THIS TECH BREAKS DAMAGE SCALING 💀| Forbidden Rite Assassin [PoE 3.28]

Hello everyone, SoloHood here.

In this video I’m showcasing what is probably my favorite build of the Mirage League, built around the new unique sceptre Sands of Time and its interaction with Triggerbots.

This setup is not only extremely satisfying to play, but also scales damage in a very unique way through mirage repetitions — way beyond what PoB can actually show.

🔗 PoB (IMPORTANT – READ)

https://pobb.in/eHDh2j3uwCwj

This PoB is VERY conservative and does NOT include:

Animate Guardian bonuses: Fortify Culling Strike Crit Multi Enfeeble Companionship The REAL damage scaling from Suspend in Time (mirage copies) ⚠️ IMPORTANT – PoB vs REAL DAMAGE

PoB is VERY conservative and does NOT show the real damage of the build.

With Triggerbots + Sands of Time:

Each mirage deals ~80% damage We can reach 4 copies

👉 That’s roughly +320% extra damage just from mirages

(Based on testing, Triggerbots’ damage penalty does not seem to affect mirage repetitions)

So yeah… PoB damage is WAY lower than what you actually get in game. ➡️ That’s why PoB massively undervalues the build — real gameplay damage is MUCH higher.

🧟 Animate Guardian Setup

AG bonuses are NOT included in PoB but are actually very important.

Gear used:

Kingmaker → Fortify, Culling Strike, Crit Multi aura Mask of the Stitched Demon → massive life regen Gruthkul’s Pelt → huge life pool + sustain Vixen’s Entrapment (Enfeeble on Hit corruption) → automatic Enfeeble Rare boots (life + resistances) → cap res and survivability

👉 This setup gives both offensive boosts and strong defensive layering

🧠 Build Highlights Chaos Damage Immune (CI setup) 16k+ Energy Shield 100% Elemental Ailment Immunity 200%+ Item Rarity Insane burst damage through mirage stacking Very strong mapping + Uber viable (with mechanics)

💬 Final Notes

This is one of those builds where the real power is not visible in PoB, but you can clearly feel it in gameplay.

If you try something similar or improve the setup (especially Animate Guardian), let me know — I’m really curious to see how far this can go.

Thanks a lot for watching ❤️ See you in the next one.
