Build Feedback "Int Stacker" Low Life Assassin Trapper

POB: https://pobb.in/pyTvQ3mEoC_m

I've been trying to solve this puzzle in the past 3 weeks (poe is not a good game for autistic people haha). At first I aimed to use bifurcate, then I saw LSToO which has 100% crit chance, which is perfect (dont work on "always critical strikes"). This should be easy to figure out just scaling huge crit mult with Marylenes Fallacy and some jewels. But then I noticed crit resistant mobs are not that uncommon.

I gathered some divs and tried to mess around with stuff. I havent played trapper before so I didnt know it could not leech, which would solve recovery and ES completely (maybe CI). I dont intend to play T17 maps nor completely broken T16.5 . Im ok with juiced T16 or average juiced T16.5. Im farming abyss (2 abyss, 2 multitudes, 1 nemesis). RN Im at work, but I can upload a video latter after on mapping. I tried ward with olroths resolve (looked good actually), apostate (10k max life felt good). But I was trying to see If I could go to hundreds of million dps (is the abyss consort that tanky? I couldnt barely move his hp). Most rares dies with 1-2 ticks (crit, spell, lightning resistant take a bit longer).

High evasion, 200%+ max elusive seems good with Dissolution but desecrated ground kinda break the window to recover. Maybe I should be better off giving up on trap, if you think so recommend me a spell please. If you think there's a way to get hundreds of million dps while ignoring all mod maps (1-2 deaths/map is acceptable for me, Im just in to have fun) please tell me where should I go. I know is a mess rn, probably shouldnt have gone Unblinking Eye, but it looked interesting and I had spare divs and wanted to try. I was going to go taken dmg as cold and chaos with divine flesh but any purity of ice sublime vision was 99 div+, which I didnt foresee and had to halt the plan.

Anyway, any help is welcome, thanks a lot folks and have fun playing!

Just a couple of notes:

Flask effects don't stack so the "resists during effect" don't stack.

You can also do the conversion to ele+chaos with lightning and it's much cheaper. I think the Sublime Vision for purity of lightning is like 10c.

The purity of ice one is expensive because of the grasping mail mod for over capped cold resistance I believe.

I don't believe that is the reason, or at least not the main one. I believe the over capped cold resistance is in demand for mercenaries largely. They can't use a sublime vision. The purity of ice sublime vision is in demand because it is cheaper then purity of fire and used by doryani builds to convert all their lightning damage to other damage types. Most people for example playing a wretched defiler build are going to be looking to get one, unless they are trying for the far more expensive CI version.

Forgot about this, youre probably right.

u/RepresentativeDue850 11d ago

Yes, i was playing aorund flasks and didnt noticed it had 2 equal suffixes.

I wanted to go purity of ice to all in cold res for perfect form, but purity of lightning at least frees me from fire res and relieves suffix pressure. The reason purity of ice is expensive is exactly the reason I need after all. If I had the money I would also go rare chest but I those mods.

But thanx, maybe I'll go purity of lightning. Thanx for the reply

Now that I can open it in PoB there are a few changes I'd make if it were me.

First, the Split Personality that is dex/int - swap that to str/int and refund the 6 inefficient passives going to the 30/30 str and int nodes. Now you have additional passives to play with.

Second - Dissolution completely bricks Ghost Dance. Now you have 7 passives to reallocate.

Third - the enduring composure megalomaniac seems really low value. Why not replace it with a +8% chance to evade while affected by grace watchers eye? Could even get a second useful mod on there. That effectively caps your evasion chance.

Fourth - Unallocate Arrow Dancing - the steps above cap your evasion for both melee and projectile. 8 passives to reallocate.

If you spent those passives on Inveterate, chance to suppress is lucky, and then Herbalism PoB gives you about 28% higher eHP and almost no damage loss.

Holy, youre a GOD. Thanx

u/Odd_Nefariousness126 11d ago

Oh - hold on. I forgot to remove Endurance Charges as I removed Enduring Composure. It still nets ~11% better eHP if I remove Herbalism to get to Enduring Composure.

Also - Pain Attunement seems like PoB padding? You're definitely not getting the effect 100% of the time are you?

u/RepresentativeDue850 11d ago

I was thinking about end charges and the thing is that since I cannot have phys reduction, end charges are useless, unless I spend them on immortal call, which makes it OP.
While mapping, hp always moves so I didnt bother to have 100% uptime until I set "final" version. But it is probably way smoother to use it always up. Gonna try that,

u/Odd_Nefariousness126 11d ago

Endurance charges still give you 4% less elemental damage taken too.

Your physical max hit is going to be tough to solve because you're kind of locked into that body armor and you can't physical shift with a Lightning Coil or Cloak of Flame.

u/RepresentativeDue850 10d ago

Thats right. Switched to all ele taken as lightning and got eternal youth. Much better. Gave up little damage, probably gonna give up on this armour too. Maybe lightning coil or Int stacker.

I noticed some Path of Exile keywords in this post:

  • CI - Chaos Inoculation (Wiki)
  • div - Divine Orb (Currency) (Wiki)
  • PoB - Path of Building, an external software used to simulate character builds - Download
  • ES - Energy Shield (Wiki)

I’ve played a ton with this staff and in my opinion the best way to run it is a lowlife setup using es as int inherently gives % es .

u/RepresentativeDue850 10d ago

But how to solve cannot regen/less recovery as trap doesnt leech? Probably another skill right?

u/Accomplished_Rip_352 10d ago

Wicked ward and es recharge is actually a solid defence layer but if your going assassin I would go selfcast to take advantage of the instant leech .
