PoE Elementalist, Wave of Conviction, Melee builds

Hey all, I think I've got a decent iteration of an Ignite build, but want it looked at in case I missed something. I also make zero promises on the cost of this build, though the fact the "PoB Warrior" setup uses Ashes of the Stars but not Mageblood makes me want to estimate it at like 150-200 divines for that version, except the staff is probably never happening in real gameplay. PoB: Note that the PoB is set to the less cracked out gear with Punishment and Convergence not activated. Toggle Enemy on Low Life to enable punishment's damage boost. Highlights:

Here we go, concept of a build I'm toying since this evening, after someone threw at me the idea of melee elemental hit, me answering it was shit, him holding his ground, and me checking a bit more and finding insane synergies about it. Concept of the build: \- Elementalist, because the damage is just that good and shaper of storm is clutch. Slayer is an alternative. \- Elemental hit, replacing your weapon with an attack doing a large amount of flat damage. You use the usual suspect to block cold and lightning, even if I toyed w

Introduction Hello there, PinguinTorpedo here with my take on a melee ignite build in 3.20. There was a lot of discussion that melee builds in general are in really bad spot. Especially ignite builds with the removal of the Divine Inferno jewel. I came up with an Ice Crash Ignite Elementalist that should be pumping 5.1m to 26m in a mapping environment, 9m to 17m against standard bosses and arounnd 2.4m to 4.2m Uber dps with 4s ignite uptime. The damage range exisits because of the interaction of the key items. In the Damage Output section i will go in detaill about the dama

A few people have been talking about the potential of ephemeral edge, trying to work around the low attack speed. One way to not care about attack speed is to do ignite build. This has several big more multipliers, a decently fun playstyle if you don't mind slow slamming, big aoe from elementalist and huge tanky potential from a fat ES pool. It also scales very well with gear. Warning: super slow attacking melee build, certainly not for everyone (it might even just be unplayable). PoB: This pob is a fairly realistic day 3-4 version with 9k energy shield, 1.8mi

The Build: (staff) You could also go for a Rebuke + Aegis Setup, though Aegis is expensive: A bit of a meme, but check it out if you like the idea of melee ignites. The gearing is pretty easy, and proliferation is neat. \- Elemental Overload Divine Shield \- Life/ES on Block \- Ice, Stone, Chaos, and Flame Golems \- Divine Inferno + Infernal Cry for Melee Ignite scaling \- Gem Swap Enduring cry for survivability or Ancestral cry for better clear

I like these short-format events for testing build ideas or trying out certain builds/skills I don't want to devote a full league to. With the massive number of uniques that were dropping, Atlas Invasion was the perfect opportunity to try out an idea that I have had for a while, and it exceeded my expectations. I felt it was worth sharing both because I think it has some potential, I think it's interesting, it may inspire others to explore the possibilities with this sword, and I know a lot of folks like to complain about the lack of build variety. Keep in mind that this build is not min/maxed

Hi there, &x200B; So while all the league starter builds are flying around, I thought I would share my own take. This is something I have been planning since morning (11:20 pm here, FML. League will begin for me for me after 8 hrs). &x200B; It is an Earthquake Ingite Elementalist, using just 3 items. This is a placeholder, a template. You can use the other slots to fill in whatever reqd. The resistances are covered by using a custom resistance declaration. &x200B;

This is my take on a brain rattler elementalist for the mega shocks! Wondering if anyone has any ideas to increase the damage on the build, but the idea is it has near capped phys reduction and between aegis and increased capped res should be quite tanky vs elements as well. It is intended to be off meta, I am not using golems because you just slap them on any skill and its great. I tried to utilize the basically never used keystone power of purpose, although maybe it would be better to scrap that and just go MoM instead... let me know what you think! Also I just like EQ as a slam, you could c

Pob fork: Disclaimer: I only play solo/with IRL friends, so this is technically SSF. I don't give a fuck about meta, I play to have fun. I league started with this build in mind and created it as I went. So, this is honestly my very first self-made build. So far so good, both the clear and single target feel good. I stumbled upon the combination of Sniper's Mark (spellslinger) + Pierce. You never have to think about what target is marked due to the fact that Marks are no longer a namelock skill. It also works beautifully because of how Subprojectiles work now:
