    Path of Exile Builds A use for ward in SC Trade

    Path of Exile Builds A use for ward in SC Trade


    A use for ward in SC Trade

    Posted: 12 Aug 2021 09:06 PM PDT

    This league I found myself with an intermediary chest piece between tabula and end game: skin of the loyal. SOTL is a decent damage boost for many gem level-scaling builds if you can find the right socket colors with useful +gems corruptions. Unfortunately, it has no life... but it does give 100% increases global defenses. Unfortunately I was using the Acrobatics keystone which hamstrings Armor and ES, so at first I went for some evasion but was annoyed with rolling the colors I needed on evasion bases. For a while I just settled for crafted life on most gear slots and accepted my 4K health pool. Then I realized: ward is only available on gloves, boots, helmets, and the iron flasks... SOTL is the only ward scaling chest slot available. I went ahead and got a 500 ward helmet and 250 ward gloves for 30c each and went about my day with 3700 life and 1500 ward instead of 4000 life. Things went well for a bit but I was getting killed when my ward was down. Enter: iron flask on savage hit. Now I have an automated flask that boosts my 1500 ward up to 2300 so I'm ready for another big hit right after the first.

    The boot slot is pressed for prefixes (movespeed) so there's a lot less room to negotiate ward into, but I think this might help some people.

    If you are on a dodge / evasion based character and happen to be using a SOTL... try this out. You still die every now and then but your health globe glows and you feel vv smart.

    Quick demo of my build - Strength Stacking Static Strike + BM Cry

    Posted: 12 Aug 2021 07:23 PM PDT

    Just some pretty invested Herald of Agony Raider Gameplay if anyone was considering playing the skill.

    https://streamable.com/hww0nu

    Video above is a T16 phoenix map, skipped the expedition so you didn't have to see me place barrels.

    Love this build, and I almost always dislike builds like this. The damage is nice, it's very consistent, it's relatively safe, and above all else it's comfortable. I value comfort over everything. The clear is also way way better than everyone said it would be when I mentioned building it. Not the fastest, but absolutely far from the slowest.

    Starting off with it (swapped from Helix around level 70 to HoAg) the damage was more than enough for early maps, all I really needed was some pure agony medium clusters.

    The investment path is very very straightforward, i.e upgrading to 7p voices for more pure agony, then getting 2 damage+reservation circles, then chest, blah blah.

    Highest end damage can come from around the 10ex investment, and every investment from then on works towards making the build more and more defensive/comfortable.

    Worth noting before I talk about spending on this build: 7p voices are 100% serviceable and you only lose like.. two 5% life nodes total by using 2x 7p instead of 2x 5p. The power gap between each 5p and 7p is a single point. Also a lion's share of the cost would come from empower 4, but 3 is cheap and also 100% serviceable.

    Excluding Empower 4 (lucky corrupt), overall I've spent roughly 20-25ex on all the gear, including 5p voices, and some of it is very specific with regards to a lucky glorious vanity. Maw of Conquest is what really strains the build's suffix requirements, but when you find yourself able to fit it in, it's such a lovely qol since you stop damaging yourself.

    POB: https://pastebin.com/Kx98SULX

    Note that 70 virulence is pretty consistent with lancing steel, so it's set like that in pob.

    Let me know if you want more info or have any suggestions.

    Crafting guide: Minion attack damage bow for Spectres, Reaper and other minions

    Posted: 13 Aug 2021 12:29 AM PDT

    Hello,

    I like crafting and noticed that the korean spectre build gained a fair bit of popularity (seen here: https://www.reddit.com/r/PathOfExileBuilds/comments/p1n7td/korean_spectre_guide_physical_impale_crit_aura/ ) and I figured I would post what I consider the best way to craft the weapon used in this build is. Note that on average this should be about half the price of buying a finished bow but RNG can be a cruel mistress. Decide for yourself what route you want to take.

    1. Get a shaper bow that is exactly Ilvl 83

    2. Alteration spam until you get "20% more attack damage" and empty suffix. You can annul here if you happen to hit it with a suffix

    3. Craft on "Cannot roll attack mods" (1 ex) on the magic item leaving it looking like this: https://i.imgur.com/NMmGNG5.png

    4. You need beasts for the next step. Buy at least 1 Craicic Chimeral (70c-0.7ex) and 1 Farric Wolf Alpha with maximum ilvl of 74

    5. The step here is that we imprint with the craicic chimeral (so that we can go back to the starting state if we fail) -> Regal orb. If you hit an undesired prefix on the regal, you have to annul it (weighting suggests you'll hit a suffix almost every time, though). Example regal that is fine: https://i.imgur.com/1NRcQVx.png

    6. At this stage we need to use at least 1 beast to try and get the +1 gems. It's about 26% chance to hit +1 gems from this stage so you might need to do this multiple times.

    7. Use "Add a prefix, remove a suffix" Via 'Farric Wolf Alpha'. Ensure the beast level is maximum level 74

    8. Now there's a couple of scenarios that play out: Result
      a. You remove 'cannot roll attack modifiers' and add something other than +1 gems It bricked and you need to use the imprint to go back to stage 4
      b. You remove 'stun duration' (whatever trash mod you roll) and add something other than +1 gems You can still salvage the craft by trying to annul the new prefix you added. If you successfully remove it, use another beast. 1/3 shot to hit the annul. If you remove 'more attack damage' go back to step 4
      c. You remove 'cannot roll attack modifiers' and add +1 gems Second best scenario, prefixes are done! If you want to add an aspect craft to the bow you will need to spend 2 exalts to craft 'prefixes cannot be changed' and use a scouring orb to get rid of the unwanted suffixes (in my case the 'stun duration'
      d. You remove 'stun duration' and add +1 gems Best case scenario, just remove the mastercraft and finish the bow with minion damage & minion attack speed after crafting 'can have 3 additional modifiers'
    9. Enjoy the bow, it should serve you greatly no matter what attack-based minion build you play. Example finished bow: https://i.imgur.com/C2hnOP0.png

    SSF BMC Hydrosphere Orb of Storms Inquis Theory

    Posted: 13 Aug 2021 01:28 AM PDT

    Hi favorite sub,

    I felt like Battlemage's cry looked really interesting so I deemed to create a build focussing on the spell part as I'm mostly SSF and it feels easier to scale.

    I came up with a barebone tree for a BMC Hydrosphere Inquis using Hydrosphere within BMC as well as self-cast Orb of Storms and Tempest Shield. We would make use of full Fanaticism lowering the already minor cast time of Tempest Shield. As we're also Battlemage and going for crit, we want a 1-handed weapon with as much EDps as possible as we ignore resistances with crits. Jewelled Foil for example, also helps with crit multi and decent attack speed. We easily cap crit with Righeous Providence.

    For clear, using Hydrosphere including its chain mechanics and lightning procs on orb of Storms with Fanaticism AoE up most of the time could be decent.

    I feel like the concept and damage numbers look pretty solid for literally no items and realistic config settings?

    My only issue for now is how I would properly scale defenses. Probably Glancing Blows? I guess the goal would be to go MOM EB and further invest into ES/Life? We could also trade warcry skillpoints for uniques like Redblade Banner, for example.

    What's your opinion on it?

    Eye of winter spellslinger.....Occultist or mathils Deadeye variant??

    Posted: 12 Aug 2021 10:33 PM PDT

    (But....spellslinger is dead...)...lol!

    Which do you all think is the superior version? I was leaning occultist, but just saw mathils deadeye variant and it looks promising as well, so I figured I'd ask here and hopefully get some feedback to help me decide. Thanks!!

    Reaper Problems

    Posted: 13 Aug 2021 04:30 AM PDT

    Hi all

    Im having fun using reaper and its preforming well however im running into a big issue with the build and im unsure how to solve it

    Currently my reaper is gem lvl 18 - i have plays to get +13 to levels via gear its on the checklist and im sure this will help the below issue

    However anytime i run into elemental damage the reaper just melts and dies. Bosses no problem - Phys mobs No problem. It seems to specifically be elemental damage

    Has anyone else experienced this problem? Cheers

    (Question) Can I/Should I trade Frost Auto Scout for SO? More under

    Posted: 12 Aug 2021 04:34 PM PDT

    YO peeps, so basically I am following Kay`s minion army build in SSF and was planning to respec into Pure Spectres later on, thing is, I still didnt drop some stuff, neither the Triad Grip which seems to be a must have for it, I am still having fun with my actual build, I feel strong, just got to yellow maps the damage is fine in a 5l with 3 spectres, I know it will start to not be when I get to red maps which will be soon.

    Here is my right now character PoB https://pastebin.com/7Nv9GAGU, I always loved necromancer in other games, but in Path of Exile this is the first time I am doing it, after years of playin it (friends always discouraged me and said that necro was boring in poe, turns out I enjoy it a lot) I like my setup so far, every ele res capped, chaos capped aswell, also using forbidden taste with use when you take a savage hit (it saves me so much and the degen is minimal because I got some regen and chaos capped).

    Okay yep the title question was supposed to be simple but the text got large what can I do. Going back to it, I dont know how to calculate minion DPS, should I trade to SO`s from FA-S even without things like Triad Grip? Thanks a lot in advance peeps, much love :3

    The masochistic wheel of misfortune. (aka me being an idiot)

    Posted: 13 Aug 2021 01:35 AM PDT

    Aloha redditors (and sorry mod team if this is an inappropriate or incorrectly flared post),

    I once again feel the itch to play PoE and have the free time doing so. And since I don't really give a damn about trade, I am probably going to play ssfsc (honestly don't get the vegan meme so if anyone is willing to explain that to me, you are more than welcome) . It is pretty late-ish to the party and some of the new skills seemingly have been explored a bit (some more than others) and judging from what I've read about the build diversity, there seemed to some shifts in "viability" here and there.

    So with all that in mind, I am going to do the stupid thing, and make a wheel of misfortune for myself, 'cause I am an indecisive masochistic individual, who farms for onigoroshi just for random shits and giggles, and the sarcastic voicelines.

    Therefore please bombard me with build ideas/concepts, memes, unviable ssf builds, meta contenders, ultimate bravery levels of weirdness, walking simulators, etc. I don't care I just want to have some stupid fun with the game. And randomly deciding a build for each character I start from a pool of nonsense, sounds just right up my alley.

    Thanks for reading this gibberish and for the builds I may get in the comments. (Again if this goes against any reddit post rules in this sub, I will take this down)

    Have a nice day folks, as I willing give my sanity away so you can stay sane exiles. :)

    Looking for a tanky build that is good at bossing and decent at mapping

    Posted: 13 Aug 2021 01:30 AM PDT

    Preferably max block glad with heal on block since that is usually the defensive mechanic that feels the best to me, because it's braindead.

    I don't need zoom zoom mapping, I don't mind going a bit slower, as long as it's not too clunky, but I don't wanna die. I would take 3 mill dps over 10 mill dps if it means I can facetank a few attacks from bosses and go through juicier maps a bit more mindless.

    Budget as low as possible but I could probably get like 30+ ex if I sold all my stuff. Bonus points if it's some off meta hipster build that is actually smooth

    Build help for HoT autobomber (plenty of specific questions)

    Posted: 12 Aug 2021 09:12 PM PDT

    continuing from an older post

    Current POB

    Where can I go next towards pushing the build? I'm currently filling out my atlas and struggling a bit around t12 maps due to dying (rhoas, goats, and one-shots) or not dealing enough damage for the first explosion. I had a few questions and I wanted to discuss a bit as I don't know any knowledgeable people on how to push a build like this.

    -I could use more life/ES. This could potentially give me more time to react to big damaging hits. I'm hurting for dex and resists if I swap out my gear, however.

    -I could get a better amulet. +1 lightning/int would be min-max, but having either one would be good as well. See above point about starving for stats.

    -I can look into a better pair of boots. I could also look into doing something with the helmet, but it seems to be in a good spot.

    -Should I invest into a better staff? I'm somewhat interested in a caster bow setup as I see some poe.ninja builds using them; having a quiver for more stats would be awesome. I'm pretty sure its out of my budget and I have no clue how to craft a better staff/caster bow either way.

    -Don't know about the double large cluster setup. I'm more concerned about my small cluster/normal jewel setup. I could go into more life clusters or just look for basic jewels with lightning damage/life on them instead.

    -Not too confident about the flask setup. I have a jewel that gives me corrupt immunity, so I can consider rolling for a better life flask. Atziri's Promise has been strictly "okay" at best, so I was wondering if I should invest into another utility flask. Perhaps Vessel of Vinktar?

    -On that note, if I did go into Vessel of Vinktar, I could probably swap out my belt for a Stygian Vise.

    EDIT: Are golems worth going into? Can I stack golem buff effects?

    Any input into this would be greatly appreciated.

    Penance brand solo

    Posted: 12 Aug 2021 06:50 PM PDT

    Hello everyone.

    I got lucky and landed on a card that gave me 10 exalts. I would like to play a penance brand build. For me it's the most satisfying skill in the game, also doesn't clutter the screen too much. But I was never able to make a character that got anywhere with it.

    I play on trade soft-core but I play only solo. I know most go assassin and play with aura bot but that's not for me.

    So what are my options? Inquisitor, I don't like how he is this patch but has nice starting spot. Hierophant, going archmage with lots of mana can give me some good damage and defence. Also has that brand node but not sure about it. Then there is trickster, going with eternity shroud. He has a lot of cast speed too and ok defense. Maybe ignite elementalist but not a fan of igniting

    Any other ideas. Doesn't have to be like super amazing build but something that works solo. I am leaning on trickster or hierophant.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you exiles.

    Sharing my build: SST cold Ascendant

    Posted: 12 Aug 2021 04:53 PM PDT

    I know there are a lot of SST build out there but I tried a different take on it with Ascendant. I'm also not crit so it is cheaper than the poe.ninja Raiders.

    https://pastebin.com/bHmyQWg8

    poe.ninja link is still up but not for long I reckon: https://poe.ninja/challenge/builds/char/bkn/ShieldMetaKEKW

    I did Ascendant because of the following reasons: block, blind on hit (Gladiator), Tailwind, increased effect of Marks (Deadeye)

    The main problem for SST is single target, specially when you don't have frenzy charges & onslaught up. So that's why I squeezed those jewels with attack speed. They're currently 5 to 10c each.

    Map clear is amazing, but things like Expeditions might overwhelm you a bit, so you need clever usage of Sniper's Mark.

    The most expensive piece of gear is obviously the chest. I bought it for 5ex but it's only a 200k DPS increase. The shield is also somewhat expensive but I hit the jackpot on my first Dense fossil.

    The build could for sure hit a lot more DPS on the crit version, but I don't really am that good of a currency farmer to make the switch.

    As a last note, I absolutely love the combo Vitality Void + Vaal Pact. It is a lot of sustain for relatively cheap points on the tree compared to other methods, and it really carries the build.

    Posted: 12 Aug 2021 04:47 PM PDT

    So i'm looking for a build thats primarily focused on clear but that can do well on bossing if required, after some thinking I remembered the bleed bow gladiator build I've played in 3.12 and 3.13 that was a really comfy all rounder type of build. Were the damage nerfs of 3.15 too harsh on it? will I die a lot due to ailment/curse stuff? any guide you would suggest thats not from esoro?
