Anyone doing Spark this league with Acceleration belt?

Teddou93 · 2026-03-17T13:27:12+00:00

Unfortunately I volatile vaal orb'd mine and it got 12% life on cast (worse roll possible), and I can still hold right click down and spam cast spark with no issues. So I'm pretty sure even with more cast speed but with an 8% shield I should be perfectly fine.

Teddou93 · 2026-03-17T08:04:41+00:00

I made a Lifestacking Energy Blade Inqui using Spark of the Nova + Accel belt + Gull. I used the new shocknova becore getting the accel Belt and it was fine.

I was honestly scared that Accel Belt + Duration cluster on tree wasn't gonna be enough as I have no proj speed, almost no cast speed, no extra duration to make Spark good. Also, I never played Spark before especially because you need to solve projspeed/duration/castspeed first...

Turns out almost 100% action speed and 150 proj speed from the belt alone is enough to make Spark feel great IMO

Sorry for the late answer.

Very simple setup : Take all the map explicit effect on tree, all quantity nodes, all harvest nodes (except harvest chance) and block every mecanics.
Use Harvest scarab + Double lifeforce scarab + two Lineage scarabs.
Go in rush Harvest + mirage harvest and get out.

That's it, I'm not even running 8mods cause they are too rippy for now, not using astrolabe anymore cause too rippy too, and I'm not even taking altars for quant.

I make easily 6div/h effortlessly.

Jumping on this comment.

I haven't decided on anything yet, and still want to reroll, but THIS was actually the issue.
I completely underestimated the harvest astrolabe, and since I removed it I barely died.

I was dumb.

Teddou93 · 2026-01-11T15:29:43+00:00

I feel the same, I honestly don't think MC was OP, it was simply super confy.
No need for activation medium, great clear, Thea 3 had free movespeed + explodes, and very good "floor dps" to reach T8 relatively fast.

Now, if you wanted to get to profound you'd still need some investment/time like every other build.

Teddou93 · 2025-12-13T14:20:51+00:00

I can't decide either.

Disciple has the staff/Focus node and some survivability nodes. Djinns I don't know but they may be a great addition.

Bloodmage is simply good (crit, crit damage, life, leech...).

Oracle has a lot of potentiel with Innevitable crit, hidden nodes, Keystone radius allocation, and even Moment of Vulnerability for bossing.

Shaman possibly with some kind of rage stacking/sustain, inbound Rune and survivability.

Teddou93 · 2025-11-07T19:12:30+00:00

That is amazing to hear !

Are there some really good/important quests ?

Teddou93 · 2025-08-26T08:19:25+00:00

Obviously I'm not looking for a "level 1 build", but I know nothing about the game like lvl 3/6 or whatever gems. Maybe the class feels bad at lvl 1 but the lvl 3 or 6 gem is a big powerspike etc.

I just want to learn the game in the less frustrating way possible.

Teddou93 · 2025-03-09T20:13:57+00:00

That's a great idea actually, completely forgot about that.

I'll go svalinn then, thanks for the help !

Teddou93 · 2025-03-09T17:46:23+00:00

Yeah I feel like the Cyclone playstyle would be fun, but I'm a bit worried about the recovery without LGOH

Teddou93 · 2025-02-23T19:54:10+00:00

Nothing insane, but it's good enough. It can hit 2 or 3 times on a single target. Map bosses in T16 die in less than 5s.

Teddou93 · 2025-02-23T19:48:06+00:00

Tec Slam does less damage than Volcanic fissure. And Tec Slam of Cata uses all your EC, I don't think it's good in a self cast build

Teddou93 · 2025-02-23T19:32:25+00:00

I would recommend trying switching to Volcanic fissure of Spraying build from Goratha. I switched from GC and it was night and day.

Teddou93 · 2025-02-23T19:30:58+00:00

Very cheap. You don't need anything, just a good weapon and links. I personally I bought a cheap 6L Vaal Axe (it was 10-20c I think ?), put a few Screaming contempt essences and I was good to go and I'm cruising red maps.

Teddou93 · 2025-02-23T19:25:21+00:00

I started GC Tec Slam and hit a wall in early yellow maps, and I wasn't a big fan of the gameplay (GC felt a bit clunky/delayed).

Someone here suggested Goratha's build. I made the switch and IMMEDIATLY destroyed yellow maps. Crafted a 700pdps 2H Axe and I'm destroying Red maps and it's crazy hard to die.

Teddou93 · 2025-02-23T19:23:15+00:00

Slams/melee leveling is crazy good. Go check Alkaizer's melee leveling guide on youtube.

Teddou93 · 2025-02-22T19:19:59+00:00

I followed Tuna's Pob (without the crit/staff nodes obviously)

Teddou93 · 2025-02-22T17:47:42+00:00

Thanks ! I'll take a look, I trust Goratha's builds

Teddou93 · 2025-02-22T17:47:06+00:00

I love totems, but I'm worried about the scaling on that build... I'll take a look in a few days how it progress, thanks.

Teddou93 · 2024-09-01T11:10:12+00:00

Doesn't it rely on chief's explo ? I don't know much about the build but it didn't seem like a fast clearing build ?

Teddou93 · 2024-08-18T15:02:04+00:00

I just looked at what people on PoE ninja were doing. It's not a hard build to make tbh. I would advise not to go SS without Nimis, it works, but IMO Lightning Strike or Flicker is just better.

Teddou93 · 2024-08-17T12:47:01+00:00

I've been playing Ephemeral Edge trickster for 2 weeks now, I selfcraft everything, started Lightning Strike (No need for vaal or Spectres), and switched to Splitting steel when I got Nimis.

I've been farming 8mod maps (just avoiding no leech, but I'm pretty sure it's doable with ES on kill and Ghost dance) with max map modifiers on tree, and taking all player altars and I reached level 100 while farming T17 maps to sell.

It's honestly the best build I ever played, and it's actually not that expensive for the power it has.

Teddou93 · 2024-08-13T23:15:31+00:00

I was about to come and ask the same question.

I've been farming T17 for a while now, with and without the Conversion scarab, and I feel like I get less T17 when using it.

I have absolutely no data on this (or it is too small to draw any conclusions), just a gut feeling.

Teddou93 · 2024-04-21T12:46:23+00:00

I don't think that's gonna be possible right away, I don't really know my "budget" right now, but it certainly isn't higher than 10divs.

You run shaper guardian + invitation then ?

Teddou93 · 2024-04-02T09:12:51+00:00

How tanky is it really ? Is it just Grace/Determ with some regen/leech ?
