It is definitely worth trying swapping something out for chain to improve clear speed. If you have a white socket, lightning pen is generally the lowest value support, so swap that. If not, hypothermia would be the only option as it is the only green.

Tried this out and definitely felt the different in clear speed, especially in memory fragments. Cons are high HP mobs obviously, and "Allies cannot die" packs become an instance crasher.

Hello guys,

A big thanks to this Build Creator ! ^^

A really good start in this league.

However, i have a question about this build, why we Don't take the "Lightning Walker" in the talent three ?


Thx again

like this build so far, just wondering how i access the levelling stages of the passive tree on POB? only the level 100 is available through the dropdown, thanks!

Switch to predictive -- fixes the instance crashing on allies cannot die!!!!!!

The fact that einhar beasts can have that mod, and that it persists for an eternity while he goes through the motions of capturing them, is particularly annoying. As yalehomo says, predictive mode may alleviate the issue, but can also get a little fucky as far as rubberbanding on your flame dash, which could be pretty serious given this league's mechanic. Try it out and see how it feels for you.

Lightning walker offers excellent damage per point, but no utility. Almost every damage node taken in this build is either travel, or offers additional utility rather than simply pure damage. The reason is basically just that the build is incredibly tight on points.

Lightning walker is a bit more damgae per point than dark arts, but dark arts buffs up your flame dash. It is also more damage per point than spiritual aid, but spiritual aid (well, righteous army) gives passive healing to your golems so you don't have to always be recasting them. Holy dominion is a travel through, elemental focus is a travel through. The brand nodes are destinations but provide significant utility.

I won't fault anybody for taking lightning walker, it is a lot of damage per point, but I find the build does not lack damage, and want to squeeze either utility or survival out of every point spent.

Added leveling trees. Had them in the 3.5 version, but forgot to put them in the new 3.6 version.

i actually am thinking of ways to improve
https://pastebin.com/5sTXLJ2V


i was thinking of making a 2nd wep wand for bossings and delve cuz at depth 300+ the wand with +2 for mapping seems a bit weak...

other thing im currently trying to think of way to craft a 3 linked helmet as mine but with either hp/resists/or -9 light resistannce from fossils.. and neither appears to buy so i might have to resort to crafting, any ideas
?

i got over 70 ex to spend and not sure on what

With that much to spend you might as well make the bossing wand, they're only like ~6 ex to make.

You're looking pretty glass cannon to me though, 4579 life, 2313 mana. I'd definitely be thinking about how to get more life.

No life on your belt, no life on your amulet, no life on your hat. Obviously your amulet is extremely good damage wise, but so glass.

You could upgrade your watcher's eye to wrath mana leech + wrath lightning pen (or wrath increased lightning damage). Light of divinity + trickery + your gloves should give enough crit for EO.

As you say the hats can be hard to get a good one, but crafting one that just happens to have all 3 extra supports is rather a nightmare as well. I'd create some live searches.

Here's a search for 3 support hats with a resist and room to craft life:
https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Synthesis/OpZEkrSE
No online results, 1 offline result

Here's a search for 3 support hats with life and room to craft a resist:
https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Synthesis/3GZnG0c5
No results on or offline.

Here's a search for ones that don't need to be crafted:
https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Synthesis/lPqp3rhV
No results on or offline.

I suppose this speaks to how much less popular synthesis league is than betrayal. By this time in betrayal league there were tons of online results for searches like these. None the less, running those three as live searches might find you something. Or you might find the one guy from the first search online.

With your kind of budget, 4 property jewels are also something to put on the list. Effect of non-damaging ailments is also a possible jewel corruption (as well as some other things like damage, minion damage, immune to corrupting blood).

Here's a high(ish) end jewel search:
https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Synthesis/0P6jYOUg

Can tweak the sum to your liking, or just sort by sum to see the best jewels. Of course if you need to, add necessary resists to the search.

hey what should i aim next ? going for inpulsa 1st and then start working on dual multimod wand?

Spoiler

Inpulsa will give more clearspeed, multimod wands will give more boss damage, up to you how to prioritize it. I went inpulsa first.

Your other gear is decent, nothing obviously too bad, though lots of room to improve still on every slot.

You could fix the craft on torment song wand. There's a higher tier of added lightning to spells than that (4 chaos IIRC).

Boots are perhaps the weakest of your pieces.

So I plan to craft my own weapon and I got a Shaped Prophecy Wand ( ilvl 85 ) drop. Is this worth the 2-3ex to multicraft or should I wait out?

The prices for the popular bases such as profane wands / scepters are too much and I need to save for a second weapon.

i may be stupid or i dunno but i cant find a way to sort by sum

figured it out..

now i got a question how do i add elemental resistancers there? what sum should i give it? i use mines atm to give me resistances.. and the ones i got r pretty expensive aswell

Yeah it isn't quite as good as a profane, but given that a profane base for some reason this league costs 4.5 ex, I think it is completely reasonable to do another base. You can try it in PoB to see how much difference it makes on your damage, it shouldn't be more than 1-2% total DPS difference.

It also makes flame dash a little slower, but oh well.

Mines?

I wouldn't put the resists in a sum (or at least not the same sum you use for damage). Generally you just need or don't need the resist, so I'd put it in a separate search group with the "and" type. For example:
https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Synthesis/6GYlB9sG

I don't think the jewels are your top priority right now anyway. I'd be focused on getting your life up a bit.
