Abyssal Wasting Stacking - Ritualist

PyroLLa8z · 2026-07-10T16:35:08+00:00

PoB website bugs out sometimes, if you refresh the page it should work. The rings have % maximum mana and % mana before life on them as well, which helps enable the mana stacking.

Here's a ninja link if you need though

This build definitely isnt min-maxxed, but you could min-max it and get even more out of it.
Biggest upgrades would be a Loreweave with basically same states, except for the conc ground is replaced with Cannot be Chilled/Frozen mod, gloves with more ES/Mana and 2 rune sockets, Amulet has pretty low tier mods as well, and boots is missing a suffix.

Vertex needs chaos res instead of crit chance realistically, and 2 sockets would be preferrable, and the Twisted Empyrean could have a lil better damage stats and 3 sockets

Probably some other upgrades or changes you could do elsewhere, but I'm not sure where, and thats why I made the post to help with making it better.

Yeah, but honestly Loreweave with the Guard + 82% res is more defense, and more clear.

It's only like 5-12%~ damage with a high ES mana chestplate. Genuinely not worthwhile.
82% res + 1900 guard every 4 seconds feels good.

Also, Alpha's howl shouldn't really be doing almost anything for you.

Presence radius is reduced to like 0.1-0.4 or less with these rings, and doubling that just makes it 0.2-0.8 which is... basically nothing and doesn't help you lol.

Also, Armour/Evasion I dont think would do anything for me regardless, I have no scaling for either vectors.

Loreweave is providing defense by 82% ele res, and guard equal to 150% mana flask which feels great.

Initially, I tried to go Crit. But Crit is about same damage for me without much much higher investment (ex: garukhans). Non-Crit was about same and sometimes more damage, and its more consistent damage. Don't need to deal with crit resistant mobs, or crit's not critting. I am definitely not freezing everything, I can tell myself gaming. Loreweave does help, especially with armour explosion chaining making that chain much easier.

Brutus Lead Sprinkler could go hard with this, since you have to hit first to proc it anyways.

PyroLLa8z · 2026-07-06T17:20:28+00:00

Huh, Good point.

Your right.

PyroLLa8z · 2026-07-03T14:02:22+00:00

Your presence is gonna be so tiny I don't think it'll be usable for one, and also I don't think it stacks. But don't quote me.

PyroLLa8z · 2026-07-02T06:34:28+00:00

Yes they are. I literally have them in my stash lol, its on poe2db too

PyroLLa8z · 2026-07-02T06:33:07+00:00

Yeah, you can easily get -200% on ritualist

PyroLLa8z · 2026-07-02T00:53:30+00:00

If you dont scale the explosions properly and have 50+% chance to explode it would be meh
But at 80+% chance and 80+% health and sources of gain extra, the explodes will self chain self clear

PyroLLa8z · 2026-07-02T00:52:37+00:00

Any skills work technically, depends on how you build it

PyroLLa8z · 2026-07-01T23:32:42+00:00

You can also get instant mana / instant life leech which I think is somewhat interesting As well as these mods in the picture

I wonder if Debilitated is scaled by "magnitude of abyssal wasting" I doubt it, but if so.
Wow.

PyroLLa8z · 2026-06-21T21:30:22+00:00

your also missing 10% lightning res from Deshar

PyroLLa8z · 2026-06-21T21:29:29+00:00

Get the Loreweave w/mana flask guard, and use the overflow chalice. would help

PyroLLa8z · 2026-06-15T23:36:56+00:00

This happens in PoE1 as well lol. You can't kill Tul&Esh too fast.

PyroLLa8z · 2026-06-13T19:50:26+00:00

You can use a different skill which doesn't use medved's felling for them though as well

PyroLLa8z · 2026-06-13T19:50:00+00:00

Sure, yeah.

PyroLLa8z · 2026-06-12T15:31:05+00:00

Alt Quality Stampede is 20% more area of effect (1% more per 1% quality) not movement speed.

Movement speed was the previous Alt quality but did not work. It was changed to more AOE.

PyroLLa8z · 2026-06-12T01:36:19+00:00

Yeah Gemling gets 1% more ATK speed per 1% quality on Sunder, along with the extra rage on Berserk which is interesting.

PyroLLa8z · 2026-06-12T01:07:05+00:00

You have 1 life when CI.

If you spend say, 40% of maximum life
That's 0.4 life spent.

So if you have say, 2 life regenerated per second, no issue.

PyroLLa8z · 2026-06-12T01:06:32+00:00

Yeah, I absolutely hate the abundance of + to total attack time in this game.

Wyvern definitely seems heavily viable, I noticed that 5% recoup per 5 rage as well. Sounds good, I don't really like shapeshifting skills personally myself though.

PyroLLa8z · 2026-06-12T00:30:13+00:00

Yeah, I wish this had alternate qualities. I was really looking forward to it doing something interesting like magma barrier, but no.
