So what is going on with the glancing blows side? Thread no longer allocates it

I play with it currently. Does not seem too bad ^^

For lifebuild just go dodge route. That's how i started before switched to CI

Im still torn on whether its worth ~6 points to get glancing blows, its pretty steep. Im standard only so some of my gear is above par, and so far without glancing blows I dont seem to die any more than usual. In situations with lots of mobs I am immortal simply because of cinderswallow + ES leech + ES on hit Eye, but I have most of my trouble fighting 100% deli bosses in simulacrum or maps where there might be no mobs. I dont even do sirus because I just dont know the mechanics enough nor do I do enough regular mapping to spawn him frequently.

Another problem with this version of the build is that it really falls apart without flasks - no cinderswallow means no onslaught, which drops you considerably below the coc threshold; no wise oak means a loss of 20% pen on a build that only gets maybe another 20-30% naturally; no rumis means insignificant block even with GB; no diamond/bottled faith means your crit is severely gimped. Even against chilled enemies with a 1.8 base crit hatred eye, 0.5 base crit pure talent, 1.5 base attack crit chest, 8 power charges, I still dont have capped crit against a single target, unless theyre on full or no life thanks to A&A (I play the more mapping oriented version with 2 vast power/magnifier med clusters, and another cluster setup with evil eye/master of fear). A COC build that cant crit consistently is a dead build, and since even with close to perfect gear we arent instant-phasing bosses, we cant rely on flasks to carry our damage.

The build is a god tier mapper - nothing comes close except fire BV assassin (which barely scrapes 5-6k EHP with no other defences), poison BV assassin (which is unsatisfying and DOT based), and assassin autobomber (which forgoes all single target in favour of fastest possible mapping). The combination of ~4 base crit for explode chest and HOI means they chain exceptionally well, especially with our hatred and cold scaling along with crit and AOE - its very synergistic in a way that other builds struggle to compete with. I can add a pob if people are interested in my version :)

very nice build
enjoy in 3.12

Due to assassin's mark no longer being a thing on rings my second curse is elemental weakness through the ring and frostbite through vortex,however when i looked on poe.ninja nobody else was using a ele weak ring, why?

This build need an update.

How is the defense and dps on boss in 3.12 ?

Could you please link your character in 3.12 when you enjoy the build ? Need to see what you did :)

.

I have pretty strong gear for current state of league and yes only bad thing with the nerfs is that boss damage is not greatest. Did fail my first uber elder but done sirius on awakener 7 with current gear.

Now i am thinking about getting awakened hextouch (use both curses from here) or assasin's mark ring just because of boss damage

Been playing with CB and honestly it does not feel that big of a nerf from last league

It's interesting to watch on poe.ninja about the build and there is no real meta going on. A lot of stuff still to figure out with current patch :D

Hello!

I had a question.

On the cospri, why are we using 2 spells? Doesn't it mean that it alternates cast? Wouldn't it be better to use frostbolt + a support?

I am very curious and want to understand this part, a lot of people go with 2 spells but I don't know why.

Hey Guys, as of some question ingame and the forum, I'm not sure atm what the best Tree and Gear would be for the build. Mostly in terms Glancing Blow, if its still worth to pick it up, or just drop it and take more ES instead. Also now we dont have stun immune from Jewel implict, so we have to use cinderswallow and probably the medium cluster. Just gonne wait till some people pop up on poe.ninja and when I got my budget.

So atm If somebody is interested, I'm playing a LL Version of the build with plenty of dps and still some good defences
