PoE builds without Glancing Blows, Headhunter, Mageblood with custom stat filters

PoB: First time playing HC, so don't really know how to balance defence/offence. Defence layers: Acrobatics + Elusive (Nightblade/Withering Step) + Vaal Grace for Dodge Mistwall for Block Wind Dancer + Petrified Blood (Full Life) for 1-shot prevention Skitterbots for Chill Defiance Banner Fortify on Whirling Blades Permanent Topaz/Sapphire/Ruby Flasks (can be automated with Instilling Orbs) Positive Chaos Res Lvl 20 CwDT with Steelskin Near-permanent Life Flask restoring 2k Life/s Endurance charges from Sy

UPDATE: So after some testing, reduced flask charges used on tree (and enchant) works, but the inc. flask charges used on dying sun/vinktar/taste of hate don't apply. This makes flask sustain, even when using the flasks, a lot better. Furthermore, it shotguns! At point blank, you can get any number of projectiles to overlap, so GMP is our best link for single target and clear. As far as I can tell this build definitely has potential ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A lot of discussion concerning the new skill, but I haven't seen many PoB's yet so I figured

Okay, I know there's been quite a few shield crush build theories and discussions recently on this sub. But I've put together a decently geared character on PoB using Shield Charge as an analog and it's actually looking really strong despite lacking the ability to use a strong MH weapon with the good bleed mods you'd find on "normal" bleed builds. &x200B; I made the shield 2500 armour, which I think is perfectly achievable via Deafening Dread essence crafting. And the tree is level 98, which to me is fine because its someth

i made some theorycrafting around this idea lately. the build is still fresh and only PoB, but it seems like a nice combo: HOW IT WORKS: \+"the queen's hunger" triggers offerings that affect you (AT 100% EFFECT) \+by using "leash of oblation" you can have an offering of each type \+skill duration helps keep offerings up, but you need increased duration on chest and passives \+"storm burst" benefits heavily from skill duration \+"storm burst" is a channeling skill, so using "the immortal will" makes the harbinger apply a nice buff to you \+as bone offering grants block chance

How to avoid all stuff This post based from another, where i left a "hold my beer" comment post I want to share with you my Bleed Bow Build, which have many peices of little interactions giving in the end nice things I cant say this bleed bow somehow much different from another builds in gameplay, except its MORE safer and you dont need to perma push all flasks, only one

STEP BY STEP LEVELLING: Act 1: Buy Frost Blades from Nessa after you kill Hillock. We?re going to use Frost Blades for clear and Double Strike for single targets. Buy a Paua Amulet for mana regeneration(we will need this until we get Life and Mana Leech on passive tree) and also craft movement speed boots as soon as you can. Pick up 3-colored items and sell them for chromatic orbs for first 2-3 acts. We will need them since we change skills through levelling. Keep on upgrading mana flasks especially until Act 6, we will be using them frequently. Also Magic weapon with added Physical Damage
