PoE Critical Strike Affliction builds

So, I basically exclusively play self-made builds that are usually at least somewhat off-meta. Those builds vary widely in their success and often end up failing. However, every once in a while an idea works out. This is looking to be one of those ideas. Non-Reaper bleed minions have been a bit of a "white whale" of mine. I've probably crammed out dozens of PoBs with good enough damage numbers, but they mostly just ended up feeling pretty bad in real gameplay. This one felt pretty nice however. I present to you: Frenzy Stacking - Charge Sharing - Rupture - Crit - Bleed - Herald of Agony -

Asenath's Gentle Touch is cheap AF this league and makes PBV insane ATM for farming T16s. Ming's Heart + chaos catalyst is crazy damage for phys poison builds. Obliteration is also pretty crazy. Arcanist Brand BFBB makes the build's bossing much more acceptable for dumb fights, and is a moderate investment gear swap. The tree is set up for fast shield charging + QoL things like big AoE for mapping, inc. skill duration, unleash seals, charge on kill, etc. Despite all of this it absolutely slaps damage-wise. PoBs are fluffed up a bit because of low life settings. Feel free to add '15% less da

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

Ziz: Lily: -------IMPORTANT NOTES-------- Keep blade fall at lvl 1 for mana cost and spell cascade at level 1 in your blade fall setup (it gives you more damage due to less blade spread) YOU NEED EITHER A MANA FLASK OR SHAPER RING WITH +MANA ON SPELL HIT TO SUSTAIN MANA WITH BLADE BLAST Use Chance to Poison support gem until you get 100% chance to poison without it through glove eldritch implicit / jewels Swap out Grace for Malevolence on boss fights You can use the covenant chest piece + mings heart if you w

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.

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

Im handicapped and it gets to hard for me to keep track of all the different items, cluster jewels, skill tree changes and mechanics an endgame build needs, therefore i'm looking for help. Different ways to poison with spark Volkuur's Guidance (looses to much dmg) Phantasmal spark + Voltaxic Rift Phantasmal spark + Ashes of the Stars (new unique amulet) and a selfcrafted Coc bow with haku crafted quality gets you to 96% converted lightning dmg to chaos. Ashes of the Stars Onyx Amulet. +(10-16) to all Attributes 7% increased Experience Gain of Gems 12% increased Reservation Efficie

Ever since BV got buffed, I theorycrafted on the possible BV builds and ofc, poison BV has always been a staple. In this build, I tried to find a parallel to the popular nightblade poison builds and looked for an efficient way to scale spell poison. I think this efficient method could be power charge stacking with Fenumus toxins. With a redeemer chest you could later even go badge of the brotherhood for another 30% more damage and better wither uptime. On a side note: Cold iron point scales determination, defiance banner, herald of purity/agony. 60% more in the config is to account for the

Hey everyone, working on a new build and could need some imput, since right now it seems rather bad, but it looks like something I would enjoy playing. PoB-Link

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
