Thank you very much for the update. I had a lot of questions from the last one, but you covered most of them. Going to try for a more map-focused variant with a lot more AoE and rarity (and low expectations with the budget options). Just need to farm a few back-up divines and then figure out how I want to level it. Cheers!
this build has been around for a while, this guy didnt invent this cursed ground interaction by any means. Also he should be using burning inscription support on single target which is recommended for this build.
Yeah man definetly make the leveling guide! I have most of the gear and have been looking for a build to throw it all into and this looks like a great time. Now i just need 8 2% mana soulcores 😅
Noice video! I noticed you mentioned you're not a content creator, but would you consider making a quick video just showing the gem setups and gear? Even just hovering over the gems/gear for a few seconds each would be super helpful. I'm trying to follow your build but it's becoming quite the journey trying to catch glimpses of the setup between different videos. Would really help folks trying to replicate this interesting build concept! Thanks for sharing it either way!
This is the most unique build I've seen for the Gemling. Can't wait to see what other crazy stuff people come up with when new items and skills get added to the game
Also, since I am assuming you are just using Orb of Storm on bosses to get a bit more single target by applying exposure, and you have an open gem slot, you could consider using ball lightning + lightning warp instead of orb of storm. This combo lets you put down a shocked ground that lingers for 10 seconds and forces shock onto anything on it. Surprisingly enough, the shock from the shocked ground also immediately applies lightning exposure if you have lightning warp supported by lightning exposure support, and you can add the additional exposure effect too. If it is just for bossing, this gives a bit of extra setup but it is pretty quick and easy to do, and you can put it down while the boss is still phasing in.
This is crazy cool - I didn't realise how ridiculous your mana pool can get - then the interaction between impending doom and archmage is just... wow. Kudos.
yea impending doom is pretty strong - might even be good as a standalone build when archmage eventually gets gutted. I think with dual dream fragements, the mana pool could touch 17k(maybe)
I wish I had this build done, then I could use the Discipline Scepter and give my wife a huge energy shield. I feel like this build could totally act as a support a bit.Ive been enjoying font of rage, mana, and vitality on my poison PF. It is cool that I can use vine arrow for those.
Have you got any jewels listed? i cant seem to find it, ive gone with mana regen, cast speed, increaesd area of curses, and triggered spells deal increased damage.
You would think the chaos damage is non existent but ive tested 5L despair vs 5L conductivity and it seems the same, actually sometimes conduct feels weaker i dont know why. I have Heavy Frost node so all enemy resist is 0 anyway, could have something to do with it. so then conductivity makes the lightning resist -30% but despair is lightning resist 0% and chaos resist -30% so maybe that makes up for it somehow
bro i need this build in my life. i have the full cage setup with all uniques but i want to switch to this to equip rarity shield. plz bless us all wit a written guide!!!! anyway to use the chest with rarity per core?
Nice build you have any suggestions for gear to use as your trying to get to the divines for this build would be cool if you could make a mobalytics guide for it, it’s the first caster representation I’ve seen for the gemling
Oooh the bit about the icd on impending makes a lot of sense now. I was trying this type of setup and my spell echo'd curse ground version was unable to proc it, but in retrospect I had quite a bit of cast speed from my weapon, ring, and arcane surge scaling (I was on stormweaver). Out of curiosity - are you able to put in shock siphoner into your impending doom setup? I'm curious if the 4% ES recovered when killing a shocked enemy would actually trigger with impending doom. Probably would be unnecesdary overkill/map sustain for your setup but on my build which is a lot weaker and can't fit grim feast I've found it to actually be very nice and smooth for mapping.
Have you tried cast on shock? Thx for the build btw, its crazy strong compared to my corrupting cry 1000 str one. Was kinda surprised the 5 socket mana chest was cheaper than my 4 socket all res one lmao, sold it for 32div and bought 5 soc manA for 14 😂😂😂 now need 3soc shield, i'm sitting at 9,6k mana and did my first simulacrum today. Btw i'm wondering how do you have that much int? I'm at 770, lv88 and i have the 4% int jewel and int on all my gear 25-33 and i got polymathy anoint
Hey, since you have this setup. Can you test Hand of Chayula as the method for curse application for Impending Doom? I mainly just want to see if this is a viable path to scale my abandoned Chonk with(mainly if it works in the first place and I can somehow scale it as AOE)
Impending doom procs when the curse expires right so does the lightning damage get affected by the reduced resistances from conductivity or no since the curse has already expired? Curious if anyone has an answer. I am trying to get better at understanding poe mechanics.
Actually MoM is almost a must on this build and endgame goal. Unless you're using Shock Siphon you have no way to recover healthpool. Shock siphon is pretty good tho

Thank you very much for the build guide. I have one question -- I noticed that if I up my cast speed too much, my curse stops doing damage. Is it because the innate cooldown of doom cast? Just wondering if you've noticed the same issue. Thanks.
I would personally level it like a normal crossbow character and then move mana stacking gear over and doing a full respec. I feel like homebrewing a build guide for this wouldn’t be fun.
curs effect, curse aoe, spell damage, triggered spell damage on blues would be idea damage stats. green jewels are light damage/pen, ideal corruptions are +str or int/dex to get other gear on
Besides boosting the mana value is there a specific reason for going gemling?. I mean it looks great but i wonder if one could go say chronomancer to make it work ?.

Great man, good job really suggestion... show gameplay first, i have skipped video to gameplay and see the explanation after that. If u can creat a guide, do it Good job man.
str stacking bloodmagic would get free crit damage from health, but no real support for str stacking as a standalone in my opinion ... yet, same with accuracy(that ive discovered)
At what level is it possible to switch to this? edit: saw only after my message that you leveled with this. I'd love to hear some details on this. Or a leveling guide in general would be appreciated!
There's very little impact with MOM on your mana recovery with a pool that large, the base mana regen rate is based on your maximum mana, that then gets scaled by Increased Mana Regen nodes. A level 20 or 21 Archmage with max mana cost and your 30% cost reduction ascendency will be covered more than enough if you have 2 rings with 60% mana regeneration rate + ingenuity.
i did corrupting cry as my first character, got it 1200 str. Its a good build, just requires totems to "fix" single target which i did not personally like.
Suggestion: Show gameplay at the start to hook people in. Showing a clip of that map boss evaporating right away would have been perfect.
fair enough. really just did this video as a info sharing deal cause people were asking for it.

Have you got any jewels listed? i cant seem to find it, ive gone with mana regen, cast speed, increaesd area of curses, and triggered spells deal increased damage.
If you corrupt your Archmage for +1 gem level and get to the gem lvl 21 breakpoint you will get 10% of damage as extra instead of 9%

I have the budget to do this but I'm wondering how much total mana to get it online?
played it since level 5 with twink gear. 4 or 5k mana will get it functioning in early reds. 8k mana is likely 1 shot most rares is solo play.
