Hey, having a blast with the build, quick clear speed helped me get some currency to get going and really feeling the speed.

However I'm quite lost on how to proceed with the new jewel system - what is good, what is bad and how do we get good jewels. Could someone share their experience on how to do things right?

Also I'm not sure what's the next chase item for me. My character is public, I would really appreciate some feedback. (Still got uber lab to do!)


Just stuff that stickout, I'm sure others here can pickout a few more. But just a few things off the bat:

- enchantment helm 2 power siphon projectiles
- can get cluster with antivenom + golden rule jewel
- get thread of hope (large radius), save 3 points while still getting piercing shots
- witchfire brew, replace atziri's. Use enduring mana flask, to save skillpoints from essence sap.
- wand upgrade
- wandslinger anointment
- Just use a regular diamond flask, you already have perfect agony allocated on the tree

Thanks for the replies guys, much appreciated.

How do you acquire wand like yours? I've used https://github.com/Sectoidfodder/PoETheoryCraft to calculate the odds of rolling them and they are very slim, not sure if it's even worth pursuing unless you have a lot of currency.

@Ranmaz does withfire brew makes sense even though I have a corrupt on my gloves?

Witchfire brew makes no sense. Just get a ring with despair on hit. They are not that expensive, and they provide more utility since we don't have to get stupidly close to apply the curse.
Wandslinger is a very, VERY bad anointment. Shadow gets no spell damage nodes, so the only benefit comes from the wand's implicit.
Sitting in HO spamming alts for 4 hours straight is peak PoE gameplay. Thanks, Chris.

- I don't run witchfire myself, but it's better alternative than him running atziri's. It's not for the despair, he already has it on his gloves.

- The dps on path of building showing a massive 30% total dps for me when I allocate wandslinger. It's really a cheap alternative. Damage increase per price is well worth it.

Playing any build in SSF is difficult, you're not gonna have easy time crafting due to lack of currency.

You're missing a proper large cluster jewel and 2 medium cluster jewels with haemorage.

You're also missing thread of hope to save a ton of skillpoints.

You also lack the golden rule + antivenom notable from small cluster jewel for more poison ramp.

And the anointment you're using isn't helping your DPS either.

Thank you for comment!
yes about that chaos cluster jewel, just cant find it man, im looking for it so hard..

i do have the golden rule, still trying to get the antivenom, 2 questions related to this please:
1. on what cluster jewels u can get antivenom.
2. why is the golden rule so good? cause of the chaos resistance?

1. small cluster jewels
2. 3 reasons, assuming you get antivenom to be unaffected by poison:
- Noxious Strike ascendancy "increased poison duration per poison you inflicted recently" counts towards poisons on you, which means double dipping poison duration (enemies+you)
- capped chaos resistance
- you can roll a sextant modifier (3 tiers) that can increase your damage by up to 1200% and movement speed by 600%

On another note, build is almost complete now.
