3.25: Dominating Blow Summoner Guide;1-Button/Chill; Consistent dmg and tanky
Introduction
Hey there,I am Tim and I have played Poe for more then 10 years. I focus on mapping and have done a lot of selfmade builds over the years. I dont really care about Bossing like uber maven etc. I prefer creating my own builds which mostly automate the experience since I care about Wrist health and I like to watch shows while playing etc. Therefore I've created a Build where you can pretty much afk sprint down maps. While only Clicking 1 Button. (Very unusual for Minion Builds ! :D) Furthermore: This build specificially doenst incorporate any ultra expensive key items etc. It should therefore be pretty easy to follow and continually upgrade it. You can pretty much get yourself a Dom blow while leveling and after 1-3 days you'll have low budget version of the build together even as a beginner.
General Stuff about the build/playing dom Blow
1.: In case you need more basic info on Leaguestarting/dominating blow - I suggest looking into my Video Guide from 3.23: https://youtu.be/Q6nvvjTCu5E?si=tmbVhe9WSRW7bsT9 2.:If you've decided to follow this guide - Please update the POB's ive posted because I keep Updating/tweaking them throughout the league 3.: Spectres you can swapout/swap-in (max 3-4) into the build Demon Harpys (2); They of tul; Pale Seraphim; Perfect Forest Warrior; Perfect Warlord; Spectral Leader; Perfect Blasphemer; Perfect Guardian Turtle 4.: AG Checkout the AG Build setups. I Am using a selfmade Shock/sap Setup that is working very well in The Medium Budget Everything is posted in the Notes (They change throughout the Versions from low-high Budget). Later I go for a more Meta setup
Videos of the build
POB for 3.25 and Progression Curve
Low budget Pob 10-20 Mil DPS: https://pobb.in/r3CuJgOgBRg0 Medium Budget Pob 20-38 Mil DPS: https://pobb.in/yjdVXpJgAt5a High Budget Pob 25-50Mil Dps: https://pobb.in/pLb5HjPuW2DH - Very high hitpool --------------- Progression Curve - This is my Character in 3.25 (01.08): https://pobb.in/toKwXbQvz3hT - This is my Character in 3.25 (03.08): https://pobb.in/YRupCyRib_jI - This is my Character in 3.25 (13.08): https://pobb.in/DgwZSMjVs3mb - This is my Character in 3.25 (16.08): https://pobb.in/_C0hUye1h3Ri - This is my Character in 3.25 (21.08): https://pobb.in/wQtKT_mBDifi ----------------- Do note!-Nr.1: The Vaal Guys have a Skill without any CD which does tripple their default attack. IMO they have roughly 40% uptime on it. I've decided to use their default attack in POB to keep numbers uninflated Do note!-Nr.2: The Gem setups change throughout the versions
3.25 Updates
-Added Arcanist Brand/Battlemage cry Edit: Removed Battlemage cry/ Arcanist brand because I tested it and it didnt feel smooth enough.^^ -I've removed Determination after the nerfs and added Flesh&Stone/ Automation on the Offerings. -Fixd Mana Problems -The Build Has 50/50 true Block now after the 3.25 Tree changes -Removed the +4 Chest because people couldnt really find them on the market. -Redid The Gem Setup. Build plays extremly smooth now
3.24/3.23
A lot of gameplay clips are in the 3.23 Version of the build (https://youtu.be/Q6nvvjTCu5E?si=9eHz2aHkbla-mu1y). Since spectres/charms got changes I had to redo the whole build and I've posted an update for 3.24 https://youtu.be/SlCqm-9ssuw?si=7_yfmFEBBaEYU4Iw. Pob's for using this build: Pob's and Budget 3-8 Div: https://pobb.in/2c9zQZjJNezr - Do note: Most items are rares which push the dmg/ Hitpool farther. You can easily start with just a couple of chaos in this version. Try to incrementally upgrade the build. 65-75 Div: https://pobb.in/bmqhsUF9MYcK With kind regards, Tim- Good luck! Leave a comment and review it if you pickd up the build that'd be nice! :) Last edited by Zurku351#2127 on Nov 13, 2024, 9:51:35 AM Last bumped on Nov 9, 2024, 2:43:22 AM

Hi, looks nice. Can you elaborate a bit on the 1 Button mechanic? How do you create sentinels when you only use the Vaal version?
|
|
Looks like a fun build to migrate to, can you do ultimatums, or mor importantly can the spectres survive?
|

" The Build can do 8k juice so I'd go ahaed and say "yes" it can do ultimatums. I havent run them myself however. The Primal Thunderbrid and the naval officer can die in hihgly juiced maps. Like every 30 maps or so 1 of them rips. I swapd out the naval officer for a perfect warlord because of it ! " All you do is run around and attack stuff. Thats why its 1-button you dont curse, you kinda afk everything :D. The sentinels work in tandem with the vaal version. CHeckout the video and you'll see :) |
|
" Hmm sorry but I still dont understand it. (watched the video 2 times already :)) You have to manually attack mobs dont you? So one button for the normal dominating blow and one for the Vaal version or is any of this automated? Thanks in advance. Last edited by VigorDracul#2148 on Jan 1, 2024, 1:03:32 PM

" The Vaal Domination usually lasts 64 Seconds. This means that you simply hold on the button that summons the 3 ascended minions for a short while once every Minute. Other then that you simply run around auto attacking so that the normal minions may spawn. The Normal ones also last like 42.8 Seconds. I Suppose in the end you could simply run around once you've got everything summoned. I hope you understand now! |

Not sure why but when fighting rare / unique mobs my dom blow isnt procing my concentrated ground from my charm.
Also I cant tell if its spawning them during boss fights in maps as no new ones are spawned and only the ones I have gotten from within the map prior by killing mabs last. am I doing something wrong? |
|
" Perhaps you haven't enabled resolute technique so you don't hit often enough? The Charm should enable atleast sub-optimal uptime on the consecrated Ground. Your second comment leads me to the assumption that you probably simply need to enable resolute technique and you should be fine. do note that Dom Blow only summons on-hit from unique mobs |
|
Just WOW. I did the 100div build what is veary cheap and its sooooooo OP <3 keep this build pls up i will do it every season !!!
