PoE 3.23 Affliction, 3.22 Ancestor Ranger builds

I am considering these two for later respec either from toxic rain pathfinder or caustic arrow occultist, respectively. Pathfinder: (maxroll) Occultist: I am quite familiar with the playstyle after playing life version of occultist so mostly wondering about the defensive mechanics of these two since I might not be able to exactly follow the pobs. Occultist - I don't believe I will be able to farm Mageblood. If that's case, is the occultist still viable? Some builds use large thread of hope to get Glancing Blows. Not exactly sure how the

I'm a sucker for perma flasks and wanted to try hexblast mines (seems like it will be good for sanctum and league mechanic which is what I want to do) so I made a POB for it and it kinda looks good. - feel free to steal and modify if interested or provide feedback on why it isn't very good. Not a league starter but something to transition to day 4-5 pretty from poison exsanguinate/PC - You could make the swap at 85 if you really wanted to and had the reservation and flask cluster jewels, 91+ and it would start to feel a lot better. 6-7 mil DPS on a first week

Hey guys, been trying to cook a league starter, honestly been kinda overwhelmed with options (trauma, locus mine, spellblade, etc), but I finally settled with the masterrace new support\\, Locus Mine Support and Explosive Arrow.\\ For those who doesn't know what it does: &x200B; The ascendancy of choice for me is Deadeye (assassin could work?), basically with Deadeye Endless Munition, we get (3 x 0.7 = 2\~ proj for each mine). Mark effect is really good, Tailwind helps w

WARNING: THIS BUILD IS MOST LIKELY BAIT but I'm stupid so I'm trying it, if you want good Heatshiver melee then Frost Blades Trickster is probably what you actually want. SC TRADE WARNING: I am 100% six portal pilled and this is not hc viable and probably not ssf friendly either It should be obvious to everyone, but beyond wild strike being in a bad spot for scaling it's in a worse spot to level with. I will be suffering because I like leveling with the skill I want to run. I'll be maybe leveling frost blades until wild strike feels competent, no I will not test this before league start. W

Alright I wanted to see how hard everyone can shit on this build. Keep in mind, it's an expensive meme build, but I like making fairly functional meme builds. There are certainly better ways to build flicker. The idea is we run transcendence and have 100% phys taken as Lightning Coil - 50% Dawnbreaker - 20% Shield corrupt - 8% Helmet crafted and implicit - 16% Purity of elements watchers eye - 12% This gives us a total of 106% phys taken as so we have a little room to play with the watchers eye/helmet mods. The build is stun immune and ailment immune Could also get bleed or poi

The new support gem, Locus Mine, seems to have much greater numbers than, say, Blastchain Mine. Instead of a 53% less multiplier, you have 11% less. Also, it throws 3 mines. Here is my thought around the build and PoB: Tri-ele bow. Scale proj on Deadeye and chain for clear. I have Blastchain in place for Locus as the damage would be 1.4x-ish better. Also, this is counting 1 mine hitting the enemy and not possibly the 3 mines. Lastly, I'd slot in returning projectile as well. Am I inhaling Copium/Hopium in making this wo
