So this is my current build I'm working towards right now. There are two versions of the build 1. a budget version which is the gear that I currently have equipped right now with almost no investment (like less than a divine at this point aside from foible) 2. the endgame version which is the gear and tree I'm hoping to get towards as the league progresses Both versions have a separate skill tree, gem links, and gear in the dropdowns. My idea here is that everyone seems to be playing lightning conduit, which is an awesome skill and very fun to play, but I wanted to take a unique spin on it

Hey everyone! Posted a few days ago about theorizing poison BV Trickster due to the ascendancy changes. After some edits and feedback from some amazing people, the build feels like it's in a solid place to start testing out tomorrow. Forum link: 3.19 Starter/SSF PoB Version: 3.19 Endgame/Trade PoB Version: Any feedback is much appreciated!
So I've made builds for myself in the past, but for the most part, they've been fairly simple. Forbidden Rite has had my eye for a while now, and with the Trickster rework, decided to try to make my FR build also be my first new Trickster. Without further ado, Notable things about it: EB + MoM with a bunch of ES leech. These allow for an easy Divine Blessing Aura, solving any real mana issues. Vitality + a bit of recoup (more can be put on rare jewels if it still feels bad) to help with the life cost. Arctic Armor because I need pdr and it got buffed (also freeze
Above is a rough day 1 plan for my LS Trickster. I'm going the full armor/ev route because it's easier to get eHP early on, especially vs phys damage, and it also allows me to grab 13 different masteries that synergize with the build. I know Heartstopper is a controversial node, but I feel like it will smooth out the damage I'm taking, even if I don't always notice it or run into some bad rng. Any advice? I realize Champion does armor/ev LS better probably, but I'm really looking forward to trying out Trickster.

Rambling follows: I've been wanting to run a non-crit lightning build as long as I've been aware of the mastery, but never managed to make a decent enough PoB. I always end up all over the place. I'm excited for the new lightning skills and the trickster rework. Everytime I'm tinkering with lightning builds I'm kinda lost on the main skill even. I'd like to get power out of Orb of Storms, so I'd like a skill that I can spam, but I feel they're all clunky one way or other. And I feel like I'm missing some tricks to get dps up anyway. I'm not looking to make a build that can faceroll ubers, but

This is a build I'm planning to league start. It probably does and will suck. But I'd be happy for feedback on it anyway. Maybe there are other players like me who don't assume that all these fancy things people put on builds are attainable and want a no-budget ssf build, or this build may just be useful input to someone somehow. It's got 100% spell supp, 13k max phys hit, 90% evasion, and 110k dps. This is without shock, onslaught or power charges (though I am doing shock, onslaught and assassins mark on hit). It uses smoke

I had an idea on the Trickster to use BV with the reworked Obliteration and Ming's Heart for potential 200% physical added as chaos damage. It gives great damage, and 40% explode chance. I'm concerned about the squishiness though. It's got a few defensive layers built in. Would anyone have any suggestions overall?
Hey guys, i finally put together a POB for a lightning strike trickster. &x200B; This is my league starter ( hopefully) and what im trying to achieve gear wise in the first 10 days to 2 weeks ( depending on how much i can play). Im looking for ideas, suggestions, improvements. I'm not very good with POB, so i will appreciate any feedback. The idea is to scale this all league. Last league i made about 2 mirrors in currency in a month a half of play, so i think i can scale this thing quite a bit. Do you think is viable? The

So, just as a heads up, I'm not a build maker and I consider myself a professional casual player. I haven't beaten most endgame bosses with about 2k hours. But, back in 3.8 ( I think) I stumbled across a full evasion Trickster TR/Ballista and it was the best build I'd played. Surprisingly tanky, reached 92 and killed sirus for the first time with it. Leagues passed and the build didn't work anymore. &x200B; Now with trickster reworks, I tried to build a suppress, evasion, "low life" version. I based it on a raider version I took from Poe ninja and in terms of dps, totem dps is pretty mu

Hello my good exiles, &x200B; I, like many other Shadow fans, have been drooling over the new Trickster while at the same time, struggling to find a good build that could utilize its defensive layers. After a lot of deliberation, I've settled on giving Blazing Salvo Miner a try, but it just feels way too bad to do Trickster without utilizing that tasty Soul Drinker. So, I thought about Machina Mitts Unique Gloves and Ghost Reaver (I know, I know, but hear me out). PoB here: >Machina Mitts makes

I found a build from /u/Dex8172 and made some tweaks to make it my own. Configuration is assuming a mapping setup, but two 5L's should net 1.5mil DPS with a lot of sustain. Would likely scale to 4-5mil with more significant investment. Should be a decent well-rounded league start, but will be slow for bossing. Going for leech nodes to make use of energy leech and the mastery to sustain the increased dot dps on bosses. Will have capped spell suppression and 16 masteries at level 93, surely. I could be convinced to drop charges a
average hit x (3.2 (cluster) or 1.8 (swift assembly)) x (1/trap throw rate) x of explosions I believe this is how to calculate explosive trap damage. I might be underestimating or overestimating the dps here. 149657 1.8 (1/0.27) 11 = 10,974,846 million dps. Bottled faith puts dps to about 18 million. Ignore other flasks, they're for if you have a mageblood. Polymath applied in config, 9 3 for 27% more damage. Polymath gets most value from going hybrid, to double up on recovery.

Then I'm going to add the new alch mark and lean into the chaos/poison. I have 11 different useful masteries for Polymath. Defensively, I'm focused in on Evasion and ES.
