As the focus of my build was clear I havent included these possibilities, however, if maximum damage is your aim I would probably look at +3 Gems bow instead. But the recommended bodiers are either 2 expensive, or too high of dexterity to ever get 3blue 2 green early on. This is not necessary at all for the build and was excluded from any of the damage stats and calculations, simply because it will not be a realistic acquisition for virtually all players. Be sure to experiment with Jewels you find or see on the market, as they can transform your build in ways no other items can match. As with most builds that use classic Auras, a Watcher's Eye is going to be your best bet in the extreme late-game, or when you are rolling in the Exalted Orbs. It's a random unveil from Jun. https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3053600 - My Guides. I like the shield/wand combo for speed and defenses but if you want to reconfigure the build for pure damage, especially for bossing, the bow works great. Prioritize stats as follows: If you are using Impresence (Chaos) and want to incorporate Blasphemy Support with your Despair, you will want to use an Unset Ringwhich can roll # to Level of Socketed Gems (up to +3 at Item Level 76). You will also want a Life roll, since we are a hybrid build. even tho its a 5 link. We still recommend the damage enchant for all-round purposes, but the disparity is smaller than in previous leagues. There are two great Unique options for this build: Two other strong options for improving offense, particularly early in a league, are: A high Energy Shield (ideally 400+) Hubris Circlet is the best choice. There are numerous Jewels that can be placed all over the Passive Tree that have enormously powerful influence over your damage and defense. Its definitely more damage, but less clear speed. Here is Furtys Rank 5 character from the SSF Legion League: This can be used as a reference point, however, bear in mind that not all gear used is absolutely ideal as it is a Solo Self-Found character. There are several viable options for this, but default placement is displayed below, as you want to start using this Jewel immediately while leveling and it is the closest candidate to the Shadow starting area: We prefer the use of Standard Jewels over Abyss Jewels in all scenarios. I'm pretty sure it's a veild mod, but I can't find anything on if it comes from a specific syndicate member or if it's just a random veild mod on weapons. probably an armor or something is smartest, but 90% of my deaths have been from running into a pack and dropping to 0.5 fps before i can get my skill off so thinking something offensive is ideal but still not sure. in my experience despair always overrides temp chains. First of all, thx for this great guide. Sorry if I missed this being asked or discussed in a previous comment but I had a pair of Storm's Gift drop and since my old gloves were not the best I swapped them out Im a little confused on the whole shock mechanic and how it works and had found various opinions on this online but Ive been experimenting with them for a few levels and it feels like it is actually really helping with the clear speed but wasnt sure if anyone else has used these gloves and if they help with the damage. Happy launch day! This is a good point, and just a mistake. arent they both curses? Prioritize Watcher's Eye mods as follows: Spreading Rot is absolutely required for this build and can be acquired free of charge from the Act V quest Death to Purity (after you kill Innocence). Great guide, thanks! No nerfs and no buffs mean there might not change much to our league starters but Hey Exiles, Last league I played ED/CT with Cane of Unravelling. Its a little worse defensively than the other two main choices but its still a fairly potent item. This is the first time I've ever really done any crafting, so I was following what was written in the guide. May I als you to explain how to craft the Wand now?

By acquiring an Abyss Jewel with % Chance to Gain Onslaught for 4 Seconds on Kill, we forego the need to use a Silver Flask entirely. If you want to explore more options for Gear (both budget and high-end), Flasks, or get more information on alternatives and specialty items, please ensure you read the Gear, Jewels, and Flasks section in its entirety. Zeel's Amplifier is the best option for clearing and experience per hour as it has decent Spell Damage and organically increases your Area of Effect, which is invaluable for maximizing proliferation of your diseases without heavy investment into Area of Effect skill tree nodes and causing your Contagion to chain across multiple screens more reliably. To craft a wand you will need a few Exalted Orbs to pay the crafting cost. Or does it affect all? Prioritize stats as follows: Rare Two-Stone Ring (Fire / Lightning Resistances) are the best choice in most situations, as there are not any damage increasing implicits we can take advantage of. how does it work, running both temporal chains and despair aura with impresence chaos? A Rare Amulet or Talisman is a great alternative.

And perhaps you could Change the other non-alignment cdot recommendartons as well? A subreddit dedicated to Path of Exile, an ARPG made by Grinding Gear Games. Witchfire Brew is a popular flask, especially on Softcore, but overall it does not do enough in most situations to warrant sacrificing a Flask suffix. Bear in mind that the Intelligence requirement does not need to be talented, just within the radius of the Jewel. What is your reason for deleting this comment? Two-Toned Boots (Fire and Cold Resistances) with Evasion and Energy Shield are a nice acquisition to allow you to pass over some Resistances on other times. Wands are the best choice for this build due to their Spell Damage implicits. Just broke 1 million tooltip in my hideout, no charges or extra auras.. Fixed! For example, Furtys Rank 5 Solo Self-Found character managed to procure the Glorious Vanity Jewel shown below, with some of the Notables pictured so you are able to see the potency. also can you please check my profile if there is something that i can work on enhance the character : https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Ghostawy/characters, one last thing what do you suggest about anoint ? We also recommend switching Pantheon to Soul of Gruthkul if you are aiming to go deeper than Depth ~400. As long as you have these three stats (even if one of them is crafted) with a fairly decent roll, you will have a fairly potent weapon. GGG has made a news Hey Exiles! Essence Drain duration is actually better than damage in some cases, particularly when dealing with monoliths, as it allows your Essence Drain to bounce for longer and propagate throughout the entire pack. This means that a Hubris Circlet with 400 Energy Shield, for example, will provide a whopping 2000 Evasion Rating by itself despite being an Energy Shield base. In the Sentinel league, They are revamping the cha Hey Exiles, Place Malevolence in the +# to Gem Level Unset Ring. This is a good choice for the late game when you are looking to start farming bosses, such as the Uber Elder. it doesnt. We also take over the guides from writers that are no longer able to maintain their guides and have our team of professional Path of Exile players keep them up to date. since in path of building it gives me quite a lot more dps (from 130k to 170k) than the crafted wand plus shield A good historic gem also does wonders and the new cluster jewels can add a TON of DoT multiplier. i was thinking of anoint devotion instead of wasting some skill points to reach there and use the remain skills It will not be updated for future patches. Hey there, glad to hear youve enjoyed this build! Edit: As we ran into some issue this is postponed until further notice :) Path of Exile Sentinel 3.18 launches today! Any help would be appreciated! How is it this league? If you are very rich or you want to Fossil Craft it yourself, the Nearby Enemies Have -9% Chaos Resistance affix is quite potent. Follow these steps: Once you have a Rare Opal Wand with a Tier 1 or Tier 2 % to Non-Ailment Chaos Damage over Time Multiplier or % Increased Cast Speed roll (or both, if you are one of the luckiest people ever), your wand is basically done. A quick question, you mention that in Act 1 you can link Essence Drain with Void Manipulation and Efficacy. If you are using Hyrri's Ire or The Perfect Form, we recommend using the Cast Speed enchantment or the Spell Dodge. I found that this build ends up with quite a bit of evasion so the movement speed is a plus, along with a boost of resistances. I have a really dumb question about quiver crafting. I imagine I wanted to convey that this was the most important 3-Link as well as to pick up Void Manipulation Support in Act I and confused the thoughts. Last edited by MechanicalLord on Oct 17, 2020, 11:32:59 PM. A Stygian Vise is the best belt base to use. It is a Stibnite Flask, so that will be the Flask that you swap out. This affix can only be found on Searching Eye Jewels and Murderous Eye Jewels. i specd into whispers of doom for the second curse so i could get the challenge (Encounters I). These items strike a balance between power and cost-effectiveness. now i know i also lose up on some other bonuses but was wondering if its ok to just stick with the staff? Disclaimer: This section is still under work for Metamorph 3.9 as crafting has been heavily altered and new Conquerors affixes have been introduced. You generally need to rework the build a bit to incorporate Whispers of Doom, or simply re-orient the build to be less well-rounded and more of an offense focused one. {{shareLink}}. Just checking in on the 3.9 updates. Prioritize stats as follows: Atziri's Step are one of the best options for this build. You will only find it on items that can have it, usually weapons like a bow. hey im currently playing ssf sc on the blight league and was using cane of unraveling since i had it drop and was wondering whatd you think of it? Besides our amazing content writers, we are publishing or maintaining our own guides as well. A Rare Fossilised Spirit Shield or Titanium Spirit Shield (offense and defense, respectively) is also an option. Spiritual successor to Diablo 2, Press J to jump to the feed. Prioritize the stats of your belt as follows: One of the main reasons to use a Stygian Vise is that we want to have an Abyssal Socket so we do not need to waste a Jewel Socket. Thanks again for the build DankawSL ! as for annoiting, on amulet i started with Alacrity (+30 dex for 3 clear oil) to wear my Zodiac Leather, then changed that to Herbalism (+10% life, plus some flask bonuses think it was 1 silver, 1 opal, 1 teal). The Opal Wand offers the best possible Spell Damage implicit. Its a little worse then hyriis ire in terms of evasion but a lot cheaper. Fingerless Silk Gloves are the best choice, as Spell Damage scales all of our skills directly. Is this an acceptable Weapon for this one as well? Witchfire Brew can be swapped in for some situations, such as Delving or bossing. The new Legion Jewels present a variety of unique opportunities to augment your build in powerful but unpredictable ways. You definitely can. The challenge rewards are out! Does anyone know where to find this craft recipe? We dont notice the movement speed as much with this build since its already insanely fast, but it doesnt hurt. Since there are few curses to deal with while Delving, and none to deal with while engaging Uber Elder or Shaper, this makes it ideal for such situations. I like Hyrri's Ire personally, as it gives the highest Evasion and Energy Shield and doesnt require any reconfiguring of the rest of the build (i.e.

was planning whispers of doom once i get two golden oils, but now that im ditching temp chains probably just keeping herbalism. Thanks for this great build, it really helps me alot with moderate/low cost to enjoy my play style type. Sorcerer Boots or Slink Boots are both fine alternatives.

Hey Exiles, Not only is the Energy Shield itself very valuable, but it also adds 5 Evasion Rating per 1 Energy Shield due t our Escape Artist passive. Stay tuned for updates! Tomor Hey Exiles! Here is an example of the wand that Furtys character crafted for the Legion Solo Self-Found League: Until you can afford to get a nice multi-modded Opal Wand, you should instead use any wand you can find with % to Non-Ailment Chaos Damage over Time Multiplier, % Increased Cast Speed, and % Increased Spell Damage. Wondering if youre going to recommend the +3 ED bow like i see in other guides or stick with the wand/shield combo. I tried to crafting the Wand but I realised, that Non-alignment cd Otto dies mit existenziellen anymore since 3.8. As long as it is an Energy Shield base, it is a fine choice for your helmet. Drop Malevolence from the link that also has Despair and Flesh and Stone, replacing it with Blasphemy Support. Prioritize the affixes as follows: Any other useful stats you can find or make use of, such as Resistances, are perfectly fine Onslaught is by far the most important and it is worth using a Jewel with that and nothing else if necessary.

Prioritize stats as follows: Any other useful mods you find or can make use of are perfectly fine to round out your Jewels. I have a question, if we play with Impresence (Chaos) and Blasphemy Support linked with Despair so is there any utility to use Witchfire Brew for delving ? Iam Ding t13 atm without Probst waiting for higher tier maps. Last edited by shiftnative on Oct 18, 2020, 1:19:55 PM. They are extremely cheap, offer a grotesque amount of Evasion, and have widely available Enchantments on trade leagues.

I was able to do Uber Awakener without real issues using the advised setup but the gear also has to be good, as damage will be pretty low without proper Jewels. Once you get to Depths of 239+ (Monster Level 83) you will want to start employing the Granite Flask, as Monsters begin to deal very high Physical damage. Prioritize stats as follows: Impresence (Chaos) can be an exceptional choice for this build and allows you to fit Blasphemy Support into your build for free. Actually just unspecd it a few minutes ago, trying to find something to replace temp chains so came to ask about the same thing so far ive tried (mostly unlevelled) frost nova, frost bomb, chaos golem, skeletons, soul rend, flame surge, summon skulls so far soul rend is pretty nice even at level 3, im just hanging out in Channel letting things hit me, and that looks like it would clear a pack afk if it was levelled up. Not only does this neck offer good survivability from the Chaos Resistance, Maximum Life, and Maddening Presence (Slows enemies and reduces their damage by 10%, respectively), but it also has an exceptional damage increasing component. Its a veiled mod, so you might not have it unlocked if you havent done a fair amount of Syndicate. I am having trouble with which body i should go for and since id ont have 1 my dps is low and survivability is crap. It will hurt your clear speed and defense a bit, but its definitely a viable alternative choice that you can make use of. With 3.9 having a rather big focus on boss killing is there an update coming for the gear section or we still trying to kill them with multimodded wands? Hello Check the Rings section below for more information on how to best facilitate this. Crafted wands are superior for this build, and can be done yourself if you have enough of the Syndicate recipes unveiled. I am capping my resistances all 80%+ even chaos 75% (tree nodes + ring + socket jewels) Head over to the crafting bench and: Congratulations, your wand is done! on getting something more useful maybe whisper of doom i dont know what would be the best there for about 5 remaining skill points. Since we definitely want an of Reflexes flask (as this causes our Ghost Dance to fully replenish our Energy Shield every time we lose a Ghost Shroud), using Witchfire Brew would force us to choose between an of Warding and of Heat Flask, both of which are very valuable to survival. Prioritize stats as follows: The Stun enchant is slightly more valuable if you are using a lower Evasion chest, as you are more likely to have your Energy Shield broken before a Ghost Shroud tops it off, and therefore susceptible to stuns (you are immune while you have Energy Shield). Another league reveal last night and well we are super excited to see what GGG th +# to socketed AoE Gems / % Increased Area of Effect (Crafted Socket your, % Increased Damage During Soul Gain Prevention Period (Crafted), % Increased Evasion and Energy Shield (depends on choice of base), +# to Maximum Energy Shield (or Evasion depends on choice of base), 16% increased Attack and Cast Speed if youve Killed Recently, 8% chance to Dodge Spell Hits if youve taken Spell Damage Recently, 10% Chance to Dodge Attack Hits if youve taken a Critical Strike Recently, 80% chance to Avoid being Stunned if youve Killed Recently, If there are 2 or 3 stats on the item , use an, +1 to the Level of Socketed Chaos Gems (socket your, +# to Maximum Energy Shield / Maximum Life, % Increased Effect of Flasks on You (Crafted), % Increased Damage over Time while Holding a Shield, % Increased Movement Speed if Youve Killed Recently, +(18-22)% to Non-Ailment Chaos Damage over Time Multiplier while affected by, (20-30)% increased Skill Effect Duration while affected by, Gain (12-18)% of Maximum Mana as Extra Maximum Energy Shield while affected by, % Increased Spell Damage while Holding a Shield, % to Non-Ailment Chaos Damage over Time Multiplier.
