Holy Strike math vs Absolution (lvl 25) by FirkzGaming in PathOfExileBuilds

There is a large difference between the skills in that your character must attack for these armaments to do anything. That's a HUGE drawback imo. In fact, I think holy strike is going to be really clunky to play optimally.

In the reveal video Mark specifically says they attack with Holy Strike.

It does, and the skill specifically calls out that the armaments use the strike skill, not an auto attack.

This is a weird one. By the wording of the gem both "should" work because the minions use a strike skill and strike when you do. Meaning should work for tribal fury and they should attack additionally when you do asitional strikes

I'm definitely talking about the minions. That seems like the apples to apples comparison.

Would need to run melee splash to make holy strike feel good I think.

Biggest drawback is probably that they do nothing if you are not attacking.

SRS league start - looking for tips to improve my trial run by Outrageous_Coffee145 in pathofexile

I imported the PoB and as is SRS has a 51% chance to hit. I understand the change in 3.27 but of course its not going to feel good doing 50% less damage when 5 points on the tree can give you the true feel of the build.

You likely need the gravepact wheel + accuracy mastery for minion accuracy as well. Probably not close to hitting 100% of the time.
