Wow! I really love the explanation of showcasing why this and that is important, amazing job looking forward to start with frost blades warden and adjust it to my playstyle! :o
@@noiseisgold3n42As always with FB the defenses are more than just the resistances, suppress + pierce + 1 or 2 hit additional targets + freeze off screen + attk speed. It has NEVER been a build that has a lot of life, +3K life is already a luxury
@@Buggolious I'm aware, I'm purely mentioning it because the max hit you can survive is very low. Also, I have no doubt he can pilot it excellently given his delve record.
We are running Aurabot Scion with FB Warden in our GSF League. This guide is practical the same we build it. Just we take Purity of Elements on the Carry, so i have much more freedom about my aruas in the leauge start. i am excited to see how fast you can progress in your gsf league and how fast we are. GL on start
YT decided not to push a notification for this video. Guess what, didn’t matter… been manually going into your channel for the last few days to look for this every morning when I wake up and lookie here! Can’t believe Im this hyped to league start the same build a fifth time but warden mega freeze is gonna be really interesting to see in action. Would’ve liked a small segment on why you chose the ascendancy points you did, maybe for a later video? Will be really interesting to see if tinctures are worth pivoting into after the reddit post from the guy who showcased 100% uptime tinctures on warden.
This is your best pob so far btw, so many good notes and reasoning in there. I’ve played FB every league since your first guide for it and this is definitely the most detailed pob so far.
This is the build I wanted for Warden! As soon as i saw it also love the physical aspect for the claw to still use hatred. That lightning damage looked really low but it only need 2% so hope I s good enough.
Thanks Zish. Can't wait to leaguestart this monster yet again. Probably going to have a even more enjoyable time from act 6 and all the way up to T17's. Great guide as always.
Oh boy, i really had a blast with this build in 3.22 where i did 38/40 challenges. Might go at it again in this melee league. Also remember to add quality to your weapons while leveling as it is now multiplicative to the damage and is a nice boost early on.
for starting shield good option for 1-2 day to find/cheap buy dd or ele damage bases from trade, with as it's so HUGE upgrade..) you can jump to mapping with white wind if have struggle with claw pandemonius is good option for amulet circle of fear with flat/% cold/% buff is good dmg option too you can go for cold explosure on your gloves as option and action speed for boots
The Taming got buffed and is there is absolutely no Circle of Fear implicit good enough to beat it anymore - can't recommend. A 40% Taming will be 240% damage + 30-40 all res...unbeatable. Pandemonius is OK. I think Pierce is required, so you'd have to get it on a prefix, and exposure implicit just saves you from using Frost Bomb if you can't be bothered to press that button.
@@ZishPOE and bro acually you level this build on lighting arrow without any problems ..) your mirage archer saves you a bit of time on getting exp while zoom th acts, and it's leveling tree almost same as fb ..) imho
Made it to Act 10 today and so far I’m killing most things exceptionally fast. Feel a little squishy at times but enjoying the build thus far. Looking forward to maps tomorrow.
Yeah, it seems like it would pretty much stay the same. But your losing totems, which for the most part, losing a distraction. Because melee scaling is supposed to make up for damage. It would seem gems are mostly interchangible with warden, and skill tree from previous leagues would stay the same.
at 10:27 my thought was: "Ohhh god pls stop, i cant take notes this fast" but luckily its from a Note in PoB lol, probably startin FB this league thanks for the awesome PoB and work!
Hey Zish, are you willing to release a Trickster PoB this league? You don't have to update it. I haven't played for two leagues and I want to play FB again
I probably won't release anything for Trickster - but it would also probably be the exact same as before minus totems and add new gems of choice. The core of the build wouldn't change much or at all.
This is definitely a SC only build, it's extremely squishy. Rue's FB of Katabasis Slayer is probably what you want unless you (or Zish) can tweak the trickster POB for this patch from last.
So you mentioned Act 1-2 can be tough. I did an act 1-5 practice run. Not too bad, I think it is worth mentioning that frost bomb can help with Oak's regen. Then as you said, if you can deal with Piety, and get Trinity, its a lovely time after that. Excited to try the Warden. Lower life and less physical damage as... definitely concerning though.
Frost Bomb is a Library gem for Ranger, unfortunately, so you won't have it for Oak in A2 - but yea it gets smooth real quick, just have to suffer like 1-2 hours.
Instead of 2H at the start, I go directly to Life Raker and get the 25 life/mana gain on hit. Thats 22% IAS and 6 + 25 life per every other hit and 6hp + 25mp per hit on the other hits...Can face tank most of the campaign from there on.
1:55 Why do you have no mana reserved? Also, do you have zero ES because of blood rage degen? I wanted to do a hybrid with escape artist with the new bases
It is reserved, you can see the 600-something number reserved - it's a setting in options that doesn't show reserved mana. Might be helpful for this league to track Tincture Mana Burn more easily. Zero ES because no ES gear.
question about vaal pact, where are you getting life recovery from when there are no mobs and you have a dot on you? i died probably 10-15 times leveling from 95-96 strictly because i had no way to stop a dot effect. is it just max ele avoidance, which i don't have atm, or is there something i'm missing here?
Vaal Pact is totally optional - you need ailment immunity and CB immunity at a minimum to use it IMO - if you don't like it, don't use it. You need to be able to actively manage your blood rage with weapon-swapping also.
@@ZishPOE thanks. i'm working on ailment immunity now. i didn't realize swapping weapons removed blood rage that's an easy fix, i was just not using it.
Thanks for the guide! Quick question, I’ve got the mana reservation and charisma wheel, yet, I can’t activate all of the aura’s at once, not sure what I’ve missed.
Partial bait. This is a fun build with plenty of damage, but defense is damn low late maps. Definitely don't bother unless you've got plenty of currency or want a fun alt. Yellows and bosses just devour you once freeze ends, it's bad.
I think the elemental mastery to invert resistances is better than oath of summer. Oath will get you to -10, while the inversion will get you to -50. Unless there's some other interaction I'm missing. I guess it's the 25% chance that makes scorch better..maybe?
I'm finally gonna league start this! Looking forward to it. However, as a not-so-strong player, I would really appreciate if the leveling section was a little bit more in-depth. Perhaps there are other sources that could help me specifically for this build?
I'm not sure about specifically, but there's lots of generic leveling tip stuff out there about zone-reading, portal shortcuts, skips, etc - the early acts are tough, I can't really sugar-coat that. GL!
@@ZishPOE Thank you for the answer. I should have been more specific - I don't really mean generic leveling tips, I meant something like leveling tree progression for this specific build, that would be the most helpful one I guess. And I'll also need to check the Trinity more, I'm not very familiar with its mechanics. Anyway thanks for the build, looking forward to play tomorrow!
@@DavePaddy There's leveling trees in the POB - but the early points are all very flexible, you can take them in any order you prefer - I like to prioritize additional strike ->> leech -> attack speed
I'm a bit apprehensive with the 30k ehp WITH steelskin enabled. It is 17k EHP without it enabled. Even on week one gear, the EHP is 28k without steelskin, 3.8k max phys hit. Thoughts?
What do you think of Vengeant cascade as annointment for this build ? Wouldn t speed up shock stacks while doubling dmg ? sorry if it is a dumb question
No, Vengeant Cascade is just Proj Speed - it doesn't make your projectiles return, and even if it did FB doesn't shotgun, so it wouldn't be a great choice anyway.
Appreciate the build guide! Hope it will be smooth as always with your FB builds. Will you possibly share your atlas plans (I know that FB is almost an all-rounder, but wanna hear your thoughts)?
I've just finished the campaign. From Act 4 onwards it was a cake, very easy progression, fun to play. I've got two more questions: 1) Swap to precision and grace - I've taken all the mana res. nodes from Day 1, but unreserved mana is very low, barely able to do anything. Can we perhaps resolve this with some anoint? Or any other ideas? *EDIT* - maybe I'll simply try to craft some mana on gear and see the difference, or just take 2 mana nodes temporarily until I get Enlighten support 2) Ele dmg on weapon - I will still be running trinity for some time as Heatshiver is quite pricy right now. Before I get it, should I also look for other types of damages on my claw (besides cold) or is just, for example, small amount of lightning damage on gloves sufficient? Because the Day 1 POB doesn't have anything besides cold on claw.
If you cant fit the auras, you are leveling your precision up too high, or you have a support linked to an aura maybe. You can use Inspiration and the 15% life as mana cost mastery to help with mana friction. For ele damage anything is fine with Trinity until you go Hatred, then you want full phys+cold claws.
Great guide! I'm currently playing an assassin and using this guide for it. Would you say it's alright to play assassin FB in 3.25? I'd rather not reroll and do the campaign again
@@ZishPOE Thanks for the answer. I'm pretty new to this game and thought assassin looked cool. Chose to play FB after seeing your videos and already made an assassin, that's why I asked.
Dumb question, but what can we do to get more str/int stats (to keep up with gem leveling)? Is it better to get needed str/int stats in amulets/rings? Is it worth investing in some nodes on the tree?
Hey poe noob with 2k here, like your build and all the information but how do you get attk speed on flask wasnt it removed? what should I roll instead?
You can replace it with a damage jewel if you want, but freeing up the suffixes is really good to help with chaos res capping to enable 2 tamings. It's all flexible though.
Hey Zish. Thanks for thr guide, POB is so detailed. I want to play this as Slayer. What would change tree/gear wise? Also comparing FB v Katabasis, whats the big differences, obviosuly all the proj stuff but much else if I want to do katabasis? Sincerely, a real noob
@Zish Hello, my friend! I've been playing your Trickster for three leagues on FB, tell me can we still use the White Wind as a plug if there's no good claw? And where did Yoke disappear from the build? Is this Isa Varden? Thank you. (translated from Russian into English) :D
Great work as usual! I am a little perplexed by Oath of Spring. If we hit 9times/sec we get about 23shocks in 2,6sec (2sec * 1,3 from ascendency). If we compare this to Yoke and standard shock, is it really worth it? The problem is that even with defiled forces, it's hard to keep attacking for 5,5sec straight to reach 50 stacks. Maybe as Lightning Strike with return projectiles you can have 3+ hits, but as FB it looks suboptimal. I mean it's like this is tailored for LS even using Vaal LS for phase bosses to apply it instantly. I mean the "perfect" setup is +1 extra curse on wpn, defiled forced annoint and arcanist brand for Ele weakness, but still it will take ramp up time. Returning projectiles on the other hand as a wpn enchant I think require like 150% projectile speed which is potentially given by vengeant cascade? It only says 'returning projectiles'. That would solve some of the shock application issues however, depending on how much shotgunning is involved.
Yes Oath of Spring requires some feeling out. If its 5 seconds of ramp with Defiled Forces, I think that will be totally fine - we can also use VLS and maybe other things for additional stacks, too. If it turns out to be bad, going for the Tincture node instead is a big possibility, we have to see how it plays.
Do you think this will be able to clear T17 juiced content without an issue? Once you reach Endgame on the build of course, or is it better to stick with something like Lightning Strike if that would be my aim? Also thank you for the video, you go to an incredible length of in-depth as always god bless you
@@ZishPOE Something like the Shaper T17s from last league for example, I realize that to do it on other builds I needed to invest multi mirrors most of the time, just wondering if the Frost Blades can be scaled to do that kind of tough content potentially as I have always loved Frost Blades but been away from it for a while.
do you still pick up oath of winter despite been majority cold and getting that 2 second freeze on basically everything except bosses? and are we looking for a lightning damage affix on weapons to proc shock or is that coming from somewhere else?
is there any point in doing claw like you used to do or is it better to try to make it full physical? because aura hatred has lost more cold and has more phys extra cold damage
Full Phys claw seems to be slightly better than one with Cold, but it's also MUCH more difficult/expensive to craft/buy. I would probably recommend most players go for the same Phys/phys/cold claw as previous guides.
Hi, I've got second a question. If I swap claw masteries for dagger ones (108 points vs 105 points) from day1 pob and swap rare claw for white wind i got huge dmg increase like 1.7mil vs 3mil (+/-, depends on the unique roll ofc). White wind is t5 unique so it should be pretty cheap right?. White wind also have SS and some evasion to make up for lost defences from shield and we have 3 points more to allocate. Am I missing something or is it really good thing to do for trade league, no?
yes white wind is a solid early option if you want. I've never bothered because it's not hard to ramp to that same level pretty fast - and a shield is going to be more important than ever on Warden without the chill/freeze immunity from Trickster (ailment immunity).
hey great content but i am kind of a noob on poe can i play this build safely until t17? and maybe do uber bosses when i farmed a lot? this builds sounds and looks cool and i wanted to try it out... even if its not the best i will have a blast playing ty zish!
Hey dude whats your thoughts about slayer fb? Endurance charge rework makes it really strong to stack endurance charges and slayer makes it easy with a lot of frenzy charges. Also new vaal pact slayer combo is pretty crazy. The only downside I see would be scuffed pathing but we can probably work something out
Good stuff man. I missed last league but am on for this one and your FB build has never dissapointed. Au contraire it's phenomenal. One of my best LS ever has been with your build I think Kalandra, cant remember. I'll start tomorrow with this again. Thanks for the guide!
as a Lost Ark/D4 player whose new to PoE I want to try this build really badly, I saw another channel recommend it and I was wondering if it had a beginners/new player guide for it?
Could you please link a loot filter for this build? I am fairly new and don't know how to make one and the default downloadable filters seem pretty bad
For newer players and people who want to do this build for the first time , i suggest to you to make it as second build. I played it 3 leagues in a row , i know, trust me. You will have much more pleasure when you have currency to make this build.
You can set configs to load outs. Click on manage at the top and you can add new configs. Just stick to the same names as how you do with the rest of your loadouts

2) Ele dmg on weapon - I will still be running trinity for some time as Heatshiver is quite pricy right now. Before I get it, should I also look for other types of damages on my claw (besides cold) or is just, for example, small amount of lightning damage on gloves sufficient? Because the Day 1 POB doesn't have anything besides cold on claw.
If you cant fit the auras, you are leveling your precision up too high, or you have a support linked to an aura maybe. You can use Inspiration and the 15% life as mana cost mastery to help with mana friction. For ele damage anything is fine with Trinity until you go Hatred, then you want full phys+cold claws.
Great guide!
I'm currently playing an assassin and using this guide for it. Would you say it's alright to play assassin FB in 3.25? I'd rather not reroll and do the campaign again
EHhhhh, I'd say there's absolutely no reason to play Assassin over Trickster or Warden
@@ZishPOE Thanks for the answer. I'm pretty new to this game and thought assassin looked cool. Chose to play FB after seeing your videos and already made an assassin, that's why I asked.
If you're going Oath of summer, wouldn't you need defiled forces to refresh that shock?
Vaal Lightning Strike can also be good for that.
Yes Defiled Forces may be the best/only option to actually reach 50 shock stacks.
Dumb question, but what can we do to get more str/int stats (to keep up with gem leveling)?
Is it better to get needed str/int stats in amulets/rings? Is it worth investing in some nodes on the tree?
you can take tree nodes temporarily until you get them on gear/jewelry, sure
Cool ok, thanks!
Hey poe noob with 2k here, like your build and all the information but how do you get attk speed on flask wasnt it removed? what should I roll instead?
yes it was removed - you should have evasion + crit flask suffixes, the 3rd one can be curse, shock, or stun reduction
Looking at the pob, do you need the ancestral vision if you're at 100% elemental ailment avoidance, and if not, what can you replace with it?
You can replace it with a damage jewel if you want, but freeing up the suffixes is really good to help with chaos res capping to enable 2 tamings. It's all flexible though.
Hey Zish. Thanks for thr guide, POB is so detailed. I want to play this as Slayer. What would change tree/gear wise? Also comparing FB v Katabasis, whats the big differences, obviosuly all the proj stuff but much else if I want to do katabasis? Sincerely, a real noob
Katabasis requires melee splash, and Slayer will be an entirely different build. Everything would change, can't really help you there.
Fb on trickster is nuts, I've just finished a test run and it's really good. I'm sure this will be cracked as well.
Thank you for the guide. One question, did you see anything useful about Tinctures and Barkskin? Or will that come later?
Yes Tinctures are going to be VERY powerful - Barkskin is a solid defensive option if you want it.
Taking Piercing Shots(close to Acrobatics node), could be a temporary solution until I get the implicit in gloves?
id recommend you just craft on gloves until you get the implicit
Outstanding effort as ever! Much appreciated - have a good league come Friday!
Is this basically interchangeable with KB of katabasis? (hit based version).
thank you for the explanations and all the work you put into preparing this great POB
What is the best way in your opinion to get pierce into the build? Is there a node or a mod on a particular item?
eldritch implicit on gloves
yep gloves, implicit when you can, craft before
@Zish Hello, my friend! I've been playing your Trickster for three leagues on FB, tell me can we still use the White Wind as a plug if there's no good claw? And where did Yoke disappear from the build? Is this Isa Varden? Thank you. (translated from Russian into English) :D
White Wind is a solid early choice, yes - Yoke is also solid very late.
Great work as usual!
I am a little perplexed by Oath of Spring. If we hit 9times/sec we get about 23shocks in 2,6sec (2sec * 1,3 from ascendency).
If we compare this to Yoke and standard shock, is it really worth it?
The problem is that even with defiled forces, it's hard to keep attacking for 5,5sec straight to reach 50 stacks. Maybe as Lightning Strike with return projectiles you can have 3+ hits, but as FB it looks suboptimal. I mean it's like this is tailored for LS even using Vaal LS for phase bosses to apply it instantly.
I mean the "perfect" setup is +1 extra curse on wpn, defiled forced annoint and arcanist brand for Ele weakness, but still it will take ramp up time.
Returning projectiles on the other hand as a wpn enchant I think require like 150% projectile speed which is potentially given by vengeant cascade? It only says 'returning projectiles'. That would solve some of the shock application issues however, depending on how much shotgunning is involved.
Yes Oath of Spring requires some feeling out. If its 5 seconds of ramp with Defiled Forces, I think that will be totally fine - we can also use VLS and maybe other things for additional stacks, too. If it turns out to be bad, going for the Tincture node instead is a big possibility, we have to see how it plays.
Love FB and specially with teh 6L blade farmed from Hillock :D
Do you think this will be able to clear T17 juiced content without an issue? Once you reach Endgame on the build of course, or is it better to stick with something like Lightning Strike if that would be my aim?
Also thank you for the video, you go to an incredible length of in-depth as always god bless you
Yes with investment it can do T17s - maybe depending on what kind of Juice youre talking about, but I did all the T17s last league in SSF
@@ZishPOE Something like the Shaper T17s from last league for example, I realize that to do it on other builds I needed to invest multi mirrors most of the time, just wondering if the Frost Blades can be scaled to do that kind of tough content potentially as I have always loved Frost Blades but been away from it for a while.
@@InfamousHady With enough investment you can do everything no problem
recommendations for lethal pride?
Rage on hit > DD > Intimidate > Crit Multi > Melee Dmg
should I choose slayer or warden btw? saw some versions with slayer
slayer tankier less damage
do you still pick up oath of winter despite been majority cold and getting that 2 second freeze on basically everything except bosses? and are we looking for a lightning damage affix on weapons to proc shock or is that coming from somewhere else?
Not on weapon - you just need 1 roll somewhere - ring, glove, jewel, amulet
is there any point in doing claw like you used to do or is it better to try to make it full physical? because aura hatred has lost more cold and has more phys extra cold damage
Full Phys claw seems to be slightly better than one with Cold, but it's also MUCH more difficult/expensive to craft/buy. I would probably recommend most players go for the same Phys/phys/cold claw as previous guides.
@@ZishPOE ok thanks!
Going Warden FB this league! Thanks for the excellent detailed guide!
Hi, I've got second a question. If I swap claw masteries for dagger ones (108 points vs 105 points) from day1 pob and swap rare claw for white wind i got huge dmg increase like 1.7mil vs 3mil (+/-, depends on the unique roll ofc). White wind is t5 unique so it should be pretty cheap right?. White wind also have SS and some evasion to make up for lost defences from shield and we have 3 points more to allocate. Am I missing something or is it really good thing to do for trade league, no?
yes white wind is a solid early option if you want. I've never bothered because it's not hard to ramp to that same level pretty fast - and a shield is going to be more important than ever on Warden without the chill/freeze immunity from Trickster (ailment immunity).
hey great content but i am kind of a noob on poe can i play this build safely until t17? and maybe do uber bosses when i farmed a lot?
this builds sounds and looks cool and i wanted to try it out... even if its not the best i will have a blast playing
ty zish!
Yes with good investment you can do all content
Hey dude whats your thoughts about slayer fb? Endurance charge rework makes it really strong to stack endurance charges and slayer makes it easy with a lot of frenzy charges. Also new vaal pact slayer combo is pretty crazy. The only downside I see would be scuffed pathing but we can probably work something out
Its tankier with less damage
Good stuff man. I missed last league but am on for this one and your FB build has never dissapointed. Au contraire it's phenomenal. One of my best LS ever has been with your build I think Kalandra, cant remember. I'll start tomorrow with this again. Thanks for the guide!
Hey Bro!
To craft the claw, do you need veiled chaos orbs?
They will help, but hopefully with Recombinators we can make some nice gear without veiled orbs. We'll see.
Are we going to have a 3.25 trickster POB and guide video?! :D
I wasn't planning to but I might do something quick since so many people are asking about it
as a Lost Ark/D4 player whose new to PoE I want to try this build really badly, I saw another channel recommend it and I was wondering if it had a beginners/new player guide for it?
I dont have a guide for new players specifically, no - not sure if I would recommend this build for a brand new player honestly
Jorgin sent me... Looks like a good build to play with.
Could you please link a loot filter for this build? I am fairly new and don't know how to make one and the default downloadable filters seem pretty bad
I just use Neversink's basic filters at first and then remove stuff from them slowly
Zish, thank you very much for the detailed guide. In your personal opinion, do you think the trickster will make a difference in the Varden's life?
huh
For newer players and people who want to do this build for the first time , i suggest to you to make it as second build. I played it 3 leagues in a row , i know, trust me. You will have much more pleasure when you have currency to make this build.
No TRUST ME
Gracias por tus guias.
Podrias hacer un POB para FB slayer?
I have doubts I will be able to make the most of the warden perks... Would you expect your 3.24 trickster build to still work mostly fine?
Yep absolutely
