[3.15] Fivers Frost Blades Raider (Outdated)
Hi Fiver, thank you again for this guide and for answering questions :)
So it's my first time playing claws, and im new to POE in general. Im looking to upgrade my 249 DPS Wasp Nest claw with a 1ex budget. Considering these 2 options for 1 ex currently for sale: Claw1: 333 PDPS (333DPS) Claw2: 201 PDPS + 167 EDPS(COLD) (368 DPS) Am I correct in assuming that Claw2 is best? or how important is the PDPS part. I have linked the details in the spoiler section. If you or someone else can answer this before I buy a claw ill be grateful.

" On the first look I would prefer the second one especially because it also has the option to have a crit suffix. You could even craft crit/qual to increase the pdpds a little further. Also the second one has higher base aps and therefore a higher aps over all but this is a personal preference... The first one can be improved to 383.508 pdps when putting to 20% quality. The second one would only lose a small amount of crit but could reach 237.947 pdps with a crit/qual craft. But I haven't checked the weapons in PoB. It's just an assumption.

Hy
I'd like to know if we have a 6L 3R 3G what set up should we use ? Also on the mark of elder the stat in order of importance is it % increased maximum Life % then increased Attack Damage if your other Ring is a Shaper Item Or is it the oposite damge/then life ? PS: maybe do someone know where we can find the reciepe to craft 3 socket of the same color ? Last edited by gisabelle#2156 on Sep 13, 2019, 8:08:44 AM

Hey, someone already check the Oil Passive Recipes? Which one is good for amulet and Rings? Some suggestions for this build?

" Items: I would start by getting the right flask setup. You need an Atziri's Promise, Lion's roar and Taste of hate/overflowing chalice/random sulphur flask. You should also replace your belt. Meginord's gives a good amount of life, and decent damage, but not as much as you can get from a rare belt with EDWAS on it. And if you get a Stygian Vise, you also have a jewel to account for. After this I would focus on getting MotE + Shaped ring. After that I would go for a new claw. Replacing your body armour is obviously a high priority as well, but if you are comfortable with tabula, you can play with that for now. You can, however, just search for uncorrupted 6Links at a decent ilvl and fix the stats yourself. That's what I've done right now. I'm using a Armour/Evasion chestpiece, since it's easier to get the right colours on the links, on one of those. This is a temporary solution, but a lot better than a Tabula. It cost me about 50c. Skills: You should get a Vaal Haste ASAP. That's a lot of burst DPS. I'm assuming you already switch between AC and Ruthless, but I'll mention it anyway. Passives: You need to get those last ascendancy points. I am fairly certain I can carry it if you have problems doing it yourself. With new flasks and a Vaal Haste, you should be able to do it fairly easily, as long as you don't eat all Itzaro's big attacks. Get all the darkshrines you can. If you get "Movement ceases, tension mounts", that helps a lot. Getting a buff of any kind is also really useful. Other than that, keep moving forward. You're moving in the right direction. " Nice job dude!! That's a good chest and no reason to replace that one any time soon. Crafting can take time, but keep going, and you'll get it! I am really happy that so many people have taken it upon themselves to craft their own claws. It's super fun to craft! :p " You are correct, the first one would give more damage, but it's by a rather small margin. Gnomiro has some good pointers below. " If you get a rare that reduces nearby enemies cold resistance, those can be pretty cool. The advantage of going for a rare is having an extra item to get resists from, which would possibly allow you to spend your passive points differently. Going for a rare is definitely a viable option, depending on what you get. You lose a lot of damage by going for the one you linked, though. " On a 3G3R I would use: Frost blades - Edwas - Nightblade - Hypothermia - Rage - Multistrike/Ancestral Call % then increased Attack Damage is the most important stat on MotE. You find the socket recipes by delving. Don't panic. |

" Oils are difficult. There are many options that are all great. But Constitution for life. Claws of the Falcon for damage. Are my current picks. If you wanna ditch Ancestral Call, then Tribal Fury is cool. There are a couple others as well. Right now i'm just using "Beef" for the STR req Don't panic. |
|
" Well, this league it's been a lot harder than usualy, since claws have been extremely expensive. But it's not uncommon to get a 320+ dps claw from a drop/essence/fossil/chaos. It's not something I usually spend much time or currency trying to get though, since bloodseeker does the job most of the time. Don't panic. |

Is divine fervor a good choice of oil for the build?
