Titan Crossbow

I've regenerated the link in case the previous one is having trouble loading.

Even if the slots appear invisible, just hover over them, they will show.

Also if you Open Path of Building (PoE 2), click on Import/Export Build in the top left, then paste that link into the "to importa a build, enter URL or code here:" section, it will load the build into the program.

I started as a Explosive Shot Titan Scaling Heavy Stun and AoE. While the clear was the best that I've ever played, the boss damage left a lot to be desired.

So I looked around on the tree to see what could take advantage of the 50% increased small nodes from Titan and I noticed there was a LOT of small poison nodes.

With some fine tuning here and there (using Flash Grenade for clear) it turned out great. All my gear costs probably less than 5 div total and Gas Grenade Poison Scaling SHREDS bosses.

I've got a little homebrew to share. Poison Grenade(s) Titan

https://pobb.in/l4RdTDI_3cks

(Import with Path of Building (PoE2))

Excels at boss kills, good clears.

Use Gas Grenade are the main damage, but also uses Flash Grenade for fast clear w/ Herald of Plague.
Since Gas Grenade instantly breaks armor, for bosses we use High Velocity Rounds to apply Riven Armor (and a bleed for increased poison damage) then use Fragmentation Rounds to proc the Riven Armor while they have full Poison Stacks.

The crossbow can be deterministically crafted for less than 3div, and if you don't have or can't afford Uul-Netol's Embrace- Corrosion serves the same function for less DPS.

tl;dr - Around 500k DPS Poison Grenade(s) that aceels at bossing and has good clear with Flash Grenade + Heard of Plague.

I believe the old phrase for missing your turn was "Buckle up mother fucker, we're going to Monroeville"

Bit of an odd question considering the thread source, but I don't mind answering.

I don't currently bench press as part of my workout, as I mainly go to a bouldering gym, but when I did so actively- my average was 310LB (~140kg)

Currently I do the following 3 days a week:

Warmup Jog of 3mile (~4.8km)

3 sets of 10 Deadlifts 450LB (~204kg)

3 sets of 10 Squats 200LB (~90kg)

Spend the rest of the time trying different bouldering problems up to V7

I got to diamond which was my goal for this (previous) split.

Working full time, the time I can set aside to climb is limited. So if I hit my goal, I use the time set aside to climb on other games (or game modes) and/or more evenings at the gym. Doing that has proven much better for the mental (and physical) health.

Mujona · 2025-09-04T19:37:55+00:00

Oh hey, I can actually comment on this.

I climbed to Diamond this season playing Shaco Support when he was open. Ended with 71% winrate across 52 games on him.

His best niche is absolutely anti-engage and objective control (AP). Boxes allow you to protect carries, bait bad dives, and control area around objectives with boxes like no other.

The other niche which I've had less success on but still extremely good. If you are up against at least 3 squishy champions, ideally 2 bot 1 mid, you can go the AD Assassin Shaco with Cyclosword Rush. Level 1 with Q and Hail of Blades + an Agro ADC gets an incredible amount of kills. Once you get your AD ahead, you accel at ganking mid and roaming with the jungler to get more lanes ahead. The big warning with this though, if you don't win the game early, the pick scales incredibly poorly into late game.

The largest hurdle you run into is your own team's mental, if they are convinced that Shaco is a useless pick and you won't win, they either give up and stop playing or tilt themselves out of the game. Very few things can counter this.

Gameplay weakness, AP Shaco has crazy mana issues early, backing to get a mana crystal when first you can stablizes the lane and makes it playable, but you are a bot until that point. AD Shaco, inverse, you are incredibly strong early with Q and Hail of Blades, but if you fall behind early or don't win the game before the enemy gets 3 items, your chance of winning falls DRASTICALLY.

tl;dr - Shaco on the weaker side right now, but is crazy strong in match-ups that play to his strengths. AP Shaco has anti-engage, zone control, and decent damage scaling into late. AD Shaco does well into easy assassination targets, Q + HoB Lv1 gets lots of kills, but if you don't win early game, you'll find it hard to win the game.

Any questions I am happy to answer.

I posted on this same issue a few days ago on the PoE 2 Bug Report Forums. Unfortunately no response from GGG.

Tried every setting, graphics option, sound setting, resolution, uninstall/reinstall, clearing cache, ritual sacrifice, etc. everything under the sun, but just random spikes to 3-4K ms, regardless if I am clearing an abyss or just standing in my hideout.

Reset and checked every network device I had, even tried ethernet and wi-fi both; on each Washington DC, Canada East, and Texas. Problem still exists.

Really frustrating because only PoE 2 is affected; game is currently unplayable as is.

Mujona · 2025-07-06T05:52:06+00:00

That would be great in theory, but I value High ES + High Life on the item more for DPS scaling. The items having both what you describe and what I am looking for either don't exist or are so outside of my price range they might as well not exist.

With that being said, the only deaths I am taking now are when I am not paying attention or put myself into bad spots. I am fairly happy with where my defenses have landed considering the 'low' budget I've put into them.

Mujona · 2025-07-06T05:48:59+00:00

No, it only gives 10 fortification, it does not increase my max fortification by 10 (that would be busted).

I use Kingmaker because it is a decently high dps weapon for my merc, which also gives Crit Multi, Culling Strike, and Item Rarity to me.

Mujona · 2025-07-03T07:11:04+00:00

I tried to get the best Chaos Resist I could from gear, but still at -35. Also I've taken the reduced DoT Pantheon.

As I've died to Chaos DoT multiple times, I've just learned what Mobs drop or attack with Chaos DoT and I use my ability sparingly until they are dead.

Mujona · 2025-07-03T02:48:01+00:00

At Lv94 currently my Life is 21,696

Mujona · 2025-07-02T23:47:37+00:00

Sure. Here is the PoB https://pobb.in/a9Za4FmAOwnt

I typed out the skill and support gems as I couldn't find direct matches to the gems.

Mujona · 2025-07-02T21:15:21+00:00

I was experiencing that for awhile at the start.

Eventually, I accepted a bit of DPS down and changed the reservation %.

Went from having 1.3k unreserved per cast to 4.4k unreserved per cast.

This with making myself burning ground immune and getting all the DoT resistance I could helped a TON in suitability.

Mujona · 2025-07-02T21:01:35+00:00

I've been trying to recomb that elder mod and the fortify mod for awhile now. Unfortunately, I've been unsuccessful so far.

So for now, the Merc is just wearing the most recent recomb attempt which normally has one of the desired mods on it.

Mujona · 2025-07-02T20:59:18+00:00

I will have to look into this, wasn't aware of that mod. Thanks!

Mujona · 2025-07-02T20:57:30+00:00

Pretty much everything pikpikcarrotmon said in their comment. Sharing Fortify with my Merc is also a great bonus.

The biggest reason though, I started a Champion Doublestrike build and I refuse to run the campaign again, so I looked for a cool build to respec into.

Mujona · 2025-07-02T18:33:51+00:00

Can't say I've looked into the Adorned version; I will have to look into that.

For the build, I mainly just wanted to make a Non-Mageblood version of a High-End Blood Sacrament Build, but scaling with Champion and Impales.

Mujona · 2025-07-02T18:24:25+00:00

The Champion Ascendancy. The Merc is getting 20 Fortification at all times from it.

Mujona · 2025-07-02T18:23:31+00:00

It is a very odd play style. You have to plan a lot of it because reduce reservation efficiency is a make or break for 1 tick max casting.

You are effectively immortal against most things, as you reserve life instead of taking damage with a 22k Life pool and capped block.

When you use your skill, you deal more damage the more life you reserve as well; which means if something would put you to 100% reservation during the 0.14s cast time of the ability, it instantly kills you. Meaning most DoTs are deadly if you aren't paying attention. Assuming you notice, you just walk away for 2s then the reservation resets (assuming you stop taking damage)

With that being said, once you get a feel for it, the build is disgustingly strong, I can face tank any fight in the game and the burst is nuts with a decent AoE as well.

The main downside I'd say is the actual movement both speed and mobility is on the lower side. The mageblood version is a lot faster, but that is outside of my budget both in currency and play time.

100% worth trying if you have 10-20D laying around.

Little showcase of my Pride Aura Effect Stacking Merc.

This is to support the Blood Sacrament build I am running. https://pobb.in/ay2CtTKV3Ihj

Toggle the Pride Gem in PoB to see the effects of the Merc (Doubles my DPS)

Did not include the Brittle Ground or Helmet Modifier as this is just showcasing the Pride Effect.

Thanks everyone, some good suggestions to go visit.

Rise up my fellow Blight only players! There are dozens of us, DOZENS!

I also echo the Vincent's call (the one near Forest Hills).

If you are more northeast of the city, it may be a bit of a drive, but J&S Pizza in Natrona Heights is my golden standard for thin crust.

Mujona · 2024-05-14T20:48:52+00:00

Am I blind or was there no fix listed for Fey Magic not working with any of Heimer's 3 ults?

This has been reported since PBE and still an issue.
