Hey can someone have a look at my Guardian please. Iam at 8k Energy Shield and still getting 1 shotted :(

I miss some Block but the watchers eye with es on hit was so damn expensiv.

Greetings


Not counting flasks (since they are not always up) or Vaal skills, your armor, evasion and block are all pretty low. That is likely the reason for your one-shots.

You: 26k armor, 12k evasion, 53/65% block
Me: 41k armor, 21k evasion, 75/74% block

I've made a lot of progress and have completed Sirus, Elder, Shaper, all T16 maps, maxed atlas passives, etc. I've tried Maven and Uber elder and failed both times.

I wonder what my next improvement would be? I feel like if I swapped gloves to a rare type I'd lose dmg (Only at just over 5 million now), but gain a lot of survivability due to ES.

Not sure if determination Aegis is next step or level 4 empower or spending exalts to level to 100....

Looking for some feedback for my next improvements.

How is this difference so big. The gear seems so similiar yeah iam not using GB is worth to take it? It lowers the eff. hit pool by alot in pob.

Where do you get that much Armor and Evasion?! What am i missing?
Can someone explain me please, how does the Golden Rule jewel work? How does it double virulences? Do I gain virulences when taking damage?

Also, what about bleeding? Should I inflict bleeding to myself to gain armour or would that mean I eventually suicide?

Divergent HOA, Empower lvl4, make sure you have 60 virulences, change out awakened splash (for multistrike) and pierce (for vile toxins) on single target (ie boss). Those are the basic changes, all other options covered in the guide.



Thank you, i have 60 virulences but so hard to hit it, most of the time i only get 30ish because the lightning ball is so hard to cast. should i switch to vortex?


So, most of your damage should be coming from the crawler and not ball lightning. I see tail spike (main one for crawler) at 4m DPS with 60 viru, 15 withered and 8 stacks on poison on enemy. There's probably some other settings to get more accurate, but I'm not an expert at POB.

I see you have 100% chance to poison, make sure you are using storm brand on single targets to help get more viru on them quickly. Without hitting 60 viru you are going to lose a ton of damage (down to 1m for you at 30 viru). Your problem isn't uncommon with the build, just need to adjust to a style that fits for you and maxes out those virulences.

Personally I prefer to use cyclone for mapping and storm burst for single target. Takes an extra second to switch, but storm burst gets me to 60 viru almost instantly.


Thank you, I am making better progress now understanding how this work. one thing I still stumble is during long boss fight, all spider are gone and I am trying to create them but everyime I created worm, the crawler always kill it before i can kill it, is there a trick to do this?

That's one of the advantages of using stormburst and cyclone, nearly guaranteed that you'll kill them.

With the standard build, just drop your storm brand behind you then spam ball lightning forward as you pop the flask. That should give you a really high chance of hitting the worms.

Also, if you take snipers mark off of cast while stunned and self cast it you can ensure that you're recharging that flask the whole fight.

I use Monik's version: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3019705/page/334#p24447710

Triad grips grant armor. I also use molten shell (with all the increases it adds about 6k armor).

On evasion I only have it on my boots, which I use because I use channeling skills (cyclone and stormburst) instead of the standard fast cast ball lightning. Most comes from auras (grace).

I also have defiance banner (anomalous) which increases armor and evasion by 59%.

It also appears (could just be POB) that your gems are all lacking in quality.

Anytime you hit an enemy with poison (or bleed) you gain poison (or bleed) on yourself. You gain virulence any time you afflict something, to include yourself) with poison. So, you hit a mob, it gets poisoned (+1 viru) and you get poisoned (+1 viru) = 2 viru for each mob you poison.

No, you do not want to make yourself bleed.
Thanks for the fast replies.

Yeah some of the gems lack quality i mostly have it on the damage gems. The auras just increase the area dont they? I cant fit the molten shell in because i lack the determination on the shield its too expensiv for me. The cyclone version looks really decent too but also 4 white triad gloves are a bit far away. I already put some currency in this build mostly the watchers eye and amulet.
