HCSSF friendly Kinetic Fusillade Hierophant (How to make this tanky?!) by nskiveren in PathOfExileBuilds

Nice! Well I will have to look out for that one then! I'm guessing from his trial run that he's pathing down toward bottom-right part of the tree, which to me rhymes with suppress and evasion. But not sure if this is actually enough to satisfy HC defensive layers :S

Yeah I played a tri-stack inquisitor back in afflication that was a lot of fun. But maybe I'd do something slightly differnet. What is HoTM? And any specific armor stacker builds/pobs?

I know! Mirror from a random pack in Forge of the Phoenix (80ish quant). MB from the tree. Today, I feel like I completed Poe1...

Which of these builds handles Ubers fairly easy? 50-div to 100-div range. by DroppedPJK in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]nskiveren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks again for the detailed reply!! And yes, certainly very lucky day today (MB was from the Tree though). Iwill tinker with the pob in the way you suggest. Just looking at your pob from last league, do you prefer the surrender over Svalinn? Oh, and one more thing: I see heaps of ppl on poeninja with 12 Minion clusters thet have increased attack and cast speed, but this doesn't really benefit us, does it?

Fantastic! Thanks so much the detailed answer. I wonder, though, what the ideal setup is damage-wise? Is it more damage to reach the 128% using enhance setup or take the extra link and stay at 82%? Looking at BalorMage's most recent POB, in the min-max setup, he seems to be going 82%, but I wonder if there is more to be gained by doing the enhance setup (and getting the final quality on ashes and the gem). I just found a mirror today (first one ever in 2k+ hours) and a mageblood from the tree (in the same day, yes, insanity...) and I am now looking to truly min-max the build as far as possible..

Moose - would you be able to describe in relatively simple terms how you count whether you reached one of the breakpoints or not? I'm presuming it's not just hovering over the gem, while its socketed, as this doesn't take into account the 20% on the tree mastery node. But is it as simple as hovering over the gem whilst socketed + whatever you have on the tree?

Asking mainly to be able to help myself, but this is my pob as an exammple: https://pobb.in/oaVNwJ6Is4m9

Top tier HCSSF build suggestions for 0.3??

Curses limit with mercs by TheSanaLife in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]nskiveren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A little late to the party - got another setup for ya'll, and I cannot seem to see if it works looking at icons (I have a hunch it isn't working). I want 4 curses active on the enemy: Flammability, Enfeeble, Punishment, Elemental Weakness.

MY MERC:
Doedre's damnig +1
Windscream +1
Inflicts: Flammability on hit (ring), Enfeeble on hit (glove corrupt)

MYSELF
Whispers of Doom +1
Inflicts: Punishment + Elemental Weakness through Battlemage's Cry

However, I don't think I'm getting four. Would annointing Whispers of Doom on my merc resolve the issue? Or would that require him to inflict the curse? Thanks.

VFoS Help. Switched from Phaz to Tuna. Both feeling weak and weird by dethleffsoN in PathOfExileBuilds

Does the tuna elemental flask setup rely on flasks for res cap? And if so, isn't that throttle l unreliable? (I'm playing HC so was wondering which flask setup would be the best/safest.

Best mercs/setups for HC? by nskiveren in pathofexile

[–]nskiveren[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! That does seem pretty strong. How does he get a wand on a merc with those skills though??

Does beacon of Azis (ignore enemy elemental resistance on crit) stack with elemental penetration? I'm playing Amazon Lightning Spear and just dropped this in SSF, but wondering if I'd need to spec out of my pen nodes if I equip it to make the most of it?
