- The Total Damage Number Below is My ticks are against bosses. So Didn't include things like Vaal Impurity of Ice, Vaal Molten Shell or any vaal skill as Pinnacle Bosses do not allow us enough time to get these active before we kill them. - My Extra 10300 Armour is because I took node "20% increased armour per second while stationary with maximum 100% increased armour" and I am so most times against bosses. And POB didnt account for that. (or i didn't know how.) - I bound my left mouse key to molten shell to left mouse button so when i do move out of the way of bosses, I still get +5000 armo

SC TRADE WARNING: I am 100% six portal pilled and this is not hc viable and probably not ssf friendly either It should be obvious to everyone, but beyond wild strike being in a bad spot for scaling it's in a worse spot to level with. I will be suffering because I like leveling with the skill I want to run. I'll be maybe leveling frost blades until wild strike feels competent, no I will not test this before league start. W

Hey all, I think I've got a decent iteration of an Ignite build, but want it looked at in case I missed something. I also make zero promises on the cost of this build, though the fact the "PoB Warrior" setup uses Ashes of the Stars but not Mageblood makes me want to estimate it at like 150-200 divines for that version, except the staff is probably never happening in real gameplay. PoB: Note that the PoB is set to the less cracked out gear with Punishment and Convergence not activated. Toggle Enemy on Low Life to enable punishment's damage boost. Highlights:

Posting my build idea I've been working on so i can get any tips for improvement in the comments and also as inspiration to my fellow melee ignite hype men. I think this has great potential and it has a lot of room for upgrades when i farm up the currency for it. However i will say i do plan on playing this character as fire trap/Frostblink until i can self farm Story Of The Vaal and Dyadian Dawn because i think starting level 1 as melee ignite will still be kinda painful lmao.

I'm going to try to keep it short and sweet, Inferno blow with controlled blaze is very good on paper. Open to any criticism and changes, the tree kinda triggers me lol. Controlled blaze in calcs setup to 70% more ignite for single target. Day 1 level 80 Swap: You level as arma/crema/Woc then change when you get story of the vaal. Multistrike and ruthless do not work well with Infernal blow sadly so Haste is mega important to get good attack speed numbers. Possible endgame setup: Calc stuff is just tatoos with red nightmare

Here we go, concept of a build I'm toying since this evening, after someone threw at me the idea of melee elemental hit, me answering it was shit, him holding his ground, and me checking a bit more and finding insane synergies about it. Concept of the build: \- Elementalist, because the damage is just that good and shaper of storm is clutch. Slayer is an alternative. \- Elemental hit, replacing your weapon with an attack doing a large amount of flat damage. You use the usual suspect to block cold and lightning, even if I toyed w

I was working on a molten strike chieftain starter and ended up coming up with this: &x200B; The defenses look pretty nice, and I was planning to replace 2 of the skill gems with returning projectiles and trauma support when they get added. I wasn't really sure how to get the correct dps in pob for molten strike so I'm just hoping it's significantly higher than what the number I got is lol. &x200B; Any suggestions to improve this? Going non crit for league start cause it just seemed easier.

&x200B; Very straightforward and tanky enough build, all the items are easily gotten in the first days. With a better weapon, stack more damage in the items and you can squeeze much more dps out of this. Frenzy charge generation will be huge. A lot of potential here? Glad is one of my favourite ascendancies so I'm happy to start with this.

So far, we have very expensive equipment and barely any damage, even trying to account for the new strat with the new support gems (Controlled Blaze Support, Sadism Support) and a synergestic one (Swift Affliction Support). Together, they give 4.66x damage if one can manage to hit 13 times, igniting 13 times, over 4 seconds. Yet this isn't enough to catapult it past a few million DPS, even with very good gear. Perhaps there are better ways to scale ignite than what I'm using, as otherwise, this build will never scale into a strong build.

One of my big worries is completely converting the last 50% of my smite damage to lightning i cant seem to find any decent methods except lightning mastery or vessel of vinktar which neither seem very good.

Earthshatter is a slam. 200% AD scaling and creates 4 spikes which deal 30% less when shattered. All spikes can hit the same target if AOE lines up. General's cry linked to earthshatter creates up to 5 dudes who each slam, each creating 4 spikes, and with one cry, up to 20 spikes are created (max spikes is per mirage dude from testing, so doesn't hit direct attack player cap of 15 - this is the critical bit that spawned this idea), all fairly close to one another due to how the gen cry dudes run up to melee range before slamming. Earthshatter spikes can be shattered with any warcry, or a

I was testing a slow strike build. So I had the idea of using The Impaler. So for that I would prefer damage over speed. Going the Heavy Strike pure Phys route with Magnate to make Double/Triple Damage chance. And also trying to get 90% res with convert from phys to elm to make a really tank build. I tried with really basic gear in a 5-L setup (Ancestral Call is for the ascendancy and the configs for Max Res, Cold/Lightning Res and 33% more damage are also for ascendancy), so there is also the increase of the Trauma Support. PoB doesn't calculate Impales you inflict on Non-Impaled Enemies

I know, it's a long title so I'll explain. The idea of the build is stacking as much as possible fire resistance to get 90 max all elemental resistances with the new chieftain nodes. In addition, we will transform the overcapped fire resistance to armour increase using The formless flame helmet (later on maybe the grasping mail mod). Transforming most of the physical damage taken to elemental (lightning coil + watcher eye mod + taste of hate?) and since we will have at least 400K armour, we will be able to stack many trauma stacks for raw physical damage. We can have almost capped block chanc

Hi All. Preamble first...I'm fully aware I won't have the exact items in this build. I should be able to get a decent 3 mod watchers since I have a ton of auras, but I'm aware it 99.99% won't be exactly the one I have listed. I know I should swap the spiked gloves since eater/exarch overwrite, but I'm lazy so I just took off the melee phys. I've been playing a long time, and I just use my initial pob as a guide to what I'm looking for. Most of this shit should be rather cheap, with the most expensive stuff being the watchers (can even go budget on this) and the gems. I plan to grind out
