDT

    The eternal debate :

    From early mapping to end-game bossing (I know neither builds are for bossing), which of these is better ?

    From a logical stand-point, Spellslinger lets you add Soulrend but Classic ED/Cont lets you have more auras.

    Is spellslinger better in early league before you can switch to LL at which point you need discipline ?

    What's your opinion on that, fellow Exiles ?

    Looking for a suggested t16 100% deli map build for 50ex budget

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 09:14 AM PDT

    Hello,

    so I would like to make one more build before league end, one that is made for 100% deli map, but one for a sort of budget of 50ex. I already have a divine flesh stone golem build but I just cant play it anymore. Was hoping there are builds that can safely do 100% deli maps on a somewhat budget.

    I also am not interested in any aura stacking build. Any suggestions would be awesome

    If such a build does not exist for that kind of budget, then all good.

    Thanks :)

    What is a build I can use to farm up currency for this HoT autobomber while staying in the same ascendancy?

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 09:06 AM PDT

    Build here: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2891996

    What build could I play to farm up currency and stay within the same ascendancy and preferably pretty close to the same tree?

    Haven't done a CoC build this league, looking for a good all-around for 10ex(if it exists)

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 06:56 AM PDT

    So I stopped playing couple weeks ago, I got the itch again and I thought a CoC would be quite fun.

    I know they aren't typically the most safe or budget builds, but I would make some DPS compromise to make it safer.

    What I'm looking for specifically is a build that can do most stuff comfortably but won't absolutely demolish guardians in seconds
