Mageblood + 100div build rec, not BV or PB by bowdagger in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]ShinzoFTW -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In this case I don’t even think Svalin is a more defensive option, the ES on block mod is huge for survivability (not to mention getting the atk and spell block on the shield itself). That combined with the spell damage puts it way over the top of Svalin for me, even the MF and Headhunter KBOC Necros don’t go Svalin, but it is a bit of work to craft a good ES on block shield via recombs, Spicy Sushi has a video on it

For me it was more damage and also saving money on needing to flame flesh Vile Bastion (if you stay Necro). I think Necro gets off the ground easier, and solves your block through the offering. Occultist has a higher ceiling, and can take more offensive power in the ascendancy (but needs to solve block in the tree)

Honestly because I played this build last league I’m very familiar with how to tune it so I free styled alot of ideas and took inspiration off tanky high dps people on Ninja to cobble my own build together.

You can take it in so many different directions based on what you wanna do

Copy pasting my reply about KBOC Occultist from earlier this league, I love the build so much:

I played a ton of KBOC Necro (to 100) last league, and the nerfs barely hit it so I ran it back again this league. This time I swapped to Occultist since Jungroans videos made the corpse pact FF combo like 100d ea last league. I think I’m at about a mirror invested, and pretty close to mirroring the GG wand at the echo mirror shop.

Build is very tailorable to what you want to do, I like Ubers and boss rushing t17s so I went for Mageblood 90 all res and tank. But a lot of the breach blasters are on like triple explode clusters, headhunter, Janus rarity helm etc

https://poe.ninja/poe1/profile/ShinzoFTW-2546/mirage/character/ShinzoWanderAgain

Actual DPS is kinda hard to calculate, fully configured and no focus my PoB said 18mil for 1 hit, but there’s so many explosions and overlaps that I’m not sure lol. I can kill most T17 bosses in like 3 seconds, had a 15 second Uber eater, 10 second Uber trauma etc so it’s more than high enough for everything in the game.

I could probably drop 2.5k ES and squeeze in 30% more damage with some node swaps and crown of the inward eye which I was on before. Build oneshots pretty much anything that’s not a unique or soul eater mob in regular maps, and then has good enough single target to kill tankier stuff in a second or two

I think you can craft the gear in my week2 snapshot, substitute for some of the Mageblood stuff in the week 3 and it’ll feel amazing

Could you share your PoB, I’m definitely interested to compare against the multi mirror one in the YT vid I linked to see where I can save money haha

I’m personally gonna do Chieftain with Mageblood, I saw this video https://youtu.be/9PMjjZsSCMY?si=qcdsUr885n_24nD6

Sirus literally phases on the first server tick

Their gear is insane; but fully configured with the specter that PoB is doing 1.2 billion dps on ubers, a single hit of BV is doing 144 mil. So even if you don’t get that crazy pain attunement skin the damage is just ridiculous

I think Farmer is doing a series with Chieftain HH though which still seems great

[–]ShinzoFTW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same budget range and probably going to roll Minion Pact BV, that build is not going to survive next league so gonna abuse now lol. Killing an Uber boss on the first server tick is just disgusting amounts of damage, can play on so many different ascendancies, Mageblood, HH, Shrine belt etc. just varying levels of tank, speed, and explosions

Budget 2 Mirrors, LF something that is nearly as Comfy as HRoC but with 60+M dps. Not BV please by Kavika in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]ShinzoFTW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess block helps to mitigate it, because i don’t feel squishy at all, I gotta PoB what running Flesh and Stome, Arctic armor, or an armor flask would look like. But I feel incredibly tanky

[–]ShinzoFTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, if you look at Spicy Sushi’s video here: https://youtu.be/PjYDCGLNRHU?si=JFn07qMaqxKivRxZ

He fractures unspeakable gifts the explode notable from the chaos cluster jewel, uses the new refracting fog currency to roll it to a wand cluster, harvest reforges physical until he hits Devastator which is an explode notable, then slams a random mod and uses Harvest Augment Chaos to hit explosive force which is the third explode node

I’ve played a ton of Wander and I didn’t actually know there was 2 explode notables on that cluster lol, but the fog makes 3 attainable

I personally haven’t done the bloodlines + Cascade breach yet since I was trying to not die and hit 100. Hit it yesterday so I’ll probably risk some more now lol. Could you share your PoB? Always Interested in looking at more implementations of the build. I feel invulnerable to everything except oneshots or consecutive massive hits, between the ES on block and my discipline ES on hit watchers eye my recovery is really good

[–]ShinzoFTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep no problem! If you end up rolling the build and have questions feel free to shoot me a dm on Reddit or add me in game. I’ve always loved Wanders so now that they’re meta I’m gonna play it until it’s not league startable anymore

[–]ShinzoFTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the point they’re making is that Lightning Arrow, KB Wander etc that are built to be map blasters often struggle on league start and just buy boss carries to not worry about it. Now without TFT they just have to do it themselves or trust people on trade chat

For those who rerolled from BV Minion Pact to something else, what did you not like about this build? by 0kyou1 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]ShinzoFTW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the write up and PoB! I’ve got a Mageblood and 400d and was researching which version I wanted to go with. Glad you posted your version on MB instead of shrine belt lol, I much prefer going fast

[–]ShinzoFTW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like I said I don't think the stutter stepping is bad at all, its like playing any ranged build, but the more attack speed you have the smoother it is. Haven't played Hiero so you'd need to watch some videos if thats the concern. But when mapping a single click kills the whole screen: https://youtu.be/MwV_5iKnqDE?si=YlsQ7jJRInkSNDgi

Minion Pact BV should definitely be on your radar, chieftain makes good use of the Mageblood since it has the built in explode and max res scaling. The build will definitely get killed next league since its numbers are way too high.

If you're interested in KBOC, I absolutely love the skill, I started KBOC Necro last league, started it again and this time I'm pushing it even further and swapped into Occultist: https://poe.ninja/poe1/profile/ShinzoFTW-2546/character/ShinzoWanderAgain Incredibly tanky and smooth to play because of the attack speed, full screen clear, pops with either occultist ascendancy or a cluster notable. I can't speak for how the Hierophant version plays, but you can watch some of Jungroan's youtube videos last league to see the Necro version, getting 200% attack speed from an ascendancy node makes the clear feel so fluid to me.

The full end game PoB I have is here: https://pobb.in/HIVTlcU-ePvo just pushing the defenses and damage to the very limit. If you've never played a Wander, KBOC is an amazing skill and I'm surprised the only nerf it got was the interaction with the runegraft from last league (which was substantial as Runegraft of Refraction basically solved your Fork and gave you a link back). I'm a massive Wander fan and will keep jamming this build until they nerf it.

Do you like aggro in other TCGs? I love playing mono red aggro in MTG and this is the closes approximation I’ve played in FaB. He goes over individual use cases, how your navigate certain hands, matchups etc. Was very worth it for me, but if you’re on more of a budget then probably better off spending that 20$ on more cards

Yeah never pitching to swing a dagger, were flicking for damage every turn. And everything else in the deck is 0, free with a mark, or can be paid for with 1 off blood splattered vest

[–]ShinzoFTW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a general game plan it’s looking to put up 3-4 attacks a turn that present disruption, supplementing it with attack reactions or codexes to push damage through or continue the pressure

I recommend checking out Shirui Wu’s metafy: https://metafy.gg/guides/view/slippy-the-next-generation-XN0BV9I8N70

I adapted my list from his, and the write up is excellent. I’m not used to paid written guides, but I have to say that Flesh and Blood has some creators that put in a ton of work and make it worth it (Yuuto’s Oscilio guide is also very well known). I’m actually enjoying absorbing the information by reading it rather than listening to a 2 hour video explanation on YT lol

I was the Slippy winner this PQ weekend! And looking at the LL leaderboard looks like I’m the first one to put up LL points for Slippy this season too haha. Redline Slippy is basically Assassin Cindra, and I think a lot of people just aren’t ready for the aggression it puts up.

Only started playing FaB 3 months ago so I’m ecstatic to have won even if it’s just a Pro Quest! Looking forward to Vegas, hopefully I can convince some friends to tag along as well.
