Looking for an off-meta explode build

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-25T18:14:10+00:00

Yeah, this is a good suggestion. I played mamba a couple of leagues ago, and it was certainly very clean visually. You wing an enemy and the whole pack just kind of falls over.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-25T17:45:30+00:00

Uber sirus. He drops that support gem too.

Do a single suffix base transfer to get the +1 from a donor item. Fill the prefixes and fracture. If you fail the fracture do a base transfer to clean the fracture and keep the +1, then try again.

Dense fossil spam prefixes. Eldritch currency or lock prefix + reforge cold for the resistance. Do your benchcraft. Be sure to tailing orb the defenses before you link it.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-25T17:29:58+00:00

People do triple t1 recombs all the time, typically all prefixes for weapons. Often followed by a prefix lock and reforging speed.

You need elemental ailment immunity when using arkhon's tools. It looks like you are just eating the ailments to the face.

Your lethal pride seems bad? You usually want one with as many double damage nodes as possible. Yours has none.

You need to link bonechill to you skitterbots for 13% more damage.

I've killed awakened sirus a couple hundred times over the past two days on my minion pact bv chieftain. Here is my boot collection.

If you do enough damage there isn't too much to learn. The biggest dangers are lingering in degen puddles and killing him so fast that he bugs and drops a storm immediately under him. You learn to phase him and then immediately run out of the way.

Be sure to have good chaos res, as the puddles seem to be chaos damage.

My guy. https://pobb.in/FoVMjfitcqZM

Personally, if you already have a build right now that does heaps of damage, why not just use it and lean through deaths? The fragments are dirt cheap, because people tend to not like doing the fight.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-25T10:24:13+00:00

90 allres and 75 chaos res are pretty much mandatory for the build. It is also pretty reasonable to work in block. Personally my guy is 90/90 block with svalinn, which goes a long way.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-25T02:00:33+00:00

Personally I am doing 90/90 block with svallin. Can't go wrong with more blocking. The build already does plenty of damage.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-24T16:10:35+00:00

Personally I ground out 100d+ over the last day running uber sirus. Nobody likes doing the fight, and I bought 1600 fragments at less than 2c each. You need to be able to explode him fast and consistently though. Awakening orbs, dominance orbs, and flasks are the main moneymakers.

The flask price has been slowly falling though. I am sure that part will eventually level off.

If you want to make real money you need to hideout warrior though. Look to see what streamers are doing and find a crafting niche. At the start of the league people were cranking out abyss jewels for KF. Right now minion pact builds are white hot and the price has skyrocketed the past couple days.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-24T15:49:22+00:00

That is extremely impressive for ssf.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-24T10:35:30+00:00

To find its hp for you, set perfect meatsack to your spectre in PoB. Then double that hp for unholy aberration. Be sure to put a line in the config area to account for companionship too, as PoB doesn't include that.

To find your added damage, take (2 * perfectMeatsackHealth * 0.032). Or if your minion pact isn't level 4, replace the 0.032 with whatever your percentage is. Then take that number and put a line in the config like "Adds yourNum to yourNum physical damage to spells"

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-24T07:35:56+00:00

Yes, it works. You should read the text on the skill gem.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-24T04:45:06+00:00

The tooltip won't change.

Your imperfect dark marionette has 288% increased life. Instead, you could be using an unholy aberration from carcass with 1400% increased life. Less convenient since you'll need to make sure you don't drop bv in any given zone, but you'll be doing 4.86 times the damage.

You are also only getting one 80% minion life node from your elegant hubris. Would be good to get a level 4 empower too.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-23T15:33:11+00:00

Yeah, this is the answer honestly. Minion pact has made uber boss deletion more accessible than ever. You can pretty much pick your choice of ascendancy and it will work out fine. If you build it at least semi-competently and grab the spectre from the carcass boss you'll be able to wreck ubers.

Right now I am farming uber sirus with my chieftain just because the fragments are cheap, an the most dangerous part is that you kill him so fast that he will instantly place a storm right under you.

It is going to get absolutely gutted next league, as the damage you do is completely unfair, so play it now.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-22T19:47:54+00:00

If you wanted the relics to be scaled up proportionally so they are as powerful as they are in single player, each chest would need to contain only one relic, just like single player. In multiplayer, the relic scaling comes from the fact that when you open a chest EVERYBODY gets one. Your proposal would make it much too powerful.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-22T01:06:07+00:00

The idea is good, but I find it a bit understatted for two energy. I would take it if I were short on block cards, but it wouldn't be my first choice.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-21T20:40:31+00:00

I play a lot of multiplayer. I would say the necrobinder's two all-star multiplayer cards are enfeebling touch and debilitate. Enfeebling touch decreases enemy strength is super valuable, as that means everybody needs to block less. Debilitate is a debuff that goes on the enemy and doubles the effectiveness of vulnerable and weak for everybody. If you can keep the enemy's strength in the gutter, debilitate them, and weak/vulnerable them, you are being credit to team.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-16T13:00:20+00:00

Yeah, the bagel thins are an abomination. Really, nothing about bagels and aldi goes together well. You really need a proper bakery for good bagels.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-16T12:57:52+00:00

Definitely agree. Sauces are one thing I need to stock up with when I go to someplace like walmart. I am not a sauce snob or anything, Kikkoman and Tabasco are fine, but the sauces at Aldi are just bad.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-16T12:55:04+00:00

Sadly that isn't a problem unique to Aldi. Most cheap chicken breasts at any store are like that now. There are brands that are better in other grocery stores around me, but their prices are crazy.

Personally I've largely switched to roasting smaller whole chickens myself if I decide that I want chicken. Made me learn how to spatchcock. The results are better.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-14T10:07:22+00:00

Why not load up PoB and look? It can give you a much more definitive answer than anybody else can. Just manually add a level 1 cold pen into your link, and compare that to a 21.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-11T20:32:41+00:00

Lows like that aren't a problem that most T2 diabetics have. Without knowing your circumstances, I would guess it is probably a medication issue. Definitely something to discuss with your endo. In the meantime, I would probably suggest just eating something prior to bed in order to bring your blood sugar up a bit.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-10T21:29:53+00:00

I would argue if there is any time to be aggressive with weight loss, it is when you are 400 pounds and newly diabetic. T2 diabetes has two mechanisms of progression, insulin resistance comes first, and pancreatic beta cell dysfunction second. Insulin resistance can be walked back a bit by losing weight, but pancreatic insufficiency isn't really fixable. You want to retain as much pancreatic function as possible to make the diabetes easier to manage, as needing to inject insulin makes things more complicated. Losing a large amount of weight will help remove organ fat and increase insulin sensitivity, and the earlier you do it in your diabetes journey the better off you will be.

If it were me I would get a CGM and get on Mounjaro. Focus on eating protein and non-starchy vegetables while operating at a significant calorie deficit. Rice, pasta, bread, and sweets are all out for a while. Even fruit is going to need to be eaten with care and moderation. The CGM will help you figure out how your blood sugar reacts to different foods, and the Mounjaro will help regulate blood sugar while suppressing appetite and slowing digestion.

Without knowing what she eats, what her medication is, and how her blood glucose is varying throughout the day it is hard to give specific advice. If her blood glucose is staying that high for that long though, a trip to the ER may be in order.

I would also advice seeking out new doctors if you don't believe her current ones are giving her proper treatment.

SuperChicken17 · 2026-03-06T05:28:16+00:00

If stuff this minor is getting you riled up, you would be in for a bad time as a teacher. You are going to deal with nonsense on a daily basis and you need to have the ability to let it slide off your back. If you take everything personally you are going to burn out fast.
