PoE Melee, Mapping builds

STEP BY STEP LEVELLING: Act 1: Buy Frost Blades from Nessa after you kill Hillock. We're going to use Frost Blades for clear and Double Strike for single targets. Buy a Paua Amulet for mana regeneration(we will need this until we get Life and Mana Leech on passive tree) and also craft movement speed boots as soon as you can. Pick up 3-colored items and sell them for chromatic orbs for first 2-3 acts. We will need them since we change skills through levelling. Keep on upgrading mana flasks especially until Act 6, we will be using them frequently. Also Magic weapon with added Physical Damage

hello everyone was thinking if leap slam totems could be made viable and I came up with this PoB: Its a hybrid character that uses also cyclones with the totems. Details: - 70 rage (berserker ascendancy, rage support and bloodscent notable) - uses hiltless self reflect to cwdt 1 poacher's mark and get frenzy charges - 20 seconds leap slam totem duration with ~133k dps each (3 totems) - features impale - goes low life with petrified blood and over 8k total life (bloodthirst is one of the better supports that remained) - close combat to get combat rush and buff t

UPDATE: So after some testing, reduced flask charges used on tree (and enchant) works, but the inc. flask charges used on dying sun/vinktar/taste of hate don't apply. This makes flask sustain, even when using the flasks, a lot better. Furthermore, it shotguns! At point blank, you can get any number of projectiles to overlap, so GMP is our best link for single target and clear. As far as I can tell this build definitely has potential ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A lot of discussion concerning the new skill, but I haven't seen many PoB's yet so I figured

Hello everyone This is a follow up post with my discoveries with boneshatter and battlemage's cry working together. Numbers are better than predicted! I'll probably play the hybrid version and ditch skill effect duration nodes. Calculations are from old numbers and should be higher now. about stun duration - it seems its the default quality for boneshatter. I'm trying to stack this now, so it was great timing! Since the AoE caps out at 400% and it gives it in chunks of 15, it was (400 / 15) = 26.67 0.1s = 2.7s stun duration for max AoE. about self damage - even on the skill effect d

Hello Everyone. introduction This week I shared a way of using the new revealed Battlemage's Cry gem here in the sub and went into great thought of coming up with a build that would use it: Boneshatter with Eternal Apple. some cool mechanics The cherry of this build is using Battlemage's cry to support yourself with annoying to cast spells (like Phase Run or any Mark skill gem). Due to gem slot restrictions I decided on dropping phase run in favor of running Poacher's mark and a cwdt 1 + storm brand setup (in hopes of generating frenzy charges on bosses). The other spell I have linked

-------------------------------------------------------- FOREWORD AND NOTES: This build has been adjusted for the great nerfening of builds from the 3.15 patch notes. The bad news is that this build lost a lot of damage, but the good news is that we get multistrike with Shield Charge and it should make this skill good enough. I am currently assuming that Shield Crush will have the same bonus damages apply as Shield Charge, in which it got changed to 4 to 6 from 3 to 4. It is also possible that Shield Crush will have the same bonus damages as Spectral Shield Throw, in which that got changed

Heyo, So i've been working on a shield charge/shield crush Glad making use of bleed and challenger charge nodes for league start. I got to work on this after reading a few other posts regarding this skill and thought I would throw my pob in to the mix for some optimization from the community! &x200B; After seeing " While reviewing this skill, we've made changes to all skills that deal damage based on Shield Defences, greatly boosting their damage. " I am hopeful these buffs were enough to offset the nerfs to melee phys and brutality(both of which this build uses) The build is pretty

Okay, I know there's been quite a few shield crush build theories and discussions recently on this sub. But I've put together a decently geared character on PoB using Shield Charge as an analog and it's actually looking really strong despite lacking the ability to use a strong MH weapon with the good bleed mods you'd find on "normal" bleed builds. &x200B; I made the shield 2500 armour, which I think is perfectly achievable via Deafening Dread essence crafting. And the tree is level 98, which to me is fine because its someth

-------------------------------------------------------- FOREWORD AND NOTES: This is a tweaked build from u/Spandauer2129 because I got bored and wanted to see if it was league start viable. Barring Patch Notes nerfing everything to the ground, I think this is a decent starter. This build was made on 7/17 BEFORE Patch notes. If this is popular enough, I will make better versions and see how far I can push it. I plan on making adjustments to the build once patch notes hit and we get the 3.15 passive tree. This build is intended for easy to get gear that doesn't require a lot of resources or
