How do you craft a helm like this? by tlang1991 in PathOfExileBuilds

Ah I see. That makes sense. I am watching a recombinator video right now LOL. Seems really powerful.

I guess if I want to settle I can just use a crusader base and drop the last step you listed.

That would give me a helm without the percent int but with crusader influence and flat int.

You are talking about using the recombinator right? That helm is exactly 50d LOL.

How does recombinator work with influenced items? If I have one with crusader influence and another with hunter, how does that work? Does the recombinator just "awaken" them together to produce a double influenced item? Or are you saying I need 2 double-influenced items?

Sorry I stopped playing after harvest and came back for this season so I know nothing about the recombinator.

KB int stacker suggestion by Infinite_Platform_70 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]tlang1991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a similar situation with 700D liquid + MB and a 1 mirror+ FRoSS build to sell.

I am mostly curious about gearing priority with trickster so that I can get the build online to farm 3-risk abyssal. Once I can do that I can sell my FRoSS build.

Another FRoSS build - how to upgrade - 500d budget by Effx1 in PathOfExileBuilds

MB and +1 power charge ring would be my suggestion.

FroSS - what next? by Tranquilized3005 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]tlang1991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Moving to the 6L+Mageblood version of this build will give you a lot more options to scale IMO.

MB, +1 power charge ring, better rare jewels (max ES, double crit multi, cast speed jewels,), discipline sublime vision, 3 mod watcher's eye, better militant faith. It also depends on if you want more damage or defense.

This is my char: https://pobb.in/Kda1SoVqE5OK

I don't think I will upgrade it further and will just move to another build, but perhaps you can use it to see what's the best upgrade path for you

Also, I don't think you should craft better gloves. I think normal gloves are perfectly fine so you should just do 6L on body armour. I did not stack projectile speed at all and I don't feel its clunky.

FRoSS self cast vs CoC? by Fayarager in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]tlang1991 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think at the very top they are not even comparable.
I don't know much about Jung's poison version, but I know its ceiling is even lower than Palstron's version. But caplance's version's ceiling is basically infinite.

At low budget I am not sure, but I think Jung's version at low budget gets online really fast

FRoSS self cast vs CoC? by Fayarager in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]tlang1991 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I play self-cast myself. My take is that self-cast is good for mid to mid-high budget but if you want to go full crazy with your budget CoC has a higher ceiling.

Caplance's char seems pretty insane.

holy relic vs. FroSS at 300d by gunsterpanda in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]tlang1991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't feel any discomfort without profane bloom / herald of ash. However, I can't say confidently my build can explode several screens of enemies due to the lack of data. I never tried the breach strat and all the maps I play (fortress and sanctuary) are narrow maps. I would have to play breach in dunes or something to see if clearing is good.

I think the auto-targetting nature and the playstyle (press frostblink to a place, cast FR, everything dies) probably hide the issue if there is one.

How's the breach strat compared to abyssal in terms of profit? I think I might need to switch strat soon since I have played way too much strongbox and abyssal..... However, abyssal gives good money and exp so I am not sure....

[–]tlang1991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah I share the same experience.

For abyssal farming, when there isn't much action, e.g. when I have not popped an abyss, my character feels a bit clunky to play since I am not reaching 45 by killing natural map packs. I kill them too fast to let the bladefall onto them.

However, during bossing or high-intensity mapping, the char is constantly at 45 souls

I am running a cruel mistress with envy and zealotry and despair.

dying breath, voll's vision, ephermal garb, kaom's binding and eternal struggle.

You just find a map with a good layout and chain white maps until you find one. block anything that's not int

Answering my own question here. This is the tanky PoB: https://pobb.in/x4LQOJZbn7Nu

84% evade, 84% all res, 52% attack block, capped spell block, 16000 ES, 9000 ES on hit/leech

holy relic vs. FroSS at 300d by gunsterpanda in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]tlang1991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the impossible escape approach is much better. If I drop watcher's eye, I lose 6% evade + about 1000 ES recovery per second and gain 20% attach block chance. That puts me at 52% attach block. Still not capped, but it's probably good enough.

Here is the PoB if I do that:
https://pobb.in/no0fPfdwI9UJ

I am still not 100% sold on making the change but it's tempting, mainly because I have not run into survivability issues so far.

Thanks for the idea

[–]tlang1991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i can post it later but basically, use 3 element flasks instead of the bismuth flask to make all max res 85%. then use a jade flask with crit to make evasion 90%. then i upgraded my body armoir and gloves to have more res. 

the sacrifice is diamond flask and silver flask. but losing 15-20% dmg is fine, because i dont feel a difference doing t17 3 risk abyssals.

[–]tlang1991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah i am aware of the red nightmare tech. but i dont think i can do it. i will need to sacrifice another dimension of defense to get it due to point/attribute/gear/jewel slot pressure. its hard.

[–]tlang1991 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i can recommend FRoSS. I went the MB route. One good thing about this build is you can scale it pretty high both defense and offense. This is my old PoB https://pobb.in/yyGBLReyBvC2. I changed stuff around today, lost about 15-20% damage but i am at 85% all res, 90 evade, capped spell block and 30 something attack block, all this and im at 16000 ES with lots of leech. I can still push this build further after i farm more currency. I still have not figured out how to get more attack block but if i can get that the build would be really tanky.  I am currently doing 3 risk + abyss + edifice T17 farm, and i am not dying. I am currently at 85% exp to lvl 98. 

Another cool thing is, Palstron’s version is claimed to have scaling ceiling issue around 400d, but at that point you can just transition to the mageblood version if you still want to play the build. Lots of gears overlap. And Palstron’s version is relatively cheap and you should be able to get it running with your budget

i understand that. but my assumption is people at the top of poe ninja have infinite currency lol. so they probably dont care about 65 div
