Any advice for scaling DPS past this point while increasing survivability? I'm OK at scaling DPS, but bad at scaling defenses.

36M per 5x mines

- Looked into petrified blood, this requires dropping Rathpith that I know of. Not a great option with where I'm at.

- Reservation to run Grace + Hatred is hard to get to without using arrogance support. More tattoos are possible, but really cutting down on my stats is making gear swaps difficult.

- Looked at swapping to 6L Vic's with +2 Aura/+2 Trap, however, dropping shroud reports a DPS loss due to life loss from abyss stacking.

I'd like to be able to do delirium safely to a degree and cut back on one-shots. Would like to work in Chaos res via boots and gloves so I can run chaos dmg while flask active altars without consequence.

Not sure if there's an easy solution or if I need to do a complete re-build to achieve this.

Every profile I look at on poeninja will run my budget dry for small gains and doesn't solve dying.

Replica Dragonfangs (15-18), Watcher's Eye w/ Crit Mult/Hatred effect (5-8), Awakened enhance (9), Bottled Faith (4)

Really enjoying the build and not looking to invest in building something else to achieve this goal.

This is what I'm at currently. Without flasks I'm sitting at ~37m DPS with Zealotry and ~31m DPS if I swap to Grace. Possibly going to make a swap to a +4 Victario's and change up a quite a few other things when I get some more currency. That could push me closer to 50m DPS.

I'm running a small reservation cluster along with a Replica Dragonfang so I'm able to run 3 auras right now. If I want DPS, I run Hated + Zealotry + Skitterbots. When mapping I swap out the Zealotry for Grace. About to hit 99 and I think I only had one death this entire level but that's because I was looking away from my screen. When I make the swap I can also fit in more chaos res pretty easily.

One thing to note with yours is that I believe your DPS is incorrect. Setting to 5 mines would accurate when using Minefield rather then Swift Assembly, but I could be wrong, since this is probably my first time ever running mines.

You have a thread of hope but you didn't pick up Whispers of Doom. Pick that up and throw Elemental Weakness into your Arcanist Brand link and you'll get a bit DPS increase for single target.

I do think a lot of the upgrades you'd want for more DPS will cost a fair bit of currency and won't generally be more than a 1-2m DPS increase but there are a few of those that can be made that will add up.


Done some upgrades based off your ideas, the small cluster/hatred etc but have no idea how you end up with 37m DPS am I missing something?

Dropped rare amulet for replica dragonfang, more res tattoos/jewels to fit zealotry, can't afford your watchers eye yet but apart from that I don't see much difference but my POB has very different dps. You mentioned adding elemental weakness but don't have it in your pob.

Took another look at POB I posted and definitely was misconfigured. I haven't played much the last few days but I did change quite a bit around in my build.

I've added more damage, ailment immunity. I lost some suppression which I can make up with in tattoos but I've just not bothered with it since I haven't been on much. It should be configured correctly this time which would be ~75m DPS per throw with minefield which doesn't account for Nimis. I can easily take it to ~80m if I went to lvl 100 and picked up another jewel socket. I also think I can change my large cluster but don't really have a reason to with this amount of damage at this point.

Keep in mind that if I disable the Arcanist brand Sniper's Mark/Ele Weakness, I lose like 30m DPS.

This is my current POB but flasks can also be changed. Again, haven't bothered with it:

If you feel like you're lacking damage then I would definitely suggest getting Nimis as well

1. 15% icicle mine throwing speed
2. 30% icicle crit multi (dps wise about the same as throwing speed, but throwing speed makes the build feel so much better)

really appreciate it man thanks i bought the multi helmet +1 power i will change it to speed then thanks again cheers.
With This Post i want to give players some insight into my Leaguestart with this Build and hope it will help some of you in any way :)

I started with this Build in 3.22 and it was a Blast.
Campaign was an absolute breeze, just get some wands and craft flat Added DMG to Spells and use the Gems of the given PoB from our master ;)
Bosses were sometimes a bit tricky if you have to move a lot but still very easy.
After the Campaign i had found like 10 Chaos from this i bought a Bitterdream for 7 Chaos that thing carried me all the way to red maps on Day 1.
After i farmed a bit more currency (Just Do Red Altars + anything you like to farm, you will get enough)i bought a Heatshiver for 70c and Mutewind Boots for 3C on Day 2 thats all you really need to do T16 Maps
So I'm now Day 2 doing T16 Maps with invest of 80C xD thats absolutely crazy, never had such a good Leaguestart.
Rest of my gear was just Things that dropped from my maps.

Mapping was so easy because you just kill or freeze everything.
Later i bought a +5 March of the Legion (Not Corrupted) for like 5c with good rolls and god rid of my Bitterdream.
Because of this upgrade, you can throw much more mines because it's not a 7-Link anymore so your mines won't cost a Ton of Mana anymore.
I just bought some Fractured +1 To all Cold Spells Rune-Daggers (On and Offhand) Base with fracture was like 2c on day2 that's nothing.
Then i used some low Tier Essence for +% to Spell Crit and hoped for some Flat + DMG to Spells
and if you are lucky you have a free Suffix you should craft Mine Throwing Speed.
Later i just got a Lucky vaal on my March of the Legion and hit +2 Projectile Corruption :)

First Big Upgrades i Bought were a Shroud for 2 Divine with 2 Abyssal Sockets, and a Darkness Enthroned with 90% Abyss Sockets for 1 Divine
Than Stacked a Bunch of Hypnotic Abyssal Jewels to get the %Penetration and % Life going.

After i farmed some more Currency i switched to the Rathpith + Dessolution Variant + the Thread of Hope Jewel at the Top of our tree to get the Additional Curse and other benefitial Nodes.
So My Build was "complete" on Wednesday in Week 1 so is Started to really farm and bought no upgares until i farmed my HH which i had 1 Week Later on Wednesday in Week 2 :)


I really want to thank you for this awesome Build Guide, it felt so good i was so far Ahead of my Guild Mates like i was never before.
They struggled with their impending doom, LA and Boneshatter Builds in low white maps while i was Blasting through T16 Without much Problems xD
From now on i want to Start every League with this Build if it's still viable in the Future.
For eveyone that wants so try this Build, do it, it's just awesome.


You can still find my Gear + Character in my Profile (PeteLT) This was all the Gear i had to farm a HH.

One of, if not the best builds for investment cost I’ve ever played. Baring significant future nerfs, this will definitely be my go-to league starter moving forward. 10/10
