Hello there,

Started this build on SSF. Was lucky for the helm enchant so I want to push it further. The transcendent mind is WIP just waiting for the altar

But actually, I'm wondering where I should go next. Cluster jewel? Survivability is still kind of "meh", random one-shots occurs often if I don't perma respect the enemies.
Any tips?
Have also to craft my iolite ring and apothecary gloves for the extra 23% chaos damage and 23 dmg over time implicits.

Hi! I come up with my variation of Bane Occultist build. What's so special about it you ask? Well.. you can go through endgame (including Sirus encounters) with 1-2ex budget! Also keeping decent map clearspeed.

Hello Cie, currently following your build about a week, and very happy with this result (im newb starter player here but ever once play poe at 2014-2015)

as now i got not much problem, everything dies in 1-2s, my current hp about 4,6k.. bane tooltips damage about 155k with arcane surge (maybe i got no problem because my map only t5 lol, never got high tier map)

Can you help check my char, what next to upgrading? a belt or accesories, or other any suggestion?

Hi, I'm glad build worked out for you! I can't see your profile because it's set as "private". Your damage is pretty low to be honest though! It should be around 400k on ~1ex budget :P

Here are some links for items which boosts damage the most:

Tabula Rasa +2 AoE gems (20 chaos):
https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Ultimatum/REM7zgs7

Helmet with Bane increased damage implicit (40 chaos):
https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Ultimatum/7nYl45ru5

Bane 21/23 (25 chaos):
https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Ultimatum/4KdzavH9

Those items should boost your damage almost twice :P I can only advice you to buy items from budget PoB. They're pretty cheap so you can get them fast and enjoy PoE endgame experience: https://pastebin.com/qdLc2a1G

If you still have any questions feel free to ask!

ah my bad, looks like its private by default, i've just open my profile.


yeah im just moving from tabula to skin of the loyal

helmet using 30% despair effect as your suggestion


i've change a passive tree a little bit to more dps, hp going to 4,2k but i dunno why damage still 190k-ish

*my ascendancy still at the third, still working to find the latest circle at the fourth

Well, my dude. If you add your characters tree and gear to my configuration it shows 600k DPS and with uberlab 700k DPS so you have almost twice damage than budget version :P Not mentioning your Skin of Loyal which is pretty sick for this build.

For now just change flask setup - you need only ONE life flask and Jade Flask is useless on this build. Get Quartz Flask, Quicksilver Flask, Rumis Flask and Cinderswallow flask with "chance to avoid stun".

Also you can put on some belt with life and resistances.

With those you can easily beat Sirus A8 and other endgame content like Guardians and T16 Ultimatums. Just remember to copy flask setup because flasks are main source of survivability on this build :D your damage is fine!

Hi there, many thanks to share the build.

I am also very new to POE and looking to move gradually. Currently at level 51 and in Part 2 Act 6. It seems i have no way to progress due to weak gear and low damage.

There was a few things that i wasnt very sure about, appreciate if you can shed some lights.

For Items upgrade, how would you normally prioritize? I was thinking to get the Tabusu Armour and than like the post you mentioned above to be able to give more damage.

For Skills wise, i was actually quite confused as i saw that there were some videos which lists other skills actually. I was actually following the skill tree very closely from the first post.

Any suggestion for farming of gears and skills confirmation will be great. I do understand that better way is to actually purchase, but i was checking out my inventory and seems i couldn't afford the orbs.
