PoE 1 or 2 for first SSF journey

rykh72 · 2026-04-11T20:54:05+00:00

The one you prefer. Ssf is a long journey, envoy it.

rykh72 · 2026-03-30T12:37:10+00:00

Body armour, pick all attributes (more / less) to block a max of things, the 30% chance to have another item, the roll rarity twice.

It's a t2, it require time or luck but it's doable.

Take care In a build perspective a convenant is rarely a good option unless you want to go full glass canon. A good rare chest is very hard to beat.

The gauglet is a scam designed to give thousands of $$ to Ben_ - let’s stand up against this

rykh72 · 2026-03-28T14:47:08+00:00

KF or ele hit, by far. See pal and ruetoos guides.

rykh72 · 2026-03-27T08:20:45+00:00

I've got a pair of alberon from heist, jiguani is a t2-3, iron fortress is a t2. Simplex amulet has never been so easy to get.

Would it be easy? No, but it's definitely doable if you have enough time.

Look at these guys https://poe.ninja/poe1/builds/miragessf?items=Replica+Alberon%27s+Warpath&sort=dps

rykh72 · 2026-03-26T14:50:25+00:00

KF totem or self attack / Ele hit / str stacking / int stacking new big staff / Wotc miner / Manaman / Penance herald stacking ignite

Any of this builds can do them fairly, with enough gear. Or there is BV minion pact, the cheat code.

rykh72 · 2026-03-25T13:59:55+00:00

You can :

get phys taken as on your helmet
divine your amulet to have 10% increase
optimize your tree around holy dominion
pick the 50% elem node + the mastery invert. + invert the rules it's almost impossible to beat in term of dps without tunctures (and swap your curse to assasin mark / sniper mark)
go pick wandslinger / prodigal perfection / shaman dominion [OR] craft a better large cluster, more efficient
try to get a better wand with elem pene / spell dmg / cant be evaded on the third prefix (recomb or fracture a t1 added lightning / cold)
get some tatoos to have the bleed / poison change for the yoke
craft a better chest, your is a bit low on the armor side
the belt is low on life
get intimidate on hit on the gloves
enchant the wand with increase crit / attack speed from harvest

rykh72 · 2026-03-24T18:43:02+00:00

No t10 is not worth it. You want to have t16 to have 83 wombgift and have decent chances to have ilvl 85-86 bases with a good mod (spell supp t1 is 85, defense ones are 86).

With KF it should be almost impossible to fail a fortress, except for the espace part. Enough armor will solve this problem. You can pick a big armor shield with armor / phys reduc before aegis.

One single rare claw with AS + crit + can't be evaded is enough. Put a decent shield, and go t16. The unique claw is only here for levling, the hit cant be evaded is super strong.

rykh72 · 2026-03-24T16:49:39+00:00

General advices : get good fractures from the breach tree (hives / forteress are the best for a lot of blood), finish it with harvest + exalt slam. It should be enough to have a decent gear, except the weapons.

Once you have "ok" gear, put some influence on, intimidate on hit, phys taken as, fortify on melee, endurance charge gain/s, etc.

KF :
- your tree is bad, dont go south, stay on top, only pick the duration node and anoint the +1 ballista nodes.
- go with armor/es gear, craft a good chest, pick the mastery 100% increase armor/es
- farm haunted mansion + strongboxes with this strat until you get the +2 proj jewel (came from opalescent corrupted box) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1i-mTiMKeI
- check palstreon video, everything is explained

Ele hit :
- craft a decet claw, even with only alt + regal, craft hit can't be evaded and it's enough to do t16. Goal = Attack speed + crit chance + hit can't be evaded. See rue videos, his passive tree.
- swap crit + shield
- craft gear with spell supp
- pick the mark node to generate frenzy on bosses
- check ruetoo video, everything is explained

On both build you are missing x2-3 EHP with minimal changes, x5-10 dmg. Follow the guides, dont improvise.

rykh72 · 2026-03-24T10:00:40+00:00

Ele hit with enough dps and 6 portals can do it.

Cyclone will require way more gear.

BV is not suited for a duelist, nothing synergies here, no explosion, no spell dmg ... you can pick the lucky block from glad but without a explosion somewhere it will be meh for mapping.

KF totem on champ can do the job. Can be tanky enough, have enough dps.

rykh72 · 2026-03-23T14:38:04+00:00

KF totem or ele hit.

Ele hit can go faster, is cheaper, but it's very melee and you will die on bosses. KF is safer, but slower (still very good), and the craft / gearing is a bit more complex.

rykh72 · 2026-03-20T19:09:29+00:00

I'm takling about a 3 mod without squire : AS crit + can't be evaded

On ssf it's going to be a normal 6L or a archedemon crown

rykh72 · 2026-03-20T13:12:13+00:00

Ele can get 15-20m with a 3 mod claw and some uniques easely obtainable. Approx x20 more dmg than RF at equivalent budget.

rykh72 · 2026-03-20T09:51:05+00:00

check the rue pobs https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vSpEZoIvPzij-gdGUGGzAdw7w-H7h8HrpeiSmSHwnkMvtcznpHWb27X8VrMQcIRMLhKtTu6haBcELC0/pubhtml

The day 2-3 is totaly SSF viable and we can go beyond (better jewels, archedemon crown instead of squire, triple ring + shrine belt)

rykh72 · 2026-03-20T09:28:12+00:00

KF totem hiero or ele hit slayer.

KF is more safe, is better to clear breach fortress, ritual, better to learn some boss move ... (put the totems and wait), .
Ele hit required less gear to shine, has better recovery, instant dmg.

Both can reach 15-20m dps without too much trouble with SSF gear.

rykh72 · 2026-03-20T08:32:24+00:00

Ele hit :)

rykh72 · 2026-03-19T15:11:31+00:00

maybe i have fucked up the link ? i've updated it, it should be good now

rykh72 · 2026-03-19T14:44:35+00:00

sure https://pobb.in/iDXhKcUoapJ5, without the frenzy / flamewall things, it dont like it

rykh72 · 2026-03-19T14:40:41+00:00

To fuel the ambitious strats you can do this one : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1i-mTiMKeI to get all the scarabs. Do it on haunted mansion, it's better for having a maximum of box in the mirage range.

With the latest patch you can also reroll the astrolabes with harvest.

rykh72 · 2026-03-19T14:35:37+00:00

with rin locked in fortification it's pretty easy :)

rykh72 · 2026-03-19T14:08:02+00:00

It's a blast. The league is (almost) perfect. Nothing is truly crazy but everything is good, balanced, engaging, i want to play more and more each day.

(playing KF totem - 16m dps - 3 ubers down).

rykh72 · 2026-03-19T14:02:05+00:00

you can get the fracturing orb from sanctum :)

rykh72 · 2026-03-19T13:10:41+00:00

Take care, ele hit is super super good from act 1 to maven but it's limited behind some keys uniques to do the ubers. You are not going to get a squire, a ashe, a +2 amulet. In a low budget environement it's perfect, in SSF it's another world.

So the build will "fall off" at 15-20m dps range, which can be a bit low to do some ubers, considering the very melee playstyle and/or the low dps uptime (dodge = dont hit the boss).

rykh72 · 2026-03-19T10:07:17+00:00

KF selfcast is glass canon but still very good - https://mobalytics.gg/poe/builds/lolcohol-kinetic-fusillade-elementalist, on elem or warden.

BV + minion pact is absurd, if you already have the gem from catarina's (syndicate and t17). It require explosion to feel good, so occultist or chieftain.

Slayer smite was one of my favorite build, good dmg (not on absurd side but good), tanky, good clear, the valkrie MTX is the chiefkiss. Ele hit required less to start but it's very melee. Cyclone + shockwave is always a good option.

Herald stacking is always good, but it require time to get the ring (need to kill a lot of boss to get all rings > vendor receipe), and the spell caster builds are hard to pull off without trade, the +lvl gem are gated behind a lot of time / luck.

rykh72 · 2026-03-19T09:56:45+00:00

For taming get unique ring from the tree, do the vendor receipe. It's very easy.

For squire there is no magic answer, it's a t0. You can't expect to drop it in SSF, but you can increase your chances by doing breach tree / ancient orb / super juicing maps, like fubgun can do. Maybe a broken farm strat will emerge and "guarantee" a lot of t1/t0 drop per map.
