PoE Duelist, Hardcore, SSF builds

My SSFHC build, can anyone take a look and advice on any improvements, especially on how to make it tankier. The custom config is for punishment curse and the basic AG setup (Leer cast / dying breathe etc.) Im aware i miss alot of easy jewel nodes for ghastly jewels, and will spec those as i get good ghastlys or a cluster setup.

I'd like to introduce a tanky alternative to the traditional TS Deadeye.As with deadeye, you don't want to start TS, this applies to Champion as well. You start off with LA/IS/Galvanic/... or RoA for phys then switch when you think TS won't suck (+2 arrows bare minimum, likely even later). This isn't a full guide, just PoBs with variations of skilltrees/gems, so if you need handholding this isn't the place. The +2 proj on the tree prompted the builds, as I previously enjoyed a phys Impale champion back in... I honestly don't even remember, the character is gone too, so... Disclaimer: Built

Tick focused, despair, and Malevolence for boss fights, unticked to not inflate pob dps. Obviously you wont have everything up and running and ramped up 24/7. No awk gems. 10k phys hit from boss to simulate survivability with one shot attack Wasp Nest is a great 1c unique for early game and new players. Before you get spell suppression on your gear pick up inveterate, its along the way and very very easy suppresion cap. Early annoit Weathered Hunter. Easy hit chance cap without killing your mana for Precision w/ other Auras. All resists are on 1 ring for pob. Get them where you can on all

So with the new League coming i made a Shield Crush Poison Champion Theory craft. I havent compared it yet to Impale Shield Crush, but the Poison version looks good on paper. Especially with the changes to Obliteration and Mings(for Softcore), the build should have pretty good clear and some potentially good single target damage. The gear i used in the Pob should be pretty "cheap", or farmable in SSF. Its primarly Resist, Life and some Spell Suppress. The Idea was, since Seismic Trap is gone as a Budget Option, and Melee staying kinda untouched, that Shield Crush looks pretty good for easy P

Guide written and maintained by Donkster5. You can find the forum post with links to other material here: I DO NOT ADD SUFFIXES, except very important ones, onto most of the gear. I do this because, depending on your gear, different suffixes will be necessary at different stages. As a result, there are plenty of suffix positions open to get all the resistances or attributes that you need. See the conf

I will Stream playing the build on www.twtich.tv/trollhotline on league start if you have questions and you are interested Levelling with this Build<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Levelling with this build is pretty simple: You start out with Splitting Steel until you get to Spectral Helix (Level 12 - After Merveil) Damage Skill: Spectral Helix (Act 1 - Level 12) - Added Lightning Damage (Act I - Level 8) - Trinity Support (Act 2 - Level 18) - Nightblade Support (Ac

IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO HAEMOPHILA unique gloves (DO NOT CLICK CHAMPION YOU WILL NEED TO PLAY GLADIATOR OR THE BUILD WILL NOT FUNCTION) This 3.17 Phys DOT Champion is a trade league focused build that will give you the great clear survivability and passable single target for the best price. If you are playing SSF you will need to play the Gladiator variant of this build or have access to Haemophilia unique gloves. Phys DOT means physical damage over time and basically uses multiple time overtime effects to generate single target damage as well as clear. Here are the different source
