Hey everyone, I added a POB for a blood magic setup. TBH, after spending a few hours on the pros and cons of blood magic for traditional mana I think I'm gonna league start my blood magic setup. The cons of blood magic? Losing two auras - having to switch between pride / determination for bossing - pathing is a little weird having to go for blood magic. The pros of blood magic? No concern for mana - no mana problems ever - better damage by saving passive points from aura / reservation effects - more socket freedom - can link urgent orders in to save even more passive points - going blood magic grants access to better fortify notable - better leech potential. All in all, the mana issues by themselves is making me go blood magic to start. Everything else is exactly the same, the sockets / links / tree just differs a bit, thats it. pobb.in/Hns3kBqBNA0N
Great guide man and thanks for including chieftan, I guess all these questions will be cleared out later on and hope we see some new build variations this leage!
Hey bro, thanks so much I checked out his video. So glad that my instinct was right about it, I really want to do SST or Shield Crush bleed as a second build but I might try a Chieftain variant instead now.
Yeah i was looking at eternal apple to automate 3 warcries with the overpowered buffs with warcry buff effect. Then use 3 automated warcries just for the attack exerts. This way you dont have to press piano any warcry haha. With the exert support gem and echoes of creation helm should be a cool build
It’s a great idea, I’m actually really higher on chieftain now compared to initially after going over the numbers. I’m determined to make a Tect / Volcanic fissure Chieftain work now lol
Alright, I wanted a bonk build so I'm probably gonna settle on this one. Couple questions: Endgame setup, where is all the phys mitigation coming from to stop us from killing ourselves with Echoes of Creation? Is autoexerting with Slayer feasible? It's in the Zerker version on your trees but not Slayer. I figured autoexerting all the other warcries to stack up both Overexertion and EoC damage would be worth it no matter what. Hella socket starved so I'm not sure how to fit that in though. Never bonked before.
The idea is that with 5 endurance charges - armor buffs - determination - warning call on a cluster jewel setup late game ( I haven’t figured out a good tree to incorporate a cluster jewel yet, my apologies) you’ll have plenty of phys mitigation to handle echoes of creation damage. It also helps greatly that we’re not Vaal pact and constantly leeching. Slayer will have a much better time dealing with echoes than zerker. Auto exerting is absolutely feasible, I just don’t think if you play earthshatter you should auto exert, play another slam skill. I have some auto exert setups for zerker where I think it’s much better there. Overexertion is def mandatory and EoC also when able to get it. You might want to look into a blood magic setup I added a POB for that as well. Blood magic we don’t even lose that much damage but do lose some survivability. BM fees up a bunch of passives and sockets.
@@Mdntech3000 Cool, thanks for the answers! If Autoexerting the remaining warcries is less ideal than just using Pride then this seems like a pretty straightforward rotation for handling tanky rares/bosses. One other question--think it's ideal to spec into spell suppression by endgame for this build? You have an optional tree for it, curious if you think suppress is necessary for late game or if the build is tanky enough as is and can get away spending points elsewhere.
@@Deathborn668 Autoexerting is always less than ideal but that's by design. You lose mana reservation and the buff effect but save clicks so the option is up to the user. Yea, I try my best to explain the "rotation" as best I can because it really does matter for Earthshatter. Spell suppression is def needed for some uber bosses (looking at you shaper) but until I get to that point I'll stick with my blood magic focused tree.
I got 2 questions ( i just got the POB ) are you going to keep Berserk in the blood rage set up after the nurfs and there is a Ancestral Warchief in the wep set up. Looks like a fun build im excited to give it a shot on LL thanks for the up load !!
Yea I wish we had more points for more leech. If you saw my last video, I recommend playing non earth shatter and automating warcries which is why I mention the zerker park. Automating warcries isn’t even that bad mana cost, hope your league start goes well!
I rolled zizarans/carns ground slam slayer ans it feels great but clicking every warcry is hard. I dont want to play with autoexertion, i wanted to learn how to play piano build but every player i check, even carn, play with autoexertion and i dont know if there is a point to stick to selfcast.
Same here - it was OK leveling but once I had to keep the warcries up all the time when the doodoo hit the fan it was just a drag. I play the game for 1-2hrs at night to try to calm down and it was having the inverse effect ;P. Going to go with autoexertion.. briefly debated on re-spec'ing as a SST or similar slayer but I've invested so many passive nodes.
@@Mdntech3000 than you take no buffs, and ppl that use macros laught at you. edit : But it goes against the rules of GGG and I strongly assume that this is exactly why many players will be banned from this league again. We've had that before... I just can't understand why GGG is doing it again.

6:45 this part is exactly what I was looking for, cheers!
Agreed - thank you Jeebus.
I'm coming back after 7 years, I'm picking this build. Thanks youtube recommended
Enjoy!
Nice video! And yes warcry buff effect does do those crazy things. Dreamcore posted a video about that
If so, then chieftan is honestly pretty insane.

I’m not bothering using berserk, better off staying at high rage.
Nice video! I've a question, this POB can be use with other slam skills like earthquake or sunder? Or it's only made for Earthshatter? Ty!
It can absolutely be used with other spam skills! You’ll just have to adjust a few things.
thx for making this video, it really helps.
Glad to help, if you ever have any questions let me know
Great video! very informational
Thanks a bunch I appreciate it!
Loving your info about the slams. For zerker what is your opinion on Ground slam vs Sunder?
I would go ground slam, think Zerker ground slam will be great. The auto war cry version though.
very good video, im planning a similar build, but with a semi auto warcry. I also tend to take the ias/life leech node (lust for carnage).
Yea I wish we had more points for more leech. If you saw my last video, I recommend playing non earth shatter and automating warcries which is why I mention the zerker park.
Automating warcries isn’t even that bad mana cost, hope your league start goes well!
Thank you for the video Negron Tech. The new season is sick
Im thinking of running Zerker, however I wanted to know why you dont opt for Blood Magic when using zerker like when you do with slayer?
I haven’t came up with a blood magic tree for zerker yet. It’d be similar to slayer though.
Will you be updating the automated berserker version for 3.25? Maybe put a link for it in the description of this video too? :)
What are you looking for the auto mated berserker setup? I added a tree and gem setup for it in the POB
@Mdntech3000 ah yes my mistake, thank you
insta like and subscribe! Thanks a lot for slams and warcries videos. I finally found someone with the same level of interest for slams build
I have an unhealthy love with slams and melee in POE lol
Thanks
i liked that slayer build so much but man without autoexertion its piano to click can we add that to slayer i dont want zerker over slayer?
You can definitely do that, just drop an aura!
I rolled zizarans/carns ground slam slayer ans it feels great but clicking every warcry is hard. I dont want to play with autoexertion, i wanted to learn how to play piano build but every player i check, even carn, play with autoexertion and i dont know if there is a point to stick to selfcast.
Hey, I still cast 2 - 3 warcries depending on the situation. Uploading a new video as we speak talking about warcrying.
Same here - it was OK leveling but once I had to keep the warcries up all the time when the doodoo hit the fan it was just a drag. I play the game for 1-2hrs at night to try to calm down and it was having the inverse effect ;P.

@Dino55316 check out my newest video to see my setup. I’m using auto exert now.
@@Mdntech3000 Sweet!
does 100% chance to ignore enemy phys defense not worth it? Bastion Breaker + its Mastery
In POB more max phys damage was showing more dps which is why I took it.
Does each spike also add impales?
Yes! That’s why impale is great with earthshatter. One earthshatter will reliably get three impales up on an enemy.
@@Mdntech3000 cool that makes sense thanks
War cry❤
I'm going berserker just for the fantasy of it 😂
Berserker is great too just a bit squishy.
Could you share the outfit mtx in town? 7:59
It’s the new supporter pack, the blue one I don’t remember the name off the top of my head.
@@Mdntech3000 thanks!
warcries should be max 3 active
We always have 3 warcries up
too many clicks :(
Lmao there are too many clicks, I added some auto exert setups though if you don’t wanna press warcries.
yes its nothing better than playing piano or use macros .... no sorry.
Who doesn't use macros in 2024 bro get good
I added auto exert setups guys 👍
@@Gostooo666 nah saying get good to not using macros is crazy
@@Gostooo666 newbie, macro using = skill hahaha . i hope you get banned.
@@Mdntech3000 than you take no buffs, and ppl that use macros laught at you. edit : But it goes against the rules of GGG and I strongly assume that this is exactly why many players will be banned from this league again. We've had that before... I just can't understand why GGG is doing it again.
