PoE 3.23 Affliction, 3.22 Ancestor builds without Mageblood

tl;dr it seems bad but I'm not that experienced with scaling fire DoT. Damage is simulated using DD corpse life that will provide same exact damage that the totem will. The idea is to use Searing Bond totems which can be scaled through +1 fire gems to increase totem life while also doing fire DoT. Since we're chieftain with 90% res, we use RF for more fire DoT and more spell damage for searing bond. And then we use arcanist brand for flame surge/curse while using scorching ray for infusion/stronger exposure since there's nothing else to do while your totem ign

I wanted to play around with the new sacrifice gems numbers. So there is a lot to explain here on how I set it up. But this is a very early look. And honestly I'm not super happy with the actual result. Maybe you guys can have a look and see if there are some glaring holes. What you care about. 472,484 Average hit. Average Burst 1.351,304. Awakened Spell cascade Gives 5 Casts of DD so if you have the corpses 1,351,304 x 5 = 6,756,502 damage per cast. Seal gain time is 0.66 so you end up with 0.38 casts per second. 2.567.477dps 100% of it chaos. Not the Actual Boss DPS In reality your ma

Here we go, concept of a build I'm toying since this evening, after someone threw at me the idea of melee elemental hit, me answering it was shit, him holding his ground, and me checking a bit more and finding insane synergies about it. Concept of the build: \- Elementalist, because the damage is just that good and shaper of storm is clutch. Slayer is an alternative. \- Elemental hit, replacing your weapon with an attack doing a large amount of flat damage. You use the usual suspect to block cold and lightning, even if I toyed w

The idea is simple: Ethereal Knives with Return Projectiles and Sadism Support and Returning Proj Support for clear Blade Blast on a trigger weapon with Sacrifice Support to help with single target In theory this should feel great to clear with as you get Occu explosions and the fake-hit build feel with the fast poisons from EK while keeping long poisons on Blade Blast to still have some consistency/room to dodge mechanics. No idea about damage but it sounds cool enough for me to take it for a spin, what are your thoughts?

Considering playing SRS, wanted to make a tankier version. Here's where it's at Starter (Non-Poison): Endgame (Poison): Any thoughts/suggestions?

2mil dps, pretty tanky. Modified this from an old Ben build, so there might be stuff I missed. Biggest issue I have with it is a lack of explosions for clear, but AoE is decent enough I don't think it'll be terrible.

Low Life MoM Penance Brand Hierophant ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Defensive Mechanics Explained : When hit, 60% damage goes to Mana and 40% goes to HP. (+10% watchers eye, +10% hiero passive) Then, with Anomlaous Petrified Blood, we only take 55% of the remaining damage (or 22% of the initial hit) The damage that we would have taken is then applied as damage over time, which is t

I am planning on starting a soulwrest build this league. Soulwrest is a favourite of mine and it seems like it gained 3 big tools: - fresh meat support is incredibly powerful and could be what makes crit minions finally viable. But its condition is very difficult to meet. - returning projectiles support is very strong and gives us another good damage link for phantasms when the build has historically had some issues with filling out its supports. can easily swap between it and GMP for clear/ST. The build will use snipers mark so it should be very consistent. - guardians blessing is a free

I was working on a molten strike chieftain starter and ended up coming up with this: &x200B; The defenses look pretty nice, and I was planning to replace 2 of the skill gems with returning projectiles and trauma support when they get added. I wasn't really sure how to get the correct dps in pob for molten strike so I'm just hoping it's significantly higher than what the number I got is lol. &x200B; Any suggestions to improve this? Going non crit for league start cause it just seemed easier.

&x200B; Very straightforward and tanky enough build, all the items are easily gotten in the first days. With a better weapon, stack more damage in the items and you can squeeze much more dps out of this. Frenzy charge generation will be huge. A lot of potential here? Glad is one of my favourite ascendancies so I'm happy to start with this.

PoB: This is a PoB for the new Corrupting Cry Support (CCS). Since it's new, I don't know exactly how it will perform, but it isn't too different from Exsang./Reap DoT, which I've league started before. I've added a couple of hipster techs to spice it up, though. CCS has a lot of base damage, but not as many ways to scale it as Exsang. and Reap since it's not a skill gem. That rules out weapons like Cold Iron Point or wands with +1 to all (physical) skill gems. For your weapon then, you can pick up a bow with +2 to socketed support gems or try scaling minion dama

So far, we have very expensive equipment and barely any damage, even trying to account for the new strat with the new support gems (Controlled Blaze Support, Sadism Support) and a synergestic one (Swift Affliction Support). Together, they give 4.66x damage if one can manage to hit 13 times, igniting 13 times, over 4 seconds. Yet this isn't enough to catapult it past a few million DPS, even with very good gear. Perhaps there are better ways to scale ignite than what I'm using, as otherwise, this build will never scale into a strong build.

This build can be built in multiple ways and I dont know which one is best, coz its very dependent on other factors I did not take into account like tattoos etc. PoB covers 3 variations of the build: \- Siege Ballistas - for better clear and average single target \- Artilery Ballistas - for better single target \- Lion's jewel vs Cluster Jewel comparison (some comparison) &x200B; Using Self-Ignite Forbidden Rite on CoC Frenzy we are able to constantly self-ignite ourselves to get 200% increased attack speed via Makou's Embra

Hey folks I was thinking about starting the league with Arc Ignite. Think with the new Spellblade Support Gem, combined with Martyr of Innocence you get some quite juicy Damage Numbers without a lot of investment. Here's my POB so far : Would love any and all feedback

First time trying to make my own build, I drafted this quick version of a spellblade fire BV Inquis. Any PoB Gods here that can tell me if this is dogshit? Got it to around 500k dps with only the weapon equipped, I added the spellblade damage in the config

replaced VB with crit tree with regular ones for 3.22 : 100% = 91% crit to fix fix : take doom cast, remove flat mana nodes - enduring mana flask for smooth gameplay more than required but it's perma used anyways so it doesn't matter. masteries unchanged stun avoid for mapping is from boots, can go stun pantheon for bossing (feels useless)

Sup BoneZoners, i was playing around with the new Trauma Support Gem. Despite the majority of people tends to use it with Frostbreath i had a different weapon in mind that can utilize the huge amount of flat physical damage. With 28 Trauma stacks it will add 308 to 672 physical damage to attacks. This is my PoB: It ends up with around 25 Million Shaper DPS. Its not a league starter. it´s a theory craft for my SSF league. all uniques are fairly achievable in SSF. The last league i got 7x Annihilating Lights, 3x Heatshiver and 3x T

Leveling 1-12 (still probably best way to level) Splitting Steel, Chance to Bleed Leveling 12+ Sunder until Boneshatter SWAP NOTABLE 3.21 CHANGES -determination reservation gone, this requires us to grab a mana mastery - which is relevry, this has 10% aura effect for our Pride aura as well. OR USE ARROGANCE PRECISION INSTEAD -new 1% max res armour mastery with armour on all gear (hybrid armor/eva is the gear we're aiming for anyways for suppression) -suppression mastery moved to evasion mastery and requires at least a hybrid chest on (this build already ran hybrid EVA/ARM for supp

Thought id try making a perseverance smite champion build and i did a rough draft of the passive tree i stopped at level 95 as 91 is the highest i've ever gotten, mainly just interested to know how much of the tree is wasteful and if its at all a viable tree for clearing atlas, i tried to hit around 150% life from tree and was able to get to 148 which i think is decent. One of my big worries is completely converting the last 50% of my smite damage to lightning i cant seem to find any decent methods except lightning mastery or vessel of vinktar which neither seem very good. I also need to get m

\-With no need for Redblade Banner or super heavy investment into CDR, Necromancer and Spiritual Aid seemed a much better way to go than my initially thought Saboteur. Free duration, offering, easy crafting and an additional way to scale damage. \-Set corrupting cry to 4 stacks to see 1 cry dps. Set to 10 stacks to see full dps with permanent uptime with continuous application. \-Weaknesses: Stun immunity seems to be biggest issue. Not fully crit immune. Could drop Necromancer for Saboteur(AoE/CDR) or Pathfinder(Flask uptim

Path of Building: 6 Power Charges, 6 Curses, 99% reduced duration Impending Doom Using several uniques and the Window of Opportunity wheel, this buid achieves 99% reduced duration of temporal chains to allow for very rapid proccing of Doom Blast. This build uses power charge stacking to achieve a curse limit of 6 while maintaining a high critical strike chance. This allows the use of powerful offensive and defensive curses to scale the damage along with the Occultist Ascendancy. Sanctum uniques are used to scale cooldown recovery rate and get elemental damage re

current pob for endgame, can level as regular bonezone until i get the necessary uniques. i basically just copied a normal bonezone pob i used last league and adjusted it questions and suggestions welcome!
