Aepocalypsa's Notes
EK Ignite Elementalist

newest pob always: https://pobb.in/u/Aepocalypsa/Caly_EK
T17 deli Showcase without explody synth bow: https://youtu.be/fGLr6RyeQBQ
general notes
- gloomfang is waaaay more feelsgood for mapping. chain auto aims so your clears are literally twice as clean.
obvi it does depend a bit - closed maps dont need chain - but legion on dunes for example? glooming any day of the weak
- asphyxias wrath is a fantastic quiver early and scales alrightdue to cheap double corruptions. look for phys as extra cold>fire>light>chaos and extra damage per chain
however, it does ruin your poe.ninja dps -.- but rares beat it in endgame
- culling strike on a dot build is very often pure padding and doesnt improve your mapping
- ele overload has super poor uptime until you have hh
- dot cap exists obvi but headhunter buffs will get you there. try to be dot capped with convergence at most
spectre used: 2x perfect dark marionette
content:
- yes: t17/simu/blighted maps/deli
- meh: (uber) bossing
- current t17 regex: "!ail|lier|deb|s rec|o su|get|wni|wb|tiles$|ever"
- i also use a 2nd regex but its not super needed: "!ch$|tab" "sca"
tattoos:
- 1x2% spell supp (ramako shaman)
- 5x -curse effect (hinekora deathwarden)
- as many chaos res (hinekora storyteller) as possible
the bow:
- synth base: explody > all but fire damage or +1 supp are also decent
- item level 82+ and low dex req. 140 or lower is bis, 152 is okay. 212 is godawful dont do that to yourself please for the love of god
- deafening essence of misery until t1 dot multi (24-26)
- if third suffix: annul and pray
- otherwise lock suffix and scour so you have a rare bow with two mods: cast speed and dot multi
- bench craft "cannot roll attack modifiers". you now have a bow with three suffixes and no prefixes
- exalt slam. this always hits "+1 to socketed gems"
- finish with multimod, +2 support, and fire as extra chaos
on stun immune:
- brine king is awful :'(
- but the other options suck
- my beloved boot enchant: gone nooooooes
- immutable force: maybe? i guess? costs a bit of dps
- conclusion: evasion will have to be enough
getting tankier:
- spell suppression!
- grace!
- progenesis!
- chaos res!
- seriously if you miss any of those, get them.
- can swap haste to determination and add a granite flask
prolif?
- fan the flames on cluster OR on glove implicit
- grand eldritch implicit > blowback > lesser eldritch implicit, damage wise
- and otoh you need a very expensive eldritch implicit to beat fan the flames, range wise
- conclusion: fan the flames and dotmulti implicit
todi
- implicits for the unique jewels
- double explody bow
- craft some new gloves
bis med setup
wasting+blowback
wasting/blowback+brush (comfypill)
purposeful+empowered envoy
and another one of those <3
getting a third cluster with purposeful isnt worth since it caps
now stop pestering me ingame about it naaah jkjk ilu ♥
scuffed notes in pob i guess? maaybe ill clean them up but its just ek not much new
