PoE Blackflame builds

Hello you fine people. Because i always get invested in conversations about the Maw of Mischief / Death Wish build i thought, i make a post of my own so i can just link it in the future. Im not saying its the best version of the build. I know there are plenty of ways to play it and i know the version of mine is not the most softcore way of building it. Feel free to comment and / or tell me if theres something you would change or something i just missed. --- Lets start with the pob: Its a mix of items from past seasons and some created ones so its not maxed ou

Hello, Long story short: I wanted to farm some simuls/deeper delve so I picked some builds on poe ninja depth ladder and tried to get similar stuff. I ended up with this: Tried some content like guardians, shaper, architect (depth <150), simul. And I noticed I really lack dmg. I believe my survivability is okayish. I failed simul at wave 26 or 27. Took me 10 mins to deal 1/3 of boss dmg at that wave. I do not really know how this DD stuff works exactly and how to configure PoB for that (side question: why do ppl use desecrate whi

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

I was looking at Echoforge, and with the Shaper of Flames node + Blackflame I am feeling some potential with Shock + Ignites + Poison + Profane bloom. Chose Viper strike as its the only attack that poisons and works with a sword. This is not a complete build or anything of the sort, just theorycrafting. If anyone else has good ideas that might help this work I'd love to hear it! :) I imagine we probably want Withering step and chaos resistance curses so I picked up +1 curse on the tree as well. Very Very rough POB: &amp;x2

Let me preface this with two things. 1. This is an update to the build I posted 2 days ago. Although now I feel it is not just decent, but actually good. 2. I believe this build will have slightly better numbers in 3.20 since we are getting some pretty big buffs to curses but we are also losing base effects of curses, hexblast just has worse numbers for self cast and occultist is getting some minor nerfs. But it will feel much better, since now you don't have to manage doom mechanics. Now into the build itsef. The build has three levels, based around investment. 1. The first level i

Tinkering around a bit with the build I managed to get over 2 million sirus dot dps with pretty low investment (pretty much all of it is used on blackflame). But honestly that works for me considering how shitty all the gear is + and the fact that is dot dps. Defensively the build is lacking, but I feel that the capped glancing blows + temporal chains as an aura makes it tolerable for softcore. The build is mainly centered around 2 things, blackflame and doomblast to trigger elemental overload. With better gear like a cane of kulemak and actually decent rares I feel like the build can be go

This is the one build I played this league to 40/40. It was very fun and definitely kept me playing when I was on the fence. The PoB is of my current character. Typically I get to a point where it's "enough" to cruise through challenges and I stop prioritizing build investment, so I'm pretty confident it has room for improvement as-is (e.g. helmet w/-chaos res, watcher's eye, faster ignites synth staff, +3 corrupted chest), and definitely has room for improvement if you want to go more glass cannon. I'm also not usually good at making builds, so I could very well be missing somethin

So I saw this build on poe.ninja last week some time and unfortunately it has gone missing. The idea for the build was to use The Covenant along with two Consuming Dark's to convert most fire to chaos, and then channel Incinerate to trigger Bodyswap to move around. I'm not the greatest at making my own builds but I've taken a couple ideas and I'm trying to merge them together. For defence I feel that utilizing "While Stationary" effects sounds quite promising, that is why I have added Natural Affinity, and why I am also using Arctic Armour. When it comes to scaling damage, I am pretty lost.

I want to preface this by saying I am not good at making builds and I haven't played for a few months. It's certainly not "finished", and who knows how easy/hard uniques are going to be to get. Just wanted to put it out there so someone could fix it haha. Brief overview: Elementalist Frostblink Ignite Staff Block New Bronn's Lithe Blackflame seemed neat assuming it works like I think it does and makes the ignite skip enemy ES EDIT: Thanks for the feedback. Still WIP. V2

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. &amp;x200B; Any input would be appreciated ! :) &amp;x200B; POB:[

I didn't set out to do this, but I was asked by several people about discharge. It just wasn't popular this league. So I wrote this guide. Any feedback would be great. My to do list so far is 1. combine the 3 POBS I discuss into 1 2. link items into the forum thread Any other suggestions or feedback would be appreciated.

So I have been trying to have an impaling build that ignites and use the blackflame ring. Blackflame ring for the exclusive reason of I like purple. So I was trying to figure out how to do it without sacrificing too much from one aspect or the other. Been using the weapon Paradoxica to try to mitigate that. Going with the idea that if I can get 100% physical damage as extra fire I can just stack physical damage and the fire I get will be enough to ignite. One of the issues I have been having is my ignite is a little low. I thought that by hav
