Level 100 Crit Lancing Steel Champion [3.27]

Apologies to mods if this counts as a meme post. Happy to post sans image.

Lancing Steel and as much fortify as possible—some from the gloves, some from focus, some from timeless jewel. 3-6M uDPS, depending.

Unless you really like seeing your main skill at 0.0% played on PoE Ninja (e.g. me) there's dozens of better skills to play. But I do have some notes that could be helpful:

• Strength of Blood is pretty good! PoB says I can survive Uber Shaper slam ~75% of the time, not that I'm standing still for that.

  • There is a slightly obtuse interaction in that you need overleech to benefit from Strength of Blood, so I have to run Petrified Blood and have slightly less life reservation than my low life threshold.

• Focus is better than I thought, I had figured the downtime/cooldown would be severely limiting but it actually doesn't matter much. Having curses in a focus trigger helmet is also pretty handy.

• Bloodthirst Support is just kinda mediocre? Maybe it's because I was using a 2hander but the fact that it's flat added damage means your weapon will eventually outscale it.

• The Wild Bear seems good, even with minimal investment into rage generation and therefore Wild Savagery uptime. Rage tincture could be used to extend uptime.

• Runegraft of Treachery is unusually good here, with life reservation also getting the efficiency and only a few auras mattering on enemies.

• Crit is actually somewhat hard to get, the good nodes on the tree are for melee. Lucky crit chance through focus does a lot.

Plenty of inefficiencies/places to optimize still in the build, but I've finished my challenges and am off to pursue other hobbies.
