PoE Elementalist, Shaper of Flames, Strike builds

Posting my build idea I've been working on so i can get any tips for improvement in the comments and also as inspiration to my fellow melee ignite hype men. I think this has great potential and it has a lot of room for upgrades when i farm up the currency for it. However i will say i do plan on playing this character as fire trap/Frostblink until i can self farm Story Of The Vaal and Dyadian Dawn because i think starting level 1 as melee ignite will still be kinda painful lmao.

I'm going to try to keep it short and sweet, Inferno blow with controlled blaze is very good on paper. Open to any criticism and changes, the tree kinda triggers me lol. Controlled blaze in calcs setup to 70% more ignite for single target. Day 1 level 80 Swap: You level as arma/crema/Woc then change when you get story of the vaal. Multistrike and ruthless do not work well with Infernal blow sadly so Haste is mega important to get good attack speed numbers. Possible endgame setup: Calc stuff is just tatoos with red nightmare

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

hey, guy i have got a pob for my 3.22 starter and would like some input and ideas from the community . Two things i have to say before you look at it: The custom modifier 100% more damage with ignites is there to simulate the Ruthless gem changes The deadly ailments gem ist most likely going to be swapped for the new controlled blaze support Pob:

Melee Ignite?! During the league in which they removed Divine Inferno, gutting 60% of the archetypes damage? Yeah, I know. It had to be done. Vaal Smite raining down divine judgement upon the entire screen was something I decided I could not pass up on. Its an Elementalist that takes advantage of both shaper of flames and shaper of storms in a trinity setup to get bonuses to shock and ignite. It also takes advantage of Echoes of Creation, using warcries to augment the skill and increase the damage. Finally, we get fortify from the tree. I'm using two full-strength damage curses triggered

Hello pob warriors!The current meta is boring me terribly so I wanted to create something of my own. In my poe career I've always had it happen that in some league someone created a very cool starter but in the next league it was already unplayable when I wanted to play it (I'm talking about you guys... flameslinger and burning arrrow...) However, I think I managed to make burning arrow work again, and I mean elemental hit ignite. I read on the wiki that ignite damage is based on the biggest hit so I thought I could convert all damage into fire and block with combat focus. In a nutshell I ac

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
