So i think i have finished my pob of the shock slinger. Gotta replace the 6 link arc with lightning conduit and add overcharge support to the 3 link arc but thats about it. i tried to be reasonable with the items since its a league starter but who knows what the actual prices of these will be. Guessing ashes of the stars might be a bit much like this league but we probably have other amulet options anyway. One other thing to note. According to a poe wiki or something i read that spellslinger always triggers helmet first so there shouldnt be a problem with lightning conduit trying to cast

Sooo..i really like the idea and gameplay of the new Lightning Coil skill and have been trying to come up with a build around it. there is a horrible pob made by me with lots of probably too expensive and rare gear to be even considered something like a league starter (and it doesnt have to be imo) I took BL as a subsitute for LC in the chest armor But lets break this down: we are using inquisitor with mjölnir to automate shock novas from the hammer together with elemental prolif to spread shock which we then detonate through L

Warning: This is not a league start PoB. You could play seismic or lightning trap and then respec into this after getting all of the required unique items. PoB: (2m+ dps) End Game PoB: (8m+ dps) I am looking for feedback on this quirky trapper that uses the new version of ephemeral edge. I added flat lightning damage to the sword to simulate the new mod until we get PoB updated. This could be played as the trickster to make a tankier version but I think you lose a lot of dps.

After reading the amazing post by u/metalonorfeed on tanky deadeye and seeing the changes for Artillery Ballista, I started to put this RoA/Artillery Ballista build together. It seems decent on paper, and should be buffed next league with brand new defensive layers that I'm quite excited about. If I can get it to a satisfying level, it could even be a good option for leaguestart. Let's start with the POB: The build benefits from th

I was bored and decided to make a quick build with the just as of 8 August teased new Mokou's Embrace. I was too lazy to make seperate gem setups per level, but if you're following this build you're probably a grown up and you can decide for yourself what you wanna do in life. Make sure, you're resistance capped first. Gluttony belt is mandatory to ignite ourselves with shield charge/flame dash even though we can't activate our life recovery, we can use it to activate onslaught from our chest and our amulet which gives us endurance charge generation.

Like many others I am excited and hopeful to crack in to a new viable and fun league starter with Guardian SRS. In this POB my goal was to be realistic/conservative, and give myself a lot of wiggle room. Please critique and give constructive feedback and tips. Goal is to get to red maps and maybe do a few shaper/eater/exarch kills. Thank You! &x200B;

From what we've seen so far, do you guys think zerker with rage and impale would be a good choice for 3.19? Here's a quick pob I threw together (not sure if I'm calculating the dps of it correctly but it looks promising). Perhaps the new buffed chieftain node will also make fire conversion good, but I doubt it will change a lot. Doesn't need anything special, just a decent axe. I think it will be a good league starter and ssf build, but I'm worried about defences. But then again defences are getting gutted so may as well go full

I started building a new league starter (hopefully no balance changes to SC) and think that I have a pretty refined idea for budget Shield Crush utilizing some cheap uniques. Watchers Eye (Single Mod) is really the only item that may be expensive to work towards as a goal in the first week, but impale is pretty non-meta right now. Overall nothing too crazy or innovative but think its worthy of a league start. POB has no cluster, gem quality, flasks, Eldritch mods, or berserk buff. Amazing shields are pretty cheap or easy to craft with Rog Should be able to hit 5 Mil DPS by end of week 1 or

This is my leaguestarter which I've spend too much time on. Ideas and critique welcome. I wanted to do something different but yet something that will work. This build is on the glass cannon side but managed to level up to 99 without 5-ways. I would not recommend this exact build for poison spark, occultist offers so much more but I like speed. I think raider is pretty okey though because of more projectile speed mastery is near and we can use master toxicist forbidden jewels. Some core pieces this build needs: Oscillating sceptre (or body armour with elemental overload) Glorious vanity

Hi Everyone, I decided to give LS a try for the first time this league. I wanted to league start a build that I could clear all the game's content with without re-rolling another character since I hate leveling through the campaign so much. First off, I played Helix until about level 92, and that was terrible, and frankly I don't think I really want to repeat that process ever again. It was tolerable in the campaign, but not having the gear needed in a league start scenario to make switching to LS feel good until level 92 was less than ideal. However, around level 92 I was very fortunate and

Hey guys, recently thought about possible offmeta league starters and came up with this Chaos BV, heavily inspired by the trending Cold BV variants. Build has 60% chance to explode ennemies and gull+blunderbore for fast mapping, as well as badge of the brotherhood for high withering step uptime to have it up for almost every pack and get the wither damage multiplicator for the explosions too. The build has actually 3.5M dps with the current config even against sirus which seems pretty decent. Ive found two things a bit worrysome:
