[3.25] The Lazy Nova - Archmage MoM Crit Ice Nova of Frostbolts with Svalinn
" Great looking build! Congrats. *You can get a large DPS increase by replacing Power Charge on Crit with Intensify and taking the caster mastery "....+1 to maximum intensity". The build does not need Power Charge on Crit to get and keep maximum power charges. The combination of Disciple of the Forbidden and Assassins Mark will keep your charges up. *Note that if you find an upgrade you want to make, but don't have the funds, sell Awakened Spell Echo. Its main effect does not work with this build so all you get for an insane amount of money is a small amount of cast speed. Awakened Spell echo should be the absolute last tiny upgrade to get. I have spent over 1300 divs on my build and I still have not bothered with Awakened Spell Echo yet. Last edited by AndyLovesHisBge#5265 on Sep 26, 2024, 12:20:56 PM

This is my current POB. Don't mind the awakened spell echo, I'm just leveling it for profit. The POB says that my block chance is 88% and my spell block chance is 86%. But this is counting with lucky block, right? I'm asking because the maximum is 65%, and I'm a few points away from getting full spell block chance. On that topic, how can I reach full block cap? Replica Reckless Defense is nice, but I don't have a spot for it in my build without sacrificing something. I really need to get a corrupted blood immunity corrupt on one of my unique jewels, but I really don't wanna risk bricking my current jewels. Ideally I'd also like to drop Rumi's Concoction so that I can slot in other utility flasks depending on the situation. I've been looking at some poe.ninja build variations and they can get pretty damn crazy, but also crazy expensive. A lot of them go full crit as well, and it's something I'm interested in., especially with the new buffs on crit chance on wands this league. But yeah, small steps first: how can I cap both block chances and drop Rumi's? Also, if I want to upgrade my Watcher's Eye, should I get a double Zealotry or double Wrath for maximum DPS?

" * Yes, the 88% is the lucky calculation. The in game tool tip does not calculate lucky so you need to see it in POB. * If you wish to reach 90% block cap, you need to raise your maximum block. There are uniques, corruptions and nodes on the tree that raise max block chance but they require many changes in the build. * Replica Reckless is the common way people use to drop Rumi's. It also requires multiple changes to the build. * Wrath vs Zealotry all comes down to how much crit chance you have with out Zealotry. It is very easy to compare in POB. Just copy in two different watchers eyes with the mods you want, 1 eye for wrath and 1 eye for zealotry, and copy these into pob. Then just plug them into your tree with the associated aura enabled in your skills and see what has more dps. |

I am using this build but staying none crit, with block, mana @10k. I found no ben to invest in crit for zero added bonuses to build. Pure mana scale dmg is 108mil. More than enough for all content, also dropped the curse ring for death rush, giving adrenaline. This scales dps and all def attributes so much further then applying 2 or 3 curses. Great explanation of jewels, I didn’t know about the meaning of light and UI interaction. I thought it stated points overlapped by other jewels unaffected. Also the other interactions too. Thanks will look further tonight

Hello sir, i'm a new player (First league) and achieved 36/40 challenges with this build!!!
I was comparing my pob with yours and i'm missing about 25 million damage and don't know why. It's not a problem really i just want to know what to change to push the build further if possible. Here is my pob: https://pobb.in/H68JLtqO5usQ Thanks for the guide!!! |

" hello! Congrats on an amazing first league! Here are some comments you can consider to help you improve the build * Deallocate the two points you spent getting Storm Drinker in the large cluster. In the large cluster we only want Doryani's Lesson and Scintillating Idea. Storm Drinker is not useful because we cap ES leech in the build via Light Eater. In POE you are only allowed so much leech so when you stack too much of it, it becomes wasted. * For more DPS, consider changing your amulet anoint to Infused (which is what the build guide uses). * You have to change your militant faith. The one you choose mistakenly overwrote two very important nodes in the build, that being Instability and Prodigal Perfection. Please see the build guides FAQ section labeled "Timeless jewels are confusing" for details on how to choose the Militant Faith so that you do not over write any of our important nodes. *In your config section, you are missing a very important configuration. In the enemy stats column, look for "Is the Enemy a Boss" and set that Guardian Pinnacle boss. This is the standard boss config for all POB's. * You need to get a new Amythst flask as this ones suffix is too low a roll to make you stun immune. Get a roll of 52% or higher to become stun immune. *You can start to upgrade your gems to 21/20 or 21/0 where appropriate. See the build guide to see which gems benefit from quality and which do not. |

How do I fit clarity into the build? I see lots of people using helpful Clarity mods on the watcher's eye.
Also does anyone know which are the best watcher's eye mods to go for? |

" Wrath: (70-100)% increased Critical Strike Chance while affected by Wrath (40-60)% increased Lightning Damage while affected by Wrath Damage Penetrates (10-15)% Lightning Resistance while affected by Wrath Purity of Elements: +(30-50)% to Chaos Resistance while affected by Purity of Elements +1% to all maximum Elemental Resistances while affected by Purity of Elements Zealotry: (10-15)% increased Cast Speed while affected by Zealotry (100-120)% increased Critical Strike Chance against Enemies on Consecrated Ground while affected by Zealotry Critical Strikes Penetrate (8-10)% of Enemy Elemental Resistances while affected by Zealotry Clarity: (10-15)% chance to Recover 10% of Mana when you use a Skill while affected by Clarity (15-20)% of Damage taken while affected by Clarity Recouped as Mana Gain (6-10)% of Maximum Mana as Extra Maximum Energy Shield while affected by Clarity ========================= To use the Clarity Arrogance combo in the build, some people have been removing the Arcanist Brand setup and using a wand that auto casts spells instead, or they self cast the spells or they use a CWDT set up. You can take a look on poeninja to see which set ups you like if you want to use Clarity in the build. None of the builds in this threads build guide uses the Clarity setup. |

Hello Just dropping by to say thank you for the build and ask a question. :)
I dont like Cloak of Defiance. Is there a way to get another armour there or MoM is too important? Also is the ward stat in the shield worth getting it maxed or high? Last edited by WillFireblade#0568 on Sep 29, 2024, 2:50:15 AM

" *The value of the ward stat on the shield is meaningless to the build. Just worry about the block chance *You can choose another armor if you like, but MOM is very critical to survival. You can always just path directly to MOM on the tree if you don't want to use Cloak of Defiance. Last edited by AndyLovesHisBge#5265 on Sep 29, 2024, 3:32:32 AM
