PoE Academy's Notes

You want to blast through red maps and speed farm with your Sentinels without dying too often? LS Poison is perfectly suited for this purpose as it has a super satisfying playstyle due to Master Toxicist and comes with a rock-solid defenses. If you like this build and are interested in PoE Tips, solid builds and step-by-step guides consider subscribing to my channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/PoEAcademy Minimum Gear Requirements! - Pneumatic Dagger with at least 350 elemental dps (The build doesn't work at all without this item) - Ungils Harmony - Flasks with gain 5 or more charges when hit by an enemy (at least 3 must have the "used when charges reach full" enchant) - Tribal Fury Annoint or +1 Strike Gloves (searing exarch implicit) - > 95% Spell Suppression Upgrades you want to pick up quickly (in order of importance) - Curse enemies with despair on hit ring - Watcher's Eye with flask charge on crit while affected by precision modifier (ideally with life gained on hit - vatility) - Shield with Socketed gems have 20% increased reservation efficiency implicit (synthesis) -> before that reduce the level of vitality and/or precision to keep your unreserved mana > 55 - Pneumatic Dagger with at least 450 elemental dps - Lightning Strike pierces 3 additional Targets helmet, ideally Blizzard Crown base Leveling Not a league starter! Level as Elemental Spectral Helix Deadeye and transition into Poison Lightning Strike when you have your minimal setup ready. I've used this PoB to league start 3.18 with and then transitioned into Poison LS on day 3 of the league: https://pobb.in/afVFxfTKJ5Qm 90% of the gear from Spectral Helix can be used in this build though so the transition is extremely smooth. Crafting Gear All of my items were either cheap to buy or were self-crafted: - The spell suppression gear can be crafted quite easily with essences of doubt on evasion bases or by eldritch crafting unfinished items. If you don't know how this works, check out my step-by-step guide on the topic: https://youtu.be/wBz1I3w6d4A - The dagger can be crafted with either essence of hatred, anger or wrath whichever is cheapest. Alternatively you can use fossils (pristine + deft) -> Better potential but also more expensive - The flasks are all self-crafted as well. Craft on any flask with an itemlevel above 80 to be able to hit up to 7 charges gained when hit by an enemy. Then scour the flask and use 4 glassblower's baubles to make it 20 quality. After that, Alteration spam it until you hit 5 or more charges gained on hit plus a decent suffix like immunity to an ailment. Buying Gear Use my searches: https://pastebin.com/gRwA0dAr You can import them into the Chrome Extension "Better PathOfExile Trading": https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/better-pathofexile-tradin/fhlinfpmdlijegjlpgedcmglkakaghnk Playstyle Tips - Make sure that you reactivate your flasks when there was a longer break (e.g., for looting) in between packs - Hitting twice is usually enough to wipe out packs so you can already move to the next one while Master Toxicists does its work - Video with maps and boss example: https://youtu.be/iU3TfuZs8kY FAQ - I'm not generating power charges, why? -> You must quality Assassin's Mark for it to grant a chance to receive power charges when you hit enemies
