Currently no, but I'd like to do this process in PoB with exact numbers and if something crucial is missing / needs fixing then I can find a solution for it. In PoB it doesn't work because the supports put in with Herald of Ice/Thunder aren't active (like minion damage cannot support HoI). But Herald of Agony with the links in the guide will reserve 77% mana on its own. There's no way to fit Herald of Purity IMO. GMP is a 165% mana modifier which hurts, I'm thinking of maybe switching it to Minion Speed or maybe even Pierce. Hard to tell if there are cooldowns on the skills where too much speed would be bad (the puddle definitely does, not sure about the split arrow attack though, since the crawler does have a melee attack for default so even split arrow could have a cooldown). I'm disapointed on the poison chaining of Pathfinder. It seems it transfer 1 poison stack only which is fairly useless considering poisons are built around quick stacks. The clear with VS+Melee Splash will definitely be below average. I'm always slow so I don't mind but this won't be anywhere near the Reave clear speed of your other build.

I didn't make this build with poison prolif in mind - the free increased AOE, +3 range and Melee Splash is more than enough to give Viper a very good clear, if it's needed for clear. My Reave is max speed and range so I'm not expecting anything like that from any build (: Uploaded an awesome Exsanguinate Freeze Explosion build on the forums - https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3508506	Posted by Kiss_Me_Quick on Aug 31, 2018, 10:00:55 AM Quote this Post
Oh my disappointment wasn't with your build. That was per my expectation of the wording and the possibilities it would bring for clear. Imagine there's 20 monsters around, you focus the rare and get some good stacks on it, then it dies and everything around just chain dies. Honestly Contagion-ED remains one of my most satisfying trash clear ever. It's just so cool to target one monster and then everything in the room dies. I was hoping to get a mini version of this when I read the passive.	Posted by Namcap on Aug 31, 2018, 10:06:03 AM Quote this Post
In the gear section you are showing 2 unset rings. Are there skill gems that you intend for those rings or did you just pick them because they show the preferred stats?	Posted by Basett on Aug 31, 2018, 10:10:54 AM Quote this Post

Just stats really, but Unset would be best to do things like putting Blood Rage in it and replacing it in Boots with Efficacy for even longer Vaal skills duration.

PoB was just updated to 3.4, so i guess most of the questions will be cleared out in the guide :)	Posted by spam4o on Aug 31, 2018, 10:48:28 AM Quote this Post
