What is the point of trying to hide what your build looks like?


He needs 2 more months to create the guide. Give him time.

I think Demonform without Mastered Darkness is always worth running. If you have a very good weapon setup that just means you can now work on letting Demonform run up to 100+ stacks for a massive damage increase and use your regular setup as a strong option to fall back on when your Demonform is on cooldown.

At 100 stacks you are looking at well over 1500% increased spell damage, likely 1700% or 1800% depending on your level. With proper "shenanigans", some folks have gotten up to 200+ stacks already. I have not delved much into that tech yet, so can't give much advice, but that would be my goal if I were you.


Thanks! I somehow missed that the dmg increase also infinitely scales with demonflame, so I just need to find some good life regen, and demonform will be a great burst dmg option for bosses, and maybe regular mobs too if I can sustain it uncapped. Otherwise, great build!
That's good to know on how the scaling works, I dont think I realized that. Thanks for the input
A new ed hit resets the duration of debuffs or add new debuffs on top of existing ones with independent durations?

There are builds linked in this thread that do what his build does. There’s not a ton to change.

Get chaos nodes, pick a defensive layer (ES, ES+CI, armor/life, evasion/ES) and get some curse/hinder/wither nodes.

Get some +chaos skill modifiers.

This is all you need to do guys... you dont need a guide. POE2 is lacking depth atm, you can't go astray.

Hello all, I have updated my build guide here for Infernalist.

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/21a13227-9ec7-4c9d-861b-855520d1d045/builds/4b4775cf-5534-4ad2-be5b-9b5ee1b1a2e3

I am now doing map clear with Hexblast + poisons and using ED to give supplemental DPS on bosses or extremely dense activities like Breach and Ritual.

Ultimately this feels 10x more comfortable to play as you can do 80% of mapping with a single button, 15% with 2 buttons and the final 5% might require 3-4 buttons.

I have left the tabs up for the old style of just ED Contagion, but I highly recommend giving poison Hexblast a try.


Intrigued by this list, any pointers and things to go for when starting out with this build in mind? I'm only in Act 2 yet so clearly a long ways to go, but want to start focusing my build.


this skill tree is so much waste of points.

Why he is going to spells or curses but skill 90% just mainstat instead of boosts
