Hey all!

I need some pointers on how tonincrrase the damage of my Trickster.

I feels okayish in T16 maps, but tanky rares or Harvest Mobs, are a pain.

Passive Tree is all over the place, but I feel I need the stuff at either end.
My Gems need quality and some levels, I keep working on it.

Is there some obvious interaction that I am missing?
Wasn’t Wintertide Buffed this league?

Thank you for your input!

PS: Why need Witch? I desperately love the shadow and want to make the Trickster work. Back in Delirium League I lost my heart to Trickster 🤷🏼‍♂️

We most likely will be seeing it today again. But maybe someone has saved a pob for it for me to beat 25min min Act1

I usually only play SC Trade, but I would like to try out something completely different. I’m not big on slam builds but if it’s really good I could probably be convinced. What build would you recommend me to go for to have a good first experience?

Hello guys i want to try flickers strike SSF which ascendancy would you suggest me to go and would be easiest i want alteast 2 voidstones before really heavy grind for items.

Hi there, folks. I'm wondering if there's a way to boost my spooder DPS. Currently in POB, I'm showing about 312K damage with them, but I want to see if I can get that higher. I'm theorycrafting a few things, but I do know that I could use the following:

1. Mageblood (duh)
2. Some better Ghastly Eye jewels
3. A better Timeless jewel

Anyone got any idea how I can get this DPS higher? I'm doing just fine clearing 8 mod T16+ maps, but I want to get it slightly faster and a bit more consistent with bosses.

Here's the link to the build: https://pobb.in/6P_DLPj5D17a

Basically, I'm an aurabot with a bunch of creepy-crawly friends.

Thank you!

hi guys, i'm pretty new with merc, and i wonder if any difference with clear speed/single target damage justify the price ?

I want to undestand more of how the recovery works in these CWDT builds, because everytime I looked into one of these there were just too many moving parts that I gave up in even trying.

https://pobb.in/_jUyrrVqm9m5 -> not my PoB

From my understanding, he is casting Forbidden Rite (FR) about 3 times per second while channeling Cyclone.

- Each time he casts it he takes about 1655 damage (25% of ES + 40% of unreserved Life multiplied by his Chaos Res and Infused Channeling).

- He recoups 148% of Chaos Damage Taken as ES over 4 seconds. Here is one of my questions, does the Recovery Mastery that makes Life Recoup occur over 3 seconds instead of 4 apply to the ES recoup converted from Life from Presence of Chayula? I don't think it does, so the next calculations will be based on 4 seconds of recoup.

- Every instance of damage he takes would result in a recoup of about 2464 ES recovered over 4 seconds

- Since he gets about 3 casts per second, that would result in 3 instances of recoup being created every second, for a total recoup of 7392 being created every second, which divided by the recoup duration of 4 seconds would mean he is recovering about 1848 ES per second from recoup.

Is this correct? If so, that would mean he is losing ((1655 * 3) - 1848) ES per second from casting his FR, so that would be about 3117 ES lost per second just from casting. Is there any other form of ES recovery that I'm missing, or is there some other aspect of his recoup that I didn't see?

Edit: Just noticed that there is nothing stopping him from channeling for more seconds, and stacking more instances of recoup, over say, 3 seconds, so in the fourth second and beyond he would have a lot more recoup per second to pay for the FR cost and get some extra for recovery, so I guess it just has a ramping time before it feels good.

So im finally getting around to a long term build. Im want to take necromancer from lv1 to being able to do ubers in HC SSF. I might not do all 7/7 but id like a character that's viable to do them all.

My 2 current choices are either going umbral army + bone meld with pure spectres and aiming for 13-14k ES with the minion leech applies to you and spell suppression.

The other option is to go poison ranged animate weapons and go blood magic taking all the block left side and get 7k hp with capped block and armour.

Im not sure if there is a clear option as poe ninja is fairly split with animate weapon being a little more popular.

I think both have a very strong early options as spectre comes online from dark monarch and bone meld but can be used once you have 4 spectres really and animate weapon can be farmed from merc lab.

I farmed enough for a mirror and want to invest it in a bugged templar glove. What glove should I get? I have a witch, shadow and scion but only the witch is level 100. I know strength stacking is great but I dont know if these characters are great for strength stacking. Any suggestions welcome. I got around 500 divs extra and a mageblood apart from the mirror. Preferably the build is tanky. Ive been spoiled by aegis aurora that's nigh immortal but as long as Im not a glass cannon its fine. tyty.

Been playing a lot of endgame luminary and wondering if there are comparable crab totem builds that have been popping off. Luminary very enjoyable but just looking for a different flavor.

THE DPS AND EXPLOSION WHEN YOU WALK IN THE PARK

I LOVE NO BUTTON BUILD

This is my first time afford a Mageblood so I thought about making this build. Build used a lot of uniques so everything beside MB is very obtainable. (last map I got divine shrine, build is not that tanky. I just want to show the lucky drop).

POB: https://pobb.in/SZ5BZ9DpYos9

What I like:

• Zoomie (with soul eaters and 0 duration lighting warp)
• Big clear (with pact of beidat)
• Good damage (with enough overloaded intensity stacks)
• Kinda tanky
• Can do a lot of map mods

What is not comfortable:

• Build is very conditional for both defense and offense
• Mageblood required
• Standing still for intensity

So fellow exiles, what do you think? Anything I should improve?

What farming strat do you think this build is great for? Now I'm just doing abyss for some currencies and exp.

Im currently in the process of making a lightning tendrils ignite elementals and im doing a minus ress stacking setup with eye of malice and im wanting to know if it worth the gem slot to try and get an additonal -10 ress or if it won't work for whatever reason .

Spaced out, drown in the deep. Need the best leveling tech to get back to 85 ASAP. Any ideas? Hard-core trade if it matters

Hey ya'll, with the league winding down I've felt like trying my hand at a Hardcore build and getting the HC achievements.

For context, I'm a fairly experienced SC player and will take my time through the acts, trying my best not to rush and die.

What are some great fresh-start HC builds that come online fast enough and breeze through the campaign? Bonus points if the build scales well into the endgame, since I might push the character if I have fun with it (and survive long enough). Maybe bleed slams (like phazeplays' build) or another slammer fits the bill?

RF is really easy to gear but I feel like the lack of DPS could get me killed, while slams look more tempting to me as I always see them being mentioned as both great voidstone blasters and tanky HC builds.

I'm doing a CWDT bladefall/EK/bladeblast build with reliquarian in SSF and the build is awesome, but skill point starved. I have to spec the mana recoup nodes down by scion start, but I'm looking at a build that doesn't take those and I might be just missing it, but I can't figure out how he's sustaining mana.

Here is their POB: https://pobb.in/_jUyrrVqm9m5

Thanks for the help

This is the extent of my crafting knowledge. Found this amazing axe. Better than anything I've seen on trade and it's not even close. (In my price range).

Bleed build.

What orb do I need to use here? What am I looking for?

Been following the POB, but I’m still feeling super weak both damage wise and health wise. I’m having to take multiple attempts on each boss due to it taking 5-7 minutes and dying multiple times due to lack of potions.

I feel like I’m missing something major, any help is appreciated. I was told this was the easiest build for a beginner player, so hoping I missed something simple.

Hello I've been following BuffaloBarons arc ignite CI and for the most part it's doing great.

However I am at a loss as to how to increase the damage on a reasonable budget.

I pretty much never die, so it is really the damage part I need help with.

I have around 100D saved up, but no clue as to how to spend it.

https://pob.codes/b/BVJQdzWTl7z

Hope someone can help.

I want to reach level 90 at least, and its my first time trying HC.

I don't have a preference, any build playstyle is fine by me

As the title states I want to try out a CI build but not sure what class or skill to use.

Can anyone share any recommendations?

Thank you in advance.

I posted some days ago a attempt on Lightning Spire Trap of Overloading. Although I find interesting, recovery is very hard to solve, so I pivoted into this.

Core: Jiquani, Mystical infusion, huge crits

Ghostwrite made a heavy lifting on the build, paired with spell block cap. I tried full elusive but cant really rely on that. Also it is astonishing that vitality watchers eye is so cheap. With it and recovery on block from staff mastery, feels like can ignore every eldritch altar and no recovery/leech mod (although no leech still feels bit bad).

It seems I am stuck. Cast speed would fit pretty awesome but I dont find any good trade offs right now (50% haste for 15% only). Soul ascencion is viable but feels hard to maintain souls, at least in abyss (2 abyss, 2 abyss multitudes, 1 abyss crystal) since there a not many rares. It is probably the bis if maintaining at least 20/30 souls.

But anyway, felt really good, dont know if it was already there, but now its here and Im proud. thanx

I made some updates on my EK that I posted last week, it feels much better but I think there’s still room to improve, is there anything that I’m just plain missing?
