With enough gear, BFBB can easy-mode all endgame content. Single target dps is actually extremely high and you can make the build very tanky.

You can easily peak over 100+ million dps with some buffs up.

9k+ effective HP
Overleech
elemental ailments immune
Stun immune
Decent phys dmg mitigation
High performance immortal call
Block cap for both spells and attacks (glancing blows tho)
Life and/or ES recovery on block.

I'll say tho... one of the things that made this build FARRRRRRRRRRRR more enjoyable to me, was scaling cast speed really high. This makes targeting, boss mechanics and moving around sooooo much better overall and its an extremely noticeable quality of life.

You can even do EB + MoM setup if you wanna be lazy about mana (this is a setup I did and it has been working wonders for me) but the pure HP build is also extremely powerful and just as good in my opinion.

The build works on a budget but can also be scaled very high with some gg gear.

This was my take on the build (current gear):

I have been struggling with single-target damage like some of the others on here and was stuck on level 91 for a week and now 92 for a couple of days. It seems that every time I make a little progress forward I hit a mob pack that kills me several times and I lose 20-30% and have to start the climb again.

Appreciate any leveling advice you can share.

Thanks.


There are many ways to get to 100 really fast. It just depends on what your goal is... Certain league content like Pure Breach stones, Simulacrum, Legion 5 Way event are all ways to boost your xp really fast.

For just "plain mapping", there are also specific methods to really increase your XP per hour... Delirious Maps with Single/Double/Triple beyond with the extra XP bonuses from atlas passive tree points and specific watch stone mods. Using scarabs that add a lot of enemies like Elder scarab, Legion scarab etc... Sextants that also add enemy packs are a big boost as well.

It all adds up to significant different in xp between a "plain" t16 map and a "juiced up" t16 map.

Mapping fast and not dying are of course obvious important aspects in general.
What's the minimum amount of currency I gotta invest in this build to not die in T16 and complete maps at a decent pace?

How did you scale single target dps higher? A8 sirus takes a while for me , T16 maps everything , even rares , are oneshoted.
There is a website https://www.craftofexile.com/ that is really helpful to learn crafting.

I went from noob to less noob within hours

However there is a few things it cannot do (from what I seen) is enchantment.

Anyway, a quickie first. Which enchantment is better?
Quality grant AOE or elemental damage for this build?

Does Scouring orbs or fossil craft (for juicy 30% quality) remove this enchantment.

I asked this as I found some good base with these implicits & want to use as base for sceptor rafting.

Your version seems interesting, last league I was playing BF|BB as in main post, and I really was struggling with the casts speed. I think I will try your approach. I just a lil terrified by your gear how much was it? ) How did you crafted this shield? thx

Just looked up DMG numbers, are those real or inflated for lulz?

So I was able to alt spam an ES based warlord shield to be +1 phys and fire damage. Any suggestions on what to do now ?

Happy to see you post here :D. I've actually been trying to copy your take on the build after seeing you hit level 100 on poe.ninja.

At what level did you start spec'ing into the cluster jewel setup?

Also, any critique on my gear for next upgrades would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

I’m just wondering if there is a CI version for this?
