[3.9] Frostblades Assassin SSF Viable. 1M+ DPS w/ Budget gear! League starter! Insane Clear Speed
I check the new tree and had a question. Why do you consider the "Claw of the Pride" node better than the "Twin Terror" node? Since you spend the same points putting one or the other. |
|
Looking like a solid starter. Though i would consider getting acro/phase acro, but not sure what to sacrifice for it. Life nodes? Would it be worth it?

You could easily do shaper with a build like this in 3.7. Uber elder would be questionable. I was able to do shaper on garbage SSF gear on a clearspeed focused winterorb build.
All you have to do is not get hit by the slam and you are good to go. ingame name: Luvecera

Is accuracy now an issue? I am not sure what it was on this build pre 3.7 but now it is 88%.
I am thinking of moving the frenzy charge nodes to accuracy nodes. |

" Accuracy is not a issue one bit. It will actually be even easier to stack accuracy in 3.7 as they are buffing it. Just get about two (or three if you really want cap it) pieces of gear with accuracy you will be all set. " You could get phase acro, never needed it, but you could get rid of some damage nodes in favor of it. We only have a 5.5k Life pool so I would advise against getting rid of life nodes. |

As the author has not updated the skill tree for 3.7, I went ahead and build one around the new Blind defence we get with 3.7 via the gem Flesh and Stone[1]
https://pastebin.com/ZPaXaUc5 - Still has 174% life from the tree. - Two leech clusters (Claw wheel and leech wheel at Duelist) - Jewels to buy are life and crit multi. - Defensive Layers are as follows (via the tree): HUGE Evasion, Blind, Leech, Phase Acrobatics, a little bit block from dual wielding, chill/freeze/shatter, and still respectable life. - One could add 3 Endurance Charges via Warlord's Mark or other means of Endurance Charge generation as another defensive layer.[2] - Or Enfeeble Curse PS: I did not pick up the Cold Wheel (Ranger area) because I either get the other 50% cold with the gloves that convert or convert via other means to lighting (eg endgame a watchers eye and storm chargers). Everyone their own. [1] https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2514087 [2] https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Endurance_charge Last edited by RPGNoobANKA#0714 on Jun 7, 2019, 7:40:23 AM

" Build is most definitely updated. Thought you were gaslighting me or some shit, so I even made sure. Thanks anyways. |
|
" I think he's referring to the skill tree links being built for 3.5, which is what I see when I go to them. Build looks interesting and am leaning toward this for my legion starter. |

Thinking about playing this as Legion league starter. Wondering how much those claws cost as I have never used them in a build? Is this an expensive or fairly moderate league starter in terms of price to get decent damage?
Also, none of the support gems have changed? Have you considered trying out any of the new ones to see if they are good? Berserk seems pretty nuts. Last edited by Embermouth#4920 on Jun 7, 2019, 11:08:58 AM

Hi,
I'm about to start the new league with this build, after coming back a week ago after a very long hiatus. However, I was trying to import the PoB info, and it didn't show me the (new) skill tree. Any idea wether it's just me doing something wrong, or is the skill tree just not updated yet? Thanks anyways for the write-up, looking forward to it! |
