PoE Pathfinder, Heist builds

FAQ < How much area of effect do we want? You want EXACTLY 39% area of effect, since Pathfinder already gives 30% area of effect, this effectively means you have to get 9% aoe somewhere. There are 2 viable options for this: 18% quality on your Toxic Rain gem or 9% aoe craft on gloves or amulet. I'd recommend the craft since it's hard to get a 21/18 TR gem Why does the tree say 3.19? I want a 3.20 build! This PoB was made before PoB was updated to 3.20, nothing really changes for this build tree-wise, it does gain a bit of damage from the despair

The idea is pretty simple, but getting numbers for min maxing is hard. You cant drink soul ripper during soul gain prevention (you can drink it if you have 0 second soul gain prevention so make sure to balance it being over 0, it should be somewhat close to your attack speed, the sweet spot is unique for every character) we abuse drink when fully charged to get infinite souls, the game ques the flask up and recharges souls instantly. You need to get enough flask charges during your vaal skill duration to automate soul gains. (chalice+crits for bosses and chalice+ailments as pathfinder for maps

After Nemesis mods kicked my first build around to much I looked into a more defensive type of build. My idea was to build around the Transcendence keystone and stacking armour. What catched my eye was the 3.19 newly buffed Lightning Coil (50% phys to lightning). It is a perfect fit for the build since you want to convert 100% physical damage from hits to elemental. I found a single profile that went with the idea and had some interesting items: Replica Dreamfather, Formless Inferno and Emperor's Vigilance. The ascendancy was Pathfinder for permanent flask uptime. We stack armour and fire

This is not meant to serve as a guide, more of a showcase of whats possible and why i plan to play it. this build brings: high dps with low investment (currently sitting at 12mil, can easily double that on higher investment) a comfortable play style, just normal totem things. an insane recovery mechanic, you are near immortal to all hits. dots still hurt. auto flask usage really pretty mtx (celestial caustic arrow is so pretty😊) the option to spec into crazy movement speed optional self cast + fo

Hey ! I'm working on a poison BV Pathfinder for speed-clearing heist in 3.17. So, objectives are in this order : - Movement speed - Tankyness - Damage (just needed to kill somethings on the way and refilling flasks, no bossing, all contracts will be run white). I plan to level as PC, and switch to BV whit a little budget. My current PoB, it's mid-to-end-gamish... :

After torturing myself with possibly the most clunky earthshatter slam build last league, I've decided to return to the good ol' Cyclone CoC archetype. Mostly inspired by this build ( and the relative juiciness of PF TR to league start post-patch, Pathfinder looks like an overall top-tier class in which to invest. ​ Obviously, this endgame min-maxed PoB will still be able to do all content with ~200m DPS, but the question is whether a mid-range build that transitions from TR at 20-30 ex investment will suffice for elder/shaper guardians and above.
