golova_ohotitsa's Notes
The core idea of this build and the reason I chose Martial Artist over Gemling Legionnaire revolves around maintaining power charges using Hollow Focus. This setup provides 90% extra damage thanks to Rend (50%) and support gems (40%), with a duration long enough to comfortably burst down any "uber boss".when mapping i am only use totem and swap to magnified area for a lot better clear. Additionally, using Maligaro's Virtuosity grants 40% flat crit, allowing us to simply stack critical strike damage multipliers.I also wanted decent survivability. Monk helps immensely here by providing a massive amount of flat Energy Shield and Evasion, which means we can completely skip using an ES helmet.
To maximize damage penetration, I converted all the crossbow damage to Lightning. The end result is roughly 1.5 to 2 million DPS, but if the boss stands perfectly still, the actual DPS flies to the moon. Note: The numbers in PoB aren't fully accurate because I didn't bother calculating overlaps or up all the conditional in configuration

My goal was to create a highly efficient, maximum budget build, even if the playstyle isn't the most comfortable. I've also put together a guide and a few showcases for anyone interested: https://youtu.be/jrH_RB3M3Ig?si=OolA8yehT5q4imOK
WARNING: THIS BUILD IS NOT LEAGUE-START FRIENDLY! The required unique items are very expensive during the first 2days of the league start. This build is perfect for casual players who don't have much time to play but still want to clear all the bosses without grind on meta build.
