I was just wondering, is it really better to use a shaped ring to get 5% of ele dmg as chaos instead of using a elder ring so we get the 70-80% spell damage from the Mark of the Shaper?

Sometimes 80% increase spell damage will outdps the 5% chaos. BUT, a big BUT, is that "ignore enemy chaos res" is too big a buff to ignore. Of course most enemies have no chaos res but I recall all end game bosses have like 20~30% chaos res so you are giving up around 30~40% MORE chaos damage.

So, it's been a bit since I played, and am curious if Snakepit/Gloomfang is still a good set to use or if things have changed?

I think ziggyd did making one deadeye build with that combo to min-max chain buff but a quick survey on poe.ninja shows that it is not very popular at high end game. I think it can be surely powerful, considering icicle mine is just broken.

Yeah, I remember seeing something like that on his build, but on this one, it was mentioned to use that ring/ammy combo for a free +2 chain, but I'm not sure if it's still even considered as the build looks to have changed a bit since I last played.

Excellent guide! Thank you!!!

I have some questions:

Can I use Inspiration Support instead of pierce/chain for clear&boss?
That gem pierce is the only thing different from the boss gem links, so I want to know if is really BIG the difference.


Another thing about "Detonate Mines" GEM, what is the difference triggering this gem and the Detonate Mines from Icicle?

GEM: https://prnt.sc/paydtm

ICICLE:https://prnt.sc/paydgb

Which one should I use it?

Ok I just saw that Detonate is linked with others 2 gems, my mistake i`m sorry...

About Inspiration i still have question about it

I've changed the links, see the gem links guide again. Removed crit and added inspiration for clear, and switched out chain for hypothermia for single target.

This build is a bit confusing, if I want to switch between clearing and single target setups I need to white socket my eternity? Overall the build is strong but I'm very confused and wondering how I can get more defense. My profile is public if anyone wants to give advice.

You're right, I didn't think about that. I've changed the gem links in the guide.

Thank you Memoria_Gaming! for the fast reply and again Excellent guide!!!

Hypothermia is GREEN

Hi Memoria,

I’ve been wanted to switch from the shroud to the eternity armor for sometime now. I’m still reluctant, because I was unable to get my POB to work. The ignore chaos resistance on the eternity is huge, but the shroud has 47% to element penetration along with 1% to max life/mana per abyss jewel. Also, with my current set up, I’m freeze immune.That being said, could you import my character into POB and tell me what is my dps? Thank you in advance.

Thanks for the update, definitely makes a noticeable difference for single target!
