[3.15] Fivers Frost Blades Raider (Outdated)
" " Crit multiplier, double damage, chance to intimidate, increased melee/phys damage, crit chance. There's lots of good stuff. Capping your resists is a struggle you will just need to try to find as much as you can on your rare items. Maybe make sure to have it on your jewel. I also have all the nodes in the tree that I can take for it. The elemental penetration modifier is INSANE. It matters. A 400 pdps claw WITH ele pen is as strong as a 450 pdps claw without it. I crafted a claw with 497 pure hysical dps the other day, but I would lose damage if I replaced my current claw with 424pdps and ele pen. A new claw would be a nice upgrade. Try to make sure it has crit chance on it. Ideally you don't want crit multiplier on it. " That is a sexy armour. Let me know if you need help with claw. " Awesome dude!! " When it comes to armours, the way you do it is that you get a Serrated + Pristine fossil. That is the only fossils you need to be using. But it's a lot about luck. Fossil 'crafting' is more gambling really. To make an armour with high life and maim, all you need is a body armour (preferably ilvl 86+), and use pristine + serrated on it. I actually made a video a while back about how to make one. " I would try to get a better ring, and then consider getting +1 frenzy on gloves. " Well aside from mobility you won't "miss out". That should work. Have you tried using Shield Charge? " Yes, but I'd personally try to annul the crit chance. But you can craft on it either way. " I think we talked on stream already, right? :p " This is not sometehing that I have tried out. I'll have to test it out. " Apparently Tribal Fury feels pretty good, but I haven't tested it myself. " I would personally get rid of +1 curse and go for gloves with frenzy charge on them. Another AM ring could be nice as well. Missing out on the EDWAS on the ring is a shame. I assume you have watcher's eye and/or lethal pride. Otherwise those would be nice. " You're probably finished already, but otherwise good luck! " You don't seem to have -15% mana reduced on your shield. You should only use an extra herald/aspect if you have that. Otherwise it's not viable. You can craft a shield like that by using Lucent Fossils + Pristine Fossils, and a bit of luck. Don't panic. |

" You shouldn't use Haste as an aura. You're only meant to be using Vaal Haste, for the 4 second burst damage. https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Vaal_Haste As auras you should be using Herald of Ice - Hatred - Precision Don't panic. |

" I don't mind people criticizing the build, but I don't like when people tell others something doesn't work or isn't strong or whatever, just because it didn't work out for them. :) I don't get a lot of it and I usually don't bother replying to things like that. I agree on the Multistrike really. The animation cancelling is great, but it feels like the targeting isn't as good with it anymore. You could run with IAS or something else instead perhaps. " Good idea! That's actually a question I've been getting a lot, and I never even thought about adding it. I will definitely do that! That's a nice Lethal Pride. You should see the one I made in the recent video I made lol. 80% inc damage and 60% crit. Double damage and Intimidate are OP tho. " Yeah unfortunately a lot of the things that were super-cheap last league are super-expensive this league. Last league I bought my +frenzy gloves for 10 chaos. And another good idea. I'll try to add these things to the guide. Other good ones are attack speed with blood rage and increased effect of berserk. Thank you for the suggestions! Don't panic. |

By the way, sorry everyone if I'm slow on replying. I have had a lot going on lately, and it's a lot of work to maintain the forum thread, youtube, discord, and the stream.
Thank you for being patient. <3 Don't panic. |

" This is me, Donnerdrummel. Ersatzdrummel is the account I use from work. Earlier I asked you from this account what your stance was on curses. I had to give it a try myself. When I crafted that armour I became enamoured with the thought of multiple curses. I haven't figured out whether I like this more than the +1 frenzy setup yet. (edit: I don't want to simply void the three ex I spent for the +1 curses craft on my chest. to still use this craft and yet have +1 frenzy charge on the gloves, i could to the following /edit). I could always use +1 frenzy and one of those frostbite circle of fears. When they were still cheap (I would not pay 10+ ex for those as one would have to now) I bought one of each +1 frenzy charge, intimidate and frostbite on hit. But the frenzy charge one has neither +cold damage nor increased herald effect, so thats a lot of damage missing there. One of the reasons for my indicisiveness is that I can't use PoB very well. I guess I'll just use your PoB settings and import my items and find out what I can sell. The AM ring I slammed t1 flat cold damage on. I bought it for 2 ex even without that and I figure that buying a ring with sufficient resistances, AM, life and EDWAS would be very expensive, if possible at all. But I refine my life search, thanks for that. It is a PoB thing, again. Without that, one has no chance to evaluate things correctly. I should really have familiarized myself with that earlier. You don't mention the anointment that increases 50% damage for attacks with your main hand - ever. Since you use PoB and I am lured by big numbers and small prices, I assume that greedy me picked the wrong anointment because it had such a nice price tag on it. With PoB I will be able to find out how wrong I am and whether the effect will be worth the cost of changing the anointment. Hey, this a nice homework I am giving myself at this lunch break. :-) I do have a watcher's eye and a lethal pride. The watcher's eye has flat cold damage. Did you realize that the mod that grants less mana cost for non channeling skills while affected by clarity is (currently) hardly worth anything at all? I wonder if I should buy one of those and one of the good damage mods and then run the accuracy-banner. This might add a couple of percent hit chance at the cost of possibly a hundred chaos or less to the build for those who have the mod that reduces the costs of attacks on their chest armours as well. And chance to hit is real, hard damage. What do you think? My lethal pride has - on the nodes that I am already using - 3 * 5% to deal double damage, 1 * 4% increased maximum life, 1 * crit mult, 1 * increased phys damage, if I remember correctly. There certainly are better seeds, but I really don't like the process of spending a divine orb for each attempt. At a certain point, buying better results simply is cheaper. Do you know of a database of known good results? " I spend about 2 ex fossil crafting and probably 5 ex or so chaos spamming. Then I set up a life search and bought one for 1.5 ex. I suggest you skip the mad part and buy one. set up a life search for a shield with -15% mana reservation and lots of life. Buy a very cheap one quick, craft what you need onto it. Leave that life search running. If a good one with a third or possible fourth affix pops up that is within your price range, buy that and be happy. This is possibly the best advice that I too often don't follow myself. Keep chance as far as possible from your purse. With the exception of certain items that you need soon and that are too costly to buy at the market, life search will usually be the cheapest and best way to get what you want. Thats true particularly for niche builds. (\__/) This is Bunny. Copy and (='.'=) paste Bunny to help him (")_(") gain world Domination. Last edited by Ersatzdrummel#3820 on Oct 15, 2019, 6:57:38 AM

hi guys .
What is better? 420 phys dps + penetrate x% elemental resistances Or 560 phys dps IGN: LEGOLA_FLASH (Standard)
IGN: Storm_flash (ambush) |

" I'm going to guess the 560 phys dps claw by a bit, due to it having 30-35% more dps, you can always check it out in PoB. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Recently finished shaper for the first time and I'm getting ready to try uber elder but i feel like my gear aint up to scratch and could use some pointers. Current gear:
Spoiler
The claw is a 405 dps claw (could be 415-420 iirc with close to perfect rolls) I'm not sure if i should sell this claw and attempt to craft a better one, go for a maim chest, spam uberlab for the helm enchant(s) or something else, regardless of what i do it's looking like it'll be in the several exalt range which is fine. Currently sitting at 5,1k hp which from what i gather is about 500 ish too low |

" Just throw them both onto the PoB that OP provided, if you don't have one of your own character. If the 560 claw also has 7.4%+ crit my first guess would also be that it should be the better choice by a good margin. But how big the difference is depends on many factors, so only PoB can give you that information. And if that difference in DPS is worth the 100ex+ difference in price is something only you can decide :D Something else: So, because of my gripe with how Multistrike targeting feels after they changed it, I decided to scrap the build. Not a reflection on the build itself though, it is rock solid and for what I put into it I got a very strong and fast build. So, my Lethal Pride is up for grabs: Lethal Assault: 10% chance to Intimidate enemies on hit Coldhearted Calculation: 0.4% attack damage leeched as life Ressourcefulness: 4% incresed life Blood Drinker: 5% chance to deal double damage Frenetic: 20% increased physical damage Claws of the Hawk: +15% to Melee Critical Strike Multiplier Soul Raker: 10% chance to Intimidate enemies on hit So if anyone here is interested, contact me per PN or ingame. Also not looking to make a huge profit off it. Cost me around 9ex total, including first purchase and Divine Orbs spent on it. Just thought I would mention it here because it is a very good fit for this build, and Timeless Jewels are a pain in the ass, both to sell and to buy. |
