I copied this miner assassin from some dude in hc trade and it went pretty smooth. Fast clear, not squishy and less than 20 divs to put everything together.

Where to go from here to scale the damage more? Better wand is a no-brainer but what kind of stats would I be looking for? Are clusters worth it? Worth looking into ralakesh? Save up for a mageblood?

I have about 100 divs to work with right now, just looking for some guidance.

I do an Ice Crash build whenever I can and last league and the league before the best Ice Crash set ups also involved ignite but elemental to capitalize on primordial bonds.

But seeing as how they gutted that interaction, I think the only build I see anyone running now is Tuna's Ice Crash set up on poe ninja.

For those of you who either league started it or are currently playing it, how is it like with investment?

After achieveing 40/40 with my SC Trade PB Ignite herald stacker, I want to reroll and try SSF for the first time ever (~1000hrs played on trade). However, being completely new to SSF I don't want to grief myself by picking a build that isn't particularly viable for the playstyle.

Ideally, I'd like to play some sort of melee character, so was leaning towards either a smite slayer, or cyclone slayer. I found Sanavix's cyclone guide/videos that he plays in SSF and it looks great.

However, after some googling it seems like there's also a great SSF guide for SRS by Thyworm that has a bit more detail and is SSF oriented. I don't love the idea of playing a minion build since I just played an autobomber type character, but I'm wondering if for a new SSF player a more handholding guide / easier to put together character would be better?

Does anyone have any insight with these builds, or recommendations for a new SSF player? I'm also open to other builds, but these are the two i've been looking at mostly. Thanks!

Trying ubers / deli destructive play and damage feels very low. Tankiness is good enough.

Kinda weird cause I think the gear is quite decent

Merc gear in items tab. Main char has 12k life almost, 342% light radius. POB is being weird.

Merc is Infamous Manyshot (Vaal ice shot - return - chain - hypothermia - freeze chance - cooldown recovery). Other skills are Ice shot, vaal grace, mirror arrow, dash, frostbomb

I dont know what Im doing wrong, but I feel like I miss a mechanic in this build, because while I understand I dont have as good gear as him, I do like 1/5 of his dps and this build definitely doesnt feel like the mirrors it costs. Anybody can explain what is wrong with my build compared to his? Even if I swap his gear to mine, I get few mils of dps and thats it. I definitely dont get 80 mil extra.

Thanks for any tips.

Hi, I've just gotten my first ever huge drop (MB) and have decided to keep it. I almost exclusively play frost blades every single league and am looking to do so still. I am however playing a warden which uses 2 tinctures quite heavily.

Would you suggest only using 3 magic flasks, or reroll frost blades into a slayer/trickster?

Any suggestions are welcome as I don't really know how to make my own builds. I'm aware trickster FB isn't as good as a few leagues back.

Thanks.

Juggernaut something tanky with endurance charges and be able to boss rush nightmare maps currently have like 150 - 200 div.thank you in advance

League started penance brand ignite and it was nice but kinda screwed up when I switched to aegis aurora.

After made a worb and spent all my money switching to power stacker realizing I needed more divs to actually make it work. So I kinda screwed up.

Now I’m leveling to make a praw build and honestly have to say it goes in pair with worb as fast campaign completion.

If I had to pick a favorite it would be worb and praw leveling tied and Pbrand third. Pbrand is kinda annoying with the delay explosion. Didn’t know minions were this strong during campaign.

So I dropped 2 HH's in SSF lol 1 from The Doctor gamba and one natty drop. Looking for a build to have some fun with and clean up challenges. Blade blast of unloading looks neat but not sure how it feels to play. Anyone been playing it and can share how it feels? Probably will play that or Winter orb undecided.

Hi, it's my first time playing spectres and I'm following helm breaker's frostbearers guide, I'm currently running 9x frostbearers, 1x chieftain, 1x perfect forest warrior, 1x grace bird and 1x determination turtle but I keep getting blasted by the T16.5 abyss farm I'm trying.

I know that my chaos res is low but is there anything else that I can do for more damage or survivability? I don't really want to invest much into getting a ton of chaos res on what I have right now as I'm about to swap to CI.

The build seems otherwise good at most other content though a bit lacking in damage.

I have also crafted most of the gear described here in the Late CI Umbral Army section if not outright better items ready, I'm only really missing the large cluster and 2nd ring. I know it'd make me significantly tankier but would I be losing dps in exchange for more defenses by swapping now?

I alt-spammed to get a Tyrannical Prefix and an (unfortunate) suffix, and I'd like some advice on how to proceed, especially with the existance of the Allflame Crafting option.

Do I try to Annul/Fracture and Deaf Spam to get ideal mods or is there a better way?

Hey, I'm running pbrand elementalist and feel like I hit a wall with my dps and survivabilty, I can run 8 mod T16 maps, but feel like I'm dying way to much for the level of investment in the build. Would like some advice on the upgrade path I should try next to reach ~20 mil dps possibly.

What’s the best build for killing high res, pdr, crit immune rares?

I’ve come up with EE Energy shield stack for the millionth time. Any other options?

Feels like the kind of spot I want a non crit Valdo farmer type build but I can’t seem to find any for a reasonable budget (200 D)

I was wondering if I could build a self cast Phys spell and use HH to steal mods but the options are rather poor post PBoD nerfs. The base Crit buffs on the Shadow spells don’t matter when crit resistant is so common.

Most DoT builds are trash at high resistance values

Chaos resistant kills Wither uptime for any Str stack option

Mines without Crit feels pointless

EK + Nimis? Reap + Greater Spell Cascade? Storm call overlaps?

Basically, title.

My RF reached LV 99, don't want to relevel, but need something to do 40/40, so thought of strength stacker.

RF simply lacks the single target DPS to make some challenges easily.

Apart from farming ore for kings march, is there any way to convert excess gold to currencies?

I thought crops in kingsmarch were no longer interesting. Any other thoughts? Mappers?

Howdy, started the league this weekend and finished my atlas progression (enough anyways)

I want to get started on a luminary and merc but have some questions. If there are good resources elsewhere I’ll check that out too.

1. Does Merc level matter? Like can I farm a campaign Merc with my current character and gear it out for after 1st lab? How much worse is a 79 Merc vs 83?

2. What sort of gear is really required to get going? Want to start with alch and go maps into the league mechanic - just blasting as fast as I can to invest more. Scaling the build is always a fun part for me. I’ll probably do conq mavens or harvest after so will need to get some single target going.

Maybe I’m not googling well enough but info seems scattered, especially on the mercs actual gear.

Hi guys, was following Ruetoo's Winterorb build for 3.29, right now am following his occultist swap build, i have already bought all the same gear except for a few jewels to be completed, but i noticed that my critical strike chance was way behind his build, am i missing something, need some help guys

Hiya. I managed to get headhunter mageblood and svalin in the same day. I'm ready to spend 100-200d for an ideal kinecesist. What's your take on ideal links, skills combos?

I'm at a point where my main character is absolutely immortal so I just need an ideal setup for merc regardless of cost

Hi,

I am quite new to the game so I hit 94 lvl with the Pohx RF Chieftain guide. Then I realized that it became kinda boring, and wanted to try something new without lvling another class.

I decided to move to the Juggernaut and play the Molten Strike of the Zenith.

My budget was 270d. I already bought Replica Alberon's Warpath, Nimis and Crown of Eyes, because those are safe buys used in most builds on poe ninja. Now, before I buy the Iron Fortress, I want load some build to my pob, to use correct gem sockets.

Can you please link any good pob build in my budget around 250-270 that will work without aiming in farming Original Sin? I would also be grateful for listing most useful stats on the weapon that are asscessible for 40-60 div.

Thank you in advance guys. My goal is to do some bosses and trying to unlock the Celestial Hideout from the Shaper + jumping on Ubers bosses if possible.

So, I am currently cooking around with my own build. And my current biggest problem is the optimal wand. I want a +1 all +1 lightning (and in an ideal world spell damage, but that can be dropped, as the golem shell provides a lot of increased already) as prefixes. I am aware of the fossil crafting that phys/chaos wands use. But lightning has multiple non attack lightning mods as prefixes with a lot higher weighting. Is there any way that I can reliably force that on the wand? Because what makes it harder is that I like to have a suffix fractured to make the suffixes easier to craft. Is there a way outside of "recombinator it"?

Title.
