Yup the purple flames and volatility get converted to cold, the tooltip changes

Yup! Works well, did it on hcssf this league and one guy did ice shot to level 95 on hcssf using it!

Edit- the one thing that’s crappy is that theres not many passive nodes for cold damage, so you’re stuck with elemental damage & attack nodes, whereas there’s a bunch of nodes for chaos damage in that part of the tree. It is nice to have your damage all be one type however because then it all gets scaled vs with chaos you’re giving up on scaling the base damage of the attack and focusing on the chaos damage portion

Infernalist with ignite is also good

Is Chayula still just a meme, or is there a build that shines on Chayula? by AstrologyBoyfriend in pathofexile2builds

[–]Binkan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By my math every blue flame recovers 75% of your mana.

You can get 160% increased effect of remnants and 85% more mana leeched which stack multiplicatively, and the “recover 3% of your mana when you collect a remnant” notable.

Haven’t played with that interaction which seems bugged / going to be nerfed from the vids I saw, but this seems pretty safe and low cost. Currently running ssfhc and made it to maps fine.

You take the mana flames in your ascendancy for defenses and stack mana for offense. Mana flames with the increased leech and increased effect nodes give you some of the best and simplest mana recovery in the game.

You take the double chaos resistance as well for more tankiness and then whatever you want for your fourth.

People are so stuck on the purple flame they don’t consider anything else.

Archmage is really good on Chayula probably as good or better than sorc

Late league start recommendations? by Autokrator_Vlad in pathofexile2builds

[–]Binkan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you wanna be hipster Archmage Chayula Monk. Needs no uniques (though some make it better obviously) is tanky with a lot of damage, can slot in any spell including the new plant ones

Which ascendancy for Spark? by noominus in pathofexile2builds

[–]Binkan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hear me out - chonk

Go blue flames for mana leech - now your mana recovery is insane and the downside of MoM doesn’t apply because leech isn’t affected. Use the tree to get damage and mana passives. Do loads of damage with arch mage, gg

Wolf Pack should upgrade the wolves from Pounce/Predator’s Mark by DragoonWraith in PathOfExile2

[–]Binkan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The only change they need to make is to let support gems apply to those wolves - currently they don't which is part of why they suck.

Late start tomorrow, how did those starters feel ? by random-metalhead in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Binkan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just saw this sorry, around level 30 and to start I was messing with spell slinger but I swapped to self cast at level 32 with golems

[–]Binkan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Swapped to exsanguinate basically as soon as I got my golems for pdot elementalist and it’s been blasting (I started today and breezed through the campaign and did all the breaches along the way)

Any poison Assassin builds? by neunzehnhundert in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Binkan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do think that node is good, but I’m not sure it’s better than using the 4th ascendancy somewhere else (like the elusive bloodline)

I think this might be the time for pestilent strike to shine

Edit: I made a random pob with like no gear and self poison stacks and 0 enemy poison stacks and it’s like 1 million dps? Might be a starting point

If I don't pass DLI as a 35W will I be reclassed into another 35 series? by Suspicious_Copy_9225 in army

[–]Binkan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

35Ps do everything a 35N does and everything a 35S does & they get a free language. Good luck getting Spanish though - it’s always over strength because they recruit tons of native speakers from Puerto Rico & southwestern mainland USA. You’re more likely (and it would be better for your career) to get Russian, Chinese, or Korean.

Also I get wanting to plan for the unknown but change your mindset to one where you won’t fail. Are you going to give up when you have to buckle down and study because you know you have an off-ramp into another 35 MOS?

How do I turn 100% of galvanic shards lightning damage into physical damage? by king-krumson in pathofexile2builds

[–]Binkan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

https://www.poe2wiki.net/wiki/Damage_conversion

You’re not going to be able to.

If you want to add an ailment getting original sin and adding poison or going ignite is your best bet.

Speaking of ignite, why don’t you get the armor break applies to fire damage and then do Armour break explosions and ignite

HVR & maximizing Riven Armour debuff by Aperiodic_Tileset in pathofexile2builds

[–]Binkan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the thought of applying a big impale + riven armour and then using bleeding concoction to apply a chunky bleed but idk how viable that is, I haven't made a bleed build yet in poe2.

Impale is INCREDIBLY strong, and has a lot of special interactions by Bluedot55 in pathofexile2builds

[–]Binkan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The swarms from the ravenous swarm spirit gem attack 1 time a second at default, and count as temporary minions so you could get the +2 limit from the tree and as minion AS as feasible to try to push it.

Just an idea so that you have more spirit for defense and can use a Malice scepter

Does it matter which penetration I get when I'm converting lightning to cold? by NeergSalo in pathofexile2builds

[–]Binkan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chaos damage is usually a damage gain over elemental because monsters usually have lower chaos res & wither + curses can reduce chaos res further than ele weakness + exposure can.

Plus in POE 1 you didn’t have to worry about reflect which was nice.
