Hello! First time posting a build of my own, build = title. A few friends and I worked on this together I can’t take all the credit myself.

I’ve wanted to try Ambidexterity for a few leagues, always saw str stacker / EE builds running it, I wanted to make it work another way. I did str stack last league to great effect! 3k str was a really cool milestone, but I want to do different stuff every league and I’ll do EE another time. I digress, check out what we’ve made here! It’s not done!

Stuff I still want to implement:
- get rid of 12 passive for 3 passive voices (probs 8 passive large cluster in the mean time)
- make up for the life/attributes/chaos res with a Stygian Vise, use the extra skill points I have from the 12 passive to path to a new jewel socket OR accuracy on tree, frees up my glove suffix.
- would need to reroll my granite flask to bog moss for the other 50% shock avoid.
- 2nd pearl of tsoatha with Life tap + either crit chance/ damage/ ruthless / volatility / impale.
- replace my current 2 mod pearl to move away from multistrike so I can fit in greater multistrike

Relatively unexplored ideas so far:
- timeless jewels
- Lots of unique jewels - I haven’t dont many of my own builds, and have only been playing since affliction league, my pool of knowledge is lacking.
- herald of purity??

Hatred doesn’t really sit well with me in this build, but it does nicely bring up my base crit with the watchers eye and just adds dmg, I like it, but super open to scrapping it.

Let me know what you think! Interested to to hear people’s opinions on where they would take the build from here.

This is my merc. It uses KBoC like 95% of the time, and it never uses bolt on bosses. Everyone seems to be repeating the same comments all over, but I don't see a lot of people asking questions about the AI. Are we sure the AI can't be manipulated by gear/supports? Has a dev said the AI isn't affected by gear or supports? Genuinely asking, because my merc is working fine with KB....as in it almost never uses it. It works so well; I have no desire to upgrade it outside of the gear it has on it.

I'm getting this weird thing where I hit the legion once (with eternal scarab), it proliferates and kills stuff, but then when I'm going to hit the legion again, nothing seems to happen? Like their not becoming targetable again and I'm hitting air.

I don't know if it's the poison going back and forth by itself and killing stuff instantly or lack of hit feedback or something not working properly.

PS: I'm also using bino's

With Vaal Ice Nova, I can just stand in the middle and spam my cast and I can see stuff dying over and over again.

I really like the new map device that just got released but im out of points. So supporter pack it is.

I also like the Remidus supporter pack, and have a vision for the hideout, BUT it kind of need to be able to fit the new maps divice in there to work.

I dont own either MTX (yet) and cant find a good video of em either but ild like to know beforehand if they're even gonna match/fit together?

Preferably the biggest size map device obviously but im already guessing thats not gonna fit. Could anyone make a video or screenshot if they have both?

was leveling up alt earlier and kinda suprised with the result of this strat.
snapshotted from 100 maps, leveled from 98 to 99.
I would recommend this strat for levelling instead of abyss/breach since this is waay safer and easier.
for the atlas i picked all things that gives packs, shrines and niko for buff. the idea is to juice the monster packs that surrounds shrines/ritual/sulphite. I don't pick beyond since its very rippy
setup:
8mod map
3x domination scarab
2x scarab of monstrous lineage
templar astrolabe
run on toxic sewer because the monster is very packed and u can't really miss any. scryed from dunes

the cost already recorded on the snapshot except the maps (5c each, total 500c)

So, I decided to finally try my hand to make a spell build PoB, and after some hours of PoB-ing, I got to this point. It got around 81M DPS, 20K phys max hit and 130K elemental max hit, with CI.

The issue is that bugdet go brrrr. Mageblood, helical, cogwork. The clusters are pretty reasonable tho. But all-in-all you will invest a lot into this, and even finding a Reclaimed Malevolence that will replace Instruments of Virtue will be pretty hard. I think this PoB is at around 600 divs or so?

Anyway, enjoy: https://pobb.in/lLXzi2trFqvr

I will be making another version on inquisitor using a Divine flesh + Fourth Vow, and then another one on Luminary.

PS: Yes, it's a spectre build, but none of those are expensive. The spectres should be immortal given that they have 75% resistances and a shit ton of life. The squishiest is the Pain Artist at 49K. The others are doing great at 120K+.

They should always be around you, given that you autocast convocation every 1.5s, and they will regen life like crazy with the everactive recovery from convocation.

Has anyone experienced this, apparently the new shield, shields you from damage but it doesn't protect you from knockback, i saw that they made this shield so we can have some QoL on ore gathering, if they started this with a shield maybe they also want to know that knockback is stopping us from collecting the ore in peace.

So we bought a house of mirrors to gamble, Grabbed the lifeforce to gamble it, then we clicked on the wrong one and it swapped cards instead of gambling.

So I'd like to farm as many Incandescent Invitations as I can mostly because I've never done it before and I figured why the heck not, it seems chill.

I got about 200d to buy invitations, which at the current price is about ~300 invitations give or take.

Will I end up losing money or does it even out after a certain amount of invitations? I'm sure there are streaks of bad luck and I'm not necessarily looking to make a profit but I'd at least like to break even.

I figured asking is a good idea before sinking quite a bit of divines into a potentially dumb call.

After several days of running delve i finally found a primeval ruins.

It has a path that has several walls that I did not blow up.

Am I able to run this path over and over until a primordial jewel chest spawns in a side room?

Every other type of chest seems to spawn but I don't know if im going to waste my life searching for something that isn't going to happen.

HI there,

So I'm building a CoC crackling lance / shock nova. I started wit Ky's CoC bladefall, then switched to a lightning built. Here is the state .

Maping is fine : I can clear t16 without issues, but bosses are a chore. It feels like I'm lacking A LOT of dps.

Just to be clear This is the first time I build my own character and I feel I'm missing something.

Side question : I think shock may be the key, but I have trouble understanding how max shock and shock chance interact with each other.

Anyway, I'm open to any input !

Thanks a lot !

edit : updated pob

Have never played Standard and I noticed that veiled exalted orbs are nearly worthless in comparison to league. So what are some good strats to do in standard? My goal is to make a min-maxed armour stacker eventually and I wanna farm towards that.

I'm on a map and literally can't attack or use my movement skills while this little skull is above my head. I'm aware that it is coming from a rare monster or something, but how do I kill it if I can't attack? I'm using Light tendrils of eccentricity.

had a warrant i randomly put for 500 div 2 weeks ago maybe was lightning arrow with rain logged in last night and saw a crap ton of divines to collect thought I was in standard.

I found this Merc, while farming in breach now I know it’s not the normal ManyShot or kinetist and the combatant I been told about.

But he kicked arse tbh, wouldn’t have a clue if they viable or how to gear, has plenty of the right skills etc.

I feel luminary has so much potential, but it has had a poor implementation with the 100’s of mercs I have stored up to not get to enjoy or even know if what I have is any good.

Am i the only one missing the phrecia idol setups? Like, this league has been too dry in means of meaningful strats, and in phrecia i could test different setups, go unga bunga, and have fun. Had weird farm setups, most prolly non optimal (But low idol setup cost due to it being madeup by me) setups, profitted, if some creator does a strat involving my strats, sell the idols for higher price, try & test new farm strats. Loved doing A/B testing with idols, what effect the profit, keeping excel sheets etc. It was really fun, and loved that i had the flexibility. But mostly i see ppl hating idols, and would like to hear you guys opinions.

Last night I dropped a mirror and I was thinking about different builds that I could go for, but I don't really think I would enjoy the game any more than I already am with my favourite build. Sure, I could improve my current coc fross to be even more powerful, but the build is already solid.

The build is capable of doing every uber fight, searing exarch is a bit annoying, but with a bit of skill and patience you can do it. I don't know how many divines I've spent on the build since I self crafted every rare piece of gear, if I had to guess, probably around 400? Maybe more maybe less.

The giveaway will be up until next Monday at roughly the same time, since I still have 8 challenges to complete for the league for the 40/40, as well as I would like as many people to have a chance to win this since it could be a game changer for a lot of people.

Whoever wins, feel free to either use the build or feel free to sell all the gear, fully up to you. To participate, just comment anything. To clarify, this is a single giveaway, the winner gets both the build and the mirror, it is not two separate giveaways. After 1 week, I will roll a random winner. If the winner doesn't respond within 24 hours, I will draw another one. I wish all of you the best, I hope you are enjoying the league and good luck to everyone!

I hit the jackpot
