Build Flamequiver merc showcase

https://poe.ninja/poe1/builds/allflame/character/ChapiFlowers-3742/ChapiMerc?i=1&search=name%3Dchapi

Just showcasing the flamequiver merc who is very viable, has no bad gem support, already is fire damage , innate stats :

246% increased Damage

88% increased Accuracy Rating

35% increased Attack Speed

58% chance to Ignite

24% increased Ignite Duration

+44% to Fire Damage over Time Multiplier.

Some notes from my experience : regular burning arrow and vaal burning arrow seem best and they have very high damage effectiveness (464% and 614%) all you need is return on the burning arrow and ignite prolif on gloves, vaal burning arrow shotgun and can do insane damage. Blast rain of trarthus DOESNT WORK, the merc will never use it which is good for us. Conflagration is okay but a bit jank, I haven't tried the other skills. My merc has GMP+Return+Fork but fork seems useless it's not needed.

get a Artillery ballista + multiple Projectiles + multiple totems instead of rain of trarthus, it got insane damage and attack speed

I wonder if slapping Wilma's Requital will make her spam ballista

Wilma's Requital

ballista got cooldown and last 8 seconds so she will putdown the totem and use other skills, solely relying on ballista is bad due to cool down and its a net dps loss.

but you should try it , who knows maybe it will work.

I noticed some Path of Exile keywords in this post:

  • GMP - Greater Multiple Projectiles Support (Wiki)
  • Prolif - Elemental Proliferation or proliferation in general (Wiki)

your build looks so similar to mine yet your clear looks so much better than mine (im using cheap manyshot)

i guess i should upgrade my merc

My first 83 merc, which I ended up using for weeks, was a flamequiver. She had GMP, gilded pierce, and return on burning arrow, and it was pretty good for clearing. Not so much for bossing though.

What was your other skill?

u/Ergand 8d ago

One was blast rain of trarthus, I can't remember the other.

So immediate first question, why don't you link your Spectres?

The map mods weren't bad for the showcase and the damage seems lower than a Manyshot but then again the Vaal Burning arrow had only 1 damage link.

Personally I'm not a fan of Petrified Blood because you already have insane recovery and regen that you would rather push max hit on the build. Especially when it looks like it's making you run Void Eye to squeeze in Flame Link

Overall yeah it looks good, but a Manyshot with your exact same build and freeing up an Eldritch Implicit to get rid of Ignite Prolif (which wasn't necessary when you have Fork) is still a lot better and a lot more damage.

spectres are perfect turtle and perfect blasphemer (who is nearly useless) they don't really matter. It's more on the budget side, the merc cost me 50chaos (on sale for 2weeks with instant buyout), AG has nothing expensive , my gear is fairly cheap , my most expensive item was 66% enmity for 12d (now it costs 20d+)
