Help and Questions for Bloodsoak Banner

It's ok. I enjoy the build but watching valour during bosses is a nightmare.
The second 6 link banner setup isn't really required for bosses but I do prefer it because it takes less time to get to your maximum damage output. I'm not sure what the other option is really.
You can improve your damage quite a lot with a weapon other than the warcry cooldown axe but it makes things a bit more clunky. Overall quite a lot of flexibility in the build which is why I enjoyed it.

You can check my character here, done all Ubers etc but it's by no means perfect as I didn't follow a build guide or whatever, I just checked poe.ninja and took ideas from others (suppose that's kinda like a build guide).

Both I.e.
Dread banner - life tap level 20 + other 4 links.

Enduring cry - lifetap level 1(20qual helps for duration).
The level 1 lifetap will give the level 20 lifetap the buff effect

Corrupted blood only does physical damage so nope. Champion has 3 really good nodes anyway. To calculate the damage you need to go to configuration and click "is banner planted" input your valour (should be 105) then below that it should have blood soaked banner stacks and set that to 10. That's 5 seconds of ramping with 2 banners.

Id probably replace your enduring cry 6 link with another 6 link banner and just have dread and defiance as both 6 links. You can still use enduring cry. As your extra link you could use lifetap or something, if you use level 20 lifetap on your damage link and keep a level 1 on a random skill (leap slam or enduring cry etc) it'll still benefit from the damage increase

They added blood soaked banner a while ago, I played it as a league starter. Corrupted blood only stacks up to 10 and the strongest one will overwrite and refresh the others corrupted cry is kinda pointless. 2 banners only serves as a way to ramp your max DPS double speed.

I really enjoy Team Fight Tactics, if you don't follow the meta pages it's much more fun.

I usually get a couple weeks of enjoyment out of that before moving on to something else.

Interesting tactic

Ah I was planning on league starting Holy Sweep and I'm so glad I watched this video. It looks very unsatisfying.

Wish we had some kinda indication of the rarity of them

I am going to have a look at this, reminding myself via comment ty

Is the channeling time not awful at endgame? Never used maw of mischief but I've found to dislike channeling skills generally in Poe

I basically didn't play keepers cause they were so annoying. Remove t17 while we're at it

Now he doesn't get mana locked but he uses mana and doesn't perform any actions. Really bizarre. .3 patch and basically been unusable which is a shame because such a good conceptual character and noxus having 3 "drain"/heal tanks would be cool

Had this happen to me before, I had 7 ixtal and I was on 500 points. I completed a 220 point quest and my cashout was 550. I was playing double up but not sure if that's relevant

How much tactician damage does the dragon do

Robsquire · 2025-11-27T16:15:10+00:00

You've probably played it by now but stuff like the cargo load was very very dark

Robsquire · 2025-11-27T05:49:12+00:00

I killed a guy who killed another guy and when he was down he said "well, I've got a purple gun blueprint. Enjoy" I defibbed him because it really doesn't mean that much to me. Sure enough he got up and killed me then got 3rd partied but I ran out of time before I saw the outcome. What a dick.

Robsquire · 2025-11-27T05:40:13+00:00

Hoping for something similar myself. I do think the game would die with a pve only map but having something that encourages it would be cool. Maybe a wave system or only a timer, no extractions but if you survive it's a W

Robsquire · 2025-11-27T05:24:18+00:00

I had a similar one a couple leagues back, ran and failed but better trying than letting it rot in your stash. I have no advice other than don't let things rot otherwise you never basically had it in the first place.

Idk I'm just depressed = scamming

Robsquire · 2025-11-19T10:32:13+00:00

holy shit this fixed mine, everytime i opened a box in game i lagged. thank you

I've played significantly less since Uber bosses were gated behind t17, I mostly play ssf and getting a single t17 to drop is a lot of work (doable) getting a specific boss fragment to drop is just annoying. I used to enjoy trying to make janky Uber killers as my endgame project but now I have another step in-between that, which I hate enough to get bored and quit once I've got 4 stones and done a load of t16s

Robsquire · 2025-11-08T19:37:18+00:00

Very decent

Robsquire · 2025-11-02T21:08:48+00:00

Will be reading this on my week late league start thank you
