PoE Brand builds without Blade Trap of Greatswords, Explosive Trap of Shrapnel, Flicker Strike, Flicker Strike of Power

PoB: Exsanguinate + Arcanist Brand From what I saw, Exsanguinate doesn't seem like an amazing spell to self-cast. Spell Totems seem like the obvious solution, but I think Arcanist Brands will provide the smoothest playstyle. Exsanguinate doesn't seem to suffer from its downsides (a lot). Question: Is the DoT debuff affected by the damage reduction from Arcanist Brand? I can see it going both ways depending on how one interprets the wording. If not, this could turn out godly. If it does, still not the biggest deal when

I was wondering if Battlemage would scale well into the endgame, and I think I found a shell that has a lot of potential. Eternity Shroud pairs well with Inquisitor's Inevitable Judgment ignoring all elemental resistances, and allows you to add a lot of flat elemental damage in many slots without worrying about penetration or curses. Seems to reach 280m damage from a 20 stack Penance Brand with temporary buffs like Divergent Berserk, but still 100+ m without. The items seem quite feasible to craft now with Harvest, although probably really hard next league. I also included non-physical version

&x200B; This is an idea that I stumbled upon today, looks promising, but I am not sure if I will have time to test it in practice. It uses Martyr of innocence to get some base fire damage (Battlemage), Eye of malice for -120 resistances and Malachai's Artifice for EE (that is probably not needed, but it saves some points and also provides more reliable EE) Another big part are the flasks, but the idea is to do enough damage to 1 shot bosses or boss phases. This is obviously not a full fledged build, just a template, but

A tribute to Harvest crafting... If you have any questions about the build or items, don't hesitate to ask...penance brand is kind of weird to build around and there is usually a reason for my gearing and tree choices although there is a lot of flexibility in both.

Welcome exiles, There's been a lot of interest in this sub for divine ire ignite thanks to the recent elementalist rework. I've spent way too much time theorycrafting and absorbing everything people discussed here (slurp), so I thought I would share my version. (already posted it in response to another thread but I thought it deserved its own thread, and I tidied up a few things since then). So here the focus is on survivability, because I'm really not convinced the other versions posted here are reasonable on that aspect (sorry creator of the "tankyer version", we still love you <3 ), an

Perhaps Lowlife? Would this feel bad without playing Assassin Crit? I'm pretty interested in Heart of Destruction for larger explosions, Shaper of Storms for guaranteed/better shocks, and Bastion of Elements for damage absorption. What are your thoughts? &x200B; I've changed direction to focus on the golem route. Here's what I'm working with so far. Any thoughts?
