[3.17] Brainstorming League Starter for Eventual Autobomber
|
IN PROGRESS.
Previous build guides: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2869658 Creating this to document my thought process. My ultimate goal is to transition into Herald of Thunder Autobomber Assassin, so I'm playing Shadow class (I only want to level once). League starters I'm considering:
Self-cast Ice Nova Assassin
* I played this in Metamorph league (Lv 98 Assassin, 40/40) before Cluster Jewels existed. * Ice Nova + Frostbolt + Spell Echo/Greater Spell Echo is a fun mechanic. *
Ice Trap Saboteur
* About ~42% damage buff at level 20 and added effectiveness buff.
* Cluster Traps nerf was pretty big. Assuming it was 1.92 (0.64x3) multiplier with shotgun, now Swift Assembly (1.6x multiplier at lv 20) provides more DPS on paper. If you were to replace Cluster Traps with Swift Assembly, then it would be (1.92-1.6)/1.92 = 1/6 less damage. * 1.42 x (1 - 1/6) = 1.183, so overall, it's 20%+ buff taking the damage effectiveness buff. I think it's a strong starter.
Poison Spectral Helix Assassin
* Jungroan's guide video was quite appealing. I have not played a poison build, so this sounds fun. Also, it's extremely efficient for the budget. * Nightblade, Spectral Helix * Withering Step: Two parts. First, it applies Withered debuff for more damage. Second, it applies Elusive, which is then cancelled when you use a skill. This allows Nightblade to apply Elusive right away, effectively removing the tail-end of Elusive before you can start a fresh Elusive buff.
Gem link setup
TODO: 6L main
Auras/Herald/Banner
* People want Grace + Determination + Defiance Banner. * I TODO: Movement TODO: Curse Plague Bearer - Increased AoE - Empower (can use 4th link to give another gem Empower bonus) PoB at Lv 92: https://pastebin.com/93t7ywVG PoB at Lv 96 with Headhunter: https://pobb.in/vdn9zeQrrFs3 PoB at Lv 98: https://pobb.in/aYW88qoxhc53 First fight vs. The Searing Exarch: https://youtu.be/9EaQIuZBEPg First fight vs. The Eater of Worlds: https://youtu.be/DM_VaBXXZpM Uber Elder (Maven witness): https://youtu.be/onzTc4M-HHQ Build guide compilation: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2869658 Ritual, Harvest, Delirium, Metamorph, Legion, Betrayal, Abyss 40/40 Breach: 36/40 D: Last edited by Carrotizer#6989 on Feb 27, 2022, 9:14:55 PM Last bumped on Mar 4, 2022, 11:36:38 PM

PoE Ninja for Autobomber: https://poe.ninja/challenge/builds/char/Carrotizer/Carrotizer_Archnemesis
Q: Why Assassin and not Elementalist? A: I think Assassin is better for crit-based autobomber. Also I personally prefer Assassin. Fitting The Annihilating Light & Crystallized Omniscience Defensive: Pantheon * Major: Lunaris * * Minor: Gruthkul * 5% Physical Reduction * Enemies that hit you recently have 8% reduced attack speed. Changes since Ritual (3.13): * Support gems were nerfed * Triggers cost mana (CwDT purposes) Requirements: Lone Messenger prevents Things that still work: * Bestiary Aspects * Arctic Armour (grants Freeze Immunity) Elemental Ailment * Arctic Armour * 20% from Elusive belt enchant * 35% from Deafening Loathing essence on boots * 32% from Eater of Worlds implicit * 87%, so 15% from Jewel implicits can provide 100% prevention with Elusive. Physical Mitigation & Guard Skill Immortal Call vs Steelskin Immortal Call -> need to get Enduring Composure and +1 Endurance Charge Lv 1 23 Quality (cooldown won't be as effective if it conflicts with CwDT) CwDT - Immortal Call Lv 3 23Q (normal) - Increased Duration - Divergent Purifying Flame (consecrated ground + 5% increased damage taken) Mana sustain * 25% Reduced mana cost suffix on flask + Mageblood * 18% Reduced mana cost boots enchant * Helm enchant + Unnatural Instinct for HoT reservation * Enlighten for Aspect + Arctic Armour Build guide compilation: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2869658 Ritual, Harvest, Delirium, Metamorph, Legion, Betrayal, Abyss 40/40 Breach: 36/40 D: Last edited by Carrotizer#6989 on May 10, 2022, 8:38:34 PM

Crafting explode chest
Regular suffix mod pool total weight = 67200 Crusader suffix mod pool total weight = 3250 Regular prefix mod pool total weight = 56250 Crusader prefix mod pool total weight = 2625 Chance to get crusader suffix from aug = 3250/(67200+3250) ~= 0.0461 Chance to NOT get Crusade suffix from aug = 0.9539 Approximating chancce to get Crusader affix from Regal after failed Augment ~= 0.05 ~1300 Alts + Augs (and some Regals here and there) Imprint, then Annul hoping to remove suffix for next step. Took 2 tries. Craft Prefixes cannot be changed and Imprint Reforge Critical #1: 1 empty prefix & 1 empty Suffix. Can beastcraft "Add suffix & Remove prefix" to 50/50 annul non-influence prefix. Beastcraft success: Pray & Orb of Dominance: Awakener Orb:
Crafting Elusive boots
Bought Elevated Elusive boots for 2 Exalt (friend pointed out someone probably tried to elevate Onslaught mod). Craft Prefixes cannot be changed + scour to make it into magic. Craft Prefixes cannot be changed again and Imprint. Ideal suffixes from Reforge Chaos: * T1 Chaos Resistance * T1 Dex * T1 Int * T1 Spell Suppression Reforge Chaos #1: * T1 Cold Resist and some dexterity, but the resist is overkill unfortunately. Looking for higher dex/int rolls. Reforge Chaos #2: Reforge Chaos #3: Yikes. Each imprint beast costs 0.5 exalt. Elemental ailment: * Freeze immunity: Anomalous Arctic Armour * Chill immunity: Veiled prefix from boots * Shock immunity: Charge mastery (cannot be shocked while at max Power Charges) Build guide compilation: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2869658 Ritual, Harvest, Delirium, Metamorph, Legion, Betrayal, Abyss 40/40 Breach: 36/40 D: Last edited by Carrotizer#6989 on Mar 17, 2022, 1:32:18 AM
