PoE Hexblast, League Starter builds

So I've been playing selfcast Hexblast ignite as an Inquisitor for my league starts for quite some time now, and I decided to take it to endgame. Ended up going Occultist and converting Ignite damage to Chaos with Blackflame and about 15m Ignite DPS (100m total damage per ignite). The character is very tanky as it has 90% all res, maxblock and is CI with Incandescent Heart for Extra Ele damage mitigation. Currently there is no one playing Hexblast in this way on Poe Ninja so I guess you could call this an "off meta build" lol :). I do like the Ignite playstyle and maybe there are some fello

First off, let me get this out of the way. This isn't going to be a meta build, there's probably better selfcast builds than this too, and i'm sure mines will do better damage. I just hate mines and don't want to play it, and wanted to see what I can do with Archmage on leaguestart. Also many of the more popular ways to scale hexblast involve some very expensive uniques, and since most traditional archmage items are relatively cheap (Ivory Tower <5c launch day). I thought it might be a decent league starter, so lets give it a try. It does roughly 20M Pinnacle Boss DPS, and some PoB warr

This is a build i have been playing for a few leagues in a row, decided to share for anyone interested hmu with questions if you have any &x200B; POB:

Make sure you pick the right tree, gear set and skills (disable others) for whatever part of the build you're at, also change doom accordingly (30 is base) If you want to use Berek's Respite or Abberath's Hooves, make sure you're not using Ignite Proliferation or it breaks the chains. Get Singularity when you can, otherwise use an item like the rare wand in the PoB items Emperor's Vigilance is disgustingly strong and lets us have max spell/attack block until we go to staff with no downside from GB In transition, either enlighten main auras

get alchemists mark effect enchant if it exists (30% mark effect is from this, otherwise get hexblast aoe, despair effect or an aura reservation ig) problems that im willing to drop some damage for: - no phys mitigation (grav mod on chest) - no spell suppression (gonna write this off as too hard to cap without dropping too much ES for comfort) max res on shield - mana (no room for clarity, can't go EB and CI) - maybe swap to life and go EB? idk - recovery sucks - maybe.........drop profane bloom.....................yikes maybe swap wand base to accumulator if ur nasty, i just used driftw

Hi all! So I've decided to try to theorycraft something simple for my first leaguestart without using a guide made by ziz, jungroan, pathofmath, and the like. I'm interested in an ignite build and eventually settled on hexblast ignite because playing with curses also seemed fun. I made a POB and it's hitting 8mill ignite dps on guardians on gear that shouldn't cost more than 7 or 8 ex I think by the second or third week of league. Is this too good to be true? Maybe I invested too little in defenses or something. &x200B; Any input would be appreciated ! :) &x200B; POB:[

My skeleton POB: I like playing ignites, but still want something that plays a bit smoother than EA totems. I currently have 1.3mil Sirus ignite dps with around 30-40c league start investment. &x200B; POB has level 20 gems with no quality, 90%inc life and 140% ES, plus almost capped chaos res from just ascendancy and Blackflame. So there is plenty of room for improvement. Ideas include getting ashes of the stars and divergent Hexblast to help boost dps a lot. Then I have pathed down into the trickster area, but I th

Hi Everyone! I hope you're all having an amazing league! I'm back with another follow-up on my league starter, which was an Ignite Hexblast Elementalist. Recently I've swapped into Occultist, hence a few things have changed. 1. Blackflame - Enemies ignited take chaos damage 2. Replace Windshreek with a solid pair of boots, life, res, Ignites deal damage faster implicit and Increased action speed implicit 3. +1 curse body armor to replace the additional curse from Windshreek 4. Ashes of the Stars is a solid amulet, will help with mana reservation, must be very well rolled and prob a

Hey all, saw the huge Hexblast buffs and I think it is a sleeper skill for ignite anyway so decided to pull the trigger and build out an inquisitor version of the popular ignite build. I've included trees for level 100, 95, 90, and 80. Updated PoB: Notes on configuration: I simulated the hexblast buffs by adding in the custom modifiers tab. Also wanted to simulate Flaming Surge burning ground effect. Minimum shock effect is applied, although you may get higher given the huge hits from HB. Chill and shock comes from Hexblast itself since it can shock/ignite/f

Hi, guys! I've been POBing this build since the Flame Surge rework was announced. I think after the recent pob push, I can share it. I play SSSFHC so this build is quite tanky. If that's not your thing, simply go clusters and get 3-10x the DPS. 10/21 Edit: I don't plan to update this even after LocalIdentity1 pushes out the new POB. I will simply make another post a week after league start concerning my progress. If you have questions, IGN: LefthandedIRL &x200B; With decent SSF gear (Day 8 or 9 or lvl 97-98) ^(The
