[3.12] Hasunic's Fireball/Flame Wall Ignite Trickster | Leaguestarter | CI or Hybrid | 3.5 mil DPS

So.

I am near done playing the build and it's time to move on to something else.

I REALLY enjoyed playing this and I will definently leaguestart with it next league unless there's a huge nerf.

That being said, there's a big weakness to the build. Being reliable on a single (quite rare?) unique staff is devastating if someone price fixes at a leaguestart or just post them waaaay to expensive compared to what they cost now.

I will hit almost 6.5 million Sirus dps with a combined fireball ignite and secondary burn from flame wall (with double curse from awakened curse on hit) when my awakened coh becomes level 5.



I was suggested using Anomalous Combustion support and it was indeed more damage than the regular, but not a very big deal.

I was also suggested using anomalous GMP because it yielded 20% less mana cost. So if you have mana issues, this might be a good fix for that (It reduces my cost with about 20 mana per cast). it will just cost 10% cast speed (Which i rather huge imo).

I corrupted 10 anomalous Flame wall before I got a level 21 (And I got 4 level 19, bad rng... lol) but levels on flame wall REALY boost the dps on the secondary burn..

If you are going to leaguestart I would recommend lvling flame walls in your off hands and trying to buy a level 21/20 vaal fire ball instead.

I'm still wondering if there is a scenario where you go Glancing blows + shaper shield w/ es on block. Similar to how you gear ED/C.

You could go that, but it kinda demands a very good scepter... Otherwise it's totaly possible!

Fireball does not benefit from spell damage though.

This league I'm doing freezing pulse build and its been fun, but have never done a fireball so definitely considering this for next league start (assuming no nerfs)

Can you please post your jewels as well to refer to? (not finding them elsewhere in the thread)

This build has been pretty fun so far. I haven't had enough time to do a ton of endgame, but its fun. Best part for me is using ignite prolif on giant packs, that's really satisfying.

Question, do you think Emberwake or Replica Emberwake would be a good addition to this? I am not sure I understand the ignite mechanic well enough to know, but it might be interesting?

Both versions are here: https://poedb.tw/us/Replica_Emberwake

It would boost your dps a lot, but also cut your burn a lot. It would be very hard to keep up on bosses (about replica). You would gain ignite DPS if you can keep it up (Because you lose 90% ignite duration. I think the ignite is somewhere between 2-3s right now, so that would be reduced to 0.2-0.3 sec :) )

I don't think it's worth being able to put 2 ignites on something and losing 50-65% dps. ( Normal one)

Hi hasunic,

I am follwoing your build. Currently i am lacking 3 resist atm and was wondering if theres a way to put more resist and more shield? Also, how do i get more dps

Cheers

There's some resistances nodes next to resourcefullness that grants es and resistance.

gem levels, dot multi, faster ignites, fire damage, burn damage

Thanks. Could you also, tell me what i need to improve? I know i don't have the amulet which is hunter base. Thats costly. Lol

Okay, so I'm rolling 1 scepter + shield right now, and it's pretty good.

It was extremely expensive though. I bought the base for 5 exalt (Void scepter with fractured +1 fire gems) and kept spamming scorched fossils for T1 fire damage over time multi or T1 fire damage.

When I finally had it, I tried to isolate with annulls, I failed the first couple of times.
When I was able to, I cleared suffixes and multimodded with % Fire damage / Ignite + Trigger socketed spells.

I am still deciding which spells I want in it.

The scepter ended up costing around 15 exalts and then 9.5 more exalts for a atziri's reflection.

I tried crafting a burning damage elder helmet for my flame wall, but I had to stop here.
