3.27 League Starter Build - Cobra Lash Trinity Assassin

P A S S I V E T R E E : Passive tree have been configured to show different leveling breakpoints during campaign. There also an included Tree with more flat life. A S C E N D A N C Y P R O G R E S S I O N : You can finish campaign with only allocating Knife in the Back. During early mapping, you can get Opportunistic and Mistwalker. Shadowed Blood will be the last Ascendancy for QoL. I T E M S : During campaigns, all you need to look for are claws and daggers with elemental damage. Depending on what you have, you need to adjust the passive tree to scale your damage based on your weapon. I used low level claws for life gain on hit from act 1, updgrading it when i feel that my dps is getting lower in relation to mob levels. You also need to look for stats to meet stat requirements of the Heralds and Elemental Aura skill gems. We won't be activating all of them in one go, we will use them to balance out the elemental damage to generate Resonance when we slot in Trinity. In general, look for resistance and stats for items. A F T E R C A M P A I G N : Get a 6 link immediately. They are cheap and will increase your damage significantly. Get 2 red, 2 blues, 2 greens for the socket colours. Start buying cluster jewels: 8 passive nodes Claw/Dagger Cluster Jewel & 2x 4-5 passive nodes Projectile Damage Cluster Jewels. Get an Anti Corrupted Blood Jewel. This with Shadowed Blood will make your character kinda immune to ignite, poison, bleed, and corrupted blood. (You are still affected by ignite, poison, and bleed. You just don't get damaged by them) C L U S T E R J E W E L S : Dagger/Claw Cluster Jewel - Fuel the Fight + Drive the Destruction + Martial Prowess Projectile Cluster Jewels - Follow-Through ============================================================================= O L D (for record purposes): Knife in the Back: 100% more Critical Strike Chance against Enemies that are on Full Life +100% to Critical Strike Multiplier against Enemies that are on Low Life Critical Strikes have Culling Strike Opportunistic: Damage from your Critical Strikes cannot be Reflected 25% more Damage while there is at most one Rare or Unique Enemy nearby Mist Walker: Gain Elusive on Critical Strike 100% Increased Elusive Effect You take no Extra Damage from Critical Strikes while Elusive Shadowed Blood: 40% of Physical Damage taken Recouped as Life Unaffected by Damaging Ailments C O N F I G U R A T I O N N O T E S : I selected Enemy on Full Life to simulate "Enemies are not on Low Life." Adding "Enemies are not on Low Life" doesn't work correctly yet in PoB. I also omitted the new small Ascendancy nodes and just added the current 4 small nodes from the tree. You can remove them and add the new small Ascendancy nodes if you want. I just suspect that the new small Ascendancy nodes are similar to the old ones.
