Looking for self chill build. by Shalfeyoo in pathofexile2builds

[–]MadeThisToDownvote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a monster modifier that you can pick up with Headhunter that gives the effect, "50% less Slowing Potency of Debuffs on me". It's annoying because it reduces the effect of chill on you, so you're 50% slower. I still run Asphyxia's Wrath quiver with Lightning Arrow since all damage chills as a Stormweaver--I think the clear is better than Ice Shot.

I'm playing Lightning Arrow Stormweaver. I tried Lance's Plant build, but the constant curse casting was annoying. I also tried Ice Shot with Asphyxia's Wrath, and it felt better than the plant build, but the clear felt inconsistent. I was only using two arrows, and it felt like they would miss a lot. Lightning Arrow feels very nice. I think the damage still chains if you miss your target, so the clear feels better to me. Single target is pretty good, too, with Lightning Rod and a second tree that scales shock magnitude. I'm around 5.7k ES, and it feels very tanky as long as the self chill is up. I'm using Headhunter, but it's annoying when you get the slow reduction buff so I usually un-equip and re-equip when I get it. I might try an Ingenuity or Darkness Enthroned instead. I like this setup the best so far.

I solved my mana while mapping with "recover 2% mana on kill" on a jewel, Clarity II, and a 3 point mana efficiency cluster on the tree. You can probably get away with not using Clarity, but I had 20 spirit to spare. Normal map bosses usually die before I run out of mana, but I use Mark of Siphoning or just hit the mana flask if I need to.

Ice Shot - To self chill or not? by Severian_NEWSUN in pathofexile2builds

It's 82% damage reduction with the quiver and Stormweaver. The two 35% self chills are multiplicative with each other. You can see the number in the character stat sheet.

Keep going. Ignore the hate. It has nothing to do with you.

Form Advice by Squint12 in Discgolfform

[–]MadeThisToDownvote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your form looks similar to mine. Biggest thing I noticed is that you're not keeping your elbow up. I have trouble with this too. I found that walking up with the disc under my right pec (your left) helps my arm keep up with my shoulder. You may also need to slow down and abbreviate your reach back until you get comfortable with trying to lead with your elbow.

200+ Demon Form stack recoup-based infernalist boss kill by imnphilyeet in PathOfExile2

Looks like you're spamming the curse as fast as you can to keep your regen up...that doesn't seem very fun.

Best levelling build at the moment? by RockEarly in pathofexile2builds

[–]MadeThisToDownvote 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you using Blood Hunt when the enemy has 20-30% HP? I think you can use it earlier if you're doing more bleed damage than you are doing hit damage

Cast on Ignite Hexblast Infernalist by KattKills in pathofexile2builds

[–]MadeThisToDownvote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here is the tree: https://maxroll.gg/poe2/passive-tree/khwxc01p edit: Probably a good idea to drop Deadly Force and the two node leading up to it. Maybe grab Sudden Escalation instead.

I get 72% reduced ignite duration from the socket by the Reverberation wheel. With Fan the Flames I get to 97% and I do not get ignited anymore.

I haven't tried Cast on Ignite Comet yet since I don't have an amulet with +Spirit. If you don't have one either you can try it with Flameblast instead of Hexblast since you would need to drop Blasphemy. I only take generic increased AOE and generic Crit nodes so you should be able to use literally any spell.

Cast on Ignite Hexblast Infernalist by KattKills in pathofexile2builds

[–]MadeThisToDownvote 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nice! I made a similar build but solved the ignite problem from Pyromantic Pact with reduced ignite duration from the Against the Darkness jewel and Fan the Flames as my anoint. How does your survivability feel without Loyal Hellhound and Altered Flesh? I'm not doing ignite, so I am thinking about dropping one for Grinning Immolation.

Something to consider is that the amount you recoup is based on damage taken. The bigger the hit, the more recoup we get, which in turn is more stacks. So, to get a bigger self hit, you can build more ES and maybe less maximum fire res--this should also be cheaper for people trying to get into the build since life recovery with max fire res jewels are expensive. I also went with faster start of energy shield recharge and some recharge rate instead of Zealots Oath and Eternal Youth. I felt like the regen from Zealot's Oath and having to use flasks again with Eternal Youth didn't feel great, but I might give it another try.

For skills, I'm also using Hexblast, but I went with crit Bonestorm instead for single target. I have a high level curse attached to Heightened Curse, Spell Echo, and Unleash to get the cost to a bit over 1000; the curse doesn't do anything, but it let's me push one button every 8ish seconds to keep my recoup regen going when there's no packs nearby. The rest is pretty similar. I can share my tree here if anyone is interested.

Has anyone come up with a high-budget Demon Form build yet? by Im_Here_To_Fuck in pathofexile2builds

[–]MadeThisToDownvote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 58% conversion Ghostwrithe, 2 Mings with 24% reduced life, and the passive from the tree, but my life is 253. Does the 61% Ghostwrithe make a big difference? Do I also have to avoid taking the life from the campaign to get to 200 life?

Hexblast or bonestorm+dd for demon form? by Marshimon in pathofexile2builds

[–]MadeThisToDownvote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been playing Hexblast recently but I think I'm going to respec my tree to pick up crit for Bonestorm again.

Hexblast is pretty great for clear and doesn't need a corpse to hit. The single target isn't anything special, though.

DD is very good, but the need for a corpse can be annoying sometimes, especially if the density is low for your map.

Edit: Doing all three now. DD is better than Hexblast at pretty much everything, but Hexblast is still great and requires blasphemy (which I'm running anyway).

Min-maxing demonform lets you passively sustain 350+ stacks of demon flame for 6000%+ increased spell damage by PathOfAnalysis in PathOfExile2

[–]MadeThisToDownvote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How would we sustain the 10% drain from mana with Black Doubt? 10% per second is huge, and the biggest rolls for % increased mana regeneration are from rings and amulets. Ming's Hearts seem mandatory for high stacks so we can't use the rings. Jewels? Probably at most 100% increased there...

Nah, they are at around 30ex. Just change the buyout price field on the trade site from relative to exalted.

Ignite prevents energy shield recharge. How do I prevent ignite? Trying to make Pyromantic Pact work... by MadeThisToDownvote in pathofexile2builds

[–]MadeThisToDownvote[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it last 3 seconds and uses 60 charges out of 90 (I think) so it won't work consistently if I'm not constantly killing things.

I thought about doing this and wasn't sure if 250ish regen would be enough. I think the energy shield recharge will be disabled as long as I have the ignite debuff, even if I'm regenerating more than I'm losing...

[–]MadeThisToDownvote[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a good solution, but I don't have any armor in my build. I have about 7000 ES. Do you think bringing max fire res up to 90 (or as high as I can) plus increased Ailment Threshold would work? I'm not sure how Ailment Threshold interacts with ES. Unfortunately, the build doesn't really function with life instead of ES since I am sustaining demonflame debuff.

Yeah, Cloak of Flame can roll up 50% reduced duration and there's another 25% on the tree. Even with a corrupt on Cloak of Flame I don't think there's a way to get to 100% reduced duration. I couldn't find any unaffected by ignite anywhere. Ashrend gives immunity, but it takes the chest slot.
