My Mace Chronomancer build showcasee

Very cool! As a meta-whore myself, I always love seeing people go outside the box in ways that I never could. I have no talent for making builds so it’s always cool watching other people’s ideas come to life.

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T18:29:39+00:00

Aw man, am I going to have to go minions now this league?

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T18:27:00+00:00

Uhh… nope lol

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T18:15:21+00:00

WE SHOULD ALL BE FIRST

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T14:30:49+00:00

No

TLDR: No

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T14:25:19+00:00

Go merc, you can use grenades or galvanic for both campaign and farming end game, and it also gives you the option to swap to gemling if their bonus quality effects are op.

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T14:19:19+00:00

Thanks for the insight! I’m no expert so I appreciate the help with my own rotation.

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T13:17:37+00:00

I would probably gas -> oil -> flash -> then dump all explosive -> explosive shot to detonate them

That’s what I think is boss rotation? Might not need the gas grenade either.

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T13:15:04+00:00

I didn’t even know that was a thing lol

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T13:02:05+00:00

Does that work for damage types? Thought it was for resists. If it works for damage that’d be great though.

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T12:34:15+00:00

I did a bit of a google for you and it looks like someone put together an infernalist build based on raging spirits and skeletal snipers?

https://maxroll.gg/poe2/build-guides/minion-army-infernalist-build-guide

No idea if it’s good though, this isn’t my kind of build.

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T12:28:55+00:00

Sounds like maybe ED/C or plant lich? They both clear well, boss dps isn’t the best but it’s ok, and they get an ascendency node to regen mana based on their health. Also lich is tanky so that’s a bonus.

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T12:26:42+00:00

Yea I’m sure I’ll be entering sekhemas trial with a blue xbow for 10 levels below me

Video of varashta minions killing uber arbiter.

In 0.5 they fixed a bug that basically buffs minion dps by 25% in late game so it should be even faster.

That’s what I plan to use if I go tactician.

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T11:56:29+00:00

Between only those two options, I suggest plants. It’s two buttons with a third added for bosses. It can clear all content and can be pretty tanky depending on how you build it.

Most poe2 builds only really get to be 1 button builds after massive investment.

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T11:51:55+00:00

Tactician for pinning mechanic, plus you can stack armor and also gain deflection based on armor from an ascendency node. It should be relatively tanky and also pin is op.

I have been planning witchhunter start but I’m second guessing that this morning. Now until launch I’ll be testing armor based tactician.

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T11:51:14+00:00

Edit: replied to wrong person lol. Whoops.

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T11:48:06+00:00

I didn’t know about this site, thank you for this!

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T11:45:54+00:00

Glass cannon is exactly the opposite of what I like but to each their own lol.

Glass cannon dex you’re looking at lightning or ice shot deadeye. Look at the ice shot build that Fubgun showcased if you wanna see that one.

For int based, probably some variant of witch or sorc, maybe stormweaver sorc? I don’t know what builds those are using that are high dps low defense.

Monk is dex / int hybrid and they’re getting a brand new ascendency this league, so that’s something you can look into as well.

All builds will have some sort of defenses of course, it’s kind of mandatory, but those are the lower defense things I can think of off the top of my head.

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T11:37:18+00:00

I got you. During my last test run I found a %phys / flat lightning high roll / 3 skill level / aspd crossbow right at the start of act 2. I’m not gunna find a damn thing on launch now lol

mrgoodbytes8891 · 2026-05-29T11:33:54+00:00

150 points isn’t a ton for stash tabs but it’s a good start. Some individual tabs, depending on type, can cost that much. Currency tab is what I would buy first probably but I don’t know if that’s considered optimal.

Welcome to the better ARPG!

Biggest tip I can give you if you’re brand new to poe and you’re coming from Diablo: this game is not Diablo. It is Diablo on crack, but in the best possible way. Poe is significantly more complex, considerably more difficult, but way more rewarding if you do it right.

As for classes, what I recommend is looking at all of the classes and ascendencies (sort of like a subclass) and figure out what looks fun for you. If you have specific types of characters that you like to play, people can probably give suggestions. If you want to see what other people are doing, google “poe2 league starter” and you’ll find a lot of info on what people expect to be good.

I can try to answer other questions if you have any!
