Yes. that would be correct. If you don't mind me asking, what are the low life ES based numbers in your Pob setup? Greater than 3 mill+ per mine (shock added)? I posted some optimized DPS above.. nothing mirrored, just decently crafted gear. At 1.5 Million Tooltip DPS 7.4k EHP. No tricks here.

Sure thing.

My PoB with optimal conditions (Elemental Weakness, Frost Bomb, Shocked enemy) gives ~659k average hit on Shaper/Guardian. That's about ~1.1m against normal enemies. In-game tooltip damage is ~133k when buffed. Here's the PoB: https://pastebin.com/nP34gFsc

I'd be curious to see your PoB too, if you don't mind.

EDIT: I made edits above to remove misleading wording. Each hit of Glacial Cascade delivers the damage numbers calculated above, and GC can hit multiple times on a single enemy due to overlapping hitboxes.

If you zoom in on my img you can see its 1.35 million tooltip no aurabot. About 10x yours tbh although not using hypo in this instance. I'll link Pob for you shortly as i often change the tree from an aoe focus to dps to Ehp versions. Ill send a Dps version first. I will also Pm you directly as i don't want to cause a stir. I am making a build guide for 3.6 and will finalize it after full details are released as well with a nod towards specific crafts for dps optimization. I am familiar with the GC mechanics and am simply stating numbers per mine. GC hit boxes and multiple hit potentials based on aoe or threshold jewels are for another thread. All the gear can be crafted yourself as long as you get the crafts such as multiple mods from the pale council. Yes it took a few ex of alts and and few ex of multimodding to refine, and some gear with corruptions were easy to obtain through trade quite reasonably without the es restrictions.

To summarize, with just a little skill at crafting and farming, these numbers can be achieved in the 30ex or less range depending on rng and trade opportunities. It is also utilizing both Winter jewels which could be dropped for damage life jewels at the cost of AOE. It also has damage not shown at all in POB such as increased crit multi around a nearby rare enemy crafts. It rivals or beats mirrored setups and may just in fact be the highest dps of any build in leagues without mirrored gear outside of the "i have 73 minions doing millions of dps" shinanigans.

UPDATE: Sent you a decent DPS Pob. Abyss jewels and a few other items could still be optimized abit more. Close to 3.5M per GC buffed. There are other setups that switch belt, ring, and chest for more speed, more aoe, more life, and comparable dps. 5.2k life, 600es, 1750 mana. 7.5k ehp roughly currently. This is a fair and balanced setup. If you wanted to go with glass cannon sillyness, over 4m per GC hit buffed is achievable at the cost of getting one-shotted but i certainly wouldn't advise it. The huge AOE version with Corrupted carcass jack and a higher life belt/ring hitting 8k ehp comes just under 3m per gc but has 2 frenzy charges minimum for faster clear/2 screen Aoe with minefield. It really all depends on the flavor of the day as i'll use one for boss killing services and the other when farming or supporting large parties.

(Also, on a side note, based on your dps numbers, your actual shock effectiveness is weak based on lightning damage and is therefore inflated by Pob. This is also a large factor in actual determiniations. When you raise your dps with lightning (no yoke needed) upwards of 800k+ a hit. You actually do get the fully weighted effect so realistically you should drop the 50 percent multi from shock on shaper and add maybe 5 to 10 percent to surmise your truly buffed numbers based on your linked pob.) At the end of the day I hope you can see why i think the life based version of the build has the real dps potential. Thanks for inquiring mate. GL HF

I wanted to say that I was not trying to correct your understanding of the GC mechanics. I'm very sorry if that upset you at all. My edits were to my own remarks only. Thanks again for your help on the build!

Thanks for the side notes about shock effectiveness as well. I'm going to read up on that more to understand it properly and how it affects damage calculation.

All in all, thanks. :)

You didn't mate. I apologize if my post seemed condescending or irritated. That was not intended. I was just trying to bullet the gap difference between the setups and was not trying to come off as arrogant. I have loved lots of Poe builds with miner being my favorite since 1.3 discharge days and 2.4 Coc.

With the advent of instants skills being added, to include mine detonation, the "clunkyness" of mining has gone to the wayside. I have done at least 1 miner character the last 4 leagues from LL to CI and have simply found, for me at least, the best combination of damage and survive-ability in a Life based version (unless you are planning a deep delver, then you need a ci build, no question).

I am happy to share any insights and will be going forward with an updated guide after more 3.6 details are released. Thanks for your interest mate.. May RNG be with you!

To be honest, I respect TomorrowTech, He was the one who helped me build a strong character.I have been played with him many times and gained some knowledge along the way. After all, I could enjoy more of playing this game, and will continue in next league.
After working with tomorrowtech today, he helped me fine-tune some items and gear with specific crafts to get the maximum damage possible with 7k life/mind over matter. Thanking windz for the start and tomorrowtech for the finish. 3 power charges, 3 frenzy charges, and buffs. Looking forward to your build guide next league my friend.

arc mines will kill shaper easily on a tabula

gc mines offers more dmg, but the QoL from arc is too good for mapping. its personal preference, but i would recommend arc mines with generic crit spell dmg/crit daggers and switch to gc when you feel you can invest in big gg phys gained as extra weps

you can def do almost all content on 2x 30% princesses
