[3.9] Windz's Generic Miner Sabo (Arc/Pyroclast focused)

Im looking for a GC miner build for pure boss killing.

Is this still the build or is it converted too much into a map clearing build?

I'm in act 8 near the end and was thinking of doing some upgrades once I reach level 70, but am not sure what exactly I should be going for first(priority). I was thinking of grabbing yoke of suffering, but then saw a post about grabbing lvl 20 corrupted glacial cascade. I found a few quality 23 corrupted cascades for 8-10 chaos. Additional I lack a lot of stats in my gloves, belt ,shoes, and helm (everywhere really lol) but hopefully I get good drops when I start to map. I've been using clarity, but I could upgrade to vaal.

Lastly, I looked at some profiles and saw a few different jewels being used. Clear mind, the long winter, watchers eye. Is it worth grabing these in the skill tree before I finish the crit nodes? Should I just be looking at clear mind? I also looked at some flasks but holy exalts. I'm thinking about praying to the exalt god and sacrificing body parts.



I will continue to read the posts in this thread but thanks to all who help regardless. I have one Last question about the 2 rare daggers I posted. Maelstrom seems to be the better of the, too right? Because of the increased crit chance for spells? I seriously need a hyperbolic time chamber to ingest the Poe wiki, so I can figure this stuff out on my own.






Pretty much all your gears need a massive overhaul. Get yourself a 5 or 6 linked carcass jack and use it for your glacial cascade links, 6 link is optimal but 5 link should be good enough for all content in the game.

The jewels are great. Clear mind grant you mana regen and up to 60% spell damage (I believe) so long you don't have any mana reserved and you achieve this by slotting Hatred Aura in an essence worm ring

The flasks are expensive, no denying there but as a replacement get vaal clarity gem and use that, it should be up for every pack, it just grants you infinite mana (skills cost no mana) and a very good replacement to


Since you're just starting, I can give you some of my old gears.



Don't mind the pricetag, they're free if you're willing to take them. The helmet is in a sense a 6 linked helm. Use, increase critical chance, glacial cascade, conc effect, and minefield support in there and it should allow you to clear all content in the game and let you use whichever chest piece you want (I'd still recommend Carcass Jack) get a cheap one and socket it yourself, if you manage to 6 link one, swap the gems to the carcass but it shouldn't be your priority with the helm. As for the Dagger, it's a good starter one, where you get everything you need from it, if you've got enough currency get a multimod added to it then craft stuff like this on there
Obviously it's not as strong as this one but it'll get the job done. Note: Multimod cost 2 ex and requires level 8 Elreon, if you got the EX, you can get someone to craft it for you, there's a few people and I personally recommend "ephiservice" he's a cool dude and can mod and mastercraft stuff for you, I use his services every league, no issues whatsoever- just pm him and tell him I've sent ya.

Let me know if you want the stuff. I also have a
if you want, this grants cold pen but make sure that cold resist is your highest resistance past cap and you'll have 13% cold pen during boss fights on use.

The other gems like Watcher's Eye, you'd want cold penetration 15% (max rolled) at the very least, this makes it so that you do more damage against bosses where it matters like Shaper and such. The other one I would recommend is 2 x The long winter, they're cheap atm, like 5c or so each compared to 25C when league started. I suggest you grab 2 of those and slot them in the passive tree. You don't need to spec in the intelligence nodes, providing they're in the radius, you'd still get the benefits of it. It allows you to convert 100% damage to cold. The way the conversion works is after the physical damage% bonuses is added, so speccing in say a 20% physical damage node will still give you bonus damage to cold. This allows you to get another enchant on your helmet like glacial cascade damage or better yet (until you can get a good essenced crafted glove) would be 15% attack speed for shield charge.

Flick me a tell and I'll gladly give you those items and yeah once again they're free. They helped me a lot and I've received help from random people. Just paying it forward.



Can you explain how u crafted that Ambusher? I see that you have 2 convertion mods, can you roll them both just by using alts?
how come your endgame PoB link is using elemental dmg from shadow, but your current (lvl 93) and other PoB links are using physical/chaos nodes instead?

farmed enough currency to buy 2 mirrors with this build lmao so OP

you are either telling lies or you farmed your ass in HOTG and got lucky and dropped a lot of cards. dont see how you can farm so much with this considering I got like 60ex this league and i consider this league pretty neat in terms of my luck :D or you dropped a mirror or 2 that would make sense considering you didnt really spend much on your gear.



just because you don't farm the same way i do doesn't mean i couldnt have farmed a couple hundred ex lmao. my gear is shit because i didn't need to upgrade it anymore beyond what i was farming. If you actually believe that i was lucky enough to drop 2 mirrors within a month of a league that's great lmao. my 2mirrors are just the icing on the cake got a ton of other shit worth another 100-200ex

Hi , I'm a beginner and I started with this build for abyss league ! And so far for the main storyline , I completed it without too much problems!
However I don't know what I should upgrade for my stuff? I want to clear high tier map really fast in order to earn enough currency to do whatever builds I stumble onto but I'm already struggling a bit with T2-T3 maps . (I think Mind over Matter takes too much mana for survivability and it's like I can't cast any spells if i'm getting hit even though I took vaal clarity with Cast When Damage taken support (not sure if it self cast))

Since I don't have a lot of chaos orbs or ex , what advice would you guys give to me so that I can get a bit of currency?

Thanks a lot !

Get a handful of abyssal jewels with ele pen on them and you shred bosses in a few seconds. My GC miner was able to shred T2 elder ins about 6 seconds with these:




Im considering taking out the none-abyssal jewel with life/mana and adding in another abyssal with pen jsut because of how absurd it is.

As for why, shaper only has 40% resists, and with this setup i have 28% pen, and frost bomb which lowers his resists by 20%, so an effective 48% pen agasint a boss with 40% resist.

Yup, people don’t realize that farming a lot of currency is about efficient play and also play time more than anything. Luck certainly helps but when you farm a lot, it actually ends up evening out.

Can you explain how u crafted that Ambusher? I see that you have 2 convertion mods, can you roll them both just by using alts?


As per one of my earlier post. Those are two prefixes. So you can't roll 2 prefixes with Alts.

You use alts until you get 2 mods you need or want, e.g. attack speed and say 40% cold, then use a regal and hope for another extra damage mod (those aren't conversion BTW they're pure extra damage just like an extra hatred gem).

If you get lucky and unlucky, like me, since I rolled 2 mods extra cold and poison damage on hit and regaled the lightning damage. You craft prefixes cannot be changed then use a scouring orb which will remove the master mod and the shitty suffix (in the my case it was poison on hit) leaving the ambushed with gain extra cold and extra lightning leaving you with to choice to craft anything you want.


Best thing to do is all until you get a suffix and prefix you want like I've said e.g. increase attack speed and gain extra cold, then use a regal orb, if you get lucky and score extra chaos or extra lightning then good work, you just made a 5-30ex dagger depending on rolls and if you don't score an extra damage roll, you simply scour, then restart. So for a good crafting sess, have like 1k alts, 100regal, 100scour and like 200 augmentation orbs.

It is a great boss killer with average clear speed. You won't be disapointed
Is the Kinetic blast version realy faster than this one ?
