PoE Assassin, Withering Step builds

Ventrua had put out a poison BV occultist for league start but I also like to play Assassin and it's more point efficient (though potentially still worse than Occultist), so I thought I'd share my work. All of these PoBs are built on top of Ventrua's PoB. These builds will focus on incorporating alternatives to Profane Bloom as a priority. Level as PConc, poison traps, or I can recommend cobra lash + tornado if you know what to do with league starting claw/daggers. League Start Target lvl 88 Obliteration setup: Post Start Target

Levelling 1-12 - mule Splitting Steel with a Duelist start, link with Onslaught and Chance to Bleed Early links Splitting Steel - Onslaught - Chance to Poison / Chance to Bleed Key Act 1 Vendor Gems - Precision - Whirling Blades - Smoke Mine - Spectral Helix - Withering Step - Steelskin 12-55 - Spectral Helix - Onslaught - Chance to Poison (swaps to Added Chaos after Normal Lab) ^

this is the path of building link it is a shadow assassin cobra lash build

Took a Poison Spec Helix build from poe ninja and converted it into a possible league start. I like the idea of utilizing blind, elusive, and the crit swift affliction. Looking for feedback on how to make this a bit tankier.

Hello people, I need your help! I am currently working on a build for fun, which at least on paper looks very good.The main task of the build will definitely be mapping. If you're bored, and you might be up for something like this, you could take a look at it please. Any help for more damage - and especially more survivability are VERY WELCOME. Goals for this build:\- Relatively "cheap"- Limit mainly to rares if possible- very fast mapping and also good single target if needed Edit 0.4

Budget is 100-110 ex and 47ex of that was ashes. Instant dps is \~20m and poison is 60m but it takes 5 seconds reach that. Mapping is pretty fast with rain of arrows, explosions from clusters and herald of ash instead of defiance banner: 251% quant feared Can do all ubers but exarch balls and eater tentacle slams can one shot

20Mil DPS, 14,7 Mil without Focus, 45k AR 45k EVA flasked, 60/45/60k max hit. Leveraging BV with Dual Curse, Dot multi with Crits and some moderate gem level scaling. Besides maybe helmet and gloves, the rares can be made in a couple of essences and a fractured mod. The militant faith is also pretty flexible, opted for aura effect and ele res to completely dodge gear pressure. This PoB is set for single target, I would probably opt for Delirium explodey boots, asenaths or even explodey body armour for clear or just a good old we

Just like the title says, i don't wonna be clapped almost every map. How can i survive t16? here's pob:

Completely new to both Shadow and Poison. Can someone help me with this build? Playing standard.

Spectres are Lithomancer and Stoneskin Flayer, keeping spectre PoB life quite low

SHITTY THINGS TO CONFIG PROPERLY - elusive effect, inc elusive effect from claw, the varying effect from withering step and nightblade resets and effect of all these on dot multi via Perfect Agony - full life vs low life vs neither - helix of hits - EHP from elusive - Focus uptime (especially taking into account player skill and timing) Levelling 1-12 - mule Splitting Steel with a Duelist start, link with Onslaught and Chance to Bleed Early links Splitting Steel - Onslaught - Chance

POB: (edited for Anomalous Blood Rage) VoD: Simulacrum: comment League started this build and it's quite impressive. Killed all content up to and including end game bosses, but not tested against "aspirational" content such as 100% Delirious T17s. Huge damage, poison proliferation, whirling blades, and near infinite fl
