PoE Earthshatter, Melee builds

Earthshatter is a slam. 200% AD scaling and creates 4 spikes which deal 30% less when shattered. All spikes can hit the same target if AOE lines up. General's cry linked to earthshatter creates up to 5 dudes who each slam, each creating 4 spikes, and with one cry, up to 20 spikes are created (max spikes is per mirage dude from testing, so doesn't hit direct attack player cap of 15 - this is the critical bit that spawned this idea), all fairly close to one another due to how the gen cry dudes run up to melee range before slamming. Earthshatter spikes can be shattered with any warcry, or a

hi everyone, recently the youtube algorithm decided to start showing me videos from the harvest/heist era and among them were zizaran's ground slam and alkaizer's earthshatter build, both champions using impale, and I know what you're thinking "slams are dead, seismic cry was pretty much removed from the game, impaler keystone was also nuked" but after some time on pob and comparing it with those builds, that doesnt seem to be the case especially because of the recently added echoes of creation helmet, which pretty much brings back pre nerf seismic cry effect more or less. would love to h

Hi, I'm toying around in pob to improve defense vs elemental damage but there is a thing I don't understand. Let's assume I have 80% all elemental resistance. And I can take a maximum hit of lightning damage with 50 000 (maximum hit taken in pob). When I activate Xibaqua in Pob and still have 80% all elemental resistance and 80% chaos resistance. Xibaqua let me take 50% of elemental damage as chaos damage. Why does this double my maximum hit taken to 100 000? In my understanding it shouldn't make a difference if I take 100% of the damage as lightning with 80% Lightning resistance or 50% wi

I'm planning on rolling a Corrupting Fever Glad because those sweet sweet bleed explosions are perfect for what I want to do. The challenge is in how to level it. If you feel like taking my word for it and don't care about the details there's a TLDR towards the end. I've been playing around with a few leveling options and slams feel the best by a fairly wide margin and will only be better in 3.16 with the tree changes. What I've tried I've tried both steel skills and slams and I've tried transitioning right at 28, waiting until 38 and even later at Act 6 after leveling exsanguinate/rea

I also added my favourite "easy to craft" Boots. Besides that it should be very easy to go for alot more damage/defense. I forgot to mention that this PoB focus around impale/brutality, so i didnt include any elemental gem like Ice Crash etc. Feel free to ask me any questions and/or give feedback. greetings guggelhupf

Video is level 73 Drox on a 5-link. I am level 86. I also forgot to use Vaal Warchief. POB: \-- The first jewel has the line from Crown of Eyes since POB doesn't support Battlemage's Cry yet. This is my league starter and the first build I've posted here. I see several threads on here about Earthbreaker totems, and wanted to share my theorycraft. This build plays like reverse Bladefall/Bladeblast, but a little slower. My gearing needs some upgrades (6-link, +1 totem shield, and clusters) but I've managed this on about a 3ex
