Help me do damage. PP Zerphi pathfinder IIQ
|
Just wondering if anyone can see some obvious tweaks that can boost my damage. Fairly new to this build any advice appreciated.
char "PerfectFlask" Cooldown recovery belt? Certain item or nodes I overlooked? Eventually I'll grab a kaoms chest but till then figured I could level some gems in Diallas :p Is avatar of fire necessary? or do people just use xoph ammy for covered in ash Currently 4.8k life, using anger and herald of ash. dps feels poo thanks Last edited by spluhvag on Sep 11, 2018, 9:40:32 AM Last bumped on Sep 14, 2018, 11:00:41 AM

I say this in a loving way, everything about your build is terrible.
First off, when people talk about Zerphi's PP they are not talking about the flask, they are talking about the amulet. https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Zerphi%27s_Heart The flask does nothing for your damage. Second, your tree is real bad and needs to be completely redone. Avatar of fire does nothing for you since Volatile Dead is already 100% fire. Here is a much better tree I made for you. Volatile Dead Pathfinder PP Third, replaced the Zerphi's flask with an Atziri's Promise or a Diamond Flask. Also maybe a life flask if you need it. Divination Distillate is going to be hard to keep up since you dont spend much mana. Lastly, Ranger is a bad choice for Poet's Pen, the ascendancies don't offer it much. If you decide to reroll I recommend Elementalist, Inquisitor, or Trickster. Good luck Edit: almost forgot, you need to re-chrome your main Poet's Pen, gem order does matter. It need to go from top-to-bottom Unearth->GMP->Bodyswap. Order doesn't matter on the Poet's Pen that has your VD. I love this game but I'm not so sure about the people who play it.

I know about the zerphi ammy, however I simply want to do a IIQ build that can do t16 ugs, and perhaps guardian bosses using zerphis flask for sustain. I'm just trying to sort out how I can boost my dmg without dropping iiq gear.
The tree you linked is a bit different, crit instead of ele overload. That setup would yield some more damage for sure, but at the sacrifice of quite a bit of life. My goal is to just never get 1 shot and then zerphis insta refill my hp. I also need to have mind of matter for flask effects. (righteous fire keeps my mana at zero so zerphi flask+div distillate effects don't end) Edit: As for gem order, I read that its better to have bodyswap first. That way, unearth wont cast an extra time if there is already corpses there. Also like I said i want IIQ as much as I can stack, so div distillate is another mandatory for what i'm going for Last edited by spluhvag on Sep 11, 2018, 4:59:20 PM

Hey mate, Im doing exactly what you are looking for.
check my profile scroll down to this char : Zak_PathLoser im running with 102% IIQ and 184% IIR + almost perfect bisco. rocking pretty well T15-16. bosses sometimes can be headache, but with RF VD u can always stay away from big hits and keep damaging the boss. Had no issues up to T15 with full IIQ gear, even Guardian maps pretty easy to MF. you just cant do the guardians ( BOSS FIGHT ONLY ) with full IIQ ofc. Core items : Poets pens / Fevered minds / Zerphi Or u can go for this link on POB : https://pastebin.com/G5eR9TQr Then for the damage and boss killing just scroll to my other character on STD named : xClearingService same build with DMG/HP version and im doing carry service with that char, was pretty easy to do 6 People party shaper fight. Uber elder is a joke. i hope that helps, by the way that characters arent "my" builds, i followed some other guys builds 3 leagues ago, and i did some changes.

" I'm not sure where you are getting your information, but Zerphi's Poets Pen PF most certainly does get its name from the flask. The base build runs Xoph's Blood, not Zerphi's heart. So I'll have to correct you there. It is literally build around the flask which enables you to be virtually unkillable. I do agree that his build is very much less than ideal, but at least try to come correct if you're going to be hard on him. Also, PF is arguably the best ascendancy for what he's trying to achieve, a Zerphi's Poets Pen build. The flask charge regeneration and resistance penetration is huge. |
