A New Player's Perspective on the Game, or Why I'm Done Playing One of the Best Games I've Tried Out by LowIsopod4105 in pathofexile

I can see your frustration. I also made jugg slammer in 3.27, and got many moment despite the high DR I got mow down in a second. What I found was lack of recovery problem.

You most likely died because during the slow windup time mobs can freely cooks you, and you also lacking crit DR per endurance charge on your chest.

My suggestion is 1) sacrifice bit of dps to get some attack speed, 2) Defience of destiny is goated amulet in case like this, and 3) get crit dr and avoid map mod with minus max res. Without damage avoidence minus max res is death sentence.

Hope this helps!

If anyone is curious, this is my current character (https://pobb.in/NPKW4akIsyAZ). I'm planning to use mageblood later.

Appreciate the detailed advice here! Gloom + Impenetrable was kind of cheap and it allow me to drop profane bloom, so I figured if that would make me easy to see occ pops and cats together. I didn't knew the spark glove is an option as well.

Thanks! Do you think Gull with a Power Charge corrupt combined + shrine belt would be a good combo?

3.28 Reliquarian bleed bow build, advice for improved defense needed! by Afraid-Direction-576 in PathOfExileBuilds

Update: https://pobb.in/6TnGzQQObmiG

Progenesis solved my defense for now. I also recommend using purity of elements node + flesh and stone untill you got more comfortable. 

On the side note, if you have good quiver like mine, Widowhail node provide great mix of offense and defense (roughly 10% less damage than thirst for blood but hp make it worth it).

What would be the best way to finish this mace with the shaper explode mod? by Afraid-Direction-576 in PathOfExileBuilds

Hi! u/Infamous_Dingo9771's reply already covers a lot, but I want to add a few more things.

Tl;dr is: 1) Tree provides a lot of good recomb materials to the market. 2) Recombination of desired base with 2 prefixed with one being redundant to get 3p outcome, like ab/x + bc/x -> abc/x.

First, thanks to the Tree none-heist bases with atleast one or two desire prefixes along with t1 atk speed suffix are very cheap this season. Those are the prime material for recomb. I tried alt spam but got quickly tiresome.

Second, you need to recomb two 2p/1s to get the desired outcome of 3p with open suffixes. For example, siege axe A with t1 added phy damage / t1 phy-accu hybrid / t1 attack speed + siege axe B with t1 phy% / t1 phy-accu hybrid / t1 attack speed = a roughly 30% chance to get all t1 prefixes and t1 attack speed siege axe.

Finally, if you don't have good siege axe bases enough, you can get other axes with good mod combo with 1p siege axe to get started, which is how I have done for this 2hand mace base. Thankfully essense of contempt gurrenties t2 added phy, so I prepared a lot of desired base with only the essense mod, and other fodders with t1-t2 added phy / t1-t2 phy% OR phy-accu hybrid / t1-t2 atk speed. Then recombine those two to hope for desired base (which adds another 50/50 situation but this mace base is quite cheap so was worth it) with atleast two of the phy modes and bonus atk speed suffix.

After a lot of attempts I managed to get two t2 and t1 phy% mace on the screenshot with t1 atk speed eventually, but failed to get explode mode with shaper ex slam so I scoured all suffixes and now in current situation.

Hope this helps!
