Hi guys, perhpas my first post since i play poe. I come here to give my feedback on this 3.6 updated build and helps some news players who struggle a bit.
The leveling was a bit harsh withtout any decoy totem and CwDT in the build. Died a bit too much vs boss act 6 and more, however Enki did well to updated this leveling section, adding some defensive spell, who works very well. I see a lot of post complaining about the talent "EB", well you are right, this one is a bit "useless" without a decent amount of ES BUT after this its like the last season : with 1k ES + MOM its works fine. A tips : Hearthbreaker HELPS A LOT to sustain your ES when you dont any source of sustain and its a cheap weapons until your next craft/buy. Just play safe during leveling, you can all in when upgrade your stuff for mapping. Just a fact, you dont need to follow this build 100%. You can do some variations if you are not agree with him. For my case, i dont play with WB because with a perma 100% proc ONSLAUGHT + the speed potion, i one tap everything and move on so fast. Perhpas for me its the first build, right now i could tell, i can do the late game. HUGE burst with the trap, a perma ONSLAUGHT (MOVE FAST). Last things : the very late build seems to be very expensive right now : Inpulsa around 3ex, The Devouring Diadem seems to be too op for our build but its cost around 20ex in standard and it only drop on Catarina (RIP Syndicat). When you get a decent stuff this build is god : Safe, HUGE DAMAGE INPUT, and clear speed. Ha yeah, last things : if you dont want to play with WB dont take only dagger in weapons : hard to found decent dagger SPELL DAMAGE and you can have much better if you take a wand with a small amount of currency. Here my stuff : (my weapons are like : 8 chaos ; chest 55 chaos ; Atziri : 10c ; boots : 7c and the rest is about 10c ) Edit : currently on mapping : T8-T9 and no issues (just be careful when you took the portal to the memories, can be awfull to pop in the middle on an army) Edit 2 : if you need a specific ITEM but you dont have too much currency, you can "ACTIVATE LIVE SEARCH" in POE Trade, choose your maximum "Buyout Price" and wait an item with your options. Can be long but rewarding if you are not in the RUSH to buy. Last edited by Hermesse on Mar 13, 2019, 4:16:26 PM

What does the "Skill effect duration 10-10-25%" do morethan incease how long the mobs are shocked/frozen/ignited? Or is that it? If so, why prio that over the Effect, duration and lightning damage nodes? Or even more jewels for that matter? Is it really huge for us?=)

"You can do what you like. However, CWDT will not trigger Onslaught. It can trigger a supported skill linked to Onslaught, but you would still have to kills or hit a rare/unique in order to gain the buff. Example: CWDT + Storm Brand + Onslaught. CWDT would trigger Storm Brand, and Storm Brand has the ability to proc Onslaught. "Skill Effect Duration does not affect the duration of ailments (shock, freeze, etc). It will increase the duration of Storm Brand, Lightning Spire, Fortify, Immortal Call (if taken), Vaal Grace, and any other skill gems with “duration” written at the top. "Don’t focus so much on level but on when your ES reaches a minimum of 30% your life pool. Ideally you want 43%, but it will function well with less. Too little and you’ll constantly be oom.

@thepotatocannon
The old upgrade order was outdated, I will eventually work on a new one but it shouldn't really be needed yet.
@Sarwar94
The nodes give lots of damage, 1% life regen and tankiness for our golem. Bone Helmets aren't the sole reason we take Spiritual Aid for.
@ocombe
Would be interesting to see, based on the reoccuring ES Arc build question I can tell the demand for such a guide is there.
@Piesak12
You need all reduced Mana reservation nodes first before you can run all three. I've since updated the Leveling Section with using Herald of Thunder inplace of Wrath until that point.
@fsxraptor
They mean under which conditions that affix can appear on the item. It's explained at the top of Gear Section.
@JohnnyFive
Yeah that still applies. You will miss out on an important flask suffix, and the Zealot's Oath uptime may also not be enough while tied to a flask.
@subcutan
No one ever said the old version isn't playable anymore.
One of the main complaints about it was the high initial investment at the start of a league to make it work properly, mainly coming from Leech Watcher's, Clear Mind and Essence Worm. So i've worked on a version that doesn't need that and still has a similar effective hitpool and damage. It does need Life + ES hybrid gear, but that's fairly easy to get with benchcraft refinement if you put some thought to it.
@Singulare
That's the correct socket.
@Asherak
Inpulsa is still worth aiming for, but that is certainly a good start.
@T0mBombad1l
I've included multimodded Daggers and Tiger Hooks in the PoB-setup, so you can just easily compare them there. One thing to keep in mind is that Tiger Hooks have fairly low base attack speed, so they're noticable slower than f.e. a crafted Ambusher.
@Raschas & @kyr83
Yeah I start to like how Unleash feels. We usually get to build up all 3 seals until the next pack, which gives us five Arcs with a single skill use and produces lots of chains. Feels pretty great when you don't have an Inpulsa's yet. It's also good for bosses where we need to move anyway, we only really lose out on bosses that just let us continously cast Arc.
@MKU_Nirvana
The biggest difference comes from that your PoB configurations were set up differently. With the former you have 405k Shaper DPS, the latter has 209k without taking Unleash into account. You can easily replace the mana flask for a DPS flask and the mana nodes behind MoM aren't needed with the new setup aswell.
Overall the new setup does have a bit less Arc damage, but Lightning Spire Trap more than makes up for that.
@tyrusxl
Boots and a 6L chest, also Transcendent Mind if you don't have it yet.
@amrache
Depend how far you're into gearing the Standard character. New version requires a different focus on gear so you'd probably have to replace a lot, but it also doesn't require any of the (probably not in Standard League) pricier uniques to make it work smoothly.
@woefulwabbit
Dagger, costs 100 chroms with the crafting bench. Alternatively Bone Helmet if you have one, it's Str + Int base so getting reds is easy.
@protestantfackbucket
I just alch each map and fullclear. I have a mapping guide linked in the respective section, reading that may clear up some things.
@fichi
Your character tab is private so I can't check what may be the cause of your issue. The 613 ES certainly is an issue, you want at the very least 1k in maps and take Mind over Matter. Flasks are also very important, make sure you have the right bases and properly crafted. I can just facetank Fungal Hollow boss with my SSF Synthesis character even with bad mapmods, so fixing those two things should get you into the right direction.
@eternity5575
What's your total ES at? Would be interesting to be able to figure out a breaking point until which ZO is still needed.
@ButcherLTh
At this point, just put your auras and Lightning Golem in there. Once you switch to the mapping gem setup you can easily chrom them for the listed 3L gem setups, if you wish to use the CwDt + IC 3L and don't want to get 3 reds on a Heartbreaker, you could just wait until Lv73, get a Bone Helmet and put it in there with one of the auras, and the other auras into your dagger.

"Ive looked into full ES Occultist, and it indeed looks like it would be very potent, but I doubt it would be prudent for this league. You did an excellent job at creating a low budget league starter. Inpulsa’s is expensive, yes, but not required, and full ES would require a Watcher’s Eye, though it’s possible Warlord’s Mark would be sufficient. I do, however, think there is room for a full hybrid if we scale enough ES to make MoM wasted. Get the old Watcher’s Eye, drop MoM and EB, reserve enough to keep Arc going, swap ES Leech for AS, and the overall performance would be stronger..just heavy investment. There may even be a possibility of using Soul Tether and keeping ES Leech. I also finally understand how this whole leeching thing with Ghost Reaver works if others still don’t know. Default allows for 20% life, 20% mana, and 10% ES to be leeched. GR doubles the ES leech and converts all sources of life leech to ES leech but does not increase the ES leech beyond the double.

" My ES for now with a Tabula would be around 1.1k, with a 5l budget chest would be 1.5k. I'll stick with Tabula until i can grab an Inpulsa, I love the effect Hypothermia gem provide during bossfight. |
