PoE Blood Magic builds without The Ivory Tower

[I dont play cyclone ever so i would like some tips for the concept i have in mind.](

I posted here a few weeks ago about recovering some of my Armageddon Brand Ignite damage after the patch (I went from about 3mil to 300k). Here is my current character loaded directly into PoB with minor skill tree tweaks. A lot of people told me to abandon the build, that it was dead etc. I knew I had shitty gear and even after the nerfs I can still kill A9 Conquerers with low mods. I know that the damage and survivability is there for this build, I just need help finding it. The map clear on this build feels amazing, and it's quite tanky I just need some bet

Chimera (same but with sound): Minotaur: Headline: 9+k life, 1 Boneshatter DPS on poe.ninja. Managed to upgrade a few more pieces and cleared Feared/Maven (caveat: not smoothly since melee) from my last update on min-maxing PotCG Boneshatter Jugg. Pros: Big bonks without warcry pianoing, easy to play. Strength scales both damage and s

This build revolves around running around with reverse knockback cyclone, blowing things up with Molten Shell, triggered with reflected damage from Hiltless and Defy Pain. Transcendence is necessary, because otherwise, a pathetic ~7k phy hit from defy pain would only tickle the molten shell. In PoB, this build is near-immortal with enough damage for end-game content. Super fast boss kill speed when you can get Vaal molten shell up. The only thing strong enough to kill it, is itself (or any other large phy hit while molten shell is down.) But I have some concern

Have been getting a few whispers about this so sharing my current attempt to push PotCG BS as far as it can go. Currently at lvl 95 with 9+k life, 1.6+k str, and around 7-9M conservative dps. The clear is great and I've been doing some Tropical Island Zana Delirium farming quite smoothly with it. Bossing is mediocre as it's still a melee strike skill but at least the tankiness allows for some mistakes if you are a bad mechanic player like me. Boneshatter really needs some investment in stun duration to feel good so fra

With the changes to monsters HPs, our damage reduction and survivability, I think it's time to dust off my Bodyswap chieftain. I cannibalized this one from an obscure 3.1 and 3.9 builds, where the first one was truthful, the other had half the damage boosted in typical POB warrior, fashion and was crit based, and brought it to the modern age of 3.15. --- POB Settings: Shaper, no bullshit damage multipliers Flask off, (except MS-old one). Vaal auras off RF OFF (can be probably turned on). Vaal RF Off Hexproof (curse off) --- Skills: Wave of convict

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

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

This is one of those "cautionary tales/let me know if I fucked this up because the build is actually cool as shit it just does zdps and its sadge" posts. But I wanted to try the new support gem Bloodthirst, but the numbers on it seemed really mediocre, so I made the best possible go of it by utilizing everyone's least favorite Uber Elder drop, Voidforge, and stacking a lot of hp to reach seemingly insane amounts of flat damage. In a theoretical sense, adding almost 200 flat physical to the sword with a 300% multiplier seemed like a recipe for success. Doing napkin math I realized I could t
