[3.13] Power Siphon/Kinetic Blast Poison Assassin - Very fast and tanky poison wander

Look, guys (or gals). This thread contains all the information you would need to figure out why your damage is lacking, or what's wrong in general.

There's PoBs posted under my videos, you can go to my profile and look up my character - it's all there.

We cannot continuously reply to each and every one of you to answer your whys and whats. Don't you agree it would be better if you did some of your own research?

I like to help, I really do. But it gets really annoying when I am getting PMed in game every few minutes being asked questions about the build. Just click around and you'll find all the answers. Sometimes, after work, I just want to play the game.

Here, I'll post my most recent (hitting 97) PoB: https://pastebin.com/Rmjatwnb

Exactly what Ydoum said. Browse through the pages, some points I wrote there apply to your character as well

Thoughts on frenzy on hit vs the extra crit for attacks for the second chest mod? Has anyone tried both?

Frenzy on hit will always be better for bossing.

Admittedly I haven't done the math but frenzy charges give faster attack speed to apply poisons, 12% more hit damage, and 12% more dot damage, seems tough to beat, especially when your crit is already near capped with a diamond flask

Whereas more crits allow for higher poison multiplier with perfect agony.

Might just be better to find a gem slot for non-linked frenzy to quickly build up 3 charges.

how to you guys deal with the mana issues,
KB is like 50 mana :D, if a boss fight goes for too long (and mana flask goes empty) it feel terrible.

Mana on hit jewels. With power siphon 36 mana cost even without enchant you fire 12 projectiles, so all you need is 3 mana gained on hit to fully refund its cost each attack.

Alrighty !!
I followed Ydoum pod and damage wise it helps so much .. i need a 100c for a brutal restraint. I'm squishy at 4.4k life but ill get there

i was thinking of getting a malevolence unaffected by poison watchers eye and change one of my small cluster for another one (*% life life on hit)

for everyone with damage problem awakened gems help a truck load and luckily are super cheap !

still need a explody chest and watchers and brutal restraint but getting there!!

thank you thank you Ydoum !

Power Siphon can self-sustain without a potion just with the phys mana leech nodes.

KB does require enduring mana flask, though, and it's necessary.
