I find niche interactions in PoE and package them into builds through the power of rigorous analysis and infinite currency.
The goal of my channel is to not only show you HOW mechanics and builds work, but more importantly explain WHY so that you can expand on my ideas and incorporate them into your own builds.

My fastest build has basically no movement speed - Leapfrog Zombie Bomber build [3.25]
Bodyswap of Sacrifice destroys a minion to create a AoE explosion with base damage proportional to minion life. Stack minion life and gem levels on Raise Zombies to get ~60k *base* damage on Bodyswap. Remove the need for corpses with Aukuna’s Will, trigger Raise Zombies with Poet’s Pen, and trigger Bodyswap with Spellslinger. Stack “increased cooldown recovery rate for movement skills” on the passive tree and using frenzy charges with Replica Badge of the Brotherhood. With some additional generic cooldown recovery (Like Clockwork), the trigger rate for both skills gets to the 5.05 triggers/second threshold. Pick whatever wand attack you want, hold down the attack button, and warp around w...

“We have Flicker Strike at home” - 4.3 trigger/sec Bodyswap of Sacrifice meme build

Bodyswap of Sacrifice can be used to detonate SRS of Enormities (who have high base life) for large base fire damage. The summon/detonate process can be automated by socketing both skills in an axe with “trigger socketed fire spells on hit.” Rage Vortex of Berserking can be used as the delivery skill to trigger both spells, alternating, each more than 4 times per second resulting in a “flicker-...
+50 Max Rage: how to cheese Vengeful Cry for powerful buffs in PoE

TLDW - Rage good. New retaliation warcry gives max rage but it’s not usable by default. However, you can design a character that will deal itself a self-damage guaranteed savage hit with Forbidden Rite, unlocking Vengeful Cry for use any time, at will. It’s then straightforward to get 100% uptime by using warcry duration and CDR and amp up the power of the max rage buff with warcry buff effect....
Cast while Staticky: new spell trigger tech in Settlers league for “almost - autobombers”

Static Strike beams count as weapon damage and can be used to proc the runecrafting enchant "trigger a socketed fire spell on hit." This enables the automatic triggering of ~4 spells per second by hitting a single enemy and then running through packs. By scaling skill effect duration, you can extend the length of the Static Energy buff for a "semi-autobomber" playstyle. In this video I explain ...

[PoE 3.22] - Triggerbot Eye of Winter Assassin - Build Guide Teaser Trailer
Absolutely love this format, great job man! On a topic of mathematically-correct builds I'd die twice for your analysis (or maybe just broad thoughts) of CoC+discharge engine in the current patch.
Didn't understand brand recall, thanks for the explaination!
did you consider cold to fire support together with avatar of fire (youre pathing nearby)? that opens up cold gems for you
Can you do a build using bodyswap and totems please?
Tota theme makes everything so much more epic. Goosebumps everytime I hear it. Easy like. Also great build. How bad is it when it comes to performance? Would like to see full uninterrupted map run with it.
I was really interested in trying this build but didnt take in mind that i am playing on console so it just feels janky as i cant click really where i want to go. Is there any fix to this?
Sorry, not that I’m aware of. I have no experience with console/controller.
You can also use one handed axe that removes int completely from you in the weapon swap so the boots will naturally fall off. This is very niche I must say as every thing that requires int on you will get disabled.
Is it possible to trigger zombie with second spellslinger? As we could grab minion wand with+2 and socket zombie into like gloves with +2 minion gems and +1 socketed gems with empower in it
No, you need the lower base cooldown from Poets Pen (0.25sec vs 0.6sec) to match Zombie and Bodyswap CDR. Bodyswap gets a bunch of movement skill CDR but that doesn’t apply to zombies so it’s cooldown would be more than 2x as long as
@@Surgeon_General Thanks for reply
Hey, since they changed the unique amulet in this build - now you can no longer gain charges it sounds like, would you recommend changing amulets? If so what would you consider?
Still works 3.25?
The mechanics still work but mana cost reduction was changed (inspiration support) so you have to find a way to deal with mana cost.
“The build is an… acquired taste.” >shows us a PowerPoint presentation
Now imagine a PVP fight between this and a flicker strike build, would feel like an epic anime fight
Thanks for sharing your build. Am more down to earth and after removing all the expensive items like mageblood, saboteur jewel, voices, hubris with 3Xminion life and a non lv100 char, zombie life drops to 150k-ish and bodyswap is hitting 1.5mil 4 times so 6mil dps, which probably can be put together under 50div. Just for info.
Will the "spell skill area of effect" wheel near the top-right of the tree effect Bodyswap of Sacrifice minion explosion?
Hi, its work with triggerbots (saboteur)? Because pob show + 14mln DPS with triggerbots... for BS
how to craft a helmet?
Fracture +2 minion skills. Essence of Loathing spam until acceptable suffixes. Eldritch chaos/exalt until acceptable prefixes. Finish implicits
Hi. I'm not understand. U collect cooldown for bodyswap, its trigger rate cap 5.05 in sec. But Spellsinger rate is 1,68, and than BS trigger rate is 1,68. Why collect cooldown than?
From PoB notes: “Bodyswap of Sacrifice effective trigger rate isn't calculated correctly by PoB. It thinks the spellslinger cooldown blocks the trigger which isn't the case.” 1.68 is the cooldown rate for activating the spellslinger skill itself. Once it’s turned on, its cooldown doesn’t matter, only the cooldown of the spell that it’s triggering
Well done @Surgeon_General. I'll raise you another challenge when it comes to cooldowns. Can you sync the 28 falling zombies from a recalled arcanist brand with a warcry utilizing kaoms command helmet?
As a CoC-Dark Pact enjoyer, I really love this build. Minion life scaling for dmg is so cool. Also the maligaros lens interaction, just wow!
Amazing..i always wonder how much of this stuff GGG thought could be possible when adding stuff to the game lol. And i just looted my first forbidden (a spellbreaker) today :D
Looks super innovative and nearly globally effective. .... time to find a character slot...XD
also great delivery, format and editing. cohesive, detail-oriented explanation, thanks for the video
I find it cool to see what is possible when it comes to combination making, however what i don't like is that it always leads to changing of certain items. This is what people always should keep in mind. They're destroying it for everyone just for their 5 seconds of fame.
What does this even mean? Are you upset I’m showcasing underused uniques?
How about tempest shield's arc for the triggering
"More base damage than a 48 charge Discharge" I'm sold.
u sound very professional, same as your presentation. very nicely done. as of build its very cool mashup and synergy of couple of very unique mechanics. did something similar with Lightning Warp couple of times in the past, it was nice way to learn about more advanced part of the game. knowledge is power, and in this game that also means more fun. once again, well done.
Why not marionettes?
Respawn time nerfed to 4 sec post-Affliction
Maligaros lense recovery with petrified blood and progenesis seems slightly strong no?
Yes, insanely. If I weren’t hybrid life/ES trickster that’s the way I’d go. Having half of my HP as ES really reduces the effectiveness of PB though.
@@Surgeon_General my first thought was to play ignite chieftan with splodeys and 90 max res.
Getting cdr is far more difficult as chieftan but it matters less for ignite and chieften has alot of ok options for scaling dmg/defense
i'm sorry but this is giving me eye cancer, i dont think i can play something like that XD
Sadly I refuse to give Poet's Pen, made by open racist and misogynist Chris Kluwe(less), any publicity.
what is bro on
Imagine if this worked with Raise zombies of Falling. Would be epic.
Me love wonky builds. Keep the videos comin!!
Flicker strike but screen cluster mess and without the smooth animation pretty much xD
Look 3.23 Frost blink of wintery blast. Look at what they have to do to imitate just a fraction of our power. I'm just sad GGG always kills all the fun builds...
could probably fit in Perfect Dark Marionette
I've been playing and browsing POE content since OG Closed Beta dude and I just want to parrot a few other comments man: Your presentation and style is top notch and is not only creative but extremely informative and engaging. The small clips of the ability are not distracting from the information being presented but adds much appreciated visual representation, clarity, and engaging demonstrations to what you are explaining. The build is awesome and super creative but your editing is literally top-tier man.
Now this is why I follow your channel. This is exactly my kind of ridiculous engineering. Some questions: - Is the CDR from Like Clockwork better than the double trigger from Triggerbots? I assume it probably is since the 35% less damage multiplier from Perfect Crime is a pretty hefty hit. It might be entertaining with SRS of Enormity though, since IIRC they should be summoned on the Triggerbots instead of on you! - What about Raise Zombie of Falling? I'd guess the quadratic life scaling per level on the non-transfigured gem probably outweighs having a free glove slot? - You could probably get insane poison scaling from this, maybe even uber dot-capped. The only way I can think of to convert the damage though would be Original Sin or some sort of ridiculously convoluted combo of the Inextricable Fate boots, Grasping Nightshade tincture, and the Warden's Seasoned Hunter node, so that's a bit silly.
Poison variant of this build is like explody totems all over again... i'm interested
@@chriskim8022 better start grinding for that Original Sin then lol
- I ruled out Triggerbots early so I don’t have numbers for you, but the big problem is mana costs. The base cost for minions is so high and reduced mana cost was gutted over the last three leagues. I can barely afford mana in this setup, no shot with Triggerbots. You *could* lifetap everything and be ok with Maligaros lens but it seemed bad to me on a hybrid life/es setup. - I did not test RZoF because I was strictly looking to maximize life. It’s possible RZoF is actually better. - Volkurs Guidance is an option. You’d probably want to use SRSoE and maybe just cyclone CoC since you can’t warp as well with it.
I wonder how this could be made more manual (as in you actually raise the zombie). How does a triggered bodyswap of sacrifice work with triggerbots? Also one thing in the defenses section. This build is perfect for using Artic Armour as a defensive layer, you are always stationary when it matters so your uptime in the phys&fire mitigation is very high.
What the fuck you have created
ok you baited me in . wish me luck
This video is so well put together it deserves to be on build of the week
Looks like a laggy flicker to me
Yikes, new tier of stat padding, assuming +4 from poets pen (i.e. lvl 100)...
Kinetic bolt? Why not kb of clustering that thing is super op this league.
Probably doesn’t matter as virtually no weapon damage and I don’t think there’s any # of proj scaling but power siphon for cull on bosses might be viable
Love this! Now which one of you bastards is sniping the forbidden jewels lol
another tech I've been playing around : archmage ignite frostblink of wintry blast using Stormfire for the ignite and maybe as chieftain (or some sort of marauder) for the ignite prolif from the explosions. definitely jank, probably would be better with just regular frostblink and bronn (aka hotstepper), or just archmage frostblink and some sort of explosion prolif.
old tech that I had but never made : wardless wardloop using stasis prison, you're using scold's bridle to hit yourself, and get like 35k life recoup.
I would love to see you play around with "perma ward". I'v seen someone using insane amounts of mana/life burn stacks from tinctures (~1500k), combined with the mastery that grants 1% inc flask charges gained per mana burn and an iron flask with gain 3 charges when hit. Effectively letting you recover ward every time you are hit. Would be cool to see this implemented in a functional build if thats even possible.
Palsteron made a functional perma ward character, although the mechanics are very different to what you are describing.
@@John.A.D yea I've seen Pal's version and it seems pretty strong. I was just curious if there were other ways to make a perma ward character and I stumbled upon the tech I described. My brain is just too small to piece together an actual build :D
I love your concise videomaking style - wish I had this when I was making videos; looking back in comparison mine seems scattered and stream-of-consciousness. GJ, you deserve more subs!
Please cover power siphon + barrage single target
Reminds me of the Frostblink of Wintry Blast Poet's Pen builds from 3.23, except with Bodyswap, which seems more janky at first, but definitely seems to deliver much better damage. It feels like zombies are now more often used as tools to enable other builds than as typical necro minions. Truly PoE building at its finest. 👌
