The text says causes Increases and Reductions to other damage types in Large radius to be Transformed to apply Fire Damage that's not just elemental damage! That includes physical. maybe? Is there something? I put in a custom modifier to increase fire equal to physical increase -- I was able to pick up 362% increased which is nothing to scoff at. The only problem I can see is the fire attacks I can find are all converting 50-60% physical damage to fire so that decreases quite a bit the efficiency of doing this. But maybe I overlooked something. Or it's still wo

I posted my little raider here before but after a brief dalliance with infinite Vaal Molten Strike I decided I liked this better and specced back to it and upgraded it a little. It's _fun_. Reports indicate we need 140% inc projectile speed which is easily achieved thanks to the massive 50 from dagger mastery, then we have 23 from gem, 30 from helmet enchant, 15 from Vengeant Cascade which is 118% inc, so that's x2.18 and 15% more from projectile mastery is another x1.15 which comes to x2.5070 -- PoB says 2.51 I am not sure whether it's rounded up or down but luckily it doesn't matter: the vid

has my goal and the "Default" tree/skillset is where I am at, real character. It only uses one very cheap rare, everything else is a unique, two were somewhat pricey: heatshiver was 45c, 5L Daresso's was 40c. From where I am to the goal I do not need to change items at all, it's just gem levels and skillpoints. More can be done later, this will be enough to very comfortably fill the atlas and do the story big bosses. Once again I started with running Heists with a pConc Raider and while it's no longer endless, I managed to run quite a few of them (I made a snapsho

Compared to my previous builds, I brought in Windscream and Despair to help with the damage. I have so much movement speed from other sources it being a 20% MS boots instead of 30% just doesn't matter. I honestly see no problems. I have no flasks but I do have 190k boss DPS. Without Despair and Wither and no boss config PoB says I still have 98k DPS which is plenty for act clearing. This entire thing doesn't take into account the 10th projectile. The biggest cost on the entire build is the need to have 2R2B somewhere and we have no good candidates for that so eit

Same thing as the frost blades raider exact same items exact same tree except for the Lethality wheel, I picked Heartseeker. The big deal, however, is Vaal Reave. It'll help tremendously with Mercy lab Izaro and a little later with map bosses. What do you think? Is the lack of AoE a concern?

As you know, I am going to start with a Raider pConc with lots of Onslaught effect and then planned to respec into PF. And then I started to _think_ you know Wilma's allow us to double dip into Onslaught but then we can only deal damage with totems and ... attack speed ... totems... why, that's Ancestral Protector, of course! Do you know what else has tons of Attack Speed? Hollow Palm. At least I don't need to pick weapons and gloves. Belt is needed to make my Silver Flask uptime 100%, amulet is Astramentis, Rings will be needed for life/res/despair on hit so we have chest and boots to pick. B

The advantages of this build are 1. very low cost to start. The first version cost me a grand total of 12c and the current version with all costs accounted for was 178 chaos (I didn't count the chromes and jewelers I spent). It could be even cheaper with a cheaper jewel, that 30c was unnecessary, I was playing with the new PoB tool, added my stat filters and saw this one, couldn't resist. For a few chaos, you'd get a jewel whi

This post raised the possibility and this [comment] ( confirmed you can actually do this: socket a gem in Ralakesh boots which you can _not_ use so it gets disabled but have an item in weapon swap which enables it :D this causes you to have maximum charges and on weapon swap back you do _not_ lose them so you can just Discharge the suckers.

There has been some controversy about my Lightning Arrow build and /u/officialvehx have provided a very useful TR tree. I have merged it with my LA build and tweaked it to be have a lot more defense. My concerns with TR was the "overlapping pods" configuration in PoB which I am still unsure about but even if it turns out to be just one, the damage is not that bad, it's 41K DPS vs ~60-65K DPS from the LA build and if it turns out to be really three then

(sorry, that's already 3.19 trees I recreated the main tree in 3.18 1. Why this post? Because most guides do not focus on the peculiar problems arising from doing this just a few hours into the league. 1. Why not Toxic Rain? I tried but we are doing roughly three overlapping TR pods worth of damage and it's hard to guarantee there'll be that much or more for TR. Also, our weapon is very cheap -- see below -- while a 5L Quill Rain is anything but. 1. Why Lightning Arrow? We are Raider for speed and to get a lot of life we need every li

This is my first build from ground up that doesn't suck at first sight. It's an affordable, simple Blight occultist. Blight is chaos which can't be reflected, resisted less and it being DoT means we are dealing damage even when dodging. Scaling its damage synergizes somewhat with scaling Profane Bloom damage for better clear. As for the items: 1. The crown with this corrupt is ~30c currently, it was around 10c a month or two ago. 1. When searching for rares, I had a 10c max filter. Most are much less. 1. Our most expensive item is the Atziri shield but the buil

I have pulled out the cost of my rares from Client.txt and I thought this could be interesting maybe? Usually build guides are pretty vague on costs. I followed mostly this comment in pivoting to CI, my version is forget the zombies they are not required just a nicety, I could squeeze them in because I got insanely lucky when I double corrupted my shield. The price for that shield is most definitely not included in the costs below. 1. Dem

My goal is to clear mobs fast so this is an elementalist spamming Vortex on left click which ignites thanks to Shaper Of Flames. Then dual Obliteration wands deal chaos damage which ignites more thanks to Shaper Of Flames. I haven't put much emphasis on the Vortex DPS, the damage dealer are the Obliteration explosions, hopefully. Budget is not bad either, none of these item cost even 100c , most cost much less. The cluster jewel is the only one which might run 1ex. The 6th link is Combustion but that requires a 6L brass drome which is a bit more expensive so I

Earlier today I started thinking on this and got a number of good comments and here comes the strength stacking Scion who makes everyone really bloody miserable through an Anomalous Despair aura cranked up by Ashes Of The Stars and four Misery Everlasting nodes :D Chaos damage Anomalous Earthquake puts 'em out of their misery. Again Ashes Of The Stars help. Alas I needed to put in an Enlighten. If it's too expensive perhaps replace a Misery Everlasting with Uncompromising. I have enabled an Ancestral Warchief. You can add Vaal Blight to go above 1.7M chaos DPS. Items are real, copied from tr

They capped negative resistance at 200% but resistance penetration is a different calculation AFAIK. What if we stack Omniscience through the nose and used Mjolnir to deliver Arc? To that end, I made a tree which is as long as possible so that the Split Personality jewels at the very end deliver a real lot of Omniscience. Since Omniscience takes care of elemental resistances we can use all the suffixes for attributes and we certainly do that. Where we can, we sneak in a little increased attributes, too. It also takes care of the Mjolnir attribute requirements. Our main skill is Cyclone, on c
