Tired of Having to Cast Auras Over Again Poe

MAJOR three.17 CHANGES
Due to changes with Hydrosphere, this build volition alter from FrostBlades to Lightning Strike.
3.17 discussion starts on page 20, If you have any questions check if they have already been answered.

Are you tired of builds that claim to be "budget" or "starter" that cost 50ex? Or how near builds that claim they have 3mil dps, but then yous observe they ticked every box in PoB and in reality their dps is 600k?

I am and that is why I wrote this build

This is a starter build with great clear and cracking single target due to the chosen damage mechanics. And all it requires is 2x 3chaos unique swords and optionally 3c unique gloves "Oskarm"

In addition, information technology was relatively unaffected by the 3.xv nerfs when compared to other builds - It lost about 25% of its total harm when including flasks.

3.17 Updates - READ THIS

Build Thought

Why play this build?

PoB/Build Upgrades
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
General changes to all build versions:
1)I decided to get into multiple totems and annoint Panopticon since the only place y'all really need the big damage is on bosses. This allows me to turn on both Warchief and Protector.
2)Build now uses Trinity support. Make sure you buy items that actually allow you to proceeds all resonances or else it's a wasted link.

The damage numbers that I write next to the build version are calculated past adding the melee striking to the ranged hit because y'all can do that with lightning strike.

Vaal lightning strike tin can shotgun the same way normal lightning strike does and it has 2 charges, so information technology is possible to deal 150% more damage for a period of 6 seconds. If You are dealing with a boss that moves around just attach vaal lightning strike to it - it will deal less damage but ever striking.

The PoB is set up and so that information technology displays the damage bachelor to you when yous enter Sirus fight - This ways no Berserk, Vaal Ancestral Warchief or conditonal passives.

Starter

Upgraded

Final Unoptimized

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Videos show Frostblades since that used to be the skill of this build.
I am keeping them around because the lightning strike version will accept like playstyle and higher damage than Frostblades then y'all can still see what y'all tin can expect from the build.

Videos will be changed to Lightning Strike one time I play this build

Overnice man. Really looking to play frostblades this flavour. Just not certain if I want to duel wield or the 2handed variant, cheers :)

Thanks, I looked at the 2h version and honestly the damage output was insane. However I believe my build will outperform that one equally a starter or in full general every bit a build that doesn't have seemingly infinite currency. Y'all can't get incorrect with either though, equally that one was besides really strong.

Where did yous capture your "cheap gear" pastebin? Showtime of maps or comfortably immigration T16s?

How does your mana sustain piece of work? 66 unreserved in the inexpensive gear pastebin, 34 for frostblades, ix.73 attacks per second. Is it that single mana leach passive that keeps yous afloat? Is this forgiving of mistakes? I can see a bad leap slam leaving (54/66 available mana) you without enough mana to move again or attack which would be expressionless in the water, right?

How does your mana sustain work? 66 unreserved in the cheap gear pastebin, 34 for frostblades, 9.73 attacks per second. Is information technology that unmarried mana leach passive that keeps you afloat? Is this forgiving of mistakes? I can see a bad jump slam leaving (54/66 available mana) you without enough mana to motion over again or attack which would exist dead in the water, right?

Starter gear can articulate the about of the game, including A8 Sirus as long as y'all know the mechanics. I accept not tried to do Maven or The Feared with it, that might be likewise difficult.

The build leeches 128 mana per second, and since frostblades has Multistrike support it really only casts three times per second which means 100 mana used per 2d. Leap slam is connected to lifetap to not take any mana problems.
Mana reserved in PoB is likewise using Skitterbots instead of HoI, so during mapping y'all have more mana available to you.

I took witch to brutus and got added lightning damage precious stone, according to wiki scion gets frost flop and added cold damage, is this a mistake?

Yous're suggesting using frostbomb until nosotros discover decent 2x 1h weapons and 3link for gems?

Scion probably gets information technology as a reward, Witch can purchase information technology from Nessa after reaching lower prison. It doesn't actually matter which 1 yous utilise, I merely personally used witch but Scion is just as capable.

Frost flop is a practiced skill for early since it does a lot of damage and can exist linked to onslaught, so yep you can employ Frost Bomb similar all the speedrunners use it. It also serves a secondary purpose, as information technology gives bosses Common cold Exposure and helps you impale them faster with Frost Blades. I by and large do a precious stone swap and put in ruthless in place of Ancestral Call when doing Entrada bosses since they got their health buffed. So frost bomb will farther increment the harm.
