PoE Simulacrum builds with custom stat filters

I commented in a thread about my CI Poison Spark build the other day, and there seemed to be some interest about my approach to what is quite a popular build this league, so I thought I'd make a post. My philosophy is that I want to hit the DOT cap, with good Wither uptime, and after that I focus on hit damage and defenses, namely in the amount of a high ES pool. At 10.31 casts per second (11.27 with Smite active), the build is extremely mobile and generally hits the DOT cap in 2-3 seconds, depending on the arena. I eschew Awakened Deadly Ailments and Awakened Unbound Ailments in favor of A

Saw somebody post their Poison Winter Orb build earlier today and thought I'd share the Poison Ball Lightning I made. It's more or less identical to Poison Spark, both in tree and gameplay feel, except for bossing when I swap gems and rings. You (probably) shouldn't play this? It does feel a tiny bit worse than Poison Spark in doing most things. But it was a nice change of pace for a bit, and I have a strong suspicion that as long as you have an Original Sin, you could get Ball Lightning going farther on a smaller budget than Spark. (i.e. if I had no Mageblood or Nimis or Grand Spectrums e

A little bit back u/Inevitable_Spring928 made a [wonderful post] ( detailing the defensive power of Eternal Damnation + Loreweave, and especially the Juggernaut node 'Unbreakable' in conjunction with strong armour investment. Essentially what it boils down to is that your elemental damage reduction becomes absurdly high for rather cheap passive and gear investment, leaving you able to scale your DPS in any way you want. They went with EA ballistas, and since I had never actually ran a

I made my cold dot occultist It is a pretty solid build. Which can easily farm most of the content. But I cannot complete ubers except uber shaper. I have 89 all resistance(thanks to +2 cold max resistance from a relic) 90% physical resistance. Damage is perfect for mapping. Even ok for 100% delirium. But it feels a bit slow on ubers. Now, I am trying to find a way to improve my DPS without sacrificing survivability. And sadly, I am out of ideas now. If someone has any suggestions for 50 divines budget I will be reall

FULL DEFENSE OVERVIEW ====================== - eternal damnation + loreweave tech - capped spell suppression - 77/75 block, no glancing blows - aegis aurora - 90k+ armour - strong temp chains - phasing - pathfinder life-on-flask-use tech - minion build - freeze and shock immune LACKING (but can be fixed with more investment or settling for less damage): total ailment immunity, high life regen EXPENSIVE ITEMS ====================== To save you the time, here are some rare/expensive items (1div+ or generally hard to find) this build uses, in case you are SSF and/or HC: - arakaali'

With all the flak 3.19 got, i wanted to share my experience of it, from a casual, 5-15 hours per week point of view. Builds i played were quite meta, but with probably less effort put on them than average player. The gear does reflect it, but there are couple items i got very lucky, and happy with. Probably pretty average result you might get given the same amount of time played. Gearing was quite tough early on, as before the soft nerf on arch-nem crafting was almost non-existant with my starter RF. Essences were scarce, harvest was gutted and drops were low. After buffs things got better, w

I like to suffer early game, here is something I cooked up (probably wont even work but w/e). Here is the link: If anyone has a better tree path or suggestions lmk!
