[3.21] 🌿Ultimate Claw Poison Pathfinder - Untouchable Viper - Molten Strike update by FEL
" Cruelty could be good if it stacks fast, however you have to keep in mind that you would need to remove another support gem, so its not straight up 50% more. Claws with double multi is not out of the equation at all if you craft on non-influenced bases. Its still the exact same process. You lose 40-50% increased poison damage and the double damage mod however. As a comparison: Double wasp nest on my build: 20M dps on pestilent strike Double Dragon Hunger without inc poison and the double damage mod: 30M dps on pestilent strike Before hand it used to be 54M. That's with massive investment on harvest crafted gear... |

" 1. The Cruelty multiplier is based off hit damage which is not what you typically scale on a poison build... will probably be good for bleed but I have trouble seeing it be good for both bleed AND poison. 2. "The cruelty support gem grants a buff called cruelty which increases the damage over time you deal with supported skills." So it's not like you can just slap this on a whirling blade and use it like an extra link for your main skill, it's still going to have to replace your 6th link...

After the Elder mod nerf, wouldn't it be a good way to go Apep's Slumber with Replica Soul Tether and self poison with Golden Rule and Maw of Conquest? That should give alot of eHP and chaos res cap.
EDIT: Also Petrified Blood as PF with life flask Last edited by Vanderham#7973 on Apr 14, 2021, 5:54:15 PM

" You can combine that as well with that winterbrand-ring and do some shananigans for mirroring action speed, but honestly... the second claw brings too much dps to miss out on, used to play with apep´s once and I was not convinced. |
|
Apep's buffs looking good tho. Need POB to see how much dmg I'll loose versus 2. Wasp Nest.

" And all the es melts away when you turn on Blood Rage... :/ It's not easy to compensate damage loss. Ill work on it during next week. My best bet would be stacking extra flat chaos damage. |

I would also like to thank everyone posting over the last few days with the feedback from 3.13 league. I'm reading all posts just don't have much time to participate on the thread.
I'm glad you guys had good time. Some reached lvl 100 which is quite amazing. Keep spitballing ideas for the new league. We will work something out. ;) You can still league start with this build but given it's current limited gear progression, i would advise that this time you go with maybe something stronger.

" You get 400 ES/s from Apep's tho. With Soul Tether you should get around 2k ES w/o much investment, so Blood Rage degen would be no problem. Dunno if I miss something here. Last edited by Vanderham#7973 on Apr 14, 2021, 6:48:51 PM

" Hm, might work but its really tight. Losing rare belt would make balancing resistances a nightmare. |

Yeah also one jewel + helmet if you go self poison. But you get chaos res cap and some ES with the helmet.
EDIT: This looks more like a early league tanky poison PF. With Petrified Blood and a Life Flask and maybe even a Bismuth Flask (even Wise Oak?) you'll hit res caps with low investments with ~4.5k life / ~2k ES and around 2-2.5M SDPS (with PS tho!). Also around 45k armor, 400 ES/s, dunno how much L/s and LoH. I killed Sirus8 with way less SDPS and Def. :) EDIT2: Replica Soul Tether was quite expensive this league. So not easy to get for the first days. Last edited by Vanderham#7973 on Apr 14, 2021, 7:13:11 PM
