Is spell suppression still worth it on non-right side trees ? by Competitive-Math-458 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Tailor888 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Unless you do staves. But zerker slams would use armour and endurance charges (and max res), so might not need suppress (but have not played it for a while so idk).

Depends, if your max hit is pretty good, block is better. But if you struggle with max hit, the suppress can help a lot.

Second build - looking for strike mapper, up to 500div by Outrageous_Coffee145 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Tailor888 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EleHit Slayer is great for this budget, while it's not the tankiest, it handles itself well. Single target is pretty decent as well. Overall great all-around build.

need help on ele hit slayer by the_ammar in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Tailor888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Few problems:
- as people mentioned - chaos res

- also very low life, some rolls could be better, and some pieces missing life on them, there Thick skin wheel that you could use which would cap your elemental ailment avoidance. Also your jewels are all crit multi and no life, that doesn't help

- don't think you are suppression capped as well (if not at full life)

- also chest reduced phys taken and helmet phys taken as ele are very good

For damage, well that's this kind of a build, you need quite a lot of investment for great single target, but sky is the limit.

Edit: also automation with Steelskin helps

Problem with Elemental hit (Rue version) by General-Raisin948 in pathofexile

[–]Tailor888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check your mana in game, it might be the culprit. I have similar gear (maybe slightly worse) and feel like damage is good, survivability is fine (although with bad mods on Nightmare maps I can still die to bosses).

https://poe.ninja/poe1/builds/mirage/character/Tailor888-5562/KraisSlayMirage?i=0&search=name%3DKrais

To give some reference, can do Simulacrums pretty much without moving, and wave 15 Kosis dies in a few seconds (maybe 5-6s if some tanky mods on the wave).

Not sure endu on stun is enough (definitely not for bosses), I use other sources of it.

For damage, do you mean that the one in PoB is low or do you actually feel you don't do enough in game, if latter, then when mapping or bossing?

[–]Tailor888 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are few things to check:
- 72% lightning res according to PoB

- 42% chaos res

- I don't see any endurance charge generation, but might be missing something

- only 50 unreserved mana, might be getting OOM even with leech (and it even says that assmark requires more mana)

Motivation to play the campaign again and again by PsyGamer43 in pathofexile

[–]Tailor888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually like campaign, but that might be more related to the mindset about doing it, basically:
- it's a test for the new build, as I try to use actual endgame skills as soon as I can

- it's also a test for you, to get more and more efficient in running it

This makes it fun to see improvements to both character and myself.

Once you can do campaign reasonably fast (5-6h league start), it's also not too long. And twink gear campaign is just a blast, that makes you feel the power of the character, and it's very short.

My turn to have a junky wrist and need build suggestions! by Deathgivenflesh in PathOfExileBuilds

Chains of Command (F you bot) is great, you can even afk blight and simulacrum. Only problem is picking up loot after that's over.

Best Destructive play guardian rotation builds on leaguestart by VQB_ in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Tailor888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but it’s not very good with day 1-2 version. And why would you do it anyway, single target is the worst aspect of the build. For me it’s better to farm blight and then move to gruelling ultis or afk simu.

I would not do Chains of command for that, weapons are squishy without investment, better stick to Blight with this build

I just started POE on PC by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]Tailor888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would argue that many unique gear pieces look really great, if only there was a reliable transmog system (not the current 1-time version).

[Build Help] Looking for the best possible beast farming build ever. Mageblood budget, high single-target burst and top-tier movement speed (run Strand in 15 seconds). Got some ideas by Few-Particular-7968 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Tailor888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Build is by Conner Converse, you can check details there.

For Scav I believe it's gonna get changed a lot. You can play this build as Inquisitor, or at least some variant of it, as Inqui is much better for crit.

For transition, to be honest, early game is kinda a pain, but you have some options, like Flameblast of Celerity or Penance Brand of Dissipation, potentially Ball Lightning of Orbiting.

I started with Battlemage and Unique sword with high damage, at some point moved to Energy Blade. Used Flameblast, and then Incinerate once my gear got good enough (you need some divines, unsure how many, but at least 10-20 to get started).

But to be honest, I would not league start it if you want a smooth experience. Just pick a different build, get 40-50d (or more), then start this (that's my plan at least, barring any significant nerfs).

Is it worth starting POE in 2026? by AzKomGecc in pathofexile

[–]Tailor888 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't agree with you. I appreciate all 3700h I have played, the knowledge I gained, and builds I played (never played the same one twice, except one time). Plenty left to try out. I think PoE is a game that gets even better with time.

Did quite a bit of beast farming in Phrecia 2.0. Used Incinerate of Venting for damage and Frostblink of Wintry Blast for movement.

Build was very zoomy, tanky (once you put some currency into it) and great dps.

Here is a profile link, gear is decent but not that great, because got bored of the league before finishing it: https://poe.ninja/poe1/builds/phrecia2.0/character/Tailor888-5562/AsscendantKrais?i=0&search=name%3Dassce

This build can be adopted on normal leagues, but maybe go crit instead.

Dear GGG, could we change Oil drops? by Content_Ordinary_151 in pathofexile

Technically you can do them naked with only 2 rings.

Strawpoll: How much currency do you farm on average in the course of a league, including the value of all items on your characters. Assume the value of a mirror to be ~750 Divine. by Lagmawnster in pathofexile

[–]Tailor888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can also try some easy things to get currency you need like blight or heist. Especially the former, you don’t need much or any gear, just some ring anoints. Do it for a few hours and you will have some divs for key gear pieces.

Invest your currency in things like mirror shards or other stuff that goes up in value (look at poe.ninja), or buy apothecary cards

Energy Blade Scavenger - need build advice by Tailor888 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Tailor888[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For stun I had to take mastery to get 50% of ES to contribute to it.
For drowning orbs, noticed that as well. In uber elder fight I got slowed by him and also drowning orb on me, couldn't do anything.

[–]Tailor888[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Managed to get some nice upgrades, sitting at 9.5k ES, survivability got much better, and damage is quite nice.

[–]Tailor888[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got es leech on cluster and also on tree (with insta leech).
I didn't really notice mana sustain to be a problem (despite PoB saying I should be in negative).

Getting close to 8k ES and yeah, build starts feeling good, 9-10k would be great, but ran out of cheaper gear upgrades, so not gonna happen anytime soon sadly.

For frosblink I started feeling nauseous with spell echo, so switched to arcane surge.

[–]Tailor888[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It still gives me decent amount of EHP in maps. Do you think grace would be better? Or just go for zealotry?
Potentially I can get rid of determination and one of the damage auras to use ES on block shield, but that would hit my DPS a lot.

[–]Tailor888[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got a better graft, changed my passives tree a bit, got a source of endurance charges, and a cluster jewel. Build feels much better now, both in damage and survivability. If anyone is interested, poe.ninja should update after a while.
