PoE Hexblast builds with custom stat filters

First off, let me get this out of the way. This isn't going to be a meta build, there's probably better selfcast builds than this too, and i'm sure mines will do better damage. I just hate mines and don't want to play it, and wanted to see what I can do with Archmage on leaguestart. Also many of the more popular ways to scale hexblast involve some very expensive uniques, and since most traditional archmage items are relatively cheap (Ivory Tower <5c launch day). I thought it might be a decent league starter, so lets give it a try. It does roughly 20M Pinnacle Boss DPS, and some PoB warr

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

Make sure you pick the right tree, gear set and skills (disable others) for whatever part of the build you're at, also change doom accordingly (30 is base) If you want to use Berek's Respite or Abberath's Hooves, make sure you're not using Ignite Proliferation or it breaks the chains. Get Singularity when you can, otherwise use an item like the rare wand in the PoB items Emperor's Vigilance is disgustingly strong and lets us have max spell/attack block until we go to staff with no downside from GB In transition, either enlighten main auras

Hi, guys! I've been POBing this build since the Flame Surge rework was announced. I think after the recent pob push, I can share it. I play SSSFHC so this build is quite tanky. If that's not your thing, simply go clusters and get 3-10x the DPS. 10/21 Edit: I don't plan to update this even after LocalIdentity1 pushes out the new POB. I will simply make another post a week after league start concerning my progress. If you have questions, IGN: LefthandedIRL &x200B; With decent SSF gear (Day 8 or 9 or lvl 97-98) ^(The

Hexblast/Doom Blast utilizing a self-cast Despair (which is twice as effective with clusters) and 100% chance to poison (can be achieved thru several methods, I used Divergent HoA). Also, I didnt realize until lvl 90 that Impending Doom could be supported by support gems, so this PoB shows it now in a 5L. I'm using Punishment, Enfeeble, Temporal Chains in Vixen's Entrapment. This is my biggest defense. Even if any enemy rushes you and winds up an attack. If you cast despair, it will slow the attack, they barely move and you can cast Hexblast to kill the entire screen. Also once any enemy is
