PoE Scion builds without Headhunter, Mageblood, Watcher's Eye

I have been playing around with the following build idea since the level 20 gem info was released: Scion (Gladiator / Pathfinder) Reap/Exsanguinate (going to have to test which one ends up working better and how Reap overlaps work with Spell Cascade). Now to preface, this build is based on the assumption that Indigon is not changed and that spell Life cost is not going to be increased by it, so we can proc it using Arcane Cloak / something linked with Archmage and get the bonus for our life-cast spells. We grab some block (the tree and items are pretty barebones, so I'm reasonably sure that

Here is the pastebin to my experiment. Ok, so the items are still not ready, but the basics of how the build is going to function are there. Life leech on spellhit is iffy to get early on and i don´t want to depend on hits, so i opted for high life regen. At this point i thought to myself, what if i integrate RF into the build to get that juicy more spell dmg mod? So i am stacking life, generic phys nodes, life% regen, dmg over time, max res and skill effect duration to scale the Exsanguinate and Corrupting Fever dmg over time. I started as a Jug but quickly

scion has a lot more damage potential and space for customization, but a 109 scion tree ended up with 6k hp and 300 regen with no hope of getting near 3,6k regen (leech tho) of my slayer build, which I suppose is stronger for this league around (given that slayer has enough dps to kill everything) Considering the 20% cull, slayer tree has around 1,5m dps, 7k HP and the said super high leech regen. Scion on the other hand has a lot of points to spare, can grab cluster jewels near resolute technique and basically has all the physical damage nodes in templar/marauder area and all the ones near t

PoB: Exsanguinate + Arcanist Brand From what I saw, Exsanguinate doesn't seem like an amazing spell to self-cast. Spell Totems seem like the obvious solution, but I think Arcanist Brands will provide the smoothest playstyle. Exsanguinate doesn't seem to suffer from its downsides (a lot). Question: Is the DoT debuff affected by the damage reduction from Arcanist Brand? I can see it going both ways depending on how one interprets the wording. If not, this could turn out godly. If it does, still not the biggest deal when

I have this idea of using empire grasps and cyclone , sucking enemies in and permastunning them while casting purifying flame. While i did make a pob for this, it lacks damage and i am still clueless on how stun works. any ideas on how to improve this?

Pob: This is the general premise of the build: with a very high speed we cast Crackling Lance, the cost of which we make sure to be over a 100 mana. So, with every cast we have a 50% chance to trigger the spells in our helmet, Storm Call and Hydrosphere. To buff their damage we cast a very juicy Arcane Cloak. The idea is that we still have very good clear while at high Intensity. Two notable things about our ascendancies: Elementalist makes Hydrosphere's Exposure very strong. Raider, while giving us insane cast speed, also gives

I plan to make an ascendant wander as my starter this league, I created 2 POB looking some builds in poe ninja and changing some parts, but i haven't decided which one is better because I don't feel like I know the build that well and I'm not the best at POB. The first POB has more damage ( but i feel that it's more expensive that a true starter , the second one (h I feel it's cheaper but the items are very different. So some questions. 1)Which items are better to league start with, I know that the body armor and the flask are not c

The plan is to swap out ele focus with pinpoint. Somehow this actually turned out better than assassin variant, im curious to see how it does, leveling will feel like ass, no atziri flask.... :(

Hello exiles, &x200B; just theorycrafted some selfcast blazing salvo builds for ascendant (door + pathfinder), door and elementalist. They all use MoM + EB (specced until devouring diadem). The way i simulated the dps for BS is I took old firestorm lvl 18 which has pretty much the same dps as lvl 20 BS. I also used lvl 15 immolate to simulate the lower added dmg effectivnes of blazing salvo. The gear i used for simulation is in my opinion mediocre. Obviously devouring diadem is not gonna be easy to get on league start but it should get a lot cheaper after a week or two. Since i dont ha

Firestorm looks like it could be fun coming up, and ascendant is always good for a challenge. Heiro takes care of the mana problem with totems also +1 totem and mini MoM for defense. Chieftan gives ash, damage and tankiness through totem leech. Damage is scaled through generic sources due to EO, rest of points are life, totem and mana. I figure itll play like flameblast totems, but do pretty well on bosses.

Hi Frands, I have made a lightning warp auto bomber. No clue if it would work. Don't have time to test it either. If you want to, go for it. It's only here in concept, so you can modify it as you want. &x200B; The idea is simple. You lightning warp across the map. As you warp, you shock, Chill and kill. This causes Herald of Thunder and Herald of Ice to come into the mix. Does it work? No clue. Probably needs more cold damage to allow Warp to freeze and proc Herald of Ice. Could be done with the new ring maybe. Again, no time to test it. The gear is not filled out on it. Could be fin

EDIT: Got the build together, I'll put together a showcase tomorrow (its is... quite tanky) Theorycrafting PoB: I've been thinking of making an immortal build to loot fractured fully delirious maps. It is mostly just for fun, to see how cheap it can be to make a character tanky as fuck if you focus on little else. Requirements are: Fast (200%+ movement speed) Tanky (unkillable even in highest level of content) Because of this, pathfinder is basically mandatory; otherwise, since you can't kill mobs, you will have no way to sustain flasks. I opted for pathfin

disclaimer: shitpost POB: (tree 2) (warning: jewels were causing POB to lag out for some reason) 4 liquid inspirations + traitor node + pathfinder ascendancy (scion) + mana flasks = power charges on command result = infinite discharges diamond flask not needed. zerphies for life if needed. gear up to you. More mana = more DPS. &x200B; You can talk shit on the build, but I won't listen.

Hello All I finally created a Scion Spell Totem Build and I thought going Hierophant and Chieftan made the most sense even though it seems like most people dont do that for Scion Totem Builds. Anyways here is my pastebin: Im using purifying flame with Soul mantle as my main ability. Obviously im using 2 Kikazaru and took sanctum of thought so that curses have 0% effect. Im using Devouring Diadem for my auras and feast of flesh is a solid help with overall sustain plus its super cool and ive been wanting to use it for a while. E
