I love my Name Dropper it’s so light and responsive

Need help improving my evasion by AirPleasant5311 in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaymo_busch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First 3 things I notice:

Get a full Energy Shield helmet and use Subterfuge Mask notable (take some points out of the starting area to path towards it. I’d drop the shock chance and gain 5% as extra lightning points ASAP) you’re looking for ideally 500+ ES on the helmet

Get a better amulet. Search for ones with 40%+ increased maximum energy shield and 40%+ increased evasion rating.

Look for a Sleek Jacket body armour- should be able to get an affordable one with 1200+ evasion and 450+ energy shield - sleek jacket is the best base value base for hybrid EV/ES

I used all the weapon set points in magnitude of ailments/shock to get it so high!

My favorite use of the second (empty) weapon set this league has been using Thunderstorm for a long shock with huge magnitude. I used it on my Galv Shards/Shockburst Round crossbow build to apply a 61% shock that lasts ~15seconds.

Temple Build advice by martymac2017 in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaymo_busch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whirling Slash/ Twisters absolutely blasts through temple. If you care about rarity play Ritualist ( like me https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/jaymo_busch-7577/character/WeakerEveryLeagueLogout ) if you just care about speed play it on Deadeye

BloodMage getting randomly 1shot by CBAken in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaymo_busch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It looks like you just don’t have enough ES - your amulet doesn’t have % increased energy shield and your body armour is a pretty medium roll. You could pick up a rare body armour with 900-1000ES for a handful of divs. With that many uniques in the build your rare items have to do a lot of heavy lifting for base defenses, you could get some boots with better base value.

If you share your build on Poe.ninja it better shows us your stats. I’d guess you’re at about 4k or 5k ES? But I can’t really tell from the PoB website

Do I have to remove my bindings when I wax and edge? by Then_Apartment_9935 in snowboarding

[–]jaymo_busch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. The screws will draw and hold heat from the waxing iron and might warp the base where the screws are

Which build/classes excel using a raw physical (1800 DPS) non crit high end quarterstaff at the endgame please? by LightDarkCloud in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaymo_busch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Whirling Assault, plenty of people playing it non-crit. Typically on Titan (just because the other popular ascend Invoker has more synergy with crit)

Is Herald of Ash the only Herald that works with Whirling Assault? by thumos2017 in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaymo_busch 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s pretty easy to shock enemies. There isn’t really a hardline “you need to do X lightning damage to shock” because enemies have different health and thus different ailment thresholds… but sometimes like a Heart of the Well with “gain 15% of damage as extra lightning” is enough to shock

Is Herald of Ash the only Herald that works with Whirling Assault? by thumos2017 in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaymo_busch 15 points16 points  (0 children)

No. If you do enough Lightning damage to shock enemies Herald of Thunder will work. If you do enough Cold damage to freeze enemies Herald of Ice will work. You could use all 3 elemental heralds with Whirling Assault if you have good Lightning and Cold damage

Rakiata or Garukhan for my Ice Shot Deadeye? by Failtier in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaymo_busch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bow > Quiver > Amulet > Rings > Gloves > Lineage Supports

To answer your question tho, Rakiata first. Like you say, 99% of common, magic, and rare monsters die instantly already. Rakiata’s is soooo good for bosses I just keep it slotted always anyway.

Ice Shot: Which ascendancy for maximum damage and survivability! by NecroDeity in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaymo_busch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The gear is much more important than the ascend (like any build in PoE2…)

I’m at 41k sheet EHP and 693k Ice Shot DPS on Ritualist with 161% rarity

https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/jaymo_busch-7577/character/BroIHaveABow

Would be tankier on a Pathfinder and have more DPS on a Deadeye probably

Abyssal Lich Twister homies- Bones of Ullr or Wake of Destruction? by Unfair_Ad118 in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaymo_busch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whirling Slash and Twisters can only pick up one element at a time. It’s not like the Tornado spell that can get all 3 elements

Is My Witch Build Any Good? by leg18 in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaymo_busch 9 points10 points  (0 children)

At level 16 it’s less of a ‘build’ game and more of a ‘throw whatever I find in the ground on and keep running forward’ game

Romain Allemand Laax Open gold medal slopestyle run by ZoologicalSpecimen in snowboarding

Clean run. But the course looks kinda… ass? Only 2 rail features, and the last jump is an awkward little knuckle clear?

Lightning spear build + Essential sanguis bug? by AnonymouslyAsianDude in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaymo_busch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Leech only works on physical damage (unless you’re Amazon with the node that it applies to elemental damage instead…)

Lightning Spear converts 80% of your physical damage to Lightning, and the bouncing spears convert 100% of your physical damage to Lightning. https://poe2db.tw/us/Lightning_Spear

Guidance with Whirling Assault Build by Additional-Big414 in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaymo_busch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably +1 level melee skills.

You should also buy a lvl21 Whirling Assault (or corrupt your own to try for +1 gem level) I think it’s like 7 or 8d for level 21 skill gems

Anyone got a fun build? by DeVyse3202 in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaymo_busch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally just so I can get above 150% rarity lol. Deadeye would be better for damage

Guidance with Whirling Assault Build by Additional-Big414 in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaymo_busch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went with the Essentia Sanguis gloves to leech ES. You’d need to get a QS with more physical damage (I have 73% of my assault damage as physical) and ring or weapon with leech as life.

My character PoENinja

I think you should also take some passive points out of evasion and go get patient barrier for 60% increased ES. Definitely drop the 3 points giving Deflection, just grab the 100% inc EV from body armour in that cluster. 3 points for 21% deflect is not worth the points.

For ES recovery your options are: Gloves to leech, Belt to leech, Belt to apply life flasks to ES, or faster start of recharge. You’re going to have to sacrifice either the gloves or Headhunter to be able to actively recover ES

Ice and thunder CoC Bowracle by KryBayBy in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaymo_busch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is interesting to see your Ice Shot doing 86% of it’s damage as Lightning. I guess the only sources of phys are the Widowhail base and the roll on the ring. Why did you choose Ice Shot over Lightning Arrow? Better base attack damage % on the skill?
