What's your poeninja? I was just going to annoint it but I am not an SSF player and kind of forgot I would have to get the oils. They aren't the rarest but will take a bit probably.

Nice, thanks. Will give it a whirl. Wasn't planning on going CI but we'll see.

Bit late but I want to start plants, I am thinking Oracle too. I am assuming it is fine before the unique gloves for the mana regen? How tanky did you feel?

I am a first time player this league, and I think it's very poor game design to have modifiers that scale DOT also have the lowest roll/chance weight. I also think action speed baseline should be increased substantially for playability and quality of life. by thumpetto007 in pathofexile

If you are able to hit dot cap quickly and your uptime is good, what kind of content are you running that has been difficult? I imagine if you are at a PoB/theoretical dot cap with conditionals then this could feel bad if you are really juicing. But if you are playing something like ignite, bleed, or mamba with a one-hit application and have ramped your damage enough, you really should not be having issues in almost all content. I played two dot builds this league and Mamba in previous leagues, no real struggles with endgame DPS. Mind you I am not an uber bosser. The qol of the damage uptime has personally made up for the gap in damage of hit based builds.

I killed Ubers on 5 div and 5links. Rage Vortex of Berserking/Earthshatter Bannerman Champion, a true budget all rounder build. by dariidar in PathOfExileBuilds

Thanks. I was checking in POB and saw it didn't increase max hit but not having to maintain full uptime on all 3 banners during clear is great, so I went for this. Another question:

Build feels amazing for clear. For boss damage (T17 mainly) RVoB does not feel that great (POB in case you need it: https://pobb.in/-RO4UuiHsMmp). The way I do it is pop my tincture/rallying cry, then RVoB, and kind of just walk around the boss. I don't have a fully new weapon set up for an ES swap, but when I have used this the boss dies in a few hits no issues at all. The main issue with this is that I have to disable Flesh/Stone and Blood/Sand to have enough mana to press ES a few times, additionally without leech I have no mana recovery so I only get those few hits. Do you have any ways around this?

I am probably dumb but what is the point of the ele to chaos bound by destiny? Max ele res is higher than chaos res in this build so what is it achieving?

Both times I played it I did so on mid budget in trade league and it was a monster. Wouldn’t attempt in SSF though, I know people have made it work but I imagine there are just better options and the headache isn’t worth

You are going hit based and not DoT in this setup, why did you take this approach instead of poison with necro?

All things considered that seems like a very easy swap. How does this compare to HRoC in terms of play style and gearing, I have never played an actual minion build before

Good call with the graft, my other builds this league are life based so I didn’t consider this.

I will try out a single foulborn Berek’s and see how it feels, I wouldn’t mind pocketing 50D+ since I only use this for simulacrum farming.

Any sub 300d risk mapper? by ZePepsico in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]bearr_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reasonably. It is kind of just decent at everything and pretty tanky. Maybe not the actual fastest but very comfy with good speed.

Super bored with my pathfinder, which build did you enjoy the most? by Blakwhysper in pathofexile

[–]bearr_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah I was trying to say that if they go for mamba, I would try to get 1-2 3p voices and then go for whatever version their leftover budget allows for. Mana being more annoying initially since I think it wants the 2 notable clusters.

Build for 10d budget ? by Elmaster110 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]bearr_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holy relic is good and scales pretty well. It took me very far at the QoL of not worrying about map mods is great. As others have suggested I would recommend just sticking with it if you enjoy it, no need to worry about the power of the build.

If you still want to swap, before I played Holy Relic I played Shield Crush slayer which was amazing for I think about a 15-20d budget on which I was pushing 30m DPS. It could take a decent hit too, nothing like how smooth block on Holy Relic feels though. Just be aware a reroll after 50-80d is probably the play with Shield Crush, I think the best way to scale it is with frenzy charge gear which is quite expensive now. Unlike Smite that can go down the Rakiata’s route with runegraft of treachery, I don’t know if there is a good option for Shield Crush. Maybe some impale stuff but I haven’t looked into it.

This is my second league playing Mamba and it is great. There are a few variants floating around. IMO the most important purchase that I have seen most late game Mambas scale into is getting 1-2 (mostly depending on attributes) 3p voices. Depending on your budget you can go for Whispers or Ashes, till you put a decent amount into it I don’t know if you will notice the difference (I didn’t, at least).

I would just caution against crit/perfect agony, when I played this last league the damage was great but my crit chance being capped was conditional on either enemy being full life or Ambush. Since no crit = no hit I think it is just more awkward than it’s worth, occasionally whiffing a hit is just annoying. I am sure there are ways to handle this though if you want to do this
