1.3 Budget detonate dead build, uber killer, deathless, insane clear speed

nice, will do this build in the next league

I intend to try this out in the 1 month league, I've never played in a temporary league before (torment came out when I started) So it'll be super interesting to see how difficult it will be to gear for uber. I'll most likely use flame blast or fire trap while leveling depending on the situation until DD starts to shine, and maybe incinerate for normal atziri.


This fire trap build http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/999001/page/1 is very similar to ours in terms of what we look for in the tree, and gear.

I was thinking of a fire trap build but i think ill be leveling one and switching to this late.

Just one thought, how about popping vaal IC for the vaals (after they come back out or after one dies), that would give you an almost safe bet for a deathless pass. Trio is trivial with IC lasting this long, but the same goes for Atziri split phases. We can store like 3 vaal IC (equip one, fill with souls, replace with empty one - switching them in the inventory does not lose the charges. I have been told that at least. Should have plenty of time during the mirror spawn time for the swap), and pop one for each mirror phase. That should make even the split phase easy.

So yeah.. there gonna be quite a few acuities next league :D

Does this build work well in parties? Can it carry parties with it's damage?

You could use vaal IC, to see it in action check my vaal ic build in my signature. The reason I didn't do it is to not complicate the build further. I love the lack of gem swaps required, especially compared to my vaal ic build. So you could use a vaal ic for sure.

Also DD isn't really that good for normal atziri, it's easily doable but you can't blits through the bosses since it's a level 70 area, for normal atziri I'm thinking of just using incinerate for the bosses.

Also if you look at the firetrap guide I linked, I think we could follow something similar to that, but to go to the maurader/lower templar area rather than shadow area, so we might not need to change our tree much at all for dd

I did one 78 party rotation to get it to level 91, and the clear speed was really good, I had people asking me what build I was running and to link my items. You won't be clearing faster than a full low life mirror build, but it can definitely carry. But since its damage scales with the level of the map, it might not be able to do as well as lower level maps. I'm just assuming that though, didn't do any partying other than 78 maps

Really looking forward to starting this. Unsure if I wanna respec my old standard witch. Need to check my bandits but I think all 3 are different :/
Looks like a lot of fun.

when is best time to transition into DD

Hey there,
currently rocking this build in the 1MHC race. Currently Level 75 and I have a few questions:
1.) The damage is good, but somehow it does not feel great with a Spell Echo Desecrate. Maybe I should get quality on Desecrate and DD soon and just use Spell Echo for bosses?
2.) Is there any way I can do Atziri with this build? I mean with a 5 link CoD and upgraded gear? Currently I don't see a way for that.
I would get more skill duration, VP, but without having access to Atziri gear lifeleech is kind of a problem, isn't it? (Are there swap options? Incinerate as mentioned?)

I switched from 3link flameblast to 4link DD the second I got to merciless. Works great

I know you say only need a 5l, but what would you put in a 6l?
