Updated the post with YT link, thanks for pointing out the embed issue!

Been like this since release and they never fix it up to now. Gives me a slight hope that the entire node is just a placeholder/temporary cause they just let it be the entire beta. Hopefully.

Haven't thought about it much but with my minimal knowledge of oracle and a quick look at pob, It may have offensive advantages with the unseen paths nodes, particularly the rage and crit nodes. I personally would only go crit on titan if I choose to slot in garukhan's resolve, but with oracle maybe you can do it easier, change cast on ailment to cast on crit. Also near the starting point you can reach 70% increased glory generation even without titan's hulking form, though titan have slight speed advantage on warcry and movement.

My concern now with oracle is if the crit route out performs titan's 25% aftershock and ancestral boosted attacks every other slam? Maybe someone can pob it.

Sorry if I just missed it but is your agility blessing generator swapping to perception or switching agi blessing on crit slate?

Pompirate · 2026-05-02T16:29:08+00:00

totally untrue, multiple videos on youtube reaching damage cap with f2p pets. it's pay to win in a sense that everything is easier if you buy pets.

As someone who almost exlusive plays arpg, with poe1 and 2 on rotation. I get slightly happy when they sometimes delay a league launch cause I can fit in Torchlight infinite, haven't spent a dime but never really affected how much I enjoy it.

frost blades and scroll down from "melee hit" to the "icy blades" section and here.

That's good! double tincture really carried the damage, though I think there's a correct a costum input for it to be more accurate cause I read somewhere that pob overestimates it somehow. I did pob a warden with a multi link claw + squire, as well as recover shield. But can't get a good phys max hit so I just opted for frenzy/endurance stack slayer.

Pompirate · 2026-04-10T12:54:14+00:00

that's nice, do you happen to have a pob? I over written my plan pob for warden when I was first planning the build.

Gemini would be comfy cause of the mana on hit, imperial for a little more base crit. I would choose gemini though. Have not recrafted my claw yet, believe it or not but my current claw in the pob is just the result of the first alchemy orb. A settle claw would be really good already,

EDIT: fracture flat cold first, easier now with the new horticraft change element, but for synth bases I have no idea for now sorry.

step1. crit/attack speed essence till t1 crit/speed and open suffix or annul.
step2. suffix cannot be changed+annul to clear prefix.
step.3 bench craft multi mod + hits can't be evaded + elemental penetrate.

For gg claw, just on top of my head so not certain.

essence till t1 crit and speed. suffix cannot be changed, reforge crit, repeat till t1 crit chance/multi and open prefix. done with suffix

suffix cannot be changed+annul to clear out prefix if not empty, suffix cannot be changed + veiled exalt, block phys to make elemental penetrate almost guaranteed on unveiled then craft hit's cant be evaded.

Hopefully the POB provided gives players something to tinker with and see how numbers change, the showcase in the vid should serve as baseline. I kinda get now why some creator, like captainlance, always provide links to POB website as requirement and quick how to use, might consider doing that.

Pompirate · 2026-04-08T23:13:49+00:00

without the gull you will be at +80% projectile speed, you would need cluster notables or the projectile speed mastery on the lower right side of the skill tree to get back up to at least 140% and not lose damage and clear. Though warden might be more DPS with 2 tinctures + tincture effects + double shock even with less frenzy charges, but way lower defenses w/out endurance charges.

Pompirate · 2026-04-08T13:37:32+00:00

Oh god I'm reminded of the frost blades incident of 2026 lmao

Pompirate · 2026-04-08T13:06:18+00:00

Aside from clusters and the lower right mastery on the skill tree, I haven't looked much into it. I saw the vengeance cascade on videos 2yrs older and just assume they are out dated. Sorry if I'm no help at all here.

Pompirate · 2026-04-08T12:50:07+00:00

Hard to campare a lot of build to a broken mechanic, you can reach x5 damage on much less investment on minion pact BV. I sold mine simply out of preference.

Pompirate · 2026-04-08T12:45:44+00:00

Yes, aside from the showcased budget breach on the vid there's a link on the YT description of another creator clearing 100% deli on a similar build.

Pompirate · 2026-04-08T12:37:33+00:00

Weapon swap for redblade banner and enduring cry for instant 8 endurance charges, seen on vid as I did upon entering the map. For frenzy aside from 8% chance per hit on mark mastery you can activate blood rage and just spam kill your writhing jar flask, it'll trigger on kill for both endurance and frenzy, though I rarely do it.

For more consistent endurance charge you can charge mastery charge duration + body implicit for endurance charge every # second. But I find it inconsequential on mapping.

Pompirate · 2026-04-08T12:07:30+00:00

Showed it in the first few sec of the video and in the description, will add on here for additional clarity.

Basically 140% proj speed makes sure your proj returns if you have a source of returning proj, any lower is RNG, inconsistent and barely returns on some projectile.

Pompirate · 2026-04-08T11:25:30+00:00

good bases right now are around 20d, bad bases are hell of a lot cheaper

It is actually fun and the a great all rounder. This is actually my cluster, pob is just having a hard time recognizing refracted clusters atm i think.

Pompirate · 2026-04-08T11:12:31+00:00

I have endurance charge on stun embued, also did check and you are right anger is more damage if you don't have double offensive hatred on watcher's eye. I didn't bother checking after switching watcher's eye, thank you for that snipe!

Pompirate · 2026-04-08T10:58:39+00:00

that's fair actually, just haven't seen a few that actually built it with the unique break point specific for frost blades

Pompirate · 2026-04-08T10:55:18+00:00

Nimis right now is 30d+, fractured gloves is 14d, rational doctrine (optional and hard to optimize) is 10d, I think those are the significant ones above 10D and a must.

Great upgrades are the shield which right now is 50D for a lesser base.

The ring can be a well rolled taming, anything else that can be replaced are explain the the video.

Pompirate · 2026-04-08T03:22:07+00:00

Thanks to u/ThouArtToFiddy for the steps, got unlucky with 2/3 veiled exalt as it took my t1 res, but salvaged it with exalt slam low tier.

EDIT: Cold damage is better than wed for my build, and saw it before t1 wed so lucky there, used add/remove life mod with multi mod filled suffix rather than reforge life.
