PoE 3.23 Affliction, 3.22 Ancestor, 3.21 Crucible Shadow builds

ailments: purity of elements or helmet reduced ignite dura + pantheon + charge mastery for shock stun: perfectionist cluster + 2x brutal restraint, perfectionist + chest craft but its a prefix, cyclone alt qual + pantheon, eva mastery + pantheon phys dmg: shield corrupt, ? mana: clarity + watchers, leech anoint or auxium leech, -cost on gear additional curse is huge, pick from tree, anathema, precursors

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)

Build About Basics/Summary ~ hexblast is slow cast rate which makes it perfect to use with mines due to overwriting the base case rate with mines normal fast cast rate. ~ Sandstorm fixes hexblast crit then curse on hit ring + blasphemy guarantee the 100% more damage proc on hexblast damage. ~ why elemental res curses with chaos skill? hexblast bases damage on lowest enemy resistance which makes it more powerful to target an elemental res as those are easier to

Here is the PoB: The Bv and Spectral helix are there to represent backups, I know the tree isn't correct for BV but it's easy to readjust it for that. I'm planning on starting out as spectral helix till I can get a redeemer chest with frenzy on hit. I purposefully put some of the configs a little lower because I think it will reflect a more accurate reality than perfect conditions. Right now I have it configed for bosses so I have flasks off and the curses on. Though for mapping I'd expect full flask uptime and probably no cur

I really like this build, and crucible added a lot. So I tried to minmax it, and am pretty far. and i am happy about it. I don't think i will be able to make another one like it in the near future, so that's part of my motivation to present this. another one is that I am not entirely happy, because with my eyes on dps while tweaking, I became too vulnerable to ubers. I have killed all ubers, but none deathless. And yes, I do suck, but maybe you can suggest something for this build? If you want to get max pob damage, you have to pu

Hi, I've been looking at some pyroclast miners over on poeninja and I noticed 2 lvl 100 ones were running High-Impact mine support on top of their pyroclast mine. I'm assuming it's because pyroclast mine has a duration and thus allows you to easily get to the 100% chance to deal double damage, thus making it a great support gem? Does anyone know if that's how that interaction works? Another thing I noticed whilst looking at both characters was that on top of running High-Impact mine (I'm assuming) for the double damage, they're running Annihilating light, but doesn't that cancel out the doubl

Scaling BV through vaal caress gloves, curses and phys as extra chaos mainly. Eplode from double obliteration. High evade chance from Grace + flesh and stone with moderate blind effect scaling. Recovery through LgoK, leech, perma life+mana flasks and ghost dancer. Some thoughts: I could see a world where spellbreaker is the better choice in this case, BV doesnt profit from the cast speed and the ES leech isnt actually that amazing. Endgame is probably +level skin or a +4 dendrobate and dual %DoT damage Cold iron points, confident
