[3.19] DO NOT USE - Fuzzy Duckzy's Lightning Strike Raider - Great League Starter

Hello, first I want to thank for the guide, first time i reached LV 98 in poe.

Now I want to get a decent claw, but it feels like there is nothing reasonable on the trade sites (only really expensive claws for a small upgrade).

Currently I am looking for:
- 500+ EDPS
- T1/T2 Crit Chance
- T1 Attack speed

Is am I missing something here, which would get me better "bang for the buck"?
I would also craft a claw by myself if someone can get me a quick instruction?

Budget is 5-20 ex depending on if I really get good gains when I throw more currency at it.

Please feel free to look at my other gear/gems and passive tree if there is something I can fix. But my main concern is the claw right now :)


I changed auras to Determination, Herald of Ice and went with Molten Shell. Also added a cluster jewel with the usual 3 passives and a leap of faith. That put me at roughly 14 mil Shaper dps and quite good survailability.

Lethal Pride got switched to the top jewel spot with good rolls (5% Double Damage, 2x +15% to Melee Critical Strike Multiplier).

I'm very happy - seeing constant improvements on the char! Did Sirus / Shaper / Maven the first time today and those were some cool fights.

Crafting such claw shouldn't cost you more than 15 Ex.
It will be hard to have T1 Crit and speed though.
One of these 2 mod will be a crafted one similar to a T3.

To get the prefix spam Defeaning Essence of anger, Hatred or Wrath until you get another good Flat elemental damage or 2 other medium Flat elemental, this will give you the 550 eDps.
That's the hard part.

When you have the prefixes, craft Prefix cannot be changed and do a Harvest reforge Speed. it is 1/4 chance to get T1 or T2 speed.
Do it until you get the speed you want.

Then you need a free suffix to craft Crit chance.

That's really the basic way to get a correct claw for less than 20 Ex.
There are other methods but they are more complex.
So i have wasted alot of exalts to upgrade my gems
Working on getting LS 21/20 next..

LS 21/20 is only a 3.1% increase for 13-14ex.

Did you just ignore my last reply? Awakened Multistrike is less damage than Awakened Added Lightning for your gear. You spent ~24ex for a gem when a 40c gem is a better upgrade?

Enchanting your boots is a 12% damage increase for the low cost of running lab and using a Tainted Blessing.

A Bottled Faith is usually a good lategame upgrade that will give you more damage than any current gem upgrade.

Oh i did not ignore !
I'm going to change things soon so multi is fine for later (but yea now it's kinda meh i guess)..

You are right abouts boots ench but i was kinda "waiting" to get better boots to ench.. but i guess i should go for it anyway xD

Bottled Faith - interesting idea, which flask should i switch for it? sulphur right?
What can I do to further push my damage? This is without a doubt the best char I've had in all my years of playing PoE :)

It just seems weird to spend so much for something that might be an eventual upgrade but you don't know if you'll cross that threshold anytime soon. Additionally, just crossing the threshold where Woke Multi > Woke Added Lightning will not justify the cost until the difference is significantly greater.

The currency spent on Woke Multi could have gotten you 21/20 VLS, Woke Added Light, Bottled Faith, and paid a lab runner to enchant your boots for you.

And yes, replace Sulphur flask with Bottled Faith.

Besides switching to an Omni build which can eventually do 5-10x your current damage, the following gems could be upgraded:
- Anomalous Ass Mark
- Divergent Mark on Hit
- Phantasmal Ancestral Protector
- Woke Added Cold -> Woke Added Light

Other upgrades include:
- 2 damage mod Watcher's Eye
- change implicit on boots to Elusive effect and then getting higher tiers of elusive eff and action speed
- alternatively getting a double influenced boots with elusive and tailwind
- body doesn't have the strongest implicits, either better implicits like increased effect of non curse auras, specific aura effect, melee hits fortify, endurance charges per second, etc.

Claw could be improved. I'd find an alternative to use and then craft over the current fractured claw. Throw essence until you're happy with 3 high tier prefeixes then prefix can't be changed reforge speed and repeat until you get a good attack speed then craft crit multi or double damage, whichever gives you more dps.
Hey I seem kind of stuck. DPS is really low. I know I needs lots of upgrades but i dont see where i can get more damage right away that will make a difference on bosses. I just take way too long to kill anything in red maps. is there something im missing thats making my damage so much lower than others? only have about 100c to spend right now.

There's a lot you can do but I'll address the cheaper options. If there's an open prefix on helmet, craft +1 pierce there. Craft +1 pierce on glvoes and change the eater implicit to +1 pierce. Drop the pierce nodes on tree and get Marked for Death. Drop culling from totem links and put in Ancestral Warchief. If you don't build Omni then you probably want to get Aul's Uprising to make Anger free. Then you can fit in Determination since Defiance Banner is useless especially considering you have no armor on gear.

Honestly just keep farming essences and stuff so you can improve your claw. Throw them on and aim for essence ele damage, t2+ of another ele flat damage, and either attack speed or crit chance with an open suffix to craft the other. Chest is pretty bad but if you don't have currency you won't be able to get something more useful currently. Boots have no enchant, Mark of the Elder has almost low rolls for the most relevant stats and can be catalyzed for more attack. Atziri's Promise is a weak flask and should probably be a Jade Flask. Sulphur flask has no suffix and could probably be better replaced as a Silver flask.

I'm at a point where I'm just looking to maybe try my Raider tree out once I get the Flesh/Flame combo I'm looking for. Also want to craft on a +1 Frenzy shield as another improvement especially if I switch to Raider.
