PoE League Starter, SSF builds with custom stat filters

Pros: +Good damage from SSF Gear +Marauder "caster" + Good clear and good boss damage + Tanky Cons: - 2 buttons playstile (BF set blades -- BB go brr) - clunky if lacking cast speed - Mana can be a problem Leveling: Use a templar to mule PFlame after hillock Chromatic items are good color PFlame + Added Fire + Onslaugh Craft added fire damage on Sceptre early (ruby ring + alteration + sceptre) Use HFTotem to help on single target Leap slam to move aro

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

I've been PoB warrior'ing for awhile and I think I've settled on my league starter. Main criteria was melee, strong overall build (mapping + bossing), and tanky as possible. Was thinking boneshatter slayer, but I avoided it for a couple of reasons; Vaal Pact annoys me and Slayer needs it to be acceptably tanky, and Slayer is kind of bad at bossing without very high investment. That being said, I love the Boneshatter Playstyle, and as a long time HC player I have a special place in my heart for Juggernaut. Juggernaut also deals with trauma stacks very very well. After review, Jugg has very

PoB containing two alternate trees for an Absolution Guardian starter, for SSFHC. (Can be adopted to your league) (Two different trees) Burden of Truth can be switched until obtained. Might make a comphrensive minions ( Absolution and others) guide on here later.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION - These notes are a super condensed version of the following guide for new players, beginner & casuals: - In case you are a beginner, it's highly recommended to use the detailed version of the guide! - You can download a tailor-made loot filter for this build here: (campaign) / (endgame, once you've completed all campaign-related parts of the guide) - I'd love to hear your feedback regardign this

Im using magnate and saffell's frame for endgame, but im not really sure about how the droprate going to be. Feel free to correct or improve anything thats wrong edit: revised with swapping sniper's mark and mana cost issues

Been playing the game for years at this point but never really tried to pull a build together of my own. Nothing is really catching my eye as a league starter outside of Absolution. Looking to get some feedback on the build I pulled together. I play SCSSF and think this should be a good starting point with super basic gear. Anything I am missing or mistakes I have made?

Trying to put together a BV-Poison Trickster build for league start. I'd like to start out SSF, so I've thrown together the following: I made a trade version too with some uniques and investment gear: Any suggestions? Appreciate the help!

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

Here's a quick update to Kay's popcorn SRS build I'm considering for SSF league start this Friday. I've tweaked a few things, increased some defenses. Have a SSF starter gear set and bare bones tree and damage looks decent. Any thoughts? I'll need to tweak the build more once PoB updates with new craft bases and gem modifications.

I've got a ton of hours in PoE and want to league start a selfmade build in SSF this upcoming league. The idea is to use arc in a 6 link (with overcharge support) to deliver fat shocks and to use a 6 linked lightning conduit for actual damage. Im not worried about the damage numbers etc since PoB isn't updated yet and all that, but how does the tree/links look? All items I put in the build are also very basic. Also a crit build since I really need the damage considering trickster will be a low damage ascendancy. I'll be taking p

get alchemists mark effect enchant if it exists (30% mark effect is from this, otherwise get hexblast aoe, despair effect or an aura reservation ig) problems that im willing to drop some damage for: - no phys mitigation (grav mod on chest) - no spell suppression (gonna write this off as too hard to cap without dropping too much ES for comfort) max res on shield - mana (no room for clarity, can't go EB and CI) - maybe swap to life and go EB? idk - recovery sucks - maybe.........drop profane bloom.....................yikes maybe swap wand base to accumulator if ur nasty, i just used driftw

Guide: Formula for shock application: 0.5(D/T)^(0.4)(1+M) D: damage dealt, T: ailment threshold, M: increases to effect of shock. Ailment threshold is 7M on Sirius and Pinnacle bosses. Use this spreadsheet to figure out how much damage you need to do to apply max shock on Sirius: DON'T FORGET TO REMOVE THE SHOCK IN T

I have thrown this together in the last hour or so as an quick idea to make best use of the new Cloak of Flame. Its still very rough around the Edges and needs to be fleshed out. Its meant for a Leaguestart SSF Enviroment. It includes Cloak of Flame and a Warlords Helmet though which may need a few days to obtain, longer if unlucky. But i am confident you could live off of Armour longer if needed. I am thankful for any ideas to improve it. I am sure i have some oversights i could easily include since i didnt spend very long on it and im unfamilar with Melee based scaling. None of the gear b

Hi all, thinking of doing as the title suggests, have a pob here: Taking Polymath, One step ahead, Escape artist, Soul drinker Playstyle for bossing would be dropping sigil, orb of storms, then spamming CL A few notes about the pob, hydrosphere is only there because I couldn't figure out how to add the apply -lightning res gloves implicit, tailwind has been checked off to simulate one step ahead, and changes to trickster have been added in the custom modifiers except for the 92% monster action speed modifier. This is just a quic

Nothing here is finalized, but so far this is my most fleshed-out attempt at an SSF league starter for 3.19. This one is built for maximum ease of gearing and ease of play. Everything that costs mana is on a Lifetap and I let Tukohama's leech take care of sustain. Tasalio phys as fire is maybe better now that some of our armour scaling has been nerfed. Immortal Call is on a CWDT, although I may end up manually casting it and Enduring Cry is on left click. It's more for the rapid heal but of course I need something to proc Valako. VMS would certainly be a better guard skill, so if you have othe

From what we've seen so far, do you guys think zerker with rage and impale would be a good choice for 3.19? Here's a quick pob I threw together (not sure if I'm calculating the dps of it correctly but it looks promising). Perhaps the new buffed chieftain node will also make fire conversion good, but I doubt it will change a lot. Doesn't need anything special, just a decent axe. I think it will be a good league starter and ssf build, but I'm worried about defences. But then again defences are getting gutted so may as well go full
