Is there any requirement on ilvl for Skirmish to corrupt with point blank? I've probably done over 30 of them without any luck. Not sure if the rate is just super low or if I am just being unlucky.

Might just be unlucky. Was corrupting a bunch of them before I started elehit char and all missed even with alva. Started with the elehit char and first skirmish i corrupted with it hit point blank. Can't rem the level though but sure I was still on the first five acts when it happened.

Hi guys,

for the corruption outcomes, you can use the following website:

https://poedb.tw/us/mod.php?cn=Sacrifice_of_the_Vaal

There you can find the chance of getting the corruption and required ilvl for all your gear. Keep in mind, that these numbers are just for vaal orbs, not for the corruption altar, here the math is a bit different, because you have two consecutive tries, which effects the chance.

Now you know, why some corruptions are more expansive than others. Just decide for yourselfs, if you take the gamble in vaaling something or buying the finished product on trade and you get an understanding of the prices on trade (like the +1 curse yoke -> ~0.5% chance to get it -> cost of the base item - uncorrupted yoke - calculated with the chance of getting +1 curse / and a vaal orb has about 33% to brick the item)

I guess the website above will help you to make your decision.

Cheers

Actually, once you take Primeval Force (which you should) you can path it with only three extra nodes, with a slight re-route. See my tree below. And I agree...it is a steal if you do not have the corrupted quiver.

I am curious for the way to Primeval Force, you took the 12% Elemental Bonus instead of the 5% to freeze shock and ignite.

I misread the nodes: I thought it was either 12% dps or 5% shock. Now that I see it is 12% or 10%+shock I will reconsider.

Thank you Sir!

I look at OP's POB and the Ele Hit DPS is hitting 1-2 million. Mine is showing 100k. Granted I do not have all the expensive gear yet, but is it 10-20x way more DPS difference with Yoke, +2 projectile level, Point Blank, etc?

Even though without the very expensive gear, so far in T13 or so, the DPS is still very high and I am only L80.

It is not only the obvious gear like mentioned above. it is also:
- perfect unique jewels (preferably corrupted with benefits))
- 2xattack speed+life regular jewels (preferably corrupted with benefits)
- attack speed with life abyss jewels (preferably corrupted with benefits))
- 21/20 gems
- 15 or so more nodes, a good bit of which are dps
- the best boot enchantment
- opal rings with high WED and life
all while maintaining 75/75/75 resists.

It all adds up and multiplies....

This build has the great advantage (for me) that you can sink almost infinite money in it. As I usually burn out within one day after the final piece of gear is added on a character, this should really help.

Hi guys! Done with Shaper but the DPS doesn't quite like the expected from the guide.

Kindly suggest more ways to improve on my items/skill tree.

Thanks a lot! Appreciate all the help.

Adding to this: the guide on page 1 says " The Yoke of Suffering brings a huge damage buff due to the mechanic, that our fire damage can shock enemies. And we have a 100% ingnite chance, so we shock them all the time. Insane damage buff! "

This is wrong, as the wiki states:

The modifier Your Elemental Damage Can Shock allows fire and cold damage to shock, but still requires chance to shock (for non-crit hits), or a critical strike (which inherently carries a 100% chance).

So you need chance to shock. Then again, 4 totems with about 50% to shock can shock quite often.

I read somewhere even if we don't do cold damage, we still inflict ailment? So we can actually have a chance to freeze too?

Question (I'm very poor with PoB):

Which is better way to spend 4 nodes:
1) Divine Judgment (all the way to the left of the starting area) for:
- 46% increased elemental damage
- 18% increased burning damage
- 5% increased elemental penetration
- 10% extra shock effect

2) Primeval Force (in the right bottom of the tree) for:
- 102% increased crit%
- 54% increased crit multi
- 16% increased burning damage

I find the two really hard to compare, so if anyone knows this?

I tested with POB, Primeval Force wins.

hi

where is the missing 5th totem?

1 skill ranged totem
1 skirmish
1 ancestral bond
1 ascendency poursuit of faith

where is the 5th ?

Hi,
How do I make my totems not die so often on T8plus maps?
