PoE Hierophant, League Starter builds with custom stat filters

Hey all, Archmage has been stomped into the ground by GGG for a long time now, so here's a new twist/variant to it that I'm considering league-starting. Abyss Jewel Stacking Trinity Archmage. This is heavily based off of Jungroans Raider variant however with the nerfs to arcane surge it feels like you're almost obligated to take hierophant. What this build does differently from previous versions of archmage: Chill effect, frostbolt and ice nova with high cold damage scaling gives a strong defensive layer previously not had Recoup: with new recoup nodes added to the tree, it lets us ge

After some amount of math, the current "less" damage needed to see the unatatched damage is ~28%. This is meant to counteract the "more" damage multiplier from attatched hits that arma brand has. That being said, the extra 2 hits in single target that we get in due to our cast speed -will- have that damage. So, when calculating DPS, get the damage of the 2 attatched brands by disabling the configuration. Call this "A" Then, get the damage of the 7 unattatched brands by enabling it. Call this "B" Then, divide 1 by the brand recall cooldown time to get our effective cast rate. Call this "R"

Ever since the Timeless Jewel Chainbreaker Keystone rework last league (Grants 1 Rage regenerated for every 25 Mana Regeneration per second) I've wanted to make a mana-regen stacking character that takes advantage of nearly permanent berserk. This seems too challenging with available sources of flat mana per second, so mana stacking was the way I chose. Berserk favors attacks so Mind of the Council was a no brainer. However, not being able to regenerate mana because of Chainbreaker makes it hard to sustain typical Mind over Matter defenses, so I instead decided to make use of the Hiero

So i think i have finished my pob of the shock slinger. Gotta replace the 6 link arc with lightning conduit and add overcharge support to the 3 link arc but thats about it. i tried to be reasonable with the items since its a league starter but who knows what the actual prices of these will be. Guessing ashes of the stars might be a bit much like this league but we probably have other amulet options anyway. One other thing to note. According to a poe wiki or something i read that spellslinger always triggers helmet first so there shouldnt be a problem with lightning conduit trying to cast

PROGRESSION NOTES: CAMPAIGN As of 3.17 I'm recommending you level primarily with Explosive Arrow ballistas after your first Labyrinth. Up until then, you can use the basic Holy Flame Totem + Purifying Flame setup and swap over after you unlock access to the Library in Act 3 (after you have ascended). Once you swap over to Explosive Arrow, there are some things to know: - You CANNOT HAVE any sources of Pierce on your character! Pierce will cause your arrow to go through your target rather than stick and leave a detonating fuse, which means you wi

In 3.14 that was my favorite build, unfortunately, that build lost more than 1M dps in 3.15 due to various nerfs But this time, with the buff of the Skin of the Loyal armor (from +1 to +2 gem lvl) and the new mastery system, i managed to get back to its original 3.14 strength! PoB: It can go up to 4M with a watcher eye! but that gets way too expensive! EDIT: 3.8M with Hrimsorrow unique glove! league starter friendly! (except for astral projector ring!) EDIT 2: I edited the tree, went more on the shadow region for crits

A really fun build that i play every league since the introduction of the Astral Projector Ring It makes your nova skills automatically target closest enemy, wich makes Shockwave Totem a totally viable skill now! If you are like me, and your computer is shit, and want to enjoy a relatively safe build and looting items while your totems protect you? Then that's the build for you! It is not a league starter since you need the Astral Projector ring, but since they added the atlas passive, people get Metamoprh encounter more often, i seen
