Can't imagine how having 0 lightning pen in this setup vs bosses makes sense, you even pick up inc ele damage nodes over it with threaded light... hell even having some source of lightning exposure would probably go a long way
it is a very good build for bosses.but i am having a bit trouble playing it while maping.u said Middle mouse is bound to move minions,then bound the middle mouse to side mouse button,why not just bound the side mouse to move minions directly?i am currently using mouse 4 to move minions,but somehow i feel a bit opps,and the mouse has to close to the minions to detonate it.i thought it would just choose the closest corpse to detonate.just feel very uncomfortable for maping.something wrong with my seting?
Have you got trees and gear setups for like coming straight out of campaign like on a SSF budget to mid-game to obviously this as the end-game build....just basically a natural progresion priotizing the the most important pieces etc b4 you land on this?
"This build would work well on other ascendancies as well, probably even better on one that could take CI." Which ones exactly did you have in mind? Would you still go for crit? Wouldn't that make it much harder to cap?
Id go for infernalist for a CI version, yes it'll be harder to crit cap but eye of winter makes the difference not as large (25% base crit on blood mage vs 18% otherwise). Blood Mage is probably the best in terms of raw DPS but infernalist is probably tankier
@@Kelsera I see. Altered Flesh and Loyal Hellhound should give some additional def-layers. But what about the others? Since CI Blocks Beidat and Demon Form, only Grinning Immolation and Pyro Pact left? Have to look into them, no idea what exactly they benefit for us
@@zoddel1897yeah just immolation last, there's only 3 nodes that really work with ci. But bloodmage also really only has the crit nodes, the bleed node is whatever. I don't think you can do pyro pact, infernalist builds I've seen usually just take 2 small nodes last
@@Kelsera Interesting, didnt think about NOT taken 4 big nodes. Thx for the Input. SInce im trying many different builds atm in poe2 to get a feeling, thinking about testing this here maybe next. Just not sure if bm or infernalist version yet.
sure, right now its doing 14+million crits, so without crit itll be ~3-4 million. But you also get to invest in other things on the tree so youll probably be a bit tankier and get the numbers up to 5~mill. I'd probably recommend infernalist if going for a HC version though, since you can go CI. Theres a version on the pathofexilebuilds subreddit from a few days ago someone was running
It requires a large amount of spirit, especially the archmage version. I wouldn't swap to this build until you have ~250 spirit, and just do a non-archmage non-crit version at first
If you invest more into energy shield and less into damage yes, also need to get some of the ES as stun threshold passives It's a little rough since the mobs dont spawn corpses, so you have to have really good uptime on your minions. Best to use warriors here probably, and have a lot of clerics. will need a lot of spirit. I cleared the 3 difficulties pretty easily, havent tried harder ones
Please tell me why you have more spirit than subjects, about 100 and whether there is a difference what the second wand will be or it should be the same as your main one, just in the guide on maxroll there is no second panel.

@@lordvaldus839 Pretty sure weapon sets cant allocate keystones, but EB does work if you use the atziris disdain helm since that ES doesnt get converted, so you can stay kind of tanky
Archmage isn't doing much for you. You only have 1800 mana, nor do you have the nodes on tree that really help make archmage shine. You are essentially wasting 100 spirit lol.
Archmage with 1800 mana gives 160% damage as extra lightning, over doubling the dps of the build plus letting it shock without requiring much investment. Since I'm using threaded light to scale generic spell damage it doesn't matter what damage type I'm dealing so the lightning is just as good as phys Scaling mana further would help, but it's not as effective to scale one multiplier super high instead of getting a bunch of multipliers. Since I'm also able to scale damage on the tree with crit and minion life its better to go for those nodes on the tree and just get mana from items For example, I could take EB to get another 900 mana, but that would only be another 40%ish damage at the cost of 5000 energy shield (10k with grim) which with the amount of damage I already have isn't worth it But yes I could get a lot more mana on some beach rings etc too with more investment
@@dioxy1 its fine as long as I have some clerics, and if you dont have a lot of damage its not that bad to wait for a respawn if you dont quite manage to one shot it imo. Plus the focus makes you do so much more damage that you need less detonations anyway

Hello, nice build. What points do you have for the ascendency ?
Both crit nodes, last point is whatever you want. I'm taking the bleed node
"This build would work well on other ascendancies as well, probably even better on one that could take CI."

Is there any play to try this on chromancer?
im confused about your jewels. Does Increase critical damage bonus apply to DD? I thought only Critical SPELL DMG works on it.
In this game they are the same.
how da hell do you get up to 70K Minionlife on Brutes? Even without +max life juwels. is it really just the +skills?
Yeah the + minion levels really does boost their hp
Yo, can you pls tell me how did u get +1 level from helmet ?
on craft of exile there is no +1 thing on corrupt or somethin

Do you think this build will have enough damage if you completely ignore crit and go more mana/minion life? planning for hc build

How much is your Focus contributing to that 10m dps?
@@Ququestion without it I would lose probably 70% dps since it's my main source of generic spell damage
Are the jewels easily farmable or did you just buy them?
bought
Is the build able to league start?
It requires a large amount of spirit, especially the archmage version. I wouldn't swap to this build until you have ~250 spirit, and just do a non-archmage non-crit version at first
Hi, do you think it is possible to create the same build on infernalist ?
Yep, except id go for CI. check the reddit post on the pathofexilebuilds subreddit from a few days ago, someone has an infernalist version on there
without demonflame abuse will amost certainly be worse, and with it you can run anything / better clear spells.
what if no corpse around boss?
the sacrifice aura lets you use your minions as corpses for detonate dead
@@Kelsera you mean soul offering create a corpse? what if this corpse get consumed
Hi, is this build can be viable for simulacrum complete?
If you invest more into energy shield and less into damage yes, also need to get some of the ES as stun threshold passives
It's a little rough since the mobs dont spawn corpses, so you have to have really good uptime on your minions. Best to use warriors here probably, and have a lot of clerics. will need a lot of spirit.

Archamge is very OP at the moment and every single spell casting build should run it. It will get nerfed heavily though at some point.
