38M DPS on a Budget, Please help a newbie
I think I've got a build that seems to be very cheap, yet gets tons of damage. I'd like some creative criticism
https://pastebin.com/AFjLp7HR The high level is we use Triad Gloves to do as much cold damage, then use negative enemy cold resistance to ramp up the damage. We use Vaal summon Skeletons and SRS to add even more multipliers. On a 5L Saqawal's Nest By my calculation we have 38M DPS, mostly from Vaal Summon Skeletons (41*441k DPS), but also from SRS (20*487k DPS) and Skeletons (9*802k DPS), with a tad from zombies and summon Phantasms. On a 6L Saqawal's Nest, which makes this not budget-friendly, By my calculation we have 55.8M DPS, mostly from Vaal Summon Skeletons (41*657k DPS), but also from SRS (20*727k DPS) and Skeletons (9*1193k DPS), with a tad from zombies and summon Phantasms. Some of the Core elements for gaining this damage is Ape Chieften for frenzy charges, Avian's Might , Flesh Offering, Hatres, Bonechill, Frostbite, and Elemental Weakness. Some of the areas where's it is weak is in life at a paltery 3.8k + Elemental Aegis and Steelskin (when it is up from the wand trigger). I tried to increase the effective health by getting a They of Tul and Ruin's Helion and trying to stay out of battle. But still it gets one shotted by the Conquerers. In big boss fights it is easy to get most of the damage activated through From Dust, and Vaal Summon Skeletons being one key and you have an army. The damage booster coming from a Storm Brand very quickly gives me some damage and is fire and forget. The SRS and flesh offering take a bit longer to get going. I've tried looking at more defensive layers but don't know the right way to manage it. The above is a clean build. Here is my profile where I am running this build (COLD_CHIP_ON_SHOULDER) https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/borg286 Last bumped on Aug 7, 2020, 7:27:25 AM
