Unless you can craft bis claw with vagan hit can't be evaded, then lyco will be it.

Lyco is it, 4 exalts is not that hard to get I promise.

Even forgetting the cost it would take and how impossible it would be to craft an end game vagan claw.... I still don't think it would end up being worth it. You would lose a huge amount of EDPS because hit's can't be evaded is a prefix. This means at best you would get a dual ele claw. Now if we could get some GG shield that would replace it and make up the difference maybe but none really exist.

Anyway just my .02 in thinking if it ever did happen, regardless lyco is pretty much it :)
Hi Goof,

I msg'd you ingame (sorry about that) and you told me to leave a forum post regarding my toon, and perhaps you would have a moment to look at it.

This is my very first PoE char, and I decided to follow your guide as it seemed very well written (and im really enjoying it so far), but i've come to a point where im sure something is very very wrong.

When I mouse over my spectral throw, it tells me I have 14.7k dps. That is in hideout, without frenzy charges, and WITH herald of ice / wrath on + lightning golem.
As you mentioned in game, that is disgustingly low.

I also feel like im having mana issues, since I hear the "out of mana" message very often, and I can see that im not casting spectral throw 100% of the time, due to missing mana.

My life is currently at 4.7k (not really sure if its good or not).

I've tried my best to follow your gear & stat break down, to get the best pieces.
Passive skill tree wise, I have followed it completely except that I've put 1 point into a +30 intelligence node.

I've saved up some chaos orbs, in hope of sometime being able to buy lycosidae, but im more than willing to spend them all on correcting my current issue.

I hope you're able to help or atleast assist me a little bit, as I really wish to get this character to work out.
Once again, sorry for bothering you in-game.

Kind regards,
Zaicoo
You're doing a crime against yourself by not using abyssal jewels in your build. You've taken (as far as I can tell) no jewel sockets in your tree. The damage increase they give you is absurd, and fairly cheap until you start going for tri-damage/life.

Get primal spirit, it'll help with mana issues, and gives int anyway.

You also overwrote your gripped gloves implicit...not smart.

left ring is phys damage...does nothing

Goofy - I'm curious as I recently heard that dual-ele + elemental damage prefixes outdo tri-ele. Unable to test for this build as I'm off from it, but figured i'd bring it up. I tested for my own build and the damage increase was large

Hi Slottm,
Thanks for replying.

I do have a jewel - not an abyss tho, but a "Viridan Jewel" which gives:
7% Atk speed with claws
6% Increased max life
10% increased projectile dmg.


Primal Spirit sounds like a decent solution to my mana issues, agreed.


Yeah I used an enchant on my gripped gloves - didn't know that it would remove the increased projectile dmg..

First let me start by saying as I did in game welcome to POE. I am glad to hear that you are enjoying the game and my build. Trust me when I say.... this game is super addicting and loads and loads of fun.

Next let me start by saying you should read the full guide, every step, every section every detail and read it or check it as many times as needed. For example one of your issues with mana is that you still don't have the primal spirit keystone on the tree. This gives you a ton of extra mana and really helps out with mana issues. This is also covered in the guide under the FAQ section of "Why do I always run out of mana".

So my first piece of advice to you is to read the guide, the faq, every section as it will be very beneficial to you.

Now lets get into your character....

Your passive tree looks pretty good, you obviously need some nodes still and a few more levels. You also need to do your uber lab (or get an uber lab carry) because those last 2 points are amazing in terms of immune to status ailments, more movespeed, more spell dodge, and a huge chunk of damage.

Next would be your gear. So lets go through it.

- You have no lyco shield. Yes it can be very expensive this league, and seeing as you are a brand new player farming currency may be a bit tough for you. However this is the first unique I would really work on. Having 100% chance to hit is just to good.

- Your claw is very very low dps wise and overall is not that good at all. 8 to 13 cold damage is almost non existent. Your total EDPS on the claw is literally 180. I would find a claw that has 1.9+ APS on it and 250+ EDPS as a STARTER claw and then go from there, they get a lot better and a lot higher, but cost infinitely more.

- Rat's nest and belly are good. Im amazed you have a 6l belly but not a lyco. Your belt is also very good and much better than expected. Boots are not to awful to start either.

- Your gloves, your rings, and your amulet are all pretty bad. Amulet at least has sorta decent EDWA and life on it. Really need to work on upgrading those.

- Your gems are all over the place in levels. No quality on any of them yet and range from level 16 to level 19.

- You have no vinktar at all yet.

- No helm enchant

As for your mana issues the mana leech you get from soul raker is a percent of the damage you deal. Meaning as low as your damage is you are not leeching a huge amount from it. That coupled with the fact that you have not taken primal spirit yet (as I stated earlier) means that you have little mana with little mana leech.


So your steps would be as follows and probably in this order:

- Get an uber lab carry for your remaining ascendancies
- Get primal spirit as soon as possible on tree
- Buy a new claw with 250+ EDPS and 1.9 + aps
- Buy a lyco
- Level up your gems and flip them with the recipe to get quality on them or buy 20/20 gems already for at least spectral throw and the supports.
- Upgrade your gloves + rings for sure
- Finish up some skills on tree, your missing a couple easy jewel sockets and heartseeker +30 crit multi node
- Abyssal jewels with life + 2 ele mods will be better than any regular jewel you can get this league. Feel free to check mine out in my profile
- Get vessel of vinktar (flat damage to attacks)
- Take a look at your gems and fix them in other gear slots, for example you have none in your shield at all, in your claw you have vaal haste linked with increased duration and then herald of ice in there as well. So you need your herald of ice curse on hit setup.

Hey there, Not Goof obviously but I took a look at your gear and have a few notes.

Claw- Pretty underwhelming. It's only about 180 edps which is 100 less than a somewhat budget claw should be (about 1-2ex). If you are familiar with poe trade try searching for something with over 1.9 attacks per second, some crit and at least 250edps to start. The higher the better for all of these of course, but they get expensive quick.

Shield - You need to just get lyco which you already said you were working toward.

Rings - Big issue here. You have diamond bases which is nice but one has no elemental damage with attacks and the other one has only 12 (and has no resists). Diamond bases are nice but until you can afford gg rings you can probably look for another base and focus on 20+ elemental damage with attacks, life and res to start. Lightning damage added to attacks is nice as well, and is a craftable prefix if there is room.

Amulet - This one is a bit better than the rings. Looks like you are solving your stat issue here which is fine, a great amount of life and some ele damage. Ideally you would have crit multi and maybe even crit chance but that bumps up the price a lot. If you want to replace it in the near future at least look for Crit multi on there in addition to some life and ele damage.

Gloves - Gloves can be replaced pretty easily. You can get attack speed crafted from Haku at a higher value than that, so something with decent life, dual res and open suffix for Attack speed craft isnt THAT expensive.

Boots - They are pretty decent. Anything much better is going to cost you quite a bit.

Belt- Wish it had elemental damage on it, but good enough for now.


As someone else said, grab jewel sockets asap and get at least decent abyss jewels in there. You can find some without life for like 1-5c each that will give you a massive amount of damage.

Tri ele beats dual ele + EDWA roll on claw. However you have to take into consideration what tier roll this is. For example if you get like 35% EDWA that is a prty high roll, if your fire damage is only like 30-60 or something its a mid roll at best so EDWA will beat it out.

I won't say that EDWA is not a good roll and probably a lot cheaper, but tri ele will still beat it out.
