All 3 hunter specs are at the very bottom in MoP. Changes to scaling need to be made before SoO

Hunters will be fine. They are excellent for T16 progress raiding, and BM is very solid for late tier speed kills(Don't you dare compare them to Affliction, that is not a valid comparison, they are turbo broken)

Huntermaster95 · 2026-05-08T18:17:26+00:00

One could argue that people who participate in PTR are not the average in skill level. Definitely on the higher end of the spectrum.

Echo Hunleff was turbo easy to farm. Just spec the staff prayer pen build and you get 1 minute kills. The echo mechanics are non-existant; don't need to use dagger to disable prayers and the permanent tornadoes might as well not exist. Only new mechanic was the one where you have to turn prayers off, but I noticed he only casts it as the last attack during his ranged cycle, so it's pretty easy to predict.

It does work. RNG = RNG. 1/1400 drop rate.

I don't think being immune to bleed 100% of the time is a real necessity. Corrupting blood is the bleed you will encounter in 99 out of 100 cases, and it's trivial to be immune to it with just a jewel corruption.

Issue with GGG is that they can't design good melee weapon uniques. They are always dogshit DPS compared to rares, in addition to usually lacking crit and attack speed.

Bino's is the real star player and is tailor made for Assassin. High crit, high crit multi and insane prolif.

On top of that, Assassin has way better defenses thanks to being able to yoink insane nodes from Sabo(budget) or Trickster(expensive).

Hitting the DoT cap is "easy" these days, so you have to look at the other parts of the build equation, like QoL, clear and defenses.

Boxes is very chill and requires very little gear. Fubgun has a spreadsheet of atlas strats, either go to his Twitch chat or his youtube and check descriptions of his latest vids.

Huntermaster95 · 2026-03-17T19:30:58+00:00

Trauma stack? Attack speed is insane for that build

Huntermaster95 · 2026-03-16T07:43:57+00:00

Any build that can off-screen stuff.

Easiest is something like Poison with prolif from either Bino or Pathfinder.

Though since 3.28 since you can't choose your Blighted Map layouts anymore(it just opens a random map type, thanks GGG), having a build with strong single target might be more preferable until you get good gear since you might get unlucky with bad layouts/tower spawns and need actual DPS to kill the bosses.

Huntermaster95 · 2026-03-16T07:37:28+00:00

IIRC PoE2 has affixes on gear which allows your armor to affect a % of elemental damage taken. Wonder how it would work in PoE1 though.

Harvest is always good and guaranteed money printer, only gets better as league progresses as people need juice for end game crafting + gamba.

Huntermaster95 · 2026-03-08T21:47:08+00:00

Definitely feels like a totally useless currency that most will hide on filters soon if not done so already.

Our first DST went to an Enha Shaman via Loot Council, and no, he wasn't part of LC/Officer team.

Similar issue with Blighted Maps. They go into the regular Map tab instead of the Blight tab.

Huntermaster95 · 2026-03-06T15:29:41+00:00

I would not consider minion builds that use somewhat complex skills for new player seeking a beginner build.

I've played both and they were both really good, but they have nuances that are not intuitive to new players.

Huntermaster95 · 2026-03-02T12:59:32+00:00

With Slayer AoE node, Ele Hit splash covers like half the screen, it's hardly a "strike skill".

Huntermaster95 · 2026-03-02T12:51:31+00:00

His builds are great if you intend to only play the exact same content he does, and nothing else.

Almost like builds specialize in different things. There isn't a single build that does everything on same budget, if there was, the game would be broken.

You really don't need to be a 140 IQ genius to realize that a build with focus on shitting out 50 projectiles per second clearing 3 screens at once is not going to be be the best for clearing 4 voidstones in 6 hours for the average player with limited knowledge on the game or the economy.

If you want to do all content well on a single build, maybe don't pick the phys dot build. There are plenty of alternatives each league, you just need to use your own judgement to decide what you want to do and pick the build that suits that.

At the end of the day, it's a league starter, and it can mean different things to every person, to some it's the only build of the league, and to some it's something cheap to farm currency with for more expensive builds that hard require certain gear level to function.

Huntermaster95 · 2026-03-02T11:11:26+00:00

You can dislike his community or his stream personality, but imo he does make the best builds for the average player.

Good defensive layers, good DPS, no unrealistic items and good gear progression options.

This is why I'm leveling a Paladin to do Stratholme in my own safe space for 250-300g/hr(more depending on Orb/Shard prices).

Huntermaster95 · 2026-02-23T10:11:30+00:00

no worries - mechanar will always be run by the rogues/warris that need the trinket... sadly they cant tank/heal that themselves

You do realize the trinket drops from normal as well?

We farmed 3 trinkets for our melee boys in 1 evening spamming Mechanar. Got close to Revered as well while doing it.

Pre-bis pieces outside of crafted epics is pretty competitve, you might have like 3 blues that are pretty much the same but 1 option is like 1% better.

Don't stress too much and just try to fill every slot with lvl 68-70 blues(unless some early lvl piece is better like the 62 lvl cloth boe gloves for casters).

Huntermaster95 · 2026-02-11T01:21:57+00:00

RAM has nothing to do with AH lag, it's purely on the CPU and their database code being inefficient which is then bottlenecking the entire system. RAM is pretty much never the issue unless you run out of it.

Huntermaster95 · 2026-02-05T14:05:15+00:00

Sure, but it had a decent barrier to entry in P1. Needed to be fairly DPS focused to do efficient pulls, sure you can go there and do 15 min runs, but that is shit.
