[3.10] Bashtart's SPARK INQUISITOR * farming like a god! :)

How much life should I aim for if I want to kill bosses with your Vaal Breach setup?

Also, I've been messing around with a Pledge of Hands to make space for Life Leach Support while using a Cherrubim's Maleficence Triumphant Lamellar for the rest of my skills for some real quality life steal. I have more than 10% life leach :).

I guess +5k life and 1k unreserved mana is a good goal to aim for... the more the better:)

I am new to PoE and I got a question regarding the Jewel Radius.

It says, that the Hazardous Research Cobalt Jewel needs at least 40 Int in Radius. On the left side of your passiv tree there are 50 Int in Radius so there should not be a problem. But on the right side, there are just 20 Int in Radius!

Are the Jewels Radius counted together to a summ of 70 Int in Radius or how does it work?


Cheers, Lupiane

Hi no it is no counted together as a sum but the int has not to be allocated. So both jewels should just work fine...

For bandits? Alira.

If somehow you are maxed out and even 15% over max on all resists (which is doubtful, or at least difficult to do), then switch to the 2 passive points using the vendor recipe and aim for a close by jewel slot and spend a few ex on a decent jewel.

How is the single target of this build? Would be better to get a single target skill and Arc as pack clear?

Single target is a weakness of this build ... with decent gear you can kill nearly all Bosses... I would not recommend doin shaper with this build. I got him once to 10% so I guess it is possible but takes like forever. I don’t think arc would be better but feel free to try it out.

I must admit after some time mapping that shield charge is an amazing movement skill. I was under the false impression that their was a cooldown in the same style of flame dash... damn this skill is fast now.

I'm switching back to your setup for those socket. :)

I do love Spark. Even more so this build concept. I have even went so far as debated on cannibalizing my Dark Pact zerker to squeeze out an extra 20-30ex before it's inevitable nerf to see where I can push this build even further by leagues end. (I prefer mapping with this, over DP -- despite DP having higher damage).

For this build, POB shows about 580k-ish total damage (89k avg) with the optimal "mapping" conditions and me spamming my flasks (which still need to be optimized) + molten shell.This doesn't include the DPS buff from vaal breach or esh's, nor does it include a proper flask setup ( I still run double health flasks ).

Currently, up to volcano is a breeze when speed-mapping (certain things I gotta look out for, but I optimized pretty well, I think). I generally stick to Shaped dunes, but have taken a shine to Excavation recently (It's a shame about shield charge and any OP pebble in my way - ditto for firing spark's into them or a wall).

Beachheads are beyond easy (though not sure if I get decent returns from those just yet -- that and as lvl91 I don't need to run those just yet). breach domains are fine-ish. I ran a few uber labs without much difficulty, though I hate traps so I usually wait until I level.

I am currently trying to grab one more level before trying out the guardians. As the OP stated, this doesn't seem suited for Shaper (even with Vaal breach + choir + brotherhood, etc) -- which is sad when you see things like a less optimized wander build that can do it.
