PoE Retaliation, Gladiator, League Starter builds

- PoB This is fairly simple build, i made it just because i really want to play Vaal EQ, but don't want to miss 87/87 block. Gear is basic stuff, Jack the Axe, cheap rings and belt, rest is just life and resists. With Ryslatha and Circle of Guilt rings (just %phys damage), its dps goes from 2.5 to 3.7m dps. Its not that fast early but you can add more speed with better gear. - Varunastra version, does 300k more dps (2.8m). Has some benefits: - Frenzy on hit sword mastery. - Ability to use Tempes Rising boo

Video of T16 Maps, Sirus, Eater, Drox, Harvest etc: &x200B; Im Sorry, i fucked up the aspect ratio or something, it doesnt show the whole screen lmao. I think its because I recorded in Window mode. I wanted to share this super cheap Build i am currently playing. It requires 3 key unique items. \[The Devouring Diadem\] + \[Emperor's Vigilance\] + \[Seething Fury\]. I am playing this build on SSF, but I advice to not start playing it on SSF as a League Starter. On Trade League though, this will work just fine, as the Uniq

------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------CHEAT SHEET--------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SHIELDS: Shields are shown with specific values to show damage at those armor levels. Uniques are shown with mid-roll modifiers unless the uniques are very cheap (max attributes Carnage Heart). LEVELLING: Levelling trees are general recommendations. If you feel squishy or feel like your damage sucks, pick up damage/life nodes as needed. Make sure to keep upgrading your weapon with t

Howdy folks. I've been tooling around with Energy Blade, spectral helix, crit, and gladiator, I cobbled together something moderately ok. As PoB'd it shouldn't be too outrageously expensive to build on leaguestart. It will also use the new Tempest Shield for +25% spellblock so I left some unreserved mana for it. The PoB What it does ok 3-4m boss damage if you sit on them and cast. Moderate ~5k ehp Leeches both life and ES Decent block and Evasion What it does bad Clearspeed is garbage. Maybe flickerstrike/multistrike gemswap because that new sword mas

-------------------------------------------------------- FOREWORD AND NOTES: This build has been adjusted for the great nerfening of builds from the 3.15 patch notes. The bad news is that this build lost a lot of damage, but the good news is that we get multistrike with Shield Charge and it should make this skill good enough. I am currently assuming that Shield Crush will have the same bonus damages apply as Shield Charge, in which it got changed to 4 to 6 from 3 to 4. It is also possible that Shield Crush will have the same bonus damages as Spectral Shield Throw, in which that got changed

Heyo, So i've been working on a shield charge/shield crush Glad making use of bleed and challenger charge nodes for league start. I got to work on this after reading a few other posts regarding this skill and thought I would throw my pob in to the mix for some optimization from the community! &x200B; After seeing " While reviewing this skill, we've made changes to all skills that deal damage based on Shield Defences, greatly boosting their damage. " I am hopeful these buffs were enough to offset the nerfs to melee phys and brutality(both of which this build uses) The build is pretty

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

Trying to figure out initial tree for shield crush. Maybe with FB and mix in reckoning for extra dps but dunno if worth, most likely use shaper mace or something for extra damage and ignore counter skills. Pretty unsure about gearing but this one should be extremely tanky one and flexible to respect into more dps etc. What I tried: Max out survivability Pay attention to attack speed Movement Leech Max block Max fortify AoE as much as possible What I'm unsure: DPS Bleed versus impale. Easy to respec tho. This is impale. [

-------------------------------------------------------- FOREWORD AND NOTES: This is a tweaked build from u/Spandauer2129 because I got bored and wanted to see if it was league start viable. Barring Patch Notes nerfing everything to the ground, I think this is a decent starter. This build was made on 7/17 BEFORE Patch notes. If this is popular enough, I will make better versions and see how far I can push it. I plan on making adjustments to the build once patch notes hit and we get the 3.15 passive tree. This build is intended for easy to get gear that doesn't require a lot of resources or
