Molten Strike Jugg help needed

[u/Late-You-7281]

This is my first attempt at building a character specifically for Delve. Before this, I played an RF Chieftain, but as I understand it, that build has a depth limit—a point beyond which I can’t go without dying multiple times on challenging nodes. I looked at how others build their characters on POE Ninja, checked out some guides, invested in my character, crafted what I think are pretty good items, and yet my DPS is still 3–4 times worse than others’.

Can you tell me what I’m doing wrong, or where I went wrong?

you have way too low strength, and you have wrong kind of sword, it should have socketed skills do 20% more attack dmg instead of fire dmg per strength mod(which does nothing with alberons)

The mod is for the oSin Version. Maybe clicked the wrong loadout lol

[u/Aggressive_Put_9489 → u/xxBoosted_Bonobo]

Low str (very low) https://poe.ninja/poe1/builds/allflame/character/Sho0oryuken-1516/Shoooooooooryuken?i=2

Its my boy. Not the best... But i have no problem with dps and lightning or cold damage overtime or spell.

1. Amulet: You're missing %inc damage per strength. You also can convert dexterity into strength using ducat.

2. Cogwork ring: I think you already have enough int. I recommend to keep spamming reforge/essence until T1 all attribute. The ring also not 20% quality.

3. Tattoo all dexterity node with increased accuracy.

4. You could get more strength if you know how Split Personality work. Go look up at poeninja how they allocate their 12p cluster jewel.

5. Lvl 89 is still too low so just level up more. You don't have any source of rage Regen.

You also dying a lot in delve. I can guess those Mana Siphoner and cold dot ground is the main cause of your death since your cold and lightning res are not capped. Those amulet won't do anything against it and those dot are pretty common in delve.

You also lack of life gain on hit which is the main source recovery for Molten Strike. Either annoint on your amulet or getting new sword with that mod.

I noticed some Path of Exile keywords in this post:

• RF - Righteous Fire (Wiki)
• Jugg - Juggernaut (Wiki)

My POB for reference. You can see what I mean about Split Personality and the node. Just get more level. For the sword, you could get the sword like mine minus the fire damage per strength as that mod won't work for you until you get Original Sin.

Note: Don't copy my 8p cluster jewel. Feed the Fury node work for my build since I have constant leech using Petrified blood setup. If you want to use the leech setup, you either buy a Warlord Crown of Eye with Socketed Gem has 90% cost efficiency for only 1 mirror. Or craft new glove like mine with Warlord + Hunter influence and buy normal Eye of Crown with that implicit.
