PoE Impale, Trap builds

First of all, I would like to thank my boys. Owen Tseng, JOJO, big brain time just before league. Hoeji, the tester. And GTO59673, the finance supporter. Here's my test result of reduced projectile speed spectral helix. Spectral helix can always spiral up to 4.25 rotations, and the projectile speed does not affect the rotation distance. In my test, I found the number of total hits versus projectile speed was limited to 36 hits against this little totem. Further, the hit rate decreased to around 0.5 h

Hello, So I really wanted to build around Champion, NB and Perseverance. I thought ele would be too meta and thought that impale with call of steel would feel smooth enough, tried leveling with SH a few leagues ago and it was awful. Though perma Onslaught, Adrenaline and tailwind/new implicit might make it smoother. I've crafted a bunch of gear and made a pob (first time building one from scratch) but have no idea what is good for SH - aps, avg hit and what not. Obviously I went overboard with the spell suppression in the defau

Hello bros, I'm trying my own build with aim to 24/40 this league. Spectral Helix is on the menu with Vanguard belt and champion as a class. So far so good - doing some low red maps, but I'm starting to have some issues going forward. The idea is to be really tanky (armour + evasion + some spell supp + fortify) and have enough dps to finish of lv 85 bosses. Budget is around 10 ex. Obviously the rings need to be changed, but what else? I'm not even sure if I'm trying to scale Impale dmg correctly (well, just hit hard with flat phys duh..). I would love to switch to 1h + shield, but the dmg ta

About me: 5th league played, 1500 hours. I have a job but I took some time off the beginning of this week to play more. Pre-league prep: Played to 85 in SSF Archnem on a 4-link spectral helix with Life Gain on Hit support. the damage was fine for T10 yellow maps. May 14 end of day 1 POB: Bought the Magnate, Wyrmsign, the gull for less than 20c. Started going hard on chaos recipe with the enhancer in heist to buy a couple of exalts early. Breezed through white and yellow maps. Bought the jewel with RMR corruption on a

Howdy friends Had a couple questions with a wildly underused skill I'm not going to stand up here and claim that blade trap is good.... But I do like being extremely off meta at all times lol. So divergent blade trap makes your blades go "faster"..... I'm of the opinion that this means instead of over 4 seconds... You do all 10-12 of your hits over less time? With enhance, and divergent BT and ashes, this gives us 148% increased rotation speed..... So will this do the damage over 2ish seconds rather than 4? Provided we can throw enough traps quick enough, this should create a nice more

POB: I figured this was a better way to showcase how tanky this build could be.

POB: With my shield crush pathfinder farming about 3-4 Ex an hour in T16 -> Delve rotations with a 1Ex budget I started to accumulate currency pretty quickly despite the rather casual play. It was now time for me to pick a scaling build that would allow me to clear all content and allow me to complete the league challenges solo. Having seen the new ascendancy jewels I really wanted to try fitting in Masterful Form on a Champion or Gladiator just because I've always loved the concept of charge stacking even from closed be

This is my slow tempo league starter, and its facetanking minotaur and hydra at once, boss dps is around 3 mil. Yes, I admire uberdan, and it is my copied version of his last league 'hipster spectral helix ascendent. I am sc trade player and tried to integrate new mechanics like precise technique, mark on hit support with frenzy charge generation mastery, intimidate implicit on gloves(red exarch currency, lowest tier is fine I think). I havent tried boneshatter, but I just love spectral helix style which does not need further in

Before it gets voided, just wanted some feedback on a build I'm currently running on Endless Heist POB Only level 40 so far so it's not a full build So I started out wanting to go Poison Seismic Traps, but on the way wanted to try Impale Seismic Traps, then realised I couldn't really go Impale Seismic and went for Impale Blade Traps. I think there's some defensive and offensive synergy between Blind, Lower Accuracy from Dread Banner and the reduced damage and accuracy from Enfeeble and Sabo Blind. So when I have enemies blind

Okay so this build kind of originated off of one of my favorite unique swords Dreadbeak. The idea is to boost base damage with bloodthirst and reserve exactly or slightly above 50% of life for permanent low life. Now you may say, but adrenaline can be abused so easily if you just reserve at 51%, and I'll say 6 auras/buffs with very good aura effect. Instead of creating a gigantic block of text I'll try to note all the advantages with formatting I'm not used to. Exactly or close to 50% reservation using a herald of purity and a high level vita
