PoE Melee, Bossing, Mapping builds

I've been PoB warrior'ing for awhile and I think I've settled on my league starter. Main criteria was melee, strong overall build (mapping + bossing), and tanky as possible. Was thinking boneshatter slayer, but I avoided it for a couple of reasons; Vaal Pact annoys me and Slayer needs it to be acceptably tanky, and Slayer is kind of bad at bossing without very high investment. That being said, I love the Boneshatter Playstyle, and as a long time HC player I have a special place in my heart for Juggernaut. Juggernaut also deals with trauma stacks very very well. After review, Jugg has very

This build is attempting to maximize the buffs given by Her Embrace (from Oni Goroshi) by adding physical damage and "gain % Physical Damage as extra Fire Damage" modifiers and stacking increased Fire Damage/More Fire Damage modifiers. Two strategies for defenses: 1. Regular defenses, stacking Life, Strength, and resistances (problematic with Abyssus helm, Her Embrace degen) 2. Converting physical damage (mostly Hits, also degens) into elemental damage and then utilizing Transcendence to apply stacked Armour to elemental Hits on top of resistances. Ditching Strength stacking for more poin

This is not a bossing build. Let's get that out of the way first and foremost. You can boss on it, but the dps will be WAY LOWER. So I was doing some help with another players White Wind build and the comments are full of people maligning White Wind as trash and unusable. I wanted to prove at least in concept that you can make a high damage tanky mapper using a 1c unique weapon and no shield. I picked the silliest skill I could think of being Wild Strike. Specifically so I could run a 50/50 fire/cold version. Nothing feels more PoE than hitting for Fire and Cold with a lightning skill that

Hi Everyone, I decided to give LS a try for the first time this league. I wanted to league start a build that I could clear all the game's content with without re-rolling another character since I hate leveling through the campaign so much. First off, I played Helix until about level 92, and that was terrible, and frankly I don't think I really want to repeat that process ever again. It was tolerable in the campaign, but not having the gear needed in a league start scenario to make switching to LS feel good until level 92 was less than ideal. However, around level 92 I was very fortunate and

Helmet is the trickiest to recreate, I dropped the base and farmed the enchant myself. The enchant is a lot of damage and the phys as ele fracture is a lot of tankiness. Could build around just one to start though. GMP is probably a good link if you have a different enchant, it also helps with LGoH because of the extra projectiles. You can get 20-22% phys as ele on the watcher's eye if you lose the damage mod and run a purity. The dawnbreaker is also not max roll on the corruption, so you could make back the phys as ele there potentially. Probably would drop precision in that case and get c

1m full dps with replica abyssus or 800k with fractal thoughts Lethal pride is going to be got probably in yellow maps has chance to intimidate on herbalism, annoint is probably going to change to tribal fury however I tested in std and it feels ok in yellow maps without it. Chest upgrade would definitely be +1 curse chest 6l either cospri or rare hunter chest. Build will have issues bossing, but will feel good in low tier/mid tier maps Nightmare jewel is normally cheap for power charge generation. If I can't pu

Here is my build with the gear my character currently has. This is my first attempt at a build made without a guide as a reference so I'd love any feedback. The basic idea is to stack frenzy charges so I started with raider and then went for as many sources of max frenzy charge as possible. Ice bite looked like a good choice of support gem due to the frenzy charge scaling and I chose frost blades as a result. I'm aware that it's not a particularly good skill for bossing so my goal is to get around 2-3m DPS to clear moderately juiced T16s. A note about the gea
