Dude i dont want to shit over your build thread or smth, but seriously, you should consider doing an update for your current PoB to something achievable or actually real.
There's no point in making a lvl 100 tree just to scale dps numbers (when you know very few people will actually reach that level and even fewer will do it WITH THIS BUILD in particular) and also showing placebo dps with mirror-worthy gear. Your build does not have 4.5mdps, perhaps only a small portion of people in STD will be able to achieve that, and even then when you consider the amount of currency that you will have to spend to even get close to those numbers you will found out its pointless, when you can potentially reach the same amount of dps (and tons more) with another build, and for half the cost. I understand the streamer struggle and your need to advertise your channel to get viewers, but with this bullshit you're actually loosing potential subscribers.

" Im going to say this one more time and one more time ONLY. unqiues are not hard to get maxed rolled. it runs 2 jewels NOTHING amazing. All the flask are 100% logical and very obtainable. So then lets go into these 6 yellow items that make this build" dreaming. The gloves - Attack speed life and accuracy Boots - Life, MS, Tri res Neck - Flat physical,crit,crit multi,life Rings - opals - Flat life and res Belt - Strength, Life , weapon ele So please explain to me how those are any different then any MIN MAXED item. If i wanted a mirror guide I would put on 2 x 500 dps claws and way better items. THIS IS MIN MAXED GEAR saying this is bad without them, ok so lets do this. I removed The neck and the 2 rings. aka I dont have them on any more and its STILL 3m dps. Still DOUBLE the dps of the last PoB. Please stop whining about the gear just because you have never had enough money to pick up one. The gear is there to show what to go for when you are Min/Maxing the build. YOU DO NOT NEED THOSE STATS. Stop wanting your hand held. |

This update is rather poorly done. A lot of issues have been mentioned by other people, but another thing is that removing the extra jewel nodes doesn't actually make any sense. I just bought a jewel for 25c (and I'm sure with patience you could get one for significantly less) in HSC that adds %1 increased max life, 220k dps, and gives an extra 18 strength by removing the 4% life node next to thick skin and the attack speed node next to Fencing. Even if you assume you're a bit lower level and have better nodes that you'd be forced to remove, a decent jewel still comes out way ahead. Taking out Acuity or Fencing and an adjacent node puts it at +110k dps and 5% increased max life (and +18 strength). Definitely some optimization to be done with this update, in addition to the dps-whoring issues.
For reference, the jewel is +12% to melee crit multi, +18% to crit multi for cold skills, 5% max life, and +8 to str and dex. It can pretty easily be improved by a divine orb if I want more life, as well. Edit: I should point out that I've really enjoyed your build so far and it's well done overall, just that this update has lowered the quality of the guide quite a bit imo, particularly for less experienced players trying to pick the build up. The biggest thing probably being that the flask setup is unrealistic (no freeze/bleed removal, no health flasks?) which may be easily fixed by people that know what they're doing, but could cause problems for less experienced players.

I don't understand all the "bashing" in the last couple of pages. Guy puts out an awesome build (albeit based on perfect gear) for people to use.
I see build guides as a starting point, people should look at it and decide how to modify it based on own play style. Do people just expect a perfect guide with no changes and expect to delete the bosses? Entitlement hey! Side note, tried shaper yesterday (first time on this char) and did it with 1 death - pretty impressed. Also like the new ascendancy - i reckon overall less damage for bosses when onslaught isnt up but hell, for map clearing it is insane. keep up the good work! |

Just one question here
Could some extremly good jewels outperform the Unique ones ... PoB says yes but don't account the extendend range mfg Majin Last edited by Majin111#2164 on Aug 20, 2017, 11:43:36 PM

If somebody wants a "closer to reasonable" PoB there was one posted like 5 pages back of somebody who was at 3m+ dps without perfect rolled gear. Give that a check out. Here is mine at about 1M dps and my gear is pretty attainable, although I am running a 6L Belly and ToH. My build also doesn't have any "necessary stats" from amulet, either, so it allows me to switch to Biscos for easy content (anything below T15).
I've never streamed before but if somebody wants me to I can figure out how to show T13+ content with this build. Edit: Just set up a stream. If somebody is curious how this build runs with medium-medium high gear, just come watch. Will be mapping all night probably after I eat dinner. https://www.twitch.tv/nonmagical/ Edit: Here is that PoB link: https://pastebin.com/ZM36PDwv Last edited by NonMagical#3638 on Aug 21, 2017, 12:26:18 AM

to all of you with 6L Belly, did you buy it for 550 chaos, or you linked it yourself?
