HK41251's Notes

This Gas Grenade Shaman build in Path of Exile 2 abuses Rage scaling and Tacati's Ire to deal insane poison damage while staying mobile.

In this video, I break down my Gas Grenade Shaman build in Path of Exile 2.

This is a poison-based damage over time build that uses Rage scaling and Tacati's Ire to massively accelerate poison damage. I built this character from a fresh start in trade league and killed Uber Arbiter and Tier 3 Xesht in just six days.

I cover: Core mechanics (Gas Grenade, poison, Rage) Passive tree priorities Gear, socketables, and jewel options How the build plays Leveling and transition tips

This is an off-meta build that’s beginner-friendly, scalable, and extremely satisfying to play.
