⛵☁️[3.25] The Arachnophobia Allstars| Chaos Guardian CI|The dirty Scorpion-tail|Herald of Agony 150M+

nice build, i'm saving some currency to change my items to monik390 version to farm simulacrum xD, the aegis aurora shield with grace is very expansive, so im taking out chance to poison and using septic spells....

Meanwhile, Sirus a9: https://youtu.be/JV5FiW6gZPE

Nothing special.
The last phase is cancer, as always.
The build is as decent, as always.

Also done Oshabi, but she isn't worth mentioning.

After I've done simulacrums, feared, and flawless breakstone, I can't feel difficulty in any other content.

Delve somehow boring af for me, but I'd probably still do it.

100 again! Congratulations to TankyTankyTanky!

Fullblock, Iron reflexes, with only 7k es nice stepping into 100 - that is tankyyyy!

Armoouuuur: 140000, hehe, with 2800 on block it's almost immortal, yes.

Arachnophilia!!

I have a handful of EX and a good chunk of chaos now at my disposal...are there any items I can realistically upgrade at this point?

do i need to move skill points around on the tree? whats my next step

https://pastebin.com/6xhL17ce

EDIT: did shaper for the first time on this build, and i felt like my damage output was nowhere near where it needed to be

EDIT 2: I have an aul's/grace has no res......but i cant use it since if i take off my current neck i'll lose too much attributes and wont be able to use alot of my armor

EDIT 3: grabbed a divergent HoA, but my POB isnt showing it for some reason

I started to farm simulacrums when my build was at this stage:

https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3019705/page/304#p24413776

Simulacrum 30/30 requirements:

- Stun immunity/interruption avoidance.
- All ele ailment immunity/avoidance/reduced duration. Purity of elements.
- <Ghost Dance> or <Iron Reflexes max block without glancing blows>.
- At least 10m dps.
- Flasks according to added damage on the wave (i.e. ruby flask if monsters deal 90% extra physical as fire). Priority: Fire > Lightning > Cold.
- 100% curse reduction.
- Pantheons: full Solaris/Abberath

1) Stop using that overloaded pob. Too much noise there.

This: lvl94, clean, optimized, and fixed with everything below added: https://pastebin.com/guXGGT9b

2) Better belt (in pob I added some 50c belt): https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Scourge/YQMVqgbcY

3) Aul's fit in. (in pob with no charisma, but anoint it for vile toxins instead of the pierce on bosses).

+30 dex node still required tho. You can fix with by getting circles like this:



4) Purity of Elements (my choice) or whatever you want. Resists fixed.
Get rid of that focking phase run already.

5) Small clusters: Self-control instead of Sublime Form and mana efficiency instead of armour in Uncompromising cluster.

6) Jewel socket. Watcher's or pure agony. Remove 2 mana points for pure agony.

With a8-a9, all bosses become a bit tougher. And if shaper is witnessed by maven on top of that, it becomes quite a hard boss fight.

Also, there are too many factors for sustaining max dps output in this build:

1. Spiders.
2. Virulence.
3. Offering.
4. Mark.

There is a reason why I'm not using mark and offering on the cast when stunned.
If smth missing - dps lowers quite a lot.

If anyone has the time could they take a look at my build so far and offer some suggestions. FYI I am by no means rich.

Having some trouble getting leveling past 95 due to getting one shot. Might just need to do safer maps but it happens enough that I stay at about 10%-20% xp.

I like full block without glancing blows, I do need more ailment mitigation in the tree like the 20% avoidance.

My damage just doesn't stack up in boss fights. I can only maintain about 40 virulences in a boss fight. I need better gloves but have been unlucky with my crafting.

I noticed in a previous post the change to cyclone, does this maintain as many stacks as two storm brands?

Another thing I noticed was the unbound ailments on spiders which I think I will try out if I can afford the gem.

I feel like something is staring me in the face that I am missing. Im not very experienced so any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Since you are using the default and a bit outdated version with memory vault/iron reflexes, wait for Chromino to wrap things up about gear.

Cyclone is exclusively mapping skill, switched for storm burst for bosses on 4-link of endgame gloves - Triad Grip with 4 white sockets:

Cyclone/Storm Burst - Awakened cast while channeling - Chance to Poison - Ball lightning.

Unbound Ailments is a lot stronger than minion damage support for spiders, also it offers better uptime of those.

P.s. Are you using Orb of Storms in gloves on bosses too? It can't get you maximum virulence on a single target.

The build is using Ball Lightning by default. And your gloves are literally made for Ball Lightning.
You can't replace it with anything besides a storm burst, which is a bossing skill exclusively.

P.s.s. Ignoring molten shell in the build which benefits it the most isn't a good choice. You miss a lot damage mitigation here.

Wow thanks for the quick reply. That was super helpful.

I think I will drop clarity for vaal molten shell.

I will swap out minion damage for unbound ailments.

I have been using orb of storms plus two storm brands for bossing. Going to check out stormburst.

Swapped to ball of lightning. No idea why I thought orb or storms was the right skill. So much better stacking

alriiiiight alright lol. i got rid of phase run, got aul's equipped, updated ring, boots, helm, and some gems. made the changes to the clusters, and most of the POB. for mapping/delve things definitely feel better. need to take it on a boss run and really see where im at now

Hey so I've been working on this build for the last week or so after switching from aura bot and I'm just wondering if anyone had any tips or pointers where I should go from what I got so far.
I play Hardcore so items are a lot harder to get or almost impossible to get sadly.
I had to self craft a lot of it including chest,ring,amulet,belt ect
I have an empower that's almost level 3 I'll switch the added fire damage for, I still need higher Ilvl flasks ect just trying to find the best ways to tweak it to not die xD
I'm running T16s but havent tried sirus or and shaper guardians ect yet.
I'd like to push to 100 if I had time / don't die xD

not sure if im allowed to post my poe ninja or just look at my profile ( oldmandoesthethings )
would appreciate any feed back <3
