SHARP's "The Immortal Scion" Classical Life Version

b

How vital is the Soul Taker, the current drop one which is what I have caps at 300dps.

Mine, as seen here, is only 286dps. So is borderline low at Dominus based on what you mention above.

Hey, this build seems awesome. I tried to roll soul taker for it as im quite new player and after ~13 roll here it is :D

I will follow this thread and wait for more advices :)

With a non-legacy Soul Taker there wont be any problem, no worries..
Soul Taker wont use life for skills but other 1H weapons will be using life as a source by Blood Magic gem.

I couldnt release the new version "w/out Soul Taker" yet since I didnt have any 1H around 300 dps to test the build fully. Though I dont think we will have problem on Dominus type fights at all ; 290-320 dps will be enough. But what I believe is when a guide is released it should be tested first by the developer in details.

enjoy..

Just got a decent deal on a nice chest for this build, only issue is how many Fusing to throw at it trying to 6L, before I tear all my hair out and go cry in a corner... :)



Okay, I surrender...
2 days, every Fusing I could farm, beg, trade for.
Some 1900+ Fusings later I stopped when I finally got back to a 5L as I was running out of Fusings.

:)
sorry I was at a short holiday and couldnt reply on time..
the answer would be:
Number of Fusing needed to get 6L..... 1 to Infinite
depends how lucky u r :)
I know myself and never ever try to go beyond 40 fuses if I ever dare to do..

btw, 6L chest is not a MUST for the build :)

This isnt like Dragons build, this IS dragons build. With a different name and starting as scion, using a different class and changing tree a bit but using same uniques and stats on rare items.

I think you can do vaal and dominus, if you enfeeble them, and use both granite and jade and use determination you will have obscene amount of armor and you can tank most of the physical part. Or stat some more hp in your passives.

EDIT: Optimised big time for ya, starting as marauder to avoid the tons of unnecessary points and branching out you had. This is still assuming we are using soul taker and alpha’s howl.

What you get from this version of mine

- more hp – Where you roughly had 4k, you now have around 6k+ at level 100 and with some better gear
- more ES from %ES and shield defense nodes (did the math, its about 19xx ES, and if you get an ES chest even more. Before if you got an ES chest the ES from it wouldn’t have scaled with lots of % ES, only the int %, because most of your ES was coming from discipline and ~80% aura / buff effect.) This is a far superior option imo
- Exact same block without needing to use TS!
- More armor % nodes than before! And since we don’t need TS and discipline and can run exactly 3 x 60% auras, we go hatred grace and determination. So on top of more hp and es, we also get more armor! And this with IR and granite and jade flask = MASSIVE armor, like 60k+ easy. Tank big hits like vaal and dominus all day.
- Of course, if you don’t need grace or determination, you can still use discipline. Net result: Even more ES, tons of it!
- US is NOT needed, believe me. Especially with 6k life. You can take it if you want and skip out on some dps / ias / life nodes

for level 100

Pls note that I know very well what Dragon's Infernal Tank build is and as I alrdy told in the beginning of this guide it helped me a lot to develop my Immortal Scion build. This is the link to Dragon's build: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/384141.. I suggest u to read it once more to see the main differences. If u have some experience in PoE but u dont have much time (since both Dragon's and mine are a bit detailed ) ; it is even enough to just look at the skill and support gems used..

Ofc some items and stats will be same or similar if u plan to use Aegis Shield which forces u to have some ES gears to get the major benefit of the shield. But other than these "must" items, nothing is same , even "similar"..

"

I think you can do vaal and dominus

Did I ever say I cant solo them? Pls read once more carefully my dear friend.. I mention to skip the bosses having 1-shot ability such as Vaal and Dominus, not because they hit so hard ; this is np at all for this build, but because of Desync problem !.. I soloed both many times but at my last fight I was dead just because of I saw myself in safe position while indeed I was face to face with Vaal (the famous desync problem of GGG). In my opinion, while leveling it is not so important to get down all bosses in all maps and best way is just to skip them..

enjoy,

I really think it is the exact same build and concept man.

And if you died it means you didnt really tank the hit, when you desync you get hit once before you oos.

anyways, check out my edit, tell me what you think! I really tried to optimise it in every way for you

Thank You for your kind effort to help to have a very tanky Mara build..
I can give a try to it if u make a such powerful build for 85 lvl but not for 100 lvl char. That is the number of nodes should be around 15 less resulting 17 left. Since what I believe any build should be matured and fully powered around 85 lvl; beyond this it is a real pain to lvl up and friends should get the fun of build at max 85 lvl.
I can discuss about it when I see your new build picture.. Pls note that I am fully open for new ideas always , that is why I love this game, almost endless different skill builds we may have..

what do u think that I mention about "1-shot ability" :)
This build is not designed to be stand still for "all" coming attacks and never meaned it. It is not a fun play-style for me and for many players.. I prefer to learn the coming boss attacks and find out the ways to dodge them if necessary. The existing build protects us from many heavy attacks both physc. and spell but there are still some to learn to avoid.. Sometimes to use flasks on time , or being out of line for a short time , decursing the boss if applicable, etc..

thank u once more for your critics and sharing your ideas.. I really enjoy..
