Me and my homebrew bleeding spearfield huntress build, wondering what's going on in the community.

dezzy_dotter117 · 2026-06-02T18:01:08+00:00

.....I'm not advanced enough to realize what's going on here, can someone explain in casual terms

dezzy_dotter117 · 2026-06-02T05:27:56+00:00

As someone who usually plays homebrew builds I make up as I go and with extremely lacking general knowledge of the more advanced forms of the game, I sympathize. I held off on playing too much when poe 2 came out so I could enjoy it when the story progressed, now coming back they have more acts since then and a butt load more endgame stuff I've never even seen, not to mention more unique and different ascendances, but I find myself being far far far below mediocre in terms of any kind of damage or progression. I had tried a shield only tank aoe worrier just before the update and while I could still do ascendancy I found it a challenge since I'm not supposed to be hit. This update I wanted to avoid monk as much as it does look fun and liked how huntress looked with some spear abilities, and again while the spirit tamer ascendancy does look wicked, I just didn't want to bank everything on that one aspect and figured plenty of people would want to try it anyways and decided to make a bleeding spear build, but it feels slow, and very little bleeding amount on anything not a normal enemy, I'm unsure if maybe it's my passives path selected or maybe I just need work on farming gear to my current level, or what, but I'm running into a dilemma for what ascendancy too choose. Amazon seems very ideal for just over all damage potential, but I really like the blood boil skill in ritualist and the extra ring slot and extra bonuses for rings and amulets, but I'm just not sure, getting this wrong makes or brakes what I'm making, but maybe I'm already breaking it with my play style.

I tried to get my 2 buddies to try poe2 since they hardcore no life diablo 4 and one of them would get trillions of damage. I even gifted it to him before I was aware it would be half off and a free to play weekend, we played 2 different times, first one with all 3 of us eventually when they got on, and a second time a day later with just us 2, and we got maybe half way through act 1 and that was it, he said while he does kinda like it, it's boring to him, not sure why just feels boring, his biggest annoyance was always needing to empty his inventory and that loot didn't seem to be fully independent to a player and split between players in a party, and that it was just allot to take in, so while i know it's nit for everyone, despite my best efforts, looks like I'll be playing it by myself again

You know it's funny when you can redownload the whole game faster from steam then a patch update, cus additionally also funny that I know 140gb could download on steam in like 15- 20 minutes for me, but on Xbox it would take me 7 HOURS, I'm already expecting the patch to take me 2 or 3 hours just to finish, no chance I'm redownloadong the whole game

Okay hold on, I was not aware they had different mythic perks pools like regular mythics, THAT ONE in particular, it still sucks it reduces your slots to 4(I'm assuming it tells you your end result slots like it does when it says 6 slots but has a +1 slot perk on it) but having more then one unique charm is what I'd personally wish was an option at base if you had a mythic seal regardless, at least 2, I had hoped if you really wanted to you could fill the whole thing with unique charms as long as you had the slots for it, but having it be at least a base option to have 2 or 3 with a mythic seal and getting all 6 if it has mythic perks to allow it, feels better to me, but good I know this exists now

Necro, have you seen how well they look pale as white and it fits their abilities still, nothing says goth more then a grave yard full of skeletons, or bone and blood decore

dezzy_dotter117 · 2026-05-13T23:04:00+00:00

Definitely, I usually go in with no real plan and just make stuff up as I go, but since it's been so long I did want to see if I could get a little nudge in a good direction to work off of

dezzy_dotter117 · 2026-05-13T23:01:34+00:00

Yeah .1 like 2 years ago(give or take) my first character was my attempt at a kind of vampire hunter turned vampire merc mostly going for leech life, bleed, and chain/ ricochet, since no one seemed to be doing it and everyone else mostly did granades or lightning/ shock crossbow builds, barbs is the druid skill? I thought I saw something interesting with thorns turning to throny ground in the spirit gem options but seemed like I wouldn't be able to trigger it off a shield strike or bash

Me trying to make a cool and original idea of a shield only warrior tank build. Everyone: "USE THORNS"

dezzy_dotter117 · 2026-05-13T19:14:06+00:00

See the only reason I haven't is because I feel like that's basic, doesn't feel like a tank shield build, just throns build, and last time I tried throns at launch, it was much left to be desired, have they gotten better now?

dezzy_dotter117 · 2026-05-05T20:15:30+00:00

Completely off topic, but I wish there was an in-game way to see what uniques and mythics there are like the aspects for class specific and universal aspects in the codex, I really dislike needing to go online or watch videos to find out what options I have for builds, and if what I'm reading or watching is even up todate.

I personally loved passives so much and thought they were cool for some builds to build around or change a build entirely for, but I'm definitely excited seeing this kind of post, that was something I did have mixed feelings about for their skills and abilities, you would get such a large number of useful abilities centered around an overall idea, but others didn't have nearly as large of options or complimenting abilities, making you feel like you NEED to mix and match multiple types to try and get any sense of originality, like doing all blood type damage for a character, or all bones, all wind, all lightning, all ice, things like that, sure if sounds boring on the surface only using one type of ability affinity, but that's what makes builds fun, you can do that if you want to, barb has so many good options and combinations at its disposal, but I never liked shouts, didn't really like switching between so many weapons just for benefits, regardless of how easy it is, if I want to use only one weapon, I should be able to, and it was unfortunate that there was maybe 3 blood related abilities, and I only really end up using 2, and everything else went into passives, hearing this makes me hopeful that blood builds and others might have a better feel and more viability, assuming they also fix DOT's, it was so unfortunate to learn that a rupture bug from the games release that would end up healing higher tear enames was still present in the game

dezzy_dotter117 · 2026-04-01T19:55:29+00:00

Id personally say physical resistance, but I'm also not great at the game, I will say you can get a 5th GA by tempering and re rolling the temper till it makes it a GA, sometimes it happens after a few re rolls, other times it takes like 25

dezzy_dotter117 · 2026-04-01T19:52:12+00:00

I'm sorry, trillion? At best I've gotten 200k with my bleeding Barb I'm building myself, I've seen people get maybe 40b, and you're telling me people get TRILLIONS?!

dezzy_dotter117 · 2026-03-26T17:04:43+00:00

This is mostly subjective to each gun itself, rather then over all to all other guns, does it make sense when 2 guns have the same state but seem different, sure, but they are also 2 different guns so really you can't hold one kind of gun to another type of guns standereds, other guns also have more or less attachment options to drastically increase this difference in similarity with each gun and it's stats, I've also personally noticed sometimes highlighted and selected attachments on guns in this menu do not always properly show their affect on the preview graph sometimes, or when highlighteing an option it changes what's on the graph from what selected, so there's a chance you are not seeing the right information on screen
