If you are looking for a mageblood version, I recommend checking www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/RueRue/characters?characterName=WideTimersAreFreaks (Ruetoo's SC build) or www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Darkee/characters?characterName=HE_WHO_IS_BLA (Ben's build in HC)
Ty for the build, easily one of the smoothest leaguestarts I've ever played. Damage comes for absolute free, red maps the only barrier I faced was -54 chaos res but that's me and my gear issue.
Thank you so much for the build. Having a blast. One suggestion sometimes you talk super fast when explaining thing and I can’t understand what your saying. You said you took out one jewel for a different jewel because something… but I couldn’t hear what jewel was taken out, what it was replaced with or why. I’m new so sometimes you’ll mention an item or a mechanic super quickly I think with the assumption that most people know what it is. And I’m sure that’s probably true. But as a knew player most of this stuff I’ve never heard of. Just a suggestion. Thank you for all your hard work. Loving the build so far.
Man this is way more in depth than my build is now and I’m still cruising. Im still playing the starter version with no issues . I can’t imagine how good this must be fully upgraded
Yea it’s my favorite build that I’ve played . Also my favorite guide I’ve ever followed, so thanks a ton for all of the work you put into it . VERY noob friendly .
Another thing about Dans setup I found interesting is that his buff duration of Enduring Cry matches the cooldown exactly (he has it linked with Inc Duration). 100% uptime on the regen buff from Enduring for a huge chunk of regen. Edit: oops, the only 100% uptime buff is 6% dr / 6% all res for this, the regen is unscaleable
Dd of chain reaction can consume 8 corpses per cast and desecrate spawns 5 corpses per cast. Using arcanist brand you can blow up more corpses since normally you consume more than you spawn
Hey @Ventrua. Thanks so much for so much in-depth help on this. I've learnt a ton. You may have discussed this in another place but how did you sort the socket colours on the chest? spam 3 green in craft?
I have one question, is Adorned really needed for this build, or will it be gimped without? I have around 16~ div to spend and was wondering if the build will be capable of doing t16s and all invitations with that budget, maybe even t17s?
Excellent build. However I did RIP my character to a simple frost bearer pack, got insta popped with ~48000 ele max hit on a blue T16 map. Maybe it was unfortunate luck they were stacked in a tight corner in Toxic sewer map.
@adriannB it should if the configuration is setup right, I was looking at this the other day and was wondering why I was so far off 100%. It looks like the brittle adds 3 to the base crit calculation and from what I remember was adding almost 20%
Thanks for the build update! I looked at Ruetoos version and i am wondering how did he craft his weapon? And why does he have adde fire and cold dmg on his amethyst ring? And since he is using purity of elements i assume he is using brine king pantheon for the stun recovery?
anyone knows what spectre and how many spectres did he use in desecrate pool? I read the pob but still a little confused cuz according to the guide, this build needs a lot of spectres and I don't even know how to get 3/4 of them
I made a full video on the whole spectre thing since a lot of people had similar questions ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DFs0kqbA6f4.html&lc=Ugx71V93EBzv-9Gz2ht4AaABAg
x8-10 +5% Reduced Extra Damage from Critical Strikes Tattoos and a Watcher's Eye with Reduced Extra Damage from Critical Strikes while affected by Determination gets us to an easy 100% Crit Reduction
if you decide to make a shield u can buy +2 all max frac shield (or make 1 with league) and use chaos fossils for +3 chaos max, its not that bad.thats how i made it at least, u can also use the league to craft it straight up. or maybe there are other ways too
Yeah it's not too bad, problem is to hit phys damage reduction on top, it's pretty expensive/difficult. That's why Ventrua went for the shield that he did.
I notice that you drop the energy shield leech small node towards the top of the tree, are you getting leech elsewhere or did you just decide it wasn't needed?
@@Ventrua Thanks Ventrua ! Another question came to my mind as I have plans for 2 cluster instead of one, I could then just drop the Throatseeker-wheel to fix that, but I will loose out on "50% increased Effect of non-Damaging Ailments you inflict with Critical Strikes", how much/important is this? (Pob dosent work for that).
@@Ventrua thanks for the reply. The problem is with that cold damage on foil, pob says I cannot apply chill because the cold damage is not being reflected in DD damage. If I put cold damage on my ring, pob says DD has cold damage and I can chill. Maybe something wrong with pob?
Hello mate!!I have seen this also in some maps and i ask guys and some told me that is causing from the mod in maps of reduced area of effect.have you made any research??
Can someone tell me if i am the only one who has troubles with pob? If i take his pob and switch items. The helmet three dragons for example. The damage numbers do not change. Even tough he mentioned three dragons is a big thing where the damage comes from but in pob somethings strange. Even for yoke its the same. Nothing changes really when i take it on or off
Hey dude, first , awesome job with the build / guide ... i'd just wanna ask if you think about rerolling, would you sell the crafter gear for a fair / even high amount of divs ?:)) even tho it sounds stupid, i lack knowledge about crafting and it kinda prohibits me from playing certain builds that require it
odd question, but how is he reaching 100% chance to hit in reference to the POB? im sitting at 68% with 925 increased accuracy rating which is more than his 510.
Thats the only thing I struggle with after getting reflect immune. I use a energy shield on kill cinderswallow and despec MoM. Its not perfect but if you keep the pace up you can clear. And obviously reduced cdr is a rough mod. If you run the 0-80% more map mod keystone you will have a like 3 second cd on DD
I dropped a Mageblood this league, (first time ever having one) how bad is it not getting that belt mod on your belt? is there a way i can make up for it? currently lvl 93
If you want to use Awakened CoC with Mageblood you'll have to get to the 52% CDR cap by getting CDR on boots. They can roll on Crusader boots and one other type of influence (I think?). This is pretty annoying to craft and expensive but it's doable. It'll make getting both spell supress and CDR on boots hard though.
Awakened coc lvl 5 with crit mastery that gives +3 crit gem levels, with cdr on influenced boots and extra % on abyss jewel should push you over the breakpoint.
i can not use haste with divine blessing when the auras are active: determination, grace, defiance banner, vitality. can someone help me fo find the answer? skill tree is the same he uses
High amount of str + int on inquis = high crit chance and you have crit strike support which boosts base crit (which makes % increases to crit even better)
Wand with crit roll, crit rate enchant for quality, inquisitor ascendancy (read it), crit flask with flask charges on crit auto trigger. This should net you around 95+ crit chance. Without the enchant on weapon with shit gear I had like 98.7 with power charges.
i just checked the pob. remved EVERY item besides the weapon and have 66% crit chance. you probably dont have increased critical strikes socketed. thats all.
Make sure you have power charges ticked on and that you have a diamond flask. Besides that, add brittle, pump strength (if int is higher). Add brittle ground implicit on boots, take more crit nodes (like the depth perception wheel), level and qual up all your relevant support gems (increased crit, cast on crit, assassin's mark and mark on hit). Make sure your foil has good crit chance on it, it should be cheap to craft/buy this league. I used the High Voltage passive when my gear was really bad, that's a nice crutch if you have no other options. Make sure you have "Hits can't be evaded" craft, if you're missing, your crit chance will suffer.
@@J1ggyPoo its the 2 stat weapon from the swap pob with nothing else equipped but yeah, the 2 big strength nodes. literally 0 investment. edit: ok my bad, i left the carnage heart equipped too
W/ mageblood, you need to craft CDR to boots… a lot of CDR. You’ll likely not hit the second break point of 10.10 without a minimum of 18 CDR AND using awakened CoC at rank 6 which goes up three levels to 9 from critical talent. I know this because it’s exactly what I had to do when I decided to go mageblood. Shit part was the rank6 awakened orb….nightmares
battered foil has such a low amount of phys that phys reflect shouldnt be an issue on decently high gear with plenty armour and es leech/life leech/vita watchers eye. The cold damage on foil makes it slightly harder for ele refl, but I tried to get as low cold dmg as possible and if you get one of the bottom tiers it is manageable.
@@Ventrua I got that part. I was curious what breakpoints u meant. I thought they were for Endurance cry (14%) but you make it sound like there is another breakpoint (52%) which would result in even more damage if you run awakend coc. Does it give it you more CoC procs, corpses or detonations?
@@k4zzaa this is the reason why not so knowledgeable people should first try to understand what they are supposed to play. cast on crit uses server ticks for proc rate as it has internal cd and you are trying to align your proc rate (icdr) to the server tick rate. First breakpoint is at 14% and second is at 52% (third one is at some nonsensical 100+ so you wont get there). This is also why in the notes (which you should have read before playing the build) ruetoo and ventrua keeps mentioning to always import the weapon into pob whenever crafting or buying a new one as to align the attacks per second with trigger rate. But seriously, you can find this info with legit 2 second google search (and I advise you to do so with anything, the people on reddit especially are much more knowledgeable than any content creator out there for literally anything, not only poe related). So in this case you have a question about cast on crit and breakpoints. So you enter that into google and you get amazing posts by people that literally included everything, even the sources of such cdr etc. So give those amazing people some credit and learn to first google the question, the world will open to you and you will find some amazing information.
I setup my character on PoB and it does 1,6 mil dps, I tried to mimic my character gear on your char PoB (took out everything I don't have) and It still does 15 million dps wth...
Ventrua, can u Tell me whats the defense layers of the build? I cant hear the video Because my phone sound not working and i am on seas for a few days.
Hey, thanks for the guide and updates, really love playing this build ! I'm having a hard time comparing my progress toward your final dps because when I import my character, PoB doesn't calculate that lancing steel has multiple projectiles, how did you manage to have that in your PoB? (it's in Attack/Cast Rate in calcs, Eff. Source Rate, yours have x11 from projectiles, mine have nothing...) Thanks again !
thanks for your guide! never had such a strong leaguestarter. currently blasting t16 juiced maps and its such a joy just pressing one button and everything just evaporates. one question i have though: i'm 94 and haven't swtiched to vitality yet because without precision aura i am at 84% chance to hit. comparing our POB's i have way higher accuracy rating than you. how did you cap your hit chance without precison aura?
There is a video on the channel that tells you how to craft your weapon with the new mechanic, it's very cheap, has high chance of success and the only annoying thing is getting the corpses if you need to buy a lot of them, you also don't need 83+ corpses for it, 77+ will be fine so you can mix some of the ones you have with the ones you buy. The weapon has a craft "HITS CAN'T BE EVADED" that you add to it so you can dump the acc nodes on the tree and precision.
@@azalel123 thanks for your answer! i have seen the video but did not realize that the mod allowed us to cap hit. i thought it was just so we can hit evasive enemies. cheers for that!
We can, I recommend checking out www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/RueRue/characters?characterName=WideTimersAreFreaks (Ruetoo's SC build) or www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Darkee/characters?characterName=HE_WHO_IS_BLA (Ben's build in HC) for mageblood versions
What would you say is the threshold i have to cross to be able to farm 17's on this build? I'm trying and I just die. Dunno if im rolling the maps wrong, if I just suck or don't have the gear yet
@@Ventrua I think i have pretty much everything except the watcher's eye and cast on critical (still on 14% cdr) I also didn't know the fights, it's getting better now
