PoE Trickster, League Starter builds without Explosive Trap, Explosive Trap of Shrapnel, Splitting Steel

Which build would be better as a league starter? I'm leaning towards Hot DoT Trickster but I'm unsure if totem health will be an issue. Gear in both is a filler so don't be concerned about not being resist capped or not having sufficient attributes, though I am intending to use their bases. Hot DoT Trickster: Explosive Concoction Raider:

Vaal reap got me exited so i'm trying to plan a build with minimum gear to leaguestart in Crucible. However, i'd like help on how to improve damage while maintaining QoL of the build as i'm kind of a noob in PoE. POB: Objectives: Stun immune (well kinda... the tree only provides 96% avoidance) Ailment immunity... One step Ahead takes care of Freeze, need to figure out the other three. get to 1M - 2M dps with moderate investment increase tankiness? current Tree has 153% inc life... Mechanics: build will relay o

Hello guys, how is it goin, 120 hours played newbie here As researching my league starter i stumbled upon 2 builds that i really liked - Velyna's SST raider and BEG's frostblades trickster, so i decided to combine those 2 builds together using POB as a base layer before investing time into it. Starting as cold dot trickster and later tranistioning into this one Definetly need much more evasion before even considering Wind Dancer and trying to maximize value of the new inverted Elemental mastery Im looking into any suggestions, es

EO on chest bcs I have it on relic. :)

Hey guys, I just wanted to make sure with experts that I understood everything correctly : I'm playing Frost Blades Trickster in SSF (leaguestarted it... it went how you can guess). However I got to farming T16, still getting slapped by Essences because for some reasons i have 159 armor etc but that not what this post is about. As a fellow SSF enjoyer I spend quite a bit of time in Heist, and I got as usual \[\[The Admiral\]\] At first I thought "yeah... seems cool but wont use it" but then I thought about elemental equilibrium (that I can take right away, i'm pathing in front of it anyway

The idea is: freezing everything on screen is a defensive layer, probably very good in the Sanctum Frost Blades is getting a huge increase to added damage % so let's try to build around it. Ailments don't care about resistances on hit and whatnot, just base damage, so high added damage is good. Heatshiver gives up to 130% added cold damage as fire if we can freeze things. Hence Expedition's End for %as more damage freezes and Southbound + freeze duration stacking. This all means we can inflict 1 second freeze on Pinnacle bosses with attacks. Crit ailments medium cluster jewels also share an ai

Notes: A build that has great defence and movespeed, great clearspeed at a relatively low investment. With investment it can do all game content except from the hardest Uber bosses. You will be vulnerable to physical hits, so your manual dodge skills have to be excellent, but since you are doing damage over time it will be much easier to not get hit. Playstyle: Uses both Caustic Arrow and Toxic Rain against hard monsters - place the totems, cover area in caustic ground, then spam toxic rain as long as you can before taking damage or get some other reason to change cha

Hello there - Self-Cast Voltaxic Burst on Trickster is a build that I have been iterating on since it's introduction in 3.15. Despite being a relatively new player when it was introduced, I began trying to make my own build with it because I like to improve at the games I play. Up until yesterday, I have not played this build since the third week of the league or so. The build that I have constructed was able to clear T16s and reach level 95 in SSF this league. A caveat before I post the PoB link: I transferred from SSF to Trade league yesterday in order to acquire an Esh
