3.23 EXPLOSIVE ARROW BALLISTA ELEMENTALIST - League-Start to End-Game. Easy mode.

You can use charms for spell suppression.

Hey exiles, I need your help! I crafted everything in the build. I've spent around 35 divs on average. However, the build is very fragile, and unfortunately, it pales in comparison to the new league mechanics. What updates do you think I can make? I think i need more damage.

And this is the my pob: https://pobb.in/SrwXbtirmPcW

Hi, i decided to start mapping with this build but i think i meesed something up. Struggle is real. I basically cannot kill any mob and i got oneshotted almost immedietaly. It feels like i dont do any damage and dont have any defensive. Need your help guys, im open to every change.

My POB:

Hi there. I am currently looking to invest around 40-50 div into my build (https://pobb.in/WjKBUcxRpHdI) but I am unsure into what. I am still missing the helmet that would give me quite considerable damage boost but it is very expensive in poetrade. Would welcome any insight into my build and where to invest.

Survivability feels good enough but damage is a bit lacking, at least for higher rares / bosses.

Thank you all v much

Your spell suppression is at 66%. Make it 100. You're at 4/4 evasion so +15 from evasion mastery for starters. I would tell you to go for hyrri's ire which also grants more damage, but that puts you very low in the hp department... you wanna tweak the build for more hp imho.
But i insist on the spell suppr at 100 : right now, 3 spells on you, one of them will hit you for full damage instead of half, kinda. That's the difference between living and dying.

I see you ar 110/123 although you're level 92 so there are some skill points available or you didn't do all campaign quests. In case there's no point check with the ingame command, or just look at the quests in game.

Remove exposure from gloves (useless), add proliferation implicit instead. Especially considering you have NO prolif at all right now !! How do you want to clear packs efficiently ? :D
Really basic upgrade to help a lot

There are 2 jewel sockets available for 3 points (on top of sentinel and between vigor and savagery. That second one would usually be a lethal pride, but right now may be too early : your fuse count (i count 10 out of 22 max !!!) is too low for relevant results for later. Ok there is a value you really didn't "value", see below*

Is mortifying aspect on ? It isn't on the PoB. Probably do the swap between 4L and 6L to put all auras in a 6L (so get rid of culling strike and advanced traps) and :

*ADD PRECISION. You're at 52% hit chance, half the arrows from ballistas don't hit right now, that explains the low fuse count. If you get a charm for no banner reservation, precision could be level 20 (80% hit chance. Or if you get enlighten 4 precision could be level 17/18 (77%/78% hit chance then)
Would still have to work towards more accuracy on gear. For now as a temporary fix 4 points to get weathered hunter nodes, you'd be around 90% hit chance doing this along with precision. Another point you can even get accuracy mastery.

The 2 points on widespread destruction would be better allocated somewhere else, if you're looking for tree points


With enough hit chance, lethal pride becomes relevant again. Look for 12824 one and put in on duelist area.

Get a better ring instead of flammability one. Get real flammability, attached to arcanist brand.

You've got a nice covered in ashes (+totem taunt) charm, so you can replace polaric devastation for something better too.

Probably change your dot mastery for more duration.

Again on gear, several items are "half good" right now. There's definitely a lot of improvement to get from rings and gloves.

Edit : omg, 2 people posted whils i was writing this. Guys, take a look at the last few pages at least, there's a lot of things that we keep repeating, lot of advice to get. Personally won't have time right now to take a look.

Hey there, I'm having trouble creating the poe trade search for impossible escape with precise technique - can someone send the URL please? Would like to see how much it is and start saving up for it. Thank you!

Should be :

Much obliged, thank you! For some reason when I entered it in the search filters the value would only come up as the numbers for min and max.

I'm trying to figure out how Anena's build is getting 80k ehp while I'm getting only 56k. Any ideas? I don't have the lethal pride or impossible escape yet but from the looks of it they won't add enough ehp to make up the difference. I might be missing something obvious. The build does tons of dps but I still feel very squishy from random one shots in t16 wisped maps.

eHP can be very miss-leading, looking at each individual max hit tells a better picture of your builds weaknesses.

In your case you are not chaos capped and have a relatively low physical max hit. Your using 3 unique flask, which means you dropped your granite flask. Your also using all evasion gear with little to no armor on any items, so when you do get hit, the hits are going to be big.

Get 21 versions of your aura gems, going from 20 to 21 determination is like a 'free' 500 more armor.

I know a lot of people are against it in this thread, but Divine Flesh with Doppelganger is a really strong option, explore it and see if its for you.
