[3.22] Ice Spear CoC Pathfinder (Mahuxotl's Machination) - 160M DPS ,Tanky , All Contents
 The general ice spear coc of Pathfinder is good, however it's dangerous without leeching. And damage over time is so deadly. That's why I am looking for a better defense mechanism. Here is the answer: Mahuxotl's Machination + Tempered by War + Pathfinder. Before you read this guide, you should understand the mechanism, which is not fresh in POE. You could see the video from midmax below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lR7-aa6YF7c&t=97s&ab_channel=midmax Defend Layer 1. We transform all elemental damage into Fire damage and Chaos Damage, so we only need to focus on fire resistance and chaos resistance. The maximum fire resistance is 88% and maximum chaos resistance is 85%, so it's really safe. 2. We also transform physical damage to fire damage through Cloak of Flame, Helmet and Prismatic jewel to avoid physical damage since we don't use determination. [Attention!] Don't Use Lightning Coil or other physical damage taken as lightning or cold damage since we can only transform damage once. You will endure whole damage as lightning or cold damage with your negative resistance. 3. 100% Spell Suppression + Purity of Elements. 4. Progenesis Flask + Petrified Blood Video(All ubers showcase) Pro's & Con's + High Clear Speed + Tanky(Can tank almost everything) + All contents and melt boss easily - You need to press life flask every 3.5s. (No life flask, no mana, no tanky) - No elemental reflect Path of Building

Fractured Suppress Spell Damage Mana Efficiency Essence Roll Strength, Intelligence , Chaos Resistance. For Aisling reveal: +2AOE will be best, and you can put your aura here. Fractured Suppress Spell Damage Chaos Resistance Essence Roll Strength, Intelligence For Aisling reveal: Projectiles Pierce An Additional Target (You can easily use bench craft) Fractured Suppress Spell Damage Chaos Resistance Essence Roll Strength, Intelligence We need cooldown and maximum fire resistance here.

Reduced flask charges used increased flask effect duration Cooldown recovery (necessary!) It's really hard to sustain all your flask, however you need to sustain your Sulphur flask and Amethyst flask which is much easier. Check your flask uptime on POB. QA How much cooldown recovery and APS do I need?
Spoiler
attack speed<10.1ApS
cooldown recovery>52% Last edited by hank95459876#2628 on Oct 22, 2023, 7:34:51 PM Last bumped on Dec 27, 2023, 7:07:49 AM

Ohhhh wow build looks super interesting! Was originally going to convert my MF Deadeye to be a Pathfinder Reap but this looks like a good alternative option <3
How much did it cost you in total though? "For we are not now that strength, which in old days moved Earth and Heaven. That which we are, we are; one equal strength of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will: to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." - Ulysses, Tennyson

Around 300D
If you don't maximize your gear like +1+2 double corrupt, it's not really expensive. |

" The price isn't bad <3 Okay sounds good~ Will convert my Deadeye to this soon after I get enough currency~ Will read more into the PoB "For we are not now that strength, which in old days moved Earth and Heaven. That which we are, we are; one equal strength of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will: to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." - Ulysses, Tennyson

Just how important is the Increased Flask Recovery Rate for the build to function? Can we do without it in the belt?
Also, why is Precision set at level 10? Is it for a higher health pool from reservation? "For we are not now that strength, which in old days moved Earth and Heaven.

Increased Flask Recovery is not that important, instead increased flask effect is much better.
We have hits can't be evaded, and my critical strike chance with cyclone is already 100%. Yes , it's for higher health pool. Remember to reach 50% so your Pain Attunement could work. Last edited by hank95459876#2628 on Oct 25, 2023, 10:31:43 PM

" Ahhhh awesome got it <3 I'm almost done with my build, I got everything nailed down expect I just need to get lucky with my RNG on the Makanui tattoo for the pain attunement keystone (Wouldn't wanna spend those 4 points trying to get it normally) "For we are not now that strength, which in old days moved Earth and Heaven.

Btw!! I got to finally use the build~
It's working really splendidly, though I do notice that during the intermission phase of bosses, the life flask uptime is disrupted, so was thinking of sacrificing some of the tattoos that benefit the marks for flask duration?

I recommend you to use the Pantheon "Soul of Ryslatha" ,which you can easily recover your life flask during intermission phase.
Flask duration can't increase the duration of life flask, and you need around 200% effect of flask duration to reach 100% uptime of your Dying Sun. If you want to become more tanky, you can change your tattoo to Naturalist which increase life recovery from flasks. |

Oh that's fair! Will try just that! <3 Thanks~
Overall, really loving the build! "For we are not now that strength, which in old days moved Earth and Heaven. That which we are, we are; one equal strength of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will: to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." - Ulysses, Tennyson Last edited by Cowrex#0143 on Oct 29, 2023, 12:40:50 PM
