NOT A GUIDE - TIGHT BUDGET Pathfinder CRIT Whirling Assault - Path of Exile 2

NOT A GUIDE just a few things I have personally run into and what I did to fix it. Weapon set 2 is only for movement (wolf pounce/sprint) when not attacking at all. There is a bug where you have charged staff on and swap to wolf, swap back to staff and you cannot use charged staff. The left over attributes can be allocated for 5% inc damage/defence/cost efficiency My leech is horrible I got instant leech on my heart of the well jewel. Other fixes could be rings - make sure rings have double leech for HP. Another issue was my weapon (lacking damage). You need flat phys and % phys for your quarter staff for more damage = more leech. When I was first testing this out I was about 75% crit CAN'T MOVE GET STUNLOCKED I got a Gain additional Stun Threshold equal to #% of maximum Energy Shield jewel Very squishy I initially had this issue where I'd get one shot, but I have managed to level 94. Take some ES nodes on the tree instead of crit or get better ES on gear. With whirling assault, the mobs almost never hit me (terrible 'fix' but it worked for me) Boss can one shot if I don't one shot the boss first. I'm used to playing with 0 defence so this is a normal thing for me T_T. I just use gathering storm and set it up to one shot before it can one shot me. Not enough Crit Having crit on the helmet helped a lot with getting higher crit chance. I played around on POB for hours to find out the best crit nodes for myself to take. Easiest way to increase crit is by having a good crit roll on weapon and helmet. Crit amulet was too expensive for me Not enough resistance I tried to put most resistances on body armour and boots. I had to deal with my lack of resistance with all elemental resistance suffix on jewellery which wasn''t a cheap base to buy. Another way I capped res was using a double/triple resistance belt and added runes to equipment (not body armour) where needed. I don't one shot I could have been lacking damage, gathering storm did not crit or I missed the ability (perfect timing or just whiffed). I also almost never charge Tasalio's rhythm to 5, usually I just go in with 0 power charges (overflowing power's travel nodes gives me 20% increase crit bonus after consuming power charges x3) and 0 stacks of Tasalio. Some bosses have player damage reduction in the first ~10 seconds of the fight and some are just extremely tanky. I don't always one shot but most of the time I do. Rageforged II This was another option but I really liked Ancestral Call's AOE increase. I have never had mana issues but I am aware that you can equip Waistgate and hotswap HP slot to Lavianga's spirit for mana regen/second Jewel: - #% increased Critical Hit Chance - #% increased Area of Effect - Gain additional Stun Threshold equal to #% of maximum Energy Shield - #% increased Energy Shield - #% increased Critical Damage Bonus https://www.pathofexile.com/trade2/search/poe2/Fate%20of%20the%20Vaal/wvWRR9rdcb Heart of the well - #% of Leech is Instant (MANDATORY) - #% increased Critical Hit Chance (Probably need) - #% increased Critical Damage Bonus https://www.pathofexile.com/trade2/search/poe2/Fate%20of%20the%20Vaal/7nLooYgyC5 Time-Lost Sapphire Small Passive Skills in Radius also grant #% increased maximum Energy Shield Notable Passive Skills in Radius also grant #% increased Critical Hit Chance Notable Passive Skills in Radius also grant #% increased Critical Damage Bonus (This gets really expensive) https://www.pathofexile.com/trade2/search/poe2/Fate%20of%20the%20Vaal/KW5gBQRI5
