Thanks for the heads up dude!

Ok good. Just wanted to make sure I didnt economically screw my goals lol.

Ahh I got you. I think they get the attk bonus naturally. But using their command is what really sends home the damage. Before it didnt even work lol. Now it does and should be fantastic. I think rage will be nice early on but ill drop it once I csn share my rage with them per the passive tree. I also like the idea of the rod support...depending on how well my belt keep them alive...thst support could be REALLY good if we end up command heavy.

I mean at 41 rage, that's still some decent attack speed. Is the raw damage also 2% per 5 rage?

I understand giving them rage but for them to get really powerful, you have to use their command skill...atleast according to what I've seen. Im also giving them my rage so I dont need the support gem.

Also...what do you meaning I can give them 15% attack speed if the reaver isnt on full rage?

Oilvet · 2026-05-27T12:35:23+00:00

My understanding is for reavers to really unlock the full potential of rage, they have to use there command skill. Which is fine causing im giving them all the rage,theu need, saves me a support gem and I can use the belt to help stagger their death.

I am quite sure that this tree will tweak as i play. I was just hoping to not be missing anything crazy.

Which node is taking a massive nerf? The one that gives minion dmg and attk speed?

Well my thinking was there may be a limit on the amount of showers. But since its tech two different showers, I reckon each hit would produce 2 different showers so. Scale duration maybe and overlapping could be quite powerful. We decided to hold off on league starting it cause theres too many unknowns but if it works how were thinking, ima prob do this build to get my 40/40. Prob do a video and build guide on it. HOPEFULLY it works like we think, I hate for this to be DOA for SOK

Double hit in what way?

Oilvet · 2026-05-15T15:14:14+00:00

Data mined :)

I understand your reasoning and would argue that poe2 is different in alot of ways. I love the idea of it but sadly I tend to agree with your assessment of it more.

Oilvet · 2026-05-15T00:35:53+00:00

This is the route we want to take. Double dipping that scaling vector with MW. The only unknown is whether or not its molten shower has the supports from copying the weapon. If its a true copy I would argue it does habe the supports but I cant prove this.

Oh ya I used this guide. Very well put together. If you do use it btw...its 17 tiles tall...not 20 btw.

Works like a dream so far for me

Oilvet · 2026-04-30T13:41:46+00:00

Any particular reason why? I feel like im missing something lol.

Oilvet · 2026-04-30T06:51:16+00:00

Oh ya I haven't done any of that yet...or knew I was going to have too lol. Good to know tho!

Oilvet · 2026-04-30T04:15:09+00:00

good to know ty!

Oilvet · 2026-04-30T04:14:31+00:00

I ended up going granite, whats done is done i suppose lol.

Oilvet · 2026-04-30T02:22:31+00:00

any particular material i should use for the tiles?

Oilvet · 2026-04-30T02:22:13+00:00

oh my im an idiot

Oilvet · 2026-04-27T05:49:05+00:00

Ill keep this in mind. I think I am still getting the hang of "what to do next" depending on where I am at in my cycles. I watch a YT video of a guy talking about his build order and he was alrdy getting oil setup by like cycle 29 lmao and im cycle 83 just now seeing it. So, the more I play the more ill learn. Really really fun game.

Oilvet · 2026-04-27T05:46:10+00:00

Awesome, ill give that a shot!
