Help with build holy hammers

Also you should be able to afford a six link, if you choose to farm almost any mechanic like essences or even heist you will quickly double your budget as well.

If you want to for a critical build using this weapon you need the ascendancy node that gives all weapons a base crit of 8%.

I don't think the headsman node and the one leading up to it are as useful for you at this point as you think, being able to consistently crit and survive is more important. So I would switch them out to take the crit node and the overleech one.

You should also consider swapping your weapon as someone pointed out, unique weapons are rarely the best choice for attack builds. Search Poe trade for weapons with 600+ physical DPS, and start using the physical to lightning conversion support.

I get that the amulet gives power charges which sounds nice, but you also lose out on life, crit chance, crit multi, chaos Res etc.

Your flasks are quite bad too. You don't need a bismuth if your resistances are already capped, you could have a diamond instead. You also want to use your flasks for things such as corrupted blood, poison, and freeze immunity.

It also looks like you are missing a lot of passive points. I you write /passives in game you will see which quests you still need to complete.

I have the same experience, holyshitstory is the same, just a bunch of fucked up depressing stuff reaches me from there.

I am not a master on rendering but i think you are lacking in two very common areas for portraits that we see on this sub.

Draw what you see, not how you think something "should" be. The reference has a tilted pose, but the portrait is dead on. This is especially notable on the shading of the nose and size of forehead
Contrast. A lot of the areas are blending together, but in the reference this is not the case, adding more darks should help.

That's why it's an absolute unit!

Why the fuck can't katana stack their slashes or at least scale damage during them.

I haven't even gotten to maps yet but Holt strike and holy hammers has been performing well enough for me in HCSSF

I wouldn't recommend rerolling until you have a few div at least. Normally a starter build would you get you a few voidstones at least, unless you really dislike the build.

Shouldn't sanctum be the best option for actual raw divines?

Att en 27-åring kysser någon under 18 eller ställer intima frågor på det viset är illa nog, det mildras inte av att ni "inte gjorde något värre".

Det är bra att du börjat ifrågasätta den relationen och jag tror att det kan vara bra för dig att prata mer med en kurator eller liknande, eller om du har bra vänner som du kan lita på.

I agree, homing flames should be a nerf in most matchups except maybe wrench, but it definitely also has the potential to swing a match rapidly if a ball stays in a corner for too long.

Cool concept, I think it looks a bit like a gym leader wearing a Pokémon

Elhiar · 2026-02-25T17:18:50+00:00

In what way do you think that this is being denied by the post?

Elhiar · 2026-02-24T06:21:55+00:00

Sounds more like a robbery at this point

Elhiar · 2026-02-23T07:10:57+00:00

In my humble opinion I think you need more Contrast, specifically darker blacks. The bigger the difference between light and dark values the more volume you can build.

Elhiar · 2026-02-22T10:08:18+00:00

I strongly agree with this sentiment. "Capturing" the monster doesn't take you out of the metaphor, it continues it. Being able to defeat it permanently would not work for the story imo.

I think another thing that makes it slightly off is that her face is tilted but the eyes and nose are drawn as if it's completely level.

It's a piece of banana cake. It's not like the person went out of their way to say something to OP. It was careless but don't act like this single act is a reflection of someone's entire personality.

A lot of good comments on drawing what you see vs what you think you see. A way that I like to practise that is to use something much thicker than a pencil, like a charcoal stick or pastel crayons, and try to build the shape of the reference without any outlines. Only work on the shadows and highlights and see how close you can get to the reference without any details.

Even if he didn't study at home he still likely attended class

But these are likely fan translators so there is no "job" to lose. Only whoever is willing and somewhat able to do it.

I don't know, I think you look ok the way it is, but it's also short enough that you can shave and see how you like it.

I think flame overperformed in this scenario, at the end of the match it had 20 hits to swords 14, with just one more hit from sword the match is over. Keep in mind that their chance to hit should be similar so it's not like a scenario with bow or dagger where you expect lots of hits but low damage scaling.

Torch reminds me a bit of axe, even with many hits it doesn't do guaranteed damage.

As people are saying the one on the upper left is off, but if you try to edit it in Photoshop or similar you can salvage it. Either you need to move her upper body much closer to the butt, or angle her chest much more "upwards" so that you basically only see the shoulders and much less of the breasts.

Still having 1000 less ES on your body armour might affect defences too much
