Especially if you have a Doryani's.	Posted by aechean#0293 on Mar 29, 2016, 1:48:22 PM Quote this Post

I'm running 6L, Soul Taker and decent gear, and even when using ToH (For testing purpouses)+ Atziri's Promise + Hatred, my dps gets only as high as 25k or so (With Conc Effect). (Earthquake). It may be because of Soul Taker, which weapon is the most appropiate for this build right now? To clarify: I'm not having trouble clearing maps, it's really hard to die with this build, but my clear speed is pretty slow. I haven't gotten to red tier maps yet as they won't ever drop, but I've tanked crazy things so they shouldn't be a problem until the later ones.

Hi, I am playing a very similar build to this one and think of trying Vinktar's Square in PHC. What would I need to do it safely? I have 13k 4L earthquake dps with hatred, 6k life, 14k armor, max block and spellblock. I'm rocking Lioneye's remorse since I don't have Aegis yet. EDIT: Got Aegis. Accidentally came across Abaxoth in T9 map and facetanked him without any problems whatsoever. Will I be safe doing Vinktar's Square boss with this build if I can facetank Abaxoth easily?

" sirdec wrote: talking about ur belt? What do u use? is Meginord still the best for this build? what bout Doryani's Invitation, Heavy Belt?? Meginord's is one of the best choices, although a leather belt with an explicit life mod will give you more life. Meginords gives both life and dps, though. 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995 Ice Crash Crit Staff AKA "The Shaterring Karui": https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1289037 Tanky Block+AR+EV Ranger Crit Reave Dagger/Claw: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1301888	Posted by ComradeSerge#4604 on Mar 30, 2016, 5:49:14 AM Quote this Post

Talking about the body Armour, A high Astral Plate seems to be recommended... is someone playing with a Lightning Coil with this build? Is there an other choice than Astral Plate?

Ty for answer Astral Plate is the default choice due to it helping with the resistances, but if your resistances everything with decent armor and mods will do. While LC is always good, I don't think it's as good on this build as with other builds. Most likely, as someone mentioned earlier in this post, an hybrid armor with 1400+ armor and ES would probably be the best, but that's crazy expensive.

Ty for answer You don't HAVE to use an Astral Plate. You can use any chest with high armour, which can be anything from a Glorious Plate to a Gladiator Plate. 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995 Ice Crash Crit Staff AKA "The Shaterring Karui": https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1289037 Tanky Block+AR+EV Ranger Crit Reave Dagger/Claw: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1301888	Posted by ComradeSerge#4604 on Mar 31, 2016, 5:58:51 AM Quote this Post
Is this build playable with Varunastra blade? Wouldn't it be stronger? Or is the stun from maces so important for the build? Thanks for answering :)	Posted by tmkOO#1291 on Mar 31, 2016, 9:49:52 AM Quote this Post
