I was taking a look at the new skill gem Pyroclast Mine of Sabotage and thinking of ways to utilise that huge flat added fire damage from the mine aura. I wanted something that hit often but required minimal input from me so I could focus on throwing mines. my character if it had lived to level 90. I settled on trying the AW minions from Chains of Command, utilising the Rakiata's Dance Greatsword for the elemental resist inversion. I got the character to level 80, but was a little confused about how little damage I seemed to be d

I wanted to league start CF Champion this league, but after the suggested changes from KB wander to Spectral throw, I though I'd try to find another option. Thus the Blade Flurry channeling Reap/Exsanguinate, Corrupting Fever / Corrupting Cry Champion was born. From act 6 to 2 watchstones this has been super comfortable, 8/10 clear, 8/10 bossing, basically a one button build, for less than 150C invested. Run up to a pack, short channel, pack explodes, hit CF to keep Adrenaline up every 20 seconds, hit boss with Vaal Reap and

Sharing my latest build and hoping someone will see some improvements that can be made. Galvanic field has some downsides: Low AOE and poor hit rate. We get around the AOE by slotting a Phantasmal GV into a Crest of Desire, and Scaling mana with Heirophant. This gives GV domes usually a couple of screens of area. The beams fire from the centre of the dome and dont go through walls or obsticles, so open maps work better. GV can fire 10 times per second but only hit the same enemy twice per second, and these cannot be sca

Just prior to league start, I theorycrafted a couple of builds: a Hexblast Occultist and a RF/Searing Bond Cheiftan. At he last minute I decided to go with the Cheiftan as the defences looked more solid, and I couldn't be happier. This has been the smoothest, easiest league start I've experienced, and one of the strongest builds I've played in my 1200 hours in POE. Thus far, I've invested a grand total of 25c on this build, and 22c of that was on the amulet. Close to 1m DPS with pretty average gear and cheap-as-mud uniques
