PoE Elemental Overload, Hex builds

Hello :) This is my third league so far. Every League i try and make Scion viable with non-meta skills (managed a Poison Storm Rain Bosser, with your help!) I am still working on a Hexblast-Ignite build (Elementalist would have been the "better" option), however I always prefer tanky builds. This is a pure Mapper, currently at 1.65m "map boss" dps. Guard skill and Endurance charges have been disabled (though when up, I am nearly immortal! 2.08s cd and 2.59s uptime on immortal call) - I couldnt find a good enough dps boost for a second 6-link... Would be happy to hear your thoughts :) [htt

POB \- Lvl 94 CwCwDripAF on ninja Chieftain is currently tied for last with Glad at 0.6%. This is unacceptable. Bear with me, this build started as a meme but is now shredding t16 content so I'll try to explain what's going on Here is my StunCaster league start Chieftain. He started as Vaal Firestorm, but after snagging a good bloodnotch before they became inaccessible, I moved to pure VD/Flame Surge stuncasting. POB above is for my current form of build. Stormshroud jewel was a recent QoL addition but in no way needed. Prior t

Let me preface this with two things. 1. This is an update to the build I posted 2 days ago. Although now I feel it is not just decent, but actually good. 2. I believe this build will have slightly better numbers in 3.20 since we are getting some pretty big buffs to curses but we are also losing base effects of curses, hexblast just has worse numbers for self cast and occultist is getting some minor nerfs. But it will feel much better, since now you don't have to manage doom mechanics. Now into the build itsef. The build has three levels, based around investment. 1. The first level i

Tinkering around a bit with the build I managed to get over 2 million sirus dot dps with pretty low investment (pretty much all of it is used on blackflame). But honestly that works for me considering how shitty all the gear is + and the fact that is dot dps. Defensively the build is lacking, but I feel that the capped glancing blows + temporal chains as an aura makes it tolerable for softcore. The build is mainly centered around 2 things, blackflame and doomblast to trigger elemental overload. With better gear like a cane of kulemak and actually decent rares I feel like the build can be go

POB: I just started putting this together, COTB not an option here. Im having a hard time getting the correct colors on ES so I have swift affliction instead of Empower I know vortex scales really well with levels. Looking for some legit feedback on how I can improve. FYI not all utility gems are setup. TIA

Hi all! So I've decided to try to theorycraft something simple for my first leaguestart without using a guide made by ziz, jungroan, pathofmath, and the like. I'm interested in an ignite build and eventually settled on hexblast ignite because playing with curses also seemed fun. I made a POB and it's hitting 8mill ignite dps on guardians on gear that shouldn't cost more than 7 or 8 ex I think by the second or third week of league. Is this too good to be true? Maybe I invested too little in defenses or something. &x200B; Any input would be appreciated ! :) &x200B; POB:[

My skeleton POB: I like playing ignites, but still want something that plays a bit smoother than EA totems. I currently have 1.3mil Sirus ignite dps with around 30-40c league start investment. &x200B; POB has level 20 gems with no quality, 90%inc life and 140% ES, plus almost capped chaos res from just ascendancy and Blackflame. So there is plenty of room for improvement. Ideas include getting ashes of the stars and divergent Hexblast to help boost dps a lot. Then I have pathed down into the trickster area, but I th

So I got some helpful feedback and decided to change to Hexblast Hierophant, and would love some more opinions and thoughts. thanks guys!
