I just started this build. When I check my POB, it is saying my Crit is 0. Why is this? Also, I feel like my ES is so low. Any ideas for a big jump?

This is pure gold, 10/10 thanks for sharing. If you want some actual advice, you can either (a) vendor all your items and pick a different build or (b) take a look at your items, then read the guide, and then follow the guide.

I am new to POE (this is my second league) and there is still a lot that I am trying to figure out and understand. I went out on a limb to try a new build, and as I said, I just started this. I read this guide, and still can't understand why I see 0 crit. Also, regrading ES, I know how to increase, but 3 times what I currently have seems out of reach. In all the POE forums, the community has been helpful and understanding. Instead your chose to discourage and be a jerk. I can't understand why someone would take the time to write something nasty to someone else just for the hell of it.

I try to help people that actually make an effort. I have made plenty of posts on here to help people seeking crafting advice or on their specific builds, and in game too.

You however, have made zero effort. Have you actually looked at any of the items that you have? Let me know when you have.
How to get double defense in the helmet? Just alterations + augment or there is actually a harvest method?

The easiest method is to roll for high ES first. Both influence mods that you want are trivial to obtain, and just require a couple of aug/remove colds and aug remove/add crits.

You can spam defence reforge and/or dense fossils for high ES rolls, the other rolls do not matter. Alternatively, you can alternation spam for T1 ES or ES%. Regal, bench craft hybrid ES and harvest craft remove non-def add def, and hope you hit a high ES roll. I have not tried this second method, but it sounds like it will be a lot cheaper overall.

You have resolute technique on your cospri. This is why you can't crit.

The big jump is on your armor, on average, you want to get over 500, so you are missing double on that. 250.

But it's a combination of most of your items. gloves and helm and shield average at 300. The belt makes a big difference, get a crystal belt with the % to ES.

I would start with your body and belt first, then helm and gloves. The shield will be hard, because you want reserve mana and spell block on that one.

Hope that helps.

Guys I need some advice against sirus a8 setup. Is there anything you change? For example do we need the increased area of effect with herald of ice against sirus or can I change that to a cwdt immortal call setup? Any other changes I should be doing against him? I already have a corrupted blood jewel. I assume we need to switch our awakened added cold gem to increased critical strikes since we cant sustain our bottled faith the whole fight? Thanks in advance.

I don't change anything and find him really easy with this build. I have been offering carry services on +300 ping and its fine.

The only flask I use during the initial phases is bottled faith (one use every time he drops down), which sustains itself fine. Then when the last phase starts I pop all the flasks and hes dead before he can do much. If anything I would switch out cinderswallown urn for another flask.
What is meant by - "as we are assassin our crit will be 100%".

At level 96, my critical on cyclone is 68 % with 7 power charges.
Can someone explain this ?


Should I take a node which gives crit chance ????

Try reading.

"The next important stat is Critical Strike Chance. As an assassin the crit chance of ice nova is easily going to reach 100%. However, we still need to invest in sources of crit for cyclone"

You can take either a watcher's eye with hatred flat crit, or flat crit on your chest.
