Noteworthy Interactions | Episode #3 - Decay ft. Storm Burst

When Decay Support was first added to PoE in the 3.0 beta, it was incredibly overpowered and quickly got nerfed to nearly unplayable levels. Now, 10 leagues later, it's finally a viable option for endgame content! No ED/contagion for clearing or blight for single target, just straight up decay, baby. This build uses Arc/Vaal Arc + Decay for clearing, and Storm Burst + Decay for single target.

Noteworthy Interactions:

• Storm Burst's "75% of skill damage for each 0.4 seconds of remaining duration" on release scales decay's damage when linked with decay support. New cluster notables like Wicked Pall and Circling Oblivion allow for huge skill effect duration scaling, and are easy to stack, resulting in big Storm Burst damage scaling and decays with a duration of over a minute.

• Arc's "15% more damage per remaining chain" also scales decay damage. We utilize chain support to further scale Arc's clearing potential and decay damage while ignoring the "less damage with hits" downside, as decay is not a hit.

• Life-based Occultist is a perfect fit for the Divine Flesh keystone, as Withering Presence provides 60% chaos resistance and easily maintains wither stacks on enemies, which increase chaos damage taken.

• Hands of the High Templar gloves can have multiple corrupted implicits, including multiple on-hit curses. This makes it easy to apply 3 relevant curses without reserving mana for blasphemy.

• Aspect of the Spider hinders nearby enemies, allowing us to take advantage of the Touch of Cruelty cluster notable without actually hitting enemies with a chaos skill.
