[PoE 3.27] Banana Cast on Crit (Spectral Throw)

A guildie got 20 divs from the tree so they decided to fund my build idea after I told them about throwing bananas at enemies and skewering them with icicles. So this was a week 1 snapshot, I farmed shiny mageblood with this build in ~5 days and then took a break from PoE.

Spectral Throw is an interesting CoC trigger skill. It can be used with a claw or dagger (just like Cyclone) but it has multiple hits per attack (just like Lancing Steel), so it is an interesting middle ground. However at close range the trigger rate is far from optimal, Lancing Steel is likely still the better option at higher budget once you can deal with the much lower base crit of swords.

I have a double coc setup here with Creeping Frost, I found that this helps significantly with enemies that like to walk towards me. Otherwise for bossing Inspiration is much better.

This showcases half of my farm - 8mod corrupted maps with simple Harvest and Eagon memories. This part of the farm generates about 10div/h despite my sub-optimal damage output against Harvest rares. Note that clearing Breach is not good for money per hour, I just do it because I like gambling with Provisioning Wombgifts. The other half of my farm is Crop Rotation Rush that consumes the 8mod corrupted maps. Go into a map, find and do the harvest and leave immediately. That generates about 15div/h, but can easily go up to 20-30div/h with a mageblood and higher damage output.

• Budget is ~30 divs, less than 20 divs for everything except the Blanketed Snow cluster which was about 12 divs.
• Dps in PoB assumes optimal trigger rate, which happens when enemies are at the tip of Spectral Throw's arc. Of course this doesn't always happen, in reality the damage can be as low as 3-5M when enemies are right in front of me. Creeping Frost shotgunning at close range helps with this.
• I have a Runegraft of Treachery to help with mana in no regen maps when triggering 2 spells, this is not required if you are willing to swap a mana flask.
• Automate your flasks, I'm an old person so I'm used to old PoE flask piano.
