Blazing Salvo Totems (Soul Mantle) FEELS GREAT!

Posted: 19 Sep 2020 10:42 AM PDT

Just wanted to PSA, that Blazing Salvo is really solid as many expected with totem Heirophant. Running Soul Mantle etc for damage stacking, but even with 4 links on it I'm shredding all content and bosses at the moment. I tried using Fork on it and I think it may be bugged or just not work as expected, couldn't really see additional hits on it. GMP does seem to work really well though, if you place totems properly near boss enemies and such most, if not all projectiles will hit. It feels real good friends. Good luck out there!

Edit: POB Link - https://pastebin.com/GMccTxtt (Fireball placeholder for blazing salvo, also using Void Sphere, its labeled) Enjoy!

Edit 2: For those fortunate enough to get the currency to get an Atziri's Reflection I highly recommend grabbing a coward's legacy and Pain Attunement for even more huge damage. Also I haven't tried Rain of Splinters yet, but so far doesn't seem necessary. Will update when I have the currency to just mess around a bit!

Archmage Fireball

Posted: 20 Sep 2020 01:06 AM PDT

This league I was looking at playing an ignite trickster as a league start. While reading up on mechanics as I make my own build (copy someone else's but change a few things to make it worse and call it my own) I saw an idea which seemed cool to me. Archmage fireball.

I liked the idea especially when you use agonistic and MoM for defense. While putting a few numbers through PoB. I can get better endgame numbers from Hiro than trickster.

Is league starting a hiro using fireball going go be a waste of time? Am I better to league start with a normal build then make a second character instead?

Not enjoying my minion build. Looking for a build to reroll.

Posted: 19 Sep 2020 10:05 PM PDT

So, I've tried a minion build for the first time this league. The build is great but I'm really not enjoying it, I've realized that minions its just not for me :(

Anyway, its time to reroll :) (actually tomorrow, quite tired today). One thing I really want to do this league is push to at least 700+ depth on delve since its one my favourite things on the game. But I also want to try some end game heists as well.

Messing a bit on poe.ninja I'm considering (although any new suggestion if more than welcome) those builds in no particular order:

Toxic Rain Pathfinder: the reason for Pathfinder over Trickster is that if I end up considering this character to go "full delve" I could respec to a Deadeye Icicle Mines later on. I'm not sure how much better Trickster is for pure Toxic Rain though.
Blade Vortex Assassin: I believe most of Assassins are running Poison BV with Herald of Agony on a secondary link, which I guess have quite a good single target DPS, I'm not sure about clear. Last time I've played BV (Metamorph) I've played with Somayd's build which had quite a good clear but I was lacking single target damage due to bad gear =(
Blade Vortex Cheiftain: I've never played as Chieftain but I suppose the thing is to convert to Fire damage and use Herald of Ash (I've got Celestial Herald mtx, so thats a plus haha). To be honest I have no idea how they compare survive or damage-wise to BV Assassin, be it Poison BV or any other variant. Are they more resistant but with less damage?
Fireball Trickster: Fireball seem to have quite a good clear this league but I don't know about their single single target damage. Is Firewall really helping on that? I don't know much about Fireball builds since it didn't not seem to be a popular build last leagues.

In any case, you all are probably tired of such posts but I'm once again asking for your help.

Sorry if I missed any important information, English is not my native language and I'm quite tired haha

Ice Spear Assassin

The Idea is simple. Max crit. Shatters.

Was wondering If there's a way to get some decent ES/EVA/AR and/or if there is a way to cut the tree a bit.

Help me understand

Posted: 20 Sep 2020 04:17 AM PDT

If I use Lightning trap with Blast chain support. That means I can scale the damage with both mine damage AND trap damage right?

Cause there's a low of Mine/Trap damage nodes on the tree, so my though is that I'd get double value from those.

Lightning Arrow Struggles

Posted: 20 Sep 2020 04:16 AM PDT

Hey folks,

Been following this guide: https://www.poebuilds.net/larrow (Care, the site is aids without adblock) . I know I'm only on day 2, but my single target damage just feels kind of meh. I am currently level 80 and going to work on my uber labs to complete the ascendancy

I guess I was spoiled with my TR trickster in harvest, but what could I potentially roll a ranger into? Current thoughts are ice shot if I finish this build off and I still feel iffy on it; mainly because I have a 6L death's opus

I'd like to be able to zoom zoom through maps and labs/delve. Won't be deep delving but just enjoy going fast, clearing fast, and enough single target that I can kill my own bosses.

Any bow builds in the ranger class (not toxic rain or ice shot) that you may suggest?

Archmage bl or arc templar?

anyone figured out how to do EO with hexblast?

Posted: 20 Sep 2020 03:50 AM PDT

I haven't done any testing with EO and hexblast. I'm doing cold conversion archmage setup, so I do (20%) lightning and (80%) cold right now. do I do something simple like have Armageddon brand on boss first to keep re-activating EO?

Anyone else figure out a nice setup to get juicy EO hex blasts?

Need help for TR pathfinder gems

Posted: 20 Sep 2020 03:49 AM PDT

Hello !

TL;DR : Made a TR Pathfinder league starter, nothing new, very classic stuff, but I have many empty gem slots so I'm looking for suggestion to fill them.

I made a Toxic Rain Pathfinder build and I league started with it : https://pastebin.com/8YHbZ8VW

I have trouble filling up my gem slots. My current gem setup is :

TR/Vicious proj/Void manip/Mirage archer/Efficacy/Swift affliction (will be swapped with Empower later)
Wither/Spell totem/Multiple totems/Faster casting
CDWT/Steelskin/Increased duration/Summon stone golem
Dash/Second wind/Vaal grace/Blink arrow
Summon skitterbots/Enlighten/Blood rage/Malevolence (currently using Flesh and Stone for defensiveness instead of Malevolence and because I don't have Enlighten yet)
Despair on a Profane Proxy ring to use it with skitterbots

So here's some explanation :

I'm using stone golem so that when I get damaged, I have some extra life regen to compensate blood rage's degen because my base life regen is trash.
I'm using blink arrow just in case I have to cross a gap that is too big for dash, so I almost never use it but I had extra spare gem slots.
I'm thinking about putting the CWDT setup in a 6L and link Vaal grace to it so it really last a looong time.
Blood rage is just here for attack speed and frenzy charges. I think that's how it's supposed to work on TR builds.

I've seen guides using Frenzy+Culling strike but I already have too much button to press (skills + flasks all the time with a Pathfinder) and I've seen Vaal Clarity too but so far I'm on a 5L TR and with an enduring divine mana flask and I don't have any mana problems, so I thought I won't bother with an extra button to press. I thought about using Vaal Cold Snap to generate frenzy charges during bosses, any thoughts on that ? (I could link it to the CWDT setup too to benefit from increased duration support)

Apart from this, it's a very classic TR Pathfinder build. I'm new to TR, to Pathfinder and to dodge/evasion builds so I'm open to any suggestion y'know.

I need help to fill my remaining gem slots with something.

Toxic rain, poison BV, ED/Contagion and specters.

Posted: 20 Sep 2020 12:01 AM PDT

Which out of these will take you the furthest?

From the TR videos i've seen they use caustic arrow, and to be honest it just looks clunky as fuck.

Poison BV, put 50 exalted into a build last season, and it would still randomly get 1 shot, how can a 1 shot build exist in a league where you simply cannot die?

ED/Contagion seemingly has good single target and is a extremely fast map clearer, but people say it's boss dps is incredibly low?

Cobra Lash questions

Posted: 20 Sep 2020 03:02 AM PDT

What works better for cobra lash, daggers or claws?

If the majority of the damage is poison, how do you scale it properly? Is it through +chaos/%chaos damage?

What's the best ascendancy for it as a starter? I see Assassin a lot, presumably from the poison nodes, but I've seen people mention pathfinder as well.

Playing an assassin/trickster SSF.

What do you think has the most potential for most damage?

Trickster storm brand archmage

Anyone tried Apep's Rage with Hexblast?

Posted: 19 Sep 2020 10:25 PM PDT

The skill has a ton of more multipliers due to Doom stacking, so dual wielding them and building crit with Archmage or something might give some massive damage in theory.

Redemption sentries damage upgrades?

Posted: 20 Sep 2020 01:25 AM PDT

Hey guys

First time playing spectre summoner and following kay's guide. I've somewhat transitioned from her base build (slave drivers) to redemption sentries but the damage is incredibly low, currrently around 300k dmg from PoB apparently. I was wondering if anyone can help figure out and advise any obvious upgrades I've missed.

Thanks

What type of miner?

Posted: 20 Sep 2020 12:23 AM PDT

Hey all!

Wanting to roll up a miner, I have a few ex I can spend on it. I'm looking for help on what skill to use as I've never played a miner before. I want to be able to clear as well as boss.

I love the idea of GC but a lot of people are saying it's weak. I can see Ball Lightning is the most used on PoENinja. Bonus points if you can add any tips for leveling (Arc?) and a guide/pob.

Thanks!

How does cast while channeling work with the new steel skills?

Posted: 19 Sep 2020 11:13 PM PDT

Does anyone know how it works? will it cast call of steel and the actual steel gem, just the steel gem, or none of the above? Wanted to try a cyclone lancing steel setup (or a CoC setup)

EDIT: original question answered somewhat, however im still unclear, could a CoC setup work to cast the call of steel skill?
