I’m on T4 but this build so far is absolutely SICK. I started off doing my own thing abut once I got to maps, decided to follow your guide since what I was doing was similar in idea but I wasn’t a PoE 1 player. I wanted to really understand where my build could be at my level so now I have much higher expectations and knowledge of how to build a character. Following everything to a T now, just got my solar amulet for herald and having lightning explosions is awesome. One thing I did keep from my build was the glacial ice wall and electro arrow (I still have all the skills from the mobalytics build, these are just “extras”). I love shooting and ice wall to funnel or stop getting rushed, then blasting through it with explosive lighting, or being able to front flip over the wall or just to get out of a pack. Don’t really NEED to do that bc the build clears everything but its still fun to do. Anyway, thanks a ton for this build. It’s incredibly satisfying.
Very good info in this video. Everything you say is correct. Just a mention: you can first shoot stormcaller arrow and the apply voltaic mark. Even if the arrow hits before the mark, the big shock is applied by the lightning bolt component of stormcaller. This means a 2-button prime which goes very fast and you can start dps'ing right awayforl Also the plasma is wasting a lot of time for less dps than shochburst. Also stormcaller arrow gem quality is high priority, since it gives a ton of shock duration and you kill bosses in fewer "rotations"
if you're a gemling then use lightning warp and ball lightning to make shocked ground no need to apply shock if they are just standing on shocked ground. plus it gives you alot of mobility check it out.
No there is no video. I just read the ability and was already using shockburst rounds so it just made sense to apply shock this way instead of using other skills considering i was using the warp to cull enemies anyhow. you just tp to the ball with the warp and make a huge area of shocked ground and unload on the boss. easy
This is fun, I've been using this. But it has downsides such as positioning you in mobs instead of keeping a safe distance (can add blind on lightning ball to mitigate this a little). It's also a lot more mana hungry.
@@xapa8962 Using low level gems for ball lightning + lightning warp has been great, I think its much better than stormcaller arrow (weapon swapping is slow, have to wait for the arrow to pop too). testing which supports work best with them, but currently running: - Lightning warp - magnified effect, overcharge, lightning exposure, blind. - ball lightning - acceleration, arcane tempo, inspiration lmk if anyone has better suggestions so far
Im currently a lvl 35 Gemling Legionnaire following your exact build. I dont have half of the skills or gems nor acendancy points to fully utilize the build but im still extremely OP using galvanic shards. I luckily got 1 low level increase magnitude of shocks jewel at 11% early on but i dont have enough spirit to use both herald of thunder and ash simultaneously. I also dont have access to fork yet so i use chain and it still works well. Great build and video. 1st time poe player so i was completely lost.
Sorry i questioned you! Threw all I had and respecced into this and.. you cooked with this !✨ An update would be nice. I want those dmg to rare perks back, personally but i look forward to seeing what you come up with
sorry i am building this and i thought if i socket cannbalism and precision on wind dancer isnt it better? so i can use herald socket for damage things or am i wrong?
I'm enjoying the build! I'm finding myself with a about 60 extra spirit to play with. Think it's better to add overwhelming Presence + 2xclarity or going with a cast on shock attack or spell? voltaic grenade, galvanic field, and orb of storms all seem like they would synergize well. If orb of storms fires every time you shoot with a crossbow skill, that could be a potent dps increase
I am so confused, I see on the website where the build is presented different Support Gems then in the this video From 7:50 Can you make it the same on the site please ? Also why do you have Support gems in ''Crossbow'' I thought I did not have to use that skill, keep in mind this is week 2 I am playing POE, never played it before :) Also I am playing your build for over a week now, and I love it But can you please make it so I can just copy and paste the gems haha TY
Trying to figure out with one thing: X to Level of all Projectile Skills. The gun with that stat, for example, with 500+ dps and the gun with 600+ dps without that stat. What is better?
@@Maddog4o2you’d rather trade 10,000 exalted than 200 divine? The problem is with inflation, where end game maps are dropping too much currency driving the price up for the rest of the player base.

Hello - just to clarify, do we meed the skill gems in the Crossbow Shot "basic attack" 4 slots? Does it add up to the damage from Galvanic Shards for example. I'm lvl 71, just respec'ed from grenadier, got myself an expensive furlow crossbow and some other gear to have something close to what you have but it feels really underwhelming DPS wise. My galvanic shards has only 1.4k DPS and actually the only skill that feels like doing damage is plasma blast. Everything else is slow and painful. Is this build only really shining at 4 or 5 links?
Do you have any videos or recommendations on survivability pre acrobatics. Seem to be getting one shot t6+ no matter what i do. Around 10k evasion and almost capped on my res
How are you using stormcaller arrow at higher levels, requiring more dexterity than what is showing on your stat sheet? Are you using weapon set 2 points or dex on the bow? Or do you keep stormcaller arrow at a lower level than it could be?
Can anyone tell me why my shockburst is so weak? It feels weaker than galvanic shards on single target. Which support gems are the most important when having only 3 slots? Also i dont know why but since switching the wasd my stormcaller arrows cant be targeted anymore, they just land where they hit a rock or the map's border. The delay is very frustrating for fast moving rares, is it worst trying lightning ball + wrap to apply shock to bosses/uniques?
Why is my stormcaller arrow not applying shock status to rare monsters and bosses? I have all of the support gems mentioned in video and bonus 31% to shock from jewels
Got 70% evasion with acrobatics and still get shoted in t15-16 maps. Mobs damage me pretty often. Should I go for more evasion or I need to cap another defences? BTW if you spend your 3 ascendancy points to quality of gems you got 4 stacks of wind dancer, I think it’s better for survivability at that stage
You will need around 2.8k health to be comfy there. I ver, rarely get oneshot in t16 maps running 2.6k health with 70% acro. Health + evasion is sadly currently undertuned and will need to be buffed somehow to compete with es, which is tge only thing capable of surviving 10k+ hits
@@Mordarim i solved a problem. I have around 30 chaos resist, and almost all my deaths because of that. Now ive got cap res, 2.2k health and 74 evasion with acro
We get exposure + ~40% pen, which is enough for basically anything the game throws at you. Conductivity increases the shock application from ~80 to 100, possibly even more. We also have enough buttons already, so its not needed but can be added in the ctrl bar.
Well, they just do 2 different things, voltaic increases chance to shook and the monster exploades after death, and conductivity lowers lightning resist
Update: I’m lvl 86 and had over 20k evasion, using acrobatics. I’m getting one shot on sekhemas 4 and some t6 maps. My resistances arent ideal. I just dont know if thats the problem or what.
With this build I struggle on juiced t15 maps, where enemies walk around with their shield in front of them. They keep reflecting my arrows back at me and plasma blast doesnt always knock them back. What should I do on these types of enemies?@@Mordarim
@noway2509 oh I forgot about the 70% less evasion, thank you! But what's throwing me off is that on the planner, it's mentioned that 15k is obtainable with a 1k evasion chest, yet I have 1k on mine and my evasion is still at ~3k (with all evasion increasing passives). Are you running the same build?

great video mate, missing your boots!
Great build! Fun to play.
Is there another update planned on that ?
Penetration no longer goes to negative values anymore, no point in scalling too much pen & exposure after about 50-ish%.
swift affliction says "non-ailment damage" but ignite is a damaging ailment, isnt it?
How are you using stormcaller arrow at higher levels, requiring more dexterity than what is showing on your stat sheet? Are you using weapon set 2 points or dex on the bow? Or do you keep stormcaller arrow at a lower level than it could be?
bottom right ascendancy will cover the requirement
@ thanks for the response! So even though it’s a dex requirement, because it’s not a merc skill I’ll be able to use it without enough dex?
Where did you find a ring with Evasion Rating? There's none on the trade site.
I rolled it with an exalt, but its probably just a different affix you have to use on the tradesite. I know there are multiple for some
@Mordarim Hey, this build got nerfed or is still good to play with?

how do you search for the amulet? I can't find anything in trade options to get that skill stat
you can craft that part, search "anoint Unbound Forces"
Sorry for the newbie question, i tried galvanized shards, but it does not apply any elemental debuff, is it normal or i got a problem in my build?

How do you allocate a passive skill to an item?
but the support gem on the base shot what are for?
Why you shoot the bow 3 times to apply shock?
Look very good! I think about change my ascendancy, what do you think? Your is more better than witch hunter?
Unfortunately you cannot change your ascendancy after you've picked one, you'd have to make a new character
Is it not worth picking up the 2h damage nodes early on?
Hi, do the bow and quiver stats influence the damage or attack speed on your crossbow skills?
No.
any plans for an update?
