[3.13] Saboteur Pyroclast Mine Crit - Cheap, SSF friendly
"Check in PoB, see if it's better. I'm not here to tell what is better, i just wanted to give a good & cheap base build available to anyone even in SSF. I'm not the right person to tell you what is better in terms of items as i always play in SSF for a while now ^^. | |
What would you recommend for helmet for this build? I am thinking something with the +2 pyroclast mines projectiles enchant. Seems like a lot of people use Starkonja's with that enchant or is there a better option? I have a 6 link tremor rod for pyroclast mines and a 5 link carcass jack for body armor at the moment.

"Starkonja is fine yes (and is indeed a very popular helmet), or any rare you like better than this unique. | |
How much dps buff does "+2 proj enchant" provide?
| |
"If PoB takes that into account you can see it in there. Otherwise you can calculate it, but overall it's a great dps increase, especially for clearing as you need to throw way less mines to get the same amount of projectiles than without. | |
Hi,
Is this suitable for HC? If not, any main changes I should make? Also, can I use Pyroclast only, even for map clearing? Is it that slow compared to Icicle mines? Also, what's the optimal weapon and chest for this build? What type of armor should I prioritize? (evasion/es/armour) What are the Pyroclast Mine gems priority until 6link? Thanks a lot :) zzz Last edited by lazycalm2 on Dec 27, 2019, 1:57:47 PM

"I'd not play this build in HC for sure but i'm not a HC player. If i had to play in HC i'd only play a tanky build, with chaos damage/ignore reflect. Pyroclast can be used for clearing too yes, not sure how slower it is versus icicle, didn't test it last league, i didn't play much at all. Optimal weapon/chest are displayed in the thread. We take Acrobatics so mainly evasion. You can check the priority in PoB, but i'd say something like Swift Assembly, Combustion, Trap & Mine Dmg, Fire pen, Immolate (you need a decent amount of crit already for this gem to be interesting enough).

Hi,
how do i do this (w/ Swift Assembly & Skitterbots shock effect on belt)? | |
"? I just applied a more multiplier related to what Swift Assembly and Skitterbots shock effect give. You can just copy/paste the part present on the belt to any other build you want. It's sad PoB still doesn't calculate a lot of stuff including these two, but also Impale, etc. Last edited by Harest on Dec 30, 2019, 7:21:24 AM

Noticed that there are power charges in the tree but the recommended links are:
Main setup (6l, BGBBGR) : Pyroclast Mine + Swift Assembly + Combustion + Immolate + Trap and Mine Damage + Empower OR Fire Penetration Should I be adding in Charged Mines Support? If so any recommendations on which gem to swap out? |
