PoE Vaal Ice Nova, Nova builds

Hi, 1. sorry, video is explained in Chinese but you can find most info in POB. 2. Is it becuase of player's skill(predict uber's attack and positioning correctly or is it really a cheapest/high dps/high defense build)? No all uber fights are showed in video. 3. Anyway, Zizaran recommended this build and I already get some items(gem, kitiva's thirst zealot helmet, doedre's daming paul ring) and will give it a try. Share for casual playe

As the title says, I want a build that can one-shot legion. I came across this build, but I'm not sure if it's bait or not. Would this build be worth investing into, or should I look elsewhere? I assume it wouldn't make a big difference whether I have a mageblood or not.

Since I only play glass cannon type of builds, I wanted to bring back something I haven't played in a couple of years. It exceeded my expectations but I do not recommend playing unless you want to rely on mechanical skills and a decent amount of luck. It did have a lot more damage than I thought so you could probably shave off like 20-25% of the damage and put in defenses on a different class, I have thought about it.

Build showcase part 1: level 89 gameplay: Level 95 PoB Preface So I had a few days to play around with the build I posted 5 days ago. I got to level 95 very quickly (for my pace)! After a bunch of tree changes and item upgrades I wanted to give a quick summary. _All gear except for uniques and jewels I either found or crafted_ Pros smooth mapping - For some hipst

DISCLAIMER: This isn't meant to be a guide but a proof of concept. While I did play this character straight from day 1 of the league, I don't really recommend it early because it's a bit clunky before Divergent Berserk and Lethal Pride appeared on trade which was around day 3, and also the playstyle is really active. Thought I'd share the idea behind the build I used to get 38 Challenges this league. Buffs to self-cast this league made me once again reconsider the viability of Fanaticism, a buff intended to be used for self-casters provided by Instruments of Zeal from the Inquisitor ascendan

Edit: Updated without spellsinger and with a cwdt defensive setup. I'll update the new pob, but this is where I have reached. 1. 4.5k health 2.3k es 500 es regen 2. 27k armour 87% phys dmg mit 3. ailment immunity 4. 60% spell block with glancing blows 5. 82% crit chance 430% mult ( can get 100% by using inc crit chance instead of intensify, and it'll save 6-7 points) 6. 1.8m sirius dps with 3 intensity stacks and every buff up (assuming 4x mult from spell echo) Someone posted their pob for this build ( I'll look up who it was) and said this was a dps focused version. I tinkered aroun

I'm currently running frost bolt/ice nova, and the damage is good enough (deathless a5 sirus was easy peasy), but the clear is mediocre despite huge AoE because the spell combo requires a significant amount of standing in place. Additionally when things get hectic it's really easy to miss casting a frost bolt which can end up with me either casting ice nova with no frost bolts (which is much lower dps) or casting ice nova on frost bolts that are already really far from me (frequently resulting in dying). I'm getting kinda tired of the gameplay being so clunky leading to enough deaths to have

Frostbolt ice nova battlemage seems like a really fun direction to take the new ascendancy, but there seem to be a lot of limiting factors on it in either the 2h or wander varieties. 2H - this seems best as a pure ice nova build, since pledge of hands is very nice, but cwc cyclone seems unappealing since cwc can be awkward with charging fanaticism. Snap casting cyclone every second seems very tedious. Wand - this seems appealing to me, since it gives easy access to frenzy or power charges and spellslinger will be much smoother with gaining fanaticism stacks. However, you miss pledge of ha

Hi everyone, When Trinity Support was announced I was pretty hyped. My first instinct is to abuse it with a support spell that uses a different element and exists for the sole purpose of generating resonance for your main skill. As it gives 50% more elemental damage and 20% elemental penetration, it is one of the most powerful supports available to elemental self cast spells. Luckily, there is already a powerful self-cast build involving a 2 spell combo: Frostbolt - Ice Nova. This build utilizes a lightning damage Frostbolt to grant
