POEGuy's Notes

[Patch 3.28 VIABLE!] Here is the updated SIEGE BALLISTA BUILD GUIDE ( for "SETTLERS OF KALGUUR" LEAGUE). In this version I fixed all the 3.25 Patch Notes NERFS that Siege Ballista received.

This build is a T16 MAP BLASTER! It can do any in-atlas side content in red map with ease! I've adapted this build to have good life and defenses while keeping its SOLID DAMAGE & at a fairly low cost. I'm currently using this build for more than 4 years! Each league I play Siege Ballista. In case you are new to my channel you need to know that over 60% of my videos are Ballista related! This is a Noob friendly guide - so everyone can learn it & play it, enjoy!

POB:

** POBs have a "NOTES" section!

SIEGE BALLISTA PoB: https://pobb.in/51uIjgQ_NsnM

*Every build I release will use the community fork of Path of Building. You can find PoB’s Fork, by LocalIdentity, here: https://pathofbuilding.community/

*Like explained in the Build Guide, for BUDGET you will use a BRISKWRAP body armor, LIGHT OF MEANING with +2 attributes & flat 24 dexterity synth rings instead. This build can be made for as low as 8-12 Divine Orbs budget ( and it still clears T16 maps with ease! )

** the build guide shows you how to BUY & CRAFT the rare items yourself ( so that you don't overpay! ). Also talks about the upgrades and hidden synergies

BETTER-TRADING:

https://justpaste.it/l3is8 Here you have the BETTER TRADING FILTER ( with all the items for this build ) *BETTER-TRADING is a Path Of Exile chrome extension that saves TRADE searches.

Good luck! This will become your best build. Its Fun, Cheap & VERY Effective!
