PoE Claws of the Hawk, SSF builds

8.2M DPS using only defensive auras, if you're SC and want to run wrath that bumps you up to 12M. Not a PoB warrior so scuffed items for the most part, but all relevant gear is easily obtainable. Two uniques I include are target farmable and day 2-3 gear max. Definitely NOT min-maxed. Based on my testing with Spectral Throw in game, after the buffs each should hit 5-8 times. I put it at 6 for the purposes of this pob.

----------------- BUILD CALC ----------------- Conditioal: - Brittle: While moving - Totem: Uptime - Trinity: Freeze but no perma freeze - Fortify: 7% chance - Onslaught - Armour and Evasion - Ailment effect: full chill and shock effect - Power Charges: 5% chance on hit Missing: - Ancestral Vaal Totem - Rage/Dmg per frenzy (glove implicit) - Flasks (good uptime with charge on crit chance) - Major pantheon - Ele Aegis on max hit calc (only gives EHP?) ----------------- TO FARM ----------------- League Mechanics: - Harvest: Crafting - Essence: Armour + Weapon crafting

Raider gives you: - A lot of movement speed - Spell Suppression - Easy damage (Frenzy charges and -20% exposure) - Phasing - Ailment immunity - Lots of evasion Spectral Helix gives you: - Big circle AOE and Pierce all enemies with 0 investment - Huge scaling from added damage (250%) The PoB has an early tree that already gets to 1.2million DPS with a 2 mod claw, WITH 1 SPECTRAL HELIX, people will usually consider that one cast can hit bosses 2-3 times depending on boss size The PoB is also super conservative, no scorch/brittle, no intimidate, no shock

This is a build I'm planning to league start. It probably does and will suck. But I'd be happy for feedback on it anyway. Maybe there are other players like me who don't assume that all these fancy things people put on builds are attainable and want a no-budget ssf build, or this build may just be useful input to someone somehow. It's got 100% spell supp, 13k max phys hit, 90% evasion, and 110k dps. This is without shock, onslaught or power charges (though I am doing shock, onslaught and assassins mark on hit). It uses smoke

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
