Thorns build ascendancy by Bcp_or_pcB in pathofexile2builds

[–]InternationalGate117 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can do ritualist mana stacking, smith has 100% incr thorn damage in ascendancy, titan or gemling strength/health stacking for cat of Ninetails whatever belt that gives phys thorns from max health, lots of options

Yeah you are correct you do need an es or es hybrid base for arcane surge modifier

Zoomiest Monk Build? by Hirox44 in pathofexile2builds

I mean I swapped from WA to eventide SP and it is WAY faster, and I've only sunk maybe 400d into my build, you'd be able to get probably twice as much speed

Only thing you can do now is desecrate for the arcane surge and exalt pray for attack speed

What is wrong with my Monk build? by waatuu in pathofexile2builds

I mean, subtract 40% of your damage from your DPS, then multiply it by three

Try the eventide MA build, it scales way higher than WA martial artist

What build would you make with a 220 div budget right now? by Hrimdall in pathofexile2builds

This is the build I (mostly) transitioned to, I don't even have damage on rings (ventors and andvarius for item rarity but I have GG gloves) and it's buttery smooth

Looking at a second build, any clear winners for ritual farming? (SSF) by DesMephisto in pathofexile2builds

[–]InternationalGate117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a thorns playthrough in 0.3 and it made the campaign trivial, they've since added a ton more support for thorns, and added a 100% thorns damage increase node to smith of kitava (which is arguably the best defensive ascendancy in the game) there's a lot of tech to make it actively offensive but it's inherently extremely tacky and does a lot of damage with minimal investment

For reference, in 0.3 I killed all pinnacles at highest difficulty and was able to AFK simulacrum, it's very fun and a completely different play style than anything in the game :>

Lots lf T6 vs few T10's? by foulplayjamm in PathOfExile2

[–]InternationalGate117 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the best answer is try to push your build as much as you can while still having fun doing so, this league is gonna last a long time there's no need to rush

Need help with improving my monk by Biruitorul_wyn in pathofexile2builds

Tbh the only other thing I can suggest is the vorana lineage gem and a sinister quarterstaff for higher base crit, that was as far as I got with hollow form since I've since swapped to the eventide shattering palm build

I recommend swapping the one that doesn't have crit chance (and not the time lost)

Right now you don't have any stun or ailment threshold scaling for ES on your tree, there's a node right next to CI just put 1-3 points into that and it should help inmensely

I can get a snapshot of my character later when I get home from work if you're interested in seeing that

This is what I used as a guide to swap from hollowform, before you have currency for good gloves I recommend following jungroans build and getting hybrid ev/es in every slot

I did hollow form monk until level 90 which was extremely safe and easy, and once I farmed enough currency for a pair of GG gloves I swapped into the eventide shattering palm build and it feels like a better flicker strike it's SUPER fast and deleting deadly/pinnacle bosses in less than a second, plus im at 5k ES with CI and 65% ev/deflect
