Thank you Andy for update poison PoB <3
Ok i ditched holy relic , i was only using him for feeding frenzy buff What i did is : Cast when stunned + spirit offering + convocation in shield Convocation i like cause when i get stunned it recalls all minions to me and mobs not target me Also using multistrike cause i not have empower yet Going really smooth on red maps on 5,8 k es , started red maps at 78 and in one evening gone to 87 Im loving it Only blight i have problem Your strength is the law !!

" excellent!!! Please let me know if you see any obvious mistakes in the POB and I will correct it. Yes, this build is very poor when dealing with blights. Last league I could deal with blights when finding Cassia when mapping but I sold every blighted map I found. I believe the build owner mentions Blights as one of the few cons of the build so what you are experiencing is expected. Last edited by AndyLovesHisBge on Aug 17, 2021, 12:17:54 PM

How do clarity ES watchers eyes compare to a reduced crit damage determination watchers eye? I'm trying to choose between the two right now since I do seem to get oneshot sometimes in tough maps.
The clarity ES mod gives a huge 1k ES (I would go from 7k es at lvl 93 to 8k), but I'm not sure if that would do anything to prevent the real one shots which I feel comes from crits a lot of the time. Can anyone who's had experience with this weigh in? Last edited by Fire309 on Aug 17, 2021, 7:10:52 PM

" Instinct tells me that the 1k in ES is going to provide more defense than the reduced damage from crit. Remember that "reduced" damage is significantly weaker than "less" damage. So you are only going to be receiving a little less damage than you were before on crits if you use that mod. I am unfamiliar if POB knows how to handle that specific Watcher's Eye mod but you could create two POB's, one with the ES mod and one with the crit mod (keep all other stats the same) and then compare your EHP (Effective Health Pool) in the Calcs window of POB.

" Thank you! This is very helpful. I have never tried dominating blow so I am interested to see how it works. I have a few questions: 1) Did you make any different paths in the tree when leveling and then respec later or did you just take our normal tree? 2) Did you switch to Spider/Cyclone right at level 53? 3) What support gems should I use with smite and then Dom Blow? I will have a Tabula Rasa to use for leveling. Last edited by AndyLovesHisBge on Aug 18, 2021, 10:17:08 AM

" Impressive. However you could still buff it with right shield, body armour and amulet. Shield + amulet can give you free skill with reservation. Skin of the Lords can give you pretty powerfull in my opinion defensive buff like Iron Reflexes (if you have free Grace from shield + amulet or Phase Acrobatics if you don't) or Skin of the Loyals with +1 to game levels implicit. I tried to add HoA to the build but with no luck. I finished with some decent defence-oriented build. Not the highest ES (4.6k) and armour (46k) BUT capped resistances, block chance and spell block, 16k of evasion (52% evade chance, thanks to free Grace from shield and amulet) and 30% spell dodge. Kinda cheap build. Almost all items/gems below 50c. The most expensive was the body armour (2EX) and the amulet (8EX). The downside of the build is damage, but there is a lot of room for improvements. I need gloves with Vulnerability (too expensive for me atm). Also Healthy Mind with corruption immunity when I can afford it (and get rid of rare jewel from the tree). Also Empower lvl 4, awakened gems. Maybe diffetent armour for better survivability - with Iron Reflexes for crazy +37k armour, but I'm not sure yet if it's worth losing 53% evasion chance and 30% spell dodge... Any ideas what else I could change to buff the build? https://pastebin.com/ZU0UGfVp |
