[3.25] The Lazy Nova - Archmage MoM Crit Ice Nova of Frostbolts with Svalinn
" Hello. I have reviewed your POB and here are some comments to consider * In your second large cluster, you do not want a second Doryani's Lesson as you max out your life leech with the first Doryani's Lesson. Look for something like Overshock to help replace what you lost in the Lightning Mastery when adding the second cluster * The suffix of increased armor on the Diamond flask is effectively wasted because we have no armor to scale. I would highly recommend changing this suffix to a 52% or greater Reduced Effect of Curses. This will make you curse immune which is a lovely defensive layer and QOL * Get 21/20 More Duration, Automation, and Assassins Mark * You are still missing 2% on Spell Block to be capped. You should be able to get that on a rare jewel. You may want to transfer the corrupted blood immunity to one of the unique jewels to free up your searches on the rare jewel. * If you are ever in need of money, feel free to sell the Awakened Spell Echo. The main feature of Awakened Spell Echo is not usable on this build. So all you are getting is a small amount of cast speed for effectively 55 divines. That money can be much better spent else where or saved if you ever want to upgrade your weapon to the mirror tier wand or your ring to the mirror tier ring Last edited by AndyLovesHisBge on Oct 4, 2024, 10:38:19 PM

Hi, first time playing a league this far. Any help with the build would be appreciated, I have about 30-50 div to sell stuff with. Really new to the endgame but this build is great so far!
https://pobb.in/IqwDWnXuOKo0 also how do i configure pob? | |
" Hello and welcome to the thread. Please note that you are playing a significantly different version of the build than we are in this thread. You have different tree, gear and skills, so we can’t offer a ton of help. If you are interested in swapping your whole set up to our version, please give a long read to the build guide in the first post of the thread. The build creator did a wonderful job providing information. You will also find multiple POB’s in the build guide that can show you how to configure your own POB.

" I have upgraded gems accordingly but cant find another Large Jewel with decent passives. So I am about to make my last changes to the build and I think this will final! I haven't bought the items yet but I wanted your advice on the matter before I do. Here is a POB of what it will look like after I make the chances. I hope it keeps them. Keep in mind I am at level 98 atm heading to 99 shortly. https://pobb.in/BFYKu5PpOqYI The changes I basically made are 1. Added Impossible Escape and took the SANCTUARY node. 2. Swapped Svalinn with reduction from critical strikes but I lost the +4% block from the shield I am currently using. 3. Changed Critical Mastery to reduction from critical strikes with this I get 100%+ immunity from crits. 4. Added some Tattoo of the Ngamahu Firewalker just because I like rounded numbers on my resists. 5. Used Jewels accordingly so I can get max Block on spell and attack 88/88 +1 atm. So basically with these changes from the build I use now. I lose 2.6mil DPS and gain 70k EHP. Hmm.. And I have to spent quite a lot divines around 60-70 to get the shield and the jewel (of course I will sell my old one and make up the difference). But still I dont know.. What do you think? EDIT: Nevermind I misscalculated I had my old shield still fitted. So the block chance is 87/87 if you change to the shield with crit reductiion. :/ Last edited by WillFireblade on Oct 5, 2024, 10:12:28 AM

" It looks pretty good. Badge is causing some weird problems that we normally do not have to deal with. If it were not for badge, I would have suggested the following: Impossible Escape is too powerful to only use a single node. On your very next level, get Sanctum of Thought. Then change the Crit mastery back to what you originally had (DPS) and change the shield back to your original shield (lets you cap block). And then use Tattoos to cap your crit reduction. In short, the cleanest way to get 100% crit reduction is: 50% on chest, 30% from Sanctum of Thought and 20% from tattoos. So with a single level you will be able to be crit capped, get back the DPS you lost and become Block capped. Last edited by AndyLovesHisBge on Oct 5, 2024, 11:37:27 AM

This is it!! Finalized and CLEAN! I think :)
https://pobb.in/S9HiS13FYVdU 27MiL dmg 740k EHP 88/88 Block Chance. I think it looks pretty good. BUT with the increase in cast speed and the removal of heart of Thunder I run into some mana problems in certain maps. So I am thinking experimenting with removing the Critical Mastery node so I can add some mana nodes and also Tireless node. That will reduce my DPS around 2mil and improve my mana a lot and EHP by 100k. Other than experimenting with that and refining jewels I don't see anything else I can do. What do you think? And some final questions. I see the people in PoeNinja that have similar builds like this with Ralakesh and Badge that they use the curses on boots all linked with Arcanist brand. i was wondering is that self cast for single target? And then they use enfeeble and punishment linked with frostbold on the helmet. Which was the initial setup zigs had on his build at the start of the season. I am guessing for more dps? I might also give it a try. |

" A common (and probably the easiest) way to apply the 5 curses is the following: 2 curses automatically from helmet 3 curses from self casting arcanist brand(once) Arcanist brand is self cast typically on only REALLY big single targets. Last edited by AndyLovesHisBge on Oct 5, 2024, 4:20:39 PM

Here is my new pob, what should i do to improve my build? and for pob configs, am i really getting 50 shock? thanks | |
" Hello, I have reviewed your POB. Here are some comments you may consider * You need to add quality to all flasks for better up time * The Jade flask does not synergize with this build. Evasion does not help us as we want to be blocking as much as possible to get full benefit from our shield * You have no suffix on the Diamond flask * The build really does not require a mana flask. I would replace this with a Rumi's flask to get you much closer to block cap. * We cap ES leech with the tree node Light Eater, so the suffix on your quicksilver flask is being wasted * You are correct in that with your current gear and tree, you are not going to be hitting 50 shock. You should probably be setting this to 15 for a more realistic look at your DPS. Note that the lightning mastery which you have not yet allocated is very important for shock effect. * You are not using the recommended Light of Meaning jewel. The best one to get is Lightning Damage * You are missing the two extremely important implicits on the gloves. You want those to be Life leech on lightning damage and chance to unnerve on hit. You have Unnerve configured in your POB but you have no source of Unnerve with out this implicit. * You have the wrong implicit on the helmet. Our build does very very little cold damage. We do almost all lightning damage. You want the implicit that has +1 to Power Charge as the corruption. * You need to add quality to Sigil of Power, Punishment, Inspiration, Inc Crit Damage, Spell Echo, Archmage, Assasins Mark, Arcane Cloak, More Duration, Automation, and Faster Casting * You have some level 1 gems that need to be leveled to 20. Every gem in the build should be at least level 20 besides Greater Multiple Projectiles. After you complete fixing these issues, come back for a new review if you want.

Started with Ziz Version of this build, but it was so squishy.
A friend drew my attention to this thread and i reskilled into this. So much better now with Svallin. Can facetank Simulacrum bosses deathless or just die only once when it is unfavorable location. But thats ok for me. But I wonder why I sometimes get oneshotted in maps. For example from Consuming Thralls, Porcupines etc.. But mostly these evil laser shooting things. Maybe I missed something? Would someone please be so kind and help me. Thanks for this build and thanks in advance for your help. https://pobb.in/EpSxueDoTWbu Last edited by Maggsi on Oct 7, 2024, 9:21:32 AM
