    Very friendly reminder for new players asking for builds

    Posted: 30 Jun 2021 06:24 AM PDT

    I've seen these a lot lately and wanted to offer some input from a PoE veteran.

    Asking for a build with "great clear speed, fast bossing, league-start ability, high scaling with investment, fun to play but not too many buttons, HCSSF, and off-meta if possible" isn't going to get you far, because you're asking for a unicorn.

    There are a lot of builds that do a few of these things, but very, VERY few that can pull off such a huge list of requirements.

    Fast mapping and fast bossing are tough to balance. League-starter builds are often not great at scaling to late endgame. But the biggest thing to understand is that "meta" builds are meta for a reason: They do all of these things. I've seen multiple people ask for a build that meets 5+ different criteria, and after other comments have suggested TR, minions, Vortex, slams, etc the OP will reply with their dislike for meta skills.

    This is one of my favorite subs, and we're trying to help as much as we can. Just understand that you might need to relax your criteria a little bit. You'll also likely get a lot more comments with good build suggestions.

    Love you all <3

    Elemental Hit Raider guide?

    Posted: 01 Jul 2021 04:10 AM PDT

    I league started late and looking for a good build to push to 36/40 now. Tried CoC but didn't really like it. I like ele hit but it looks insanely expensive. So does anyone know a good guide for a 'moderate' budget elemental hit raider? Got around 50 ex to spare.

    Resource for Learning to Scale Damage?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2021 07:14 PM PDT

    Hey folks, I'm still a POE noob, but veteran enough know to have gotten fairly comfortable following guides. I've slain maven, shaper, elder, etc. Even managed a Feared once by the skin of my teeth. So I'm slowly starting to try to learn how making my own build might someday work.

    I just...can't seem to figure out how to scale damage. I understand that attack skills scale based on weapon damage while spells scale based on gem level. And I understand that physical skills are all about those high DPS weapons.

    But it seems like every time I try to experiment, I get stuck around 200-300K DPS. I pick a skill of choice, say Ice Nova or Firebolt or whatever. I can make a tree that, might not be perfect, but I think is fairly decent and prioritizes the right things. But I can't for the life of me figure out how to crack even 1M DPS. I guess, it could be all in the gear. But then, whenever I follow a build guide, I always feel like my gear is mostly just life and resists.

    I realize I won't get specific answers here, and that's okay. I'm not trying to scale a specific skill. I'm trying to understand how skills scale in general so I can understand what I need to do to take, say, creeping frost from 20K to 1M DPS.

    Cold damage league starters?

    Posted: 01 Jul 2021 12:23 AM PDT

    I've been trying to find a nice league start build, I have a cold-damage-only personal challenge - I have played mostly stuff such as frost blades, hrimsorrow+blade vortex, ice shot, so on.

    I looked into some cold DoT builds recently, creeping frost, vortex and whatnot, but do those also have that "shatter" sound effect?

    Anyways - I never tried energy shield, totems or summoning but would be okay testing those things out.

    My priority would be map clear as opposed to single target, and I LOVE full cold conversion stuff. I don't mind squishy ranged builds, but I'm a fan of facetanking, so I often rip due to that, oopsie.

    Also, I've been thinking about trying ssf (but not hardcore), and would love to see how different an ssf build even looks like.

    How do I improve Stormbrand Assassin?

    Posted: 01 Jul 2021 03:47 AM PDT

    https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3039923

    I've linked my pastebin, and Fyregrass' stormbrand assassin build.

    I'm fairly comfortable with survivability. What changes can I make to improve dps. I can't afford a headhunter, so that upgrade along with badge and doryani jewel I won't be able to do.

    Am I at the limit of dps in this build, without sacrificing survivability?

    What's a meta build?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2021 08:28 PM PDT

    Hi all, tittle basically. I played a lot of poe but t Ultimatum is the first league that i reached red maps and i really enjoyed the progression of the build that i played.

    I wanted to start with a strong build next league that doesn't struggle through the campaig and can take me to kill Sirus, Shaper and Elder, since I never killed them.

    So i was wondering what a "meta build" and if you can give me some examples to check out and try any of those next league. Ty in advance.

    Edit: i forgot to mention, i don't know if it's meta or not but i can't play build like BF/BB cause they absolutely destroy my pc :(

    Elemental Hit Raider -- Bow or Wand?

    Posted: 01 Jul 2021 02:21 AM PDT

    So I am thinking about leaguestart again and very few builds can compete with raider's zoom on leaguestart. I did TR this league so I don't want to play it again next league. (except for maybe leveling because ele hit leveling sucks).

    I tried Ele Hit this league with like a 8-10ex budget and it didnt feel good, being very squishy etc.

    Then I saw a version using wands, and also Mathil doing a barrage deadeye, which looked very interesting to me.

    But what is the big difference? I really love the gameplay of wanders, but seems like they suck on leaguestart. I think bow achieves more damage later but on this wand looks a bit easier early on.

    Elemental hit wander league start

    Posted: 30 Jun 2021 10:06 PM PDT

    Hi guys,

    I really like the barrage elemental hit wand deadeye build by Mathil last league. I would like to ask if I can league start with this build.

    As I usually only have time to play one or two build per league, I don't mind have a rough League start, just wonder if it would be possible or not.

    Thanks guys in advance.

    Struggling to do damage with Build - Bloodseeker Dual Strike Raider

    Posted: 30 Jun 2021 08:49 PM PDT

    Title basically explains it. I followed a build guide and have gotten to a point where I do not do enough damage, even to map bosses. My clear is alright, but could definitely be better.

    A few things I have in mind that could be hindering my damage - *Only level 81 *Do not have a way to generate rage so I cannot use berserk (although I cannot find the rage gen method in the build I'm following) *Don't have all of the jewels (Intuitive leap) *Unique items don't have corrupted implicits

    I am sure I could find a few more things, but I am still not understanding how these things will greatly increase my damage. Rage makes sense, and I CAN see it increasing my damage significantly, however, I do not see how adding 15% more attack speed (weapon corrupt) or another frenzy charge (glove corrupt) would increase my damage by such a large amount that it will make mapping tier 16s viable and maybe even a breeze.

    Champion / Slayer - Doomfletch split arrow help

    Posted: 30 Jun 2021 03:56 PM PDT

    Hi,

    I was thinking of starting as a champion doomfletch splitarrow, life stack with petrified blood + bloodthrist support, and later on switching to a slayer farruls.

    I need help with different kind of skilltrees though:

    I am not sure if Iron Grip is worth it or not - I will have around 200+ Str

    Thread of hope or Glorious Vanity - Glorious affects 5 KN

    Int leap or Glorious Vanity - Glorious affects 5 KN

    Basically just need help with tree optimization, I've got some examples in PoB below if you could tell me which one is better than the other.

    Best solo-capable minion/aurabot for league start?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2021 05:15 PM PDT

    I'd like to play a minion build with a heavy enough focus on auras to be able to act as a strong support for occasional party play. Anybody have any favorites? I'd like the character to have somewhat smooth progression through maps on a budget, if possible. I haven't played a minion build in years, and I really have no idea how to compare the various versions I'm seeing on the forums. It's hard to figure out what to sort by on poeninja.

    Looking for a bossing build in SSF that doesn't require much gear but can help me fully unlock all the passive points in the uncharted realms atlas tree.

    Help with health pool

    Posted: 30 Jun 2021 12:38 PM PDT

    Hello everyone, I just kind of on a whim started a skele mage necro and I really like it. My problem is the guide I was following didn't focus on the health much so now I'm hurting. I just finished campaign and I'm sitting at 2.7k. I would like to see how it does in the atlas but will dying too much with that hp.

    Can someone recommend a guide that may get me where I need to be health wise? I have another character that can do red maps so I was trying to hold off on spending what I do have on gear but it looks like I may have to. Are the hitpoints in the tree,jewels or gear? I realize it's all 3 but which would have the biggest impact?

    Tankiest Builds?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2021 08:45 AM PDT

    Next season I'm interested in tackling a different set of tasks - and specifically would like to hit level 100 (and maybe try some hardcore).

    What are the tankiest builds in the game - that never/rarely die even at the expense of speed/DPS?

    Looking for Arcanist Brand Build

    Posted: 30 Jun 2021 10:24 AM PDT

    Really want to try playing an arcanist brand build but the only recent resources i found were mathils reap arcanist brand and a forum guide for vd desacrate. Im ssf so mathils void battery approach aint gonna work for me and running 2 arcanist brands doesn't sound appealing for the vd build so if anyone has any recent clips,pobs or forum posts i would really appreciate them.

    Order of upgrades for VD CoC Build?

    Posted: 30 Jun 2021 10:00 AM PDT

    Here's the current state of things: https://pastebin.com/R9mvNSBt

    I have around 50-55ex on hand right now, but not sure what to really buy (or possibly craft). Ultimately (no pun intended) I want more survivability and a lot more damage.

    I could also just spend it on leveling to 97 to get Practiced Caster on my large cluster (and probably get a better cluster).

    Outside of that I'm not sure what would give me best bang for the buck. I would like to get to the magical number of 10M dps, better block chance and more life/ES of course, but not sure if that can be done on my budget.

    Starter Build for Deadeye Iceshot

    Posted: 30 Jun 2021 08:47 AM PDT

    Hey guys,

    I would like to play Deadeye Ice Shot next league, but need a Deadeye starter build to switch to Ice Shot later.

    As far as I know Deadeye Ice Shot is not really playable as a starter.

    Are there any good Deadeye starter builds?
