PoE Assassin, Bossing builds

Doubts on the Split and Piercing Shots. Those points might be more useful elsewhere...

I'm looking to make a divine ire bossing build. 40% damage while channeling doesn't do much against bosses but damage looks OK I'm looking for things I could incorporate to either increase damage and cast speed in expense of defences for bossing. But also I'd like to make a variant for slow mapping investing on defences (I have no idea how to do this but I'd have to drop doryani I guess).

Atlas tree : Shrine / Ritual / Strongboxes / Essences Shrine / Ritual / Strongboxes / Expeditions

PoB: T16: So I made a Molten Strike Assassin with about 1-2 div investment that relies on Mantra of Flames buff stacks (which have to be edited into PoB) and specifically fortify (which gives 100 buffs regardless of cap), multiplied by Replica Last Resort. Damage is ok (1.4m melee dps and 1m per ball with 6 balls that are slowed to hit a single target well). At lvl 91 it can do T16s comfortably (with essesnces/strongboxes and harbingers on my tree not causing too much of an issue) and Maven Atlas Invitations, I haven't tested it on

This is the time of the league where I go off the deep end and start thinking of weird shit to try. Shield skills have caught my attention recently due to the fact that you can have a scaling weapon equipped (like Dreamfeather) for attacks without actually using it. Void Battery seemed interesting to me since it gives huge scaling based on Power Charges, which could be shifted to attacks with Crown of Eyes. Plugging in just gems and uniques into a reasonable tree put me at around 3.7m Shaper DPS, which means with proper investment I'm expecting this to be a reasonably well rounded character.

Asenath's Gentle Touch is cheap AF this league and makes PBV insane ATM for farming T16s. Ming's Heart + chaos catalyst is crazy damage for phys poison builds. Obliteration is also pretty crazy. Arcanist Brand BFBB makes the build's bossing much more acceptable for dumb fights, and is a moderate investment gear swap. The tree is set up for fast shield charging + QoL things like big AoE for mapping, inc. skill duration, unleash seals, charge on kill, etc. Despite all of this it absolutely slaps damage-wise. PoBs are fluffed up a bit because of low life settings. Feel free to add '15% less da

Hi people, Im not a guide maker but I came up with this Idea and made this meme about it you may have seen on the main subreddit: , I really couldn't stop thinking about it: so here is a messy essay on how this build works. OK here goes, im doing an absurd write up on meme build im league starting, Heres a fully thought out PoB , this is probably the closest to how this build will function as a league start character in end game and does NOT include any extreme hig
