[2.4] THE EA FUSE OVERLORD

OVERVIEW:
+ Insane AOE.
+ Superior clear speed.
+ PvP dominance (secondary dmg + AoE shotgun + zerphi sustain).
+ PvE dominance (shaper/uber-lab/uber-atziri).
+ Economical build (get started with ~30ex) with huge growth potential.
+ Nerf-proof because we don't rely on secondary damage.
+ Insane burst damage, kill most people with the initial fuse.
+ Vomiting spell at melee range
- always managing ur mana because of zerphi's (potential suicide).
- Spiderqueen will mess with u at melee range.


MECHANICS (the rocket science):
Since we are pathfinder, we have nearly 100% uptime on all flasks.
+ 75%/50% block with only rumi/rearguard.
+ 10 arrows/fuses total with dying sun.
+ 40% increased AOE from dying sun.
+ Ample life gain on attack from zerphi's.
+ EA secondary damage type.
http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Damage#Secondary_Damage
+ Scale burn damage to the heavens with double-dipping on jewels/tree/gear/gems.
+ Adaptable: swap GMP/INC AOE for CONC EFFECT/SLOW PROJ for pve boss to maximise single target dmg/burning damage. For pvp keep use GMP/INC AOE and abuse wall and terrain elevation for optimal shotgunning.
+ Using elemental equilibirum and the right CWDT setup to maximise EA
+ To sustain mana correctly we need some dmg taken gained has mana because we gain mana from the dmg caused by scold (ideal amount is around 15%, if u pass that u will have a hard time in pvp cuz u will gain to much mana n cancel zerphi's effect , n if u don't have enough u won't sustain ur attack very long).


DEFENSE:
+ 75%/50% block.
+ zerphi's life gain (mana cost is about 144 so we gain 1152 life for every attack).
+ CWDT+frost bomb to turn everyone into CI (in a bad way, i.e. rekt their life regeneration).
+ CWDT+vortex to chill all none pathfinder build (50% are pathfinder) and also help EE mechanic.
+ CWDT+molten shell+fireball+magmaorb+etherealknife+ladefall to vomit on any melee build


OFFENSE:
+ EA tooltips do not reflect your actual damage. To calculate your actual average dmg per explosion, please use the standard damage calculation formula (base damage X increased dmg x multiplier).
+ A small example: /base dmg :100 /incFIREdmg:100 incELEdmg:100 incPROJdmg:100 incAOEdmg:100/ 50% more dmg and another 40% more dmg. so the average dmg should be calculated this way : 100x4x1.5x1.4=840 then for the burning u take ur 840 has base dmg and multiplie the result by .20.
+ The scaled increased area of effect (AoE) will enhance the overlap and coverage, enabling you to control the pvp battleground.
-For pvp, EA explosion is very good due to the fact that its can't be block or dodge (enjoy this OP mechanic while it lasts).


GEMS:
+ EA setup :GMP/INC AOE/EMPOWER/FIRE PEN/LESS DURATION
+ CWDT/molten shell link with: fire pen/ele focus/control dres/less duration or iron will
+ CWDT/vortex/inc aoe/frost bomb
+ CWDT/ice nova/ele weak/
+ blink arrow alone
+ CWDT/blood rage
+ clarity alone
+ RF alone (use only vs boss or to troll in sarn)


ENCHANTMENTS & GEAR:
+ Helm enchant: EA 12% AOE
+ Glove +1 if u can
+ Boots enchant: 10% ele pen if u haven't kill recently
+ Get some ligtning or cold dmg on attack on 1 ring to trigger EE

FOUNDING FATHER OF THE NEXT-GENERATION EA FUSE OVERLORD
IGN: SALTYCROISSANT

so original!



Nerf-proof because we don't rely on secondary damage.

I think you should turn things around, secondary damages never get nerfed but all the rest does.

Also if someone use Ashren, your build loose the ignite damage, How s the raw damage then compared to a classic EA build?

To finish, pathfinder gonna get nerfed so your build not nerf-proof.

Zzz

Nerf proof...

Pathfinder?
Zerphi's?
Ea?
Sheep build


No secondary damage focus...

Heavy investment into AoE, more arrows and EA?

I don't need the burning dmg to kill, and if u want to compare this build vs other EA build be more specific PVP or PVE ?

Also this build don't really need pathfinder, if u pick lets say deadeye for exemple, imma lose maybe 1-2 sec of flask duration, most important flask being zerphi's with base duration of 10 sec, i would be fine even with no inc flask duration, and flask effect don't work on zerphi's so don't really need that from pathfinder too. The only op i would lose i immune to status ailments. About dying sun, with deadeye i would still have the same amount of proj and AOE since it give 1 extra proj and 20% AOE. With legacy rumi im over cap on attack block so even if i lose so flask effect i don't mind it at all. And since i have enough Reduce flask charge use (not from pathfinder) i gain 1 extra use on all my flask.

Unless they remove EA from the game then yeah i might get nerfed, AOE, do i need it to kill? (no) i have enough dmg on single explosion that AOE and proj become quality of life. Need proof? I can kill the shaper with this build rather quickly (pls show me where i can use AOE overlap in shaper fight). Are they gonna remove zerphi's from the game (probably not) since im using zerphi's mechanic correctly i don't see how they could nerf that, since im spending mana n not using the BM gem.

An epic guide. I didnt realise you could use GMP with EA to stack multiple explosions on top of each other. Ty

But what are all these weird ninja pictures and why are they in this thread? I thought you use EA with a bow?

Thanks for rolling out the new build. I've never seen anything like it before. Is EA a new skill, or has it just been discovered for pvp?

OK, so if I use ashren against you and we are in Sarn. You can t ignite me anymore, I avoid level design walls and the retard center spam cheese. Now how do you build compare to other pvp builds like LIBRA/TEXAS/BIITCHSLAPPED/AKEKEKE/MIES

You say you don t rely on secondary damage but the EA explosion is secondary damage.


To finish, have you seen the PVP state in POE?

Clearly there is already 80% of players in SC/temp SC playing EA. Zerphi aside there is nothing new in your build than we already seen.

Damn that post feeded alot of troll, i guess job done!!!!
