3.23 EXPLOSIVE ARROW BALLISTA ELEMENTALIST - League-Start to End-Game. Easy mode.
|
Thanks for the reply. I'll take a look at that one. Not sure the pastebin is completely up to date with 3.21 as it is also showing the +1 to resists with no reserved life that I can see.. Then again there may be something I'm just missing. How effective is just 1% resist anyhow?

" I imported one form the Op I don't see +1% resists in PoB, and we are not reserving life, we reserve whole mana and using life as mana. Every point over 75% is huge in effectives, you can look up exact number but it is pretty good. So like if you can get it somewhere as bonus its ok but there are much more important things we are looking for. | |

I'm 84 now and was struggling a bit with what some others mentioned - Getting into red maps as I was geting 1-shot by an awful lot.
I had overcapped resists but ~2.5k HP so even with nasty debuffs I didn't have time to react. My DPS is still great for where I'm at (When I'm fully set up I can hit ~800k-1 mil on a boss), however I was too focused on just stacking more damage and I was getting more and more glass cannon. I took a few steps that have massively helped: - Life on pretty much everything - Super high res rings are really easy to come by now, a few C will give you 2x 100+ res rings with a decent health modifier, as well as ele damage % - I swapped out my Rats Nest helm for a blizz crown, way too early to get anything decent on it but I rolled harvest life crafts a few times and got two t2 life - +115 life then crafted +1 aoe gems and socketed my auras in it. - Rather than focusing more points on pure damage on tree, I allocated 4-5 more life ones for now - Swapped Defiance Banner for Grace - Atm using Purity of Elephants, Precision, Grace - Quartz and Granite flasks for suppress % top up & armor - Rerolled my flasks to make sure I have immunities & 20% qual - Main one being corrupting blood/bleeding removal as that was a big one that was getting me All in all this has upped my defenses quite a lot, and bumped my life up to 3.7k. I'm now pushing through red maps quite comfortably and making XP progress, only dying every so often (usually due to careless setting up or looting). Also one thing I'd recommend to anyone who might not know - You can get yourself a super cheap 6L (About 5C) if you just search on trade for 6L corrupted body armour with the exact socket colours you want. If you keep an eye out you can actually get a cheap 6L with pretty decent stats that will carry you through to getting something better. 9d1fa2d79ff25e48ffddf4324b46f798 Last edited by Cushie on Apr 13, 2023, 6:01:00 AM

I know we've all been discussing how the end-game skill gem setup isn't explained well but can anyone tell me why he's got lifetap linked with blood rage in his glove setup? Am I missing some interaction there?

" Few improvement I suggest for now is to make your tree kinda like mine where you path to heart of oak take aspect of eagle, one with nature and quick step then take herbalism wheel since we use flaks a lot and then straight to watchtowers. This gives you better survivability while getting more attack speed and spell suppression. Getting watchtowers will enable you to get good quiver to get more life and attack speed. Once you get cluster jewels you will slowly unspec from watchtowers and anoint it. Get two life flask one fast and one slow, use jade flask and drop granite. spell suppresion flask is just not worth it I think and jade works well with grace, and granite is pointless without armor on gear and determination. I think I need to get poison removal in addition to blood since that seems to be one of pain points. What helped me a lot with survivability is getting lighting coil and some extra phys hits to elemtal on helm. this works great in tandem with primal aegis and get more use out of it. Crown is good but at this point I don't need it and add it that once my damage is already huge. before I reach that point of killing mobs fast having defense in form of lighting coil and helm like this seems so worth it. | |

I guess I need to ask for some help. Throughout leveling this build was really nice but I've hit a wall after killing kitava. Act 10 was a struggle, so I farmed there for quite a while so I could afford some gear that I'm now wearing cause I tried to squeeze as much hp as I could to try and get to 2k life. Now I'm broke and am getting bent over by white mobs and I'm at a loss as to why. Granted I suck at poe hehe and its been a couple leagues since I played, so has something changed really badly that I'm getting one shot by yellows and getting half my hp taking by white mobs?
I tried to do my 3rd lab but can't even live long enough to get to the first emp fight much less further than that. Damage seems ok. I may want to get a different bow or find something that adds lightning or cold on hit so I don't have to use my trap to proc exposure but it is taking me 20 min to do a T1 map with how badly I'm getting beat down. My resists are all well over cap. | |
" Slap an EA setup into your tabula at least. Also your skill tree is...strange(try to follow the PoB). I was able to hit white maps no prob with basic "post-act" gear(about same as yours). Last edited by Prof549 on Apr 13, 2023, 11:48:49 PM

Hi, i wondering does "adds # to # fire damage" will break the EE or only 'Adds # to # Fire Damage to Attacks" will affect ?
Thanks in advance. |

" Both will break EE. | |

I got a weapon with a crucible skill where “enemies who dies with explosive arrow shatter” or something like that. Will that help or hurt my ea ball?
And what does shatter actually do? Edit: after some reading it looks like I need herald of ice for this to work? As it helps them explode. is that so? Last edited by Ristlager on Apr 14, 2023, 8:49:42 PM
