Why do we take "Pain Attunement"? What am I missing? We want to be at full life.

Pain Attunement transforms to https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Inner_Conviction when we socket in Militant Faith Jewel in the jewel slot just below it.

Also I decided to record my first Shaper run of the league even though its only my 3rd or 4th time fighting him ever. It was done on awakening 5 if that even counts towards his hp. Having a lot of fun with the build so far so decided to do a small showcase of me being shit at poe while doing shaper, also sorry for the clicky sounds of my keyboard forgot about the open mic part.

Oh and thanks bhwung for answering my random questions about the build, in game.

I see, I didn't know how timeless jewels work. Is Militant Faith really so good for us? I am scared that I will buy wrong and it will change my destructive apparatus. Unfortunately Divine Orb changes name (Dominus) too.

You don't need it, it's just for 9 to 12% more damage depending on how many power charges you use. You can just use a regular jewel with life and damage.

Very nice! After the first long detonation try to throw at least twice and detonate once instead of throw detonate throw detonate. You'll get better damage that way.

It's the same thing with pyroclast, the chain will get quicker and quicker until it cannot rearm fast enough or you throw so fast they start overwriting the old mines. It's not as easy to tell as pyroclast since pyroclast starts lagging like crazy, but it's work as far as I can tell.

I tried it with pyroclast - it works, chain goes on. But when i swapped gem to Ball lightning - after first detonation chain ends. I think it is bug.

I'm still trying to memory muscle my brain to press the right buttons for this build, played 4 different builds this league so it's all wonky lol. But thank you for another tip! I've read the playstyle section as well,its just me rushing/forgetting to press the right things at the right time.

I talked to windz, and he said the rearm time is different for ball lightning and chaining them like they're pyroclast mines isnt possible. We will never have long chains like pyros do.

Yeah, I think I saw your question in the YouTube comments and Windz's reply. The thing about it is that if you watch Windz's videos on his Ball Lightning Miner, you'll see that he actually spams the detonate mines button. Not too much, but he does hit it quite often.

However, if you read the Blastchain and High-Impact Mines gems, it basically says there is an increase in damage per mine detonated in sequence, so .. not sure.. heh.. I was spamming the detonate mines button, but I think I'll wait a bit from now on.. Besides, spamming my key doesn't help my keyboard's 'life expectancy'...

Edit: Btw bhwung, I don't see your Thread of Hope jewel in your current tree? You also stopped at Acrobatics and haven't taken Phase Acrobatics?

Any plans on updating the leveling PoB in order to reflect the changes done on your profile?

It would be greatly appreciated if you could, I understand if you don't feel like it as well. :)

Seriously, I was waiting for a good lightning ball miner guide, this is it.
