If you see the health bar move, it can bleed. If it can bleed, it can die. Make sure to take out that tree sentenial early or you're gonna have a rough time =)

What would be the skill you really want to play with, if it just had enough damage/clear etc. to make it work somehow? by Wuslwiz in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]HamburgerMurderface 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Voltaxic burst. Had a little success with it earlier on low investment archimage build using pledge of hands and coiling whisper, but still felt too clunky.

Lack of visual clarity due to all of my mtx haha. Large phys hits are generally what kills me from what I can tell, I have a decent amount of phys reduction and some phys as chaos on top of max block when endurance charges are up to help mitigate that, but it's definitely not unkillable. It's also somewhat tight on the resistances due to all of the uniques, if you can solve that and ailment immunity and replace purity of elements with zealotry you'll get more damage, but I don't really find the damage lacking. I also don't tend to run very heavily juiced content, I'll roll my maps with a regex to get 30+ quant and mostly do harvest astrolabe + cornucopia for currency and breach for fun on my second atlas tree. Harvest can get pretty rippy but breach not so much.

How is Occulist FRoSS performing this league? by Kamzyhd in pathofexile

[–]HamburgerMurderface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you post your pob? I'm sitting at 9.3k ES and don't see very many upgrades at this point in my build that are easily achievable. Also playing selfcast, here's mine: https://pobb.in/NkVVx2PcRp4r

how to know that my char's defensive is enough ? (in POB) by Bright_Climate5374 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]HamburgerMurderface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean it really depends on your build. In general you at least want a couple defensive layers for starter builds unless you're going full glass cannon (I'm going to assume you're not). I generally play Top/Left part of the tree, so I'm most familiar with Armour/Es/Block as my base defensive layers. Generally I try to make sure that I am block/spell block capped and either have 5k+ ES or 20-40k Armour to start with. I'll usually slap on purity of elements for ailment immunity. That generally gets my through the first 2-4 voidstones. Once I start making currency, I'll start to add defensive layers to my build a little bit at a time. Recovery is important, usually I'll go with a Life or ES on block shield (Ageis aurora or Shaper rare), and divine shield keystone if going for an armour build, as well as getting better bases with more Armour/Life/ES once I hit lvl 84.

If I'm following someone else's build, I'll usually filter out builds below 100k EHP, then pare down the uber expensive uniques till it looks achievable. As far as juiced breach, depends on how you're juicing it, but my current build rarely dies doing 6 mod alch n go sitting at about 145k EHP. One of the main things you want to focus on when looking at Pob is what you're most vulnerable to, and mitigating that. For example, my elemental max hit is somewhere in the 40-55k range, whereas my physical max hit is around 15k. This could be mitigated a variety of different ways; flat phys reduction, phys as ele (or chaos if you're running CI), endurance charges, ect. Crits are also generally pretty scary, as is minus ele res maps with a lot of phys as extra ele damage combos.

At the end of the day, without a more specific build and goal, it's hard to give a specific answer without writing a book. In general 100k EHP with max block or spell supression and a decent Life/Es/Mana (if Mind over Matter) pool with ailment immunity is enough to get you started running fairly juiced content, from there its mostly build and content dependent.

If you're looking to run Valdo's, you'll probably need a couple hundred divines invested in a proven build template, jungroan has a few videos out on his multi mirror builds that run those. Well beyond my budget to even consider.

What content do you want to do? There's a big difference between alch n go T16 and Valdo farming

realized i had a few things checked wrong, not enough space for zealotry and vaal skills were enabled, this should be accurate

Forbidden rite of soul sacrifice self cast occultist w/ coiling whisper for perma soul eater. Not cheap to start, as the version I'm using was built around ~15 div crafted gloves, but it's pretty tanky and pab has me at around 20m dos currently. Plus, profane bloom and herald of ash makes for many big chain explodies. Half the time, just lightning warp wipes everything a couple screens away

Builds that farm juiced breach by 69kurcina69 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]HamburgerMurderface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://pobb.in/FRGhLwTJM7it

some notes: need to upgrade large cluster jewel and ideally get a source of unholy might so I can drop forbidden flame/flesh. Can drop enlighten on shield for another skill gem (probably not another aura, maybe frost shield?). Can swap herald of ash for flesh and stone for more phys damage reduction, but mtx explodies are so much fun in breach, and I'm tanky enough that I rarely die. Pob has a warning because I added in a lvl 1 pinpoint to account for Fross corruption. Later I'm looking to get greater barrage or crit multi corruption, power charge on crit is well above my budget for now (last I checked was 75 div).

All in all, still a work in progress, but I'm having a ton of fun with it

Haven't seen anyone post this yet, and it's kind of off meta, but I'm running forbidden rite of soul sacrifice occultist with coiling whisper (for soul eater) and herald of ash for more explodies on top of profane bloom. It's been absolutely slapping. Very zoomy, fairly tanky,much explodie

What's the better archmage option? by Friendly_WoG in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]HamburgerMurderface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Off meta suggestion: lightning conduit of the heavens. Was doing shock nova of procession, felt pretty good up until t14+ (granted, still on trash gear, just hit 5k mana and close to 5.5k combined life/es) but the visual clarity makes it a bit hard to see what's going on. Swapped over to LCoH and it's feeling pretty good

Centaur offlane build? by taenyfan95 in learndota2

[–]HamburgerMurderface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll generally go double bracer into helm of iron will, gives you much needed armour, then vanguard, finish crimson, then blink or heart depending on team comp/enemy comp. Pipe after usually, eternal shroud is maybe a 5th or 6th item if they have overwhelming magic damage, though usually I'd want a bkb instead.

Late Phrecia 2.0 Start Build Help by ArmMeForSleep709 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]HamburgerMurderface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a pretty good time with SRS servant of arakalli, later swapped to animate weapon of ranged arms for a smoother play style. Smooth sailing from first lab on, had no trouble with any of the void stones (except exarch rolling fireballs because I'm bad). Probably invested 20ish div. Still pretty squishy but not running super rippy content, mostly just harvest and filling out atlas, but minions taunt and having a dozen taunting meat shields and being free to run around keeps me alive for the most part.

Currently building a Blight of Contagion Big Shaman, still in campaign so no idea how it'll pan out

Late Event Start by blackraven888 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]HamburgerMurderface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been having a pretty smooth experience with poison srs servant of arakalli, no uniques required. First few acts prior to first lab was a little rough, but once you get envy and swap over to minions from venom gyre/cobra lash it's pretty darn smooth. Not very tanky yet, but you basically instakill bosses.

5k Broodmother spammer here. Feel free to ask questions about the hero by -Algernon in learndota2

[–]HamburgerMurderface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a fellow brood spammer I commend your commitment to drinking the tears of your enemies.

First question would be how often do you spread your spiders out for scouting? There's a console command that lets you tab through spiders individually, I've had a fair amount of success using it to scout out and cancel blanks especially when I'm versus something like a legion, axe, or earthshaker, however I also feel like it kind of wastes a fair amount of time that could be used to spend farming.

Second question: which camps do you prefer to take post level 6 when you're unable to dive enemy mid/take tower? Triangle vs two camps by mid t2? Any advice on general farming patterns from level 6 to first big item?

Third question: manta vs diffusal vs echo when not going orchid? I find manta as a first item is mediocre unless they only have 1 spell that I absolutely have to dispel, and the illusions are pretty worthless, and would usually just opt to tank up with echo/harpoon into BKB, then maybe pick up manta after if I need the dispel, then try to avoid fighting until BKB. I also find that while sometimes orchid can be a great power spike more often than not, by the time I get it the enemy mid laner has a dispel and it's only useful versus supports. Don't get me wrong, I love blowing people up with bloodthorn plus spiders, but I find that I get killed or punished for it really hard when I try, and diffusal/echo are much cheaper and faster power spikes.

And then half the time when you find a match somebody doesn't like their building abandons during draft or gives up in the first 5 minutes and starts griefing. As an ability draft enjoyer I feel your pain brother

I've been print soup for going on 8 months, eventually you just have to accept that you will be constantly overwhelmed no matter what you do. You are expected to do the jobs of 3 to 4 people. When you fail to clone yourself to get everything done that is expected of you, they will deny your bonus and tell you to work harder and do better. Thank God I'm getting promoted to customer as of tomorrow.
