[3.12] KissMeQuick's Gladiator Reave: REBORN — T19 100% Maps & A8 Sirus Deathless — Starter friendly

OK, back once more. I've gotten to 680k DPS (flasks up in PoB), and once I finish levelling my gems (I 20%'d them recently), I expect to hit 750k DPS. I'm trying to figure out where I'm missing the most DPS. I'm not sure if it's my neck (missing phys -> element conversions, but has other good stats and is self-found), or my gloves (fairly close to having enough orbs to pull the trigger on picking up a 2-socket tombfist, using spiked for now), or just death of DPS by a thousand cuts. I started from a diff reave build, and switched to this one, and I've been through a couple rounds or rejiggering my character to more closely hew to this guide... and each time I've gone through that, it's come out better. At this point, I'm pretty closely aligned with this build, but I'm not quite there on the DPS side of things.

I've installed poe.trade item copy script so I can plug items from poe.trade into path of building (https://github.com/fikal/PoeTradeItemCopy), and just nothing seems to be that big a DPS gain, unless it's 15-20 exalts. I feel like I should be able to at least cross 1M DPS without needing 20 exalt items, but I'm having a hard time finding my way there.

You can check my profile (character Bulligerent), or here's my PoB pastebin: https://pastebin.com/M0uh4Pmp

By the way,

If I craft suffixes cannot be changed on this, than have a 50/50 chance to annul the lightningdamage, than multimod critchance on it, would it be enough for endgame weapon?

Suffixes alone are never worth multicrafting on a weapon. Even with top T1 rolls. Your current weapon is at it's crafting limits, you can only improve the % phys.
Also multicraft is a suffix mod, so you can always have only 2 suffixes.

Changing all your jewels to this one which is ~25C + grabbing another jewel slot within 2 points takes you from 720K to 830K



Adding taste of hate takes it to 900K

Two ~30C rings takes you to 955K




Replacing your current Spiked Gloves with 2C Spiked Gloves takes you to 1000K




Also your blade has the lowest craft. Getting max craft will add another 20K.

Now:

@kissmequick-

Man, thank you. You're a gentleman and a scholar.

I've pumped up my gems, replaced my gloves, rerolled the dmg on my sword, and I'll look at rings shortly. I'm already ~100K dps higher. Have to decide between another gem next level, or the last 3 points of sword DPS in 2 levels, but that's a simple PoB look. A big(ish) DPS gain was to put onslaught in my belt abyssal and put a gem like you suggested in my tree.

I think the big change will be picking up taste of hate, but that's a couple ex, so we'll see when my currency supports that.

Ruthless is in the mix already, it seems like my POB has too many skills clustered that it confuses players. I'll try to clean things up!
Hypothermia doesn't work at all or barely have impact on bosses making it useless. Not to mention it gives 9% damage increase at best which can be achieved by switching out critical strikes.

There are some players who do play it in HC right now, feel free to surf through the pages here and see what their advice and opinions are.

Freeze dont work, but chill bonus damage do..
9%? Hmm, i tried to switch increased crit with Hypothermia in ur PoB build and it gives like 2-3x more damage than inc crit

I assume you had such an increase because you didn't have chilled enabled without hypothermia. We get that effect from hatred already.
If you have faith in your idea, I highly encourage you to try it. I may very well be wrong as well!

Dunno if we're talking about the same things..i just disabled Inc crit, that gives like 320k DPS and added Hypo, that gives like 600k (with chilled configuration enabled)...

I took first Reave in ur PoB for it
