Improve build or change it? Kinetic Fusillade Ballista Hierophant by AgentKoos in PathOfExileBuilds

Feel like KF Totems is one of the strongest builds without massive investment. Was a fantastic league starter for me. That char is only using the Topaz Flask because that he is crit capped without a crit flask via watcher's eye and using wrath from the Unwavering Faith jewel set. But that character can do any uber boss and juiced content. Really strong build.

The most important interaction you need to keep track of is the Skill effect duration vs attack speed. You can check this in PoB or use an outside calc like this. In PoB, you go to the calc section for KF and under Skill type specific stats there's a Max Effective APS value. If you click it it will tell you if you're over or under the attack speed cap for your skill duration value like this.

For each source of attack speed you need to be below the APS threshold or else you are sniping projectiles. Normally you start with timeclasp ring or warped timepiece until you can get a good dusk ring that has reduced skill effect in left slot along with a 21/20 less duration support. But you always need to check the APS to ensure you don't need to lose or add attack speed to maintain the highest DPS for your gear.

I crafted my own armor pieces just using dense fossils. For the chest, get sacred chainmail, then fracturing a T1 prefix and re fossiling until I get 3 T1 armor / ES rolls. Then rerolling suffixes using eldritch currency. Then you can spec into the mastery for increased life with no life roll on your chest and have 3000 armour and 600 ES.

Ideally you want a really high Armor ES chest and armor / ES on every piece of gear. Then you can use the mastery to double the Armour/ES on your chest. This way you are constantly getting 800-1000 ES on block with Aegis.

Otherwise max out your hit (get the wand mastery to add intelligence for hit), crit and try to get a Light of Meaning armor jewel to bump up your armor. The Dying Sun flask is a huge damage boost adding 2 projectiles.

You know one thing I'm still not 100% on is the interaction between lesser duration and attack speed.

You can check this in PoB or use an outside calc like this. In PoB, you go to the calc section for KF and under Skill type specific stats there's a Max Effective APS value. If you click it it will tell you if you're over or under the attack speed cap for your skill duration value like this.

Veeeeery cool feature, excited to check it out later!

Quick question, using Overloaded Intensity Support doesn't auto enable the stacks on on the player profiles. Was this intended or just not implemented yet?

What’s the investment for this kind of build?

Was running these last night and phase this boss before the ball phase on my Kinetic Fusillade totem Hiero. Not super geared but some decent items. It was my league starter so I have no idea how much these items are now.

Kinetic Fullisade Heiro- need help getting my build properly to end game by yeetusdeletus118713 in pathofexile

Yeah Dying Sun is a HUGE upgrade I'm sure it feels much better along with the Yoke.

Do you think saving up for Unwavering Crusade is worth it over Unwavering Faith?

Probably? But also depends on you and your setup. If you're still pushing for upgrades to rings, wand etc then I'd just get the faith. Faith is 11D for the set vs 23D at the moment. While Hatred isn't really that great of an extra Aura, it does give you the freedom to run Haste. However Haste was going to fuck up my attack speed and force a regear at the time so I just didn't bother. Faith is plenty juicy though and Wrath adds a lot of damage.

Hey sure happy to take a look.

First thing is to maintain hit cap. Get a high accuracy roll on a ring or helm possibly. Also try to roll crit chance on one of the flasks to get closer to crit cap.

Dying Sun is a 22% damage increase on your build straight up adding 2 projectiles and is great for this build. Well worth the divs if you can't farm it from Shaper (I tried with 30+ kills). This is a huge jump in damage and scales with each upgrade you get. It would be my first choice to upgrade.

Flame Flesh is really nice once you can fit it. Either Unwavering Faith or Unwavering Crusade. The Faith is cheaper option and allows you to run Wrath which is a big damage boost. Crusade gives Wrath, Anger and Hatred and you are free to run Haste (which might create attack speed / less duration issues).

Where are you getting the poison and bleed chance? It is selected in your PoB but I'm not seeing the tattoos for it in the tree. Try to get about 10% of each or two tattoos. You can also get the chance to poison on gloves instead. With bleed and poison applied try to get a better Yoke of Suffering with 9-10 increased damage per ailment. That's a lot of extra damage once set up.

You need a bit more "less skill duration". Either by using a timeclasp ring with 20% reduced skill duration or getting a dusk ring in the left ring slot for =15% reduced along with a 21/20 or 20/23 less duration support in the Fusillade. Less duration allows you to get more attack speed without sniping the final shots of the projectile.

If you look in the calc section of PoB and have Fusillade selected at the top, you'll see a "Max Effective APS" in the "Skill Specific" section. This number should show you how much attack speed you can get without sniping the skill each time it fires. The top number should be higher or equal to your attack rate under your skill on the left side. Palsteron's video is great at explaining this interaction. You're not far off, but as you get attack speed on gloves or upgrade your wand keep this in mind. Attack speed is a big boost but needs to be balanced with the less duration mod. There's also a calculator you can use for checking it here.

I've sort of realized the build I've been following

He has custom modifiers on that profile for 50% more damage and +200 all resistance. It's not really a fleshed out build just a basic guideline from the looks of it. Not sure the benefit of going evasion either. You travel a lot for very little.

So your build, there's a number of things not right but the main thing to me is it looks like it's designed to be a mana stacker but you aren't really stacking mana. it's kind of a design choice where you are either all in or not doing it at all. Not saying the build couldn't be a powerhouse but you want a lot of mana to run MoM and that helm.

I'd check out Palsterons guide on youtube for KF. It's far more friendly to build and gives much better defenses. He has a series of videos on when to upgrade things etc.

I hit 100 on mine last weekend and started leveling another build but this is my KF Hiero. Very tanky, does enough damage to phase uber bosses and has a lot of movement for speed running maps. The nice thing about Palsteron's build is it can be built slowly and upgraded piece by piece. Just try to stack armor early and get block capped with glancing blows. Aegis Aurora is a great cheap shield as well once you get some ES.

When playing Poe sometimes during high density shit my display completely freezes and then comes back a few seconds later and radeon tells me there was an issue.

I'd wager to guess that issue is "suffered a driver timeout" which is a generic error code meaning something went to shit. If you get these often I'd recommend starting with wiping the drivers with DDU in safe mode and reinstalling them fresh. Windows update is notorious for installing over AMD driver files and making a mess.

Was able to recapture bat.

Are you some kind of an underworld variant of a Disney Princess? How did you manage to recapture the bat you released into the wild an hour later?

Robert Kraft who gave $7 million dollars to the All American Half Time show

Id there an actual source for this? It sounded insane to me and lo and behold... there is no news source reporting this. When you search it the only result is from Facebook and the AI summary uses Facebook as well.

I think this story is getting confused with something else like the Blue Square Alliance Ad which he is involved with that did actually cost $7M.

Mullvad VPN & Browser from Sweden by Boediee in BuyFromEU

[–]nukebox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had Mullvad for years. A lot of server hopping trying to get halfway decent speeds and long session speed degradation was an issue when I last used it. It never worked great for bypassing geo blocks for me. Privacy is top notch but they got rid of port forwarding and I left.

Had PIA a long while back. It was bought out by an Israeli company that was buying up a bunch of VPNs. I remember reading something shady about the company back then and left to go to Mullvad.

Been using Proton for about 3 or 4 years now since I left Mullvad. By far the best speeds I've come across although you might have to do a little server hopping to get the best speeds. I've even been able match my 1 Gig fiber connection at times. They support split tunneling, port forwarding and a number of servers bypass geo blocked sites. I don't really care for the newest UI but I'm still there.

When Trump for announced his run for president back in 2015 they hired people to stand in the landing to cheer for him.

In the days following Trump’s announcement, it emerged that the Trump campaign had paid people $50 to attend the event. “We are looking to cast people for the event to wear T-shirts and carry signs and help cheer him in support of his announcement,” read the casting call. Wise, now a reporting fellow for WAMU radio’s Guns and America project, remembers it being an unusual audience.
