Enki's Arc Witch Memorial Page & POE 2 Arc Summary

I'm working on a very low budget and looking for a new toon just for mapping. Since my Tec Slam dude can kill bosses but he's pretty shitty at maps. I don't need the super high single target build this currently is, just a fast mapper.

I already have Ahn's Heritage and 1Pacifism. Should I buy one Doryani's+Pacifism and run like that until I get 2 daggers?. Will it still be somewhat zoom zoom or... Should I buy 2 Cerberus Limb, which is about the same budget. And dual wield those instead.

Just for mapping, which set up would work better?

Thanks bois!!! <3

Fairly easy to work around.. arc goes to right click, but its a pain in the ass after playing with primary skill on left click for years.


I updated my PoB and loaded my stuff. Definitely saw the damage change between Tabula and Inpulsa, still not sure what you're doing wrong, but I went from 484k to 510k in PoB, plus the explosions. (Left some stuff off like Frenzy charges and Onslaught). And I have no idea how PoB handles the extra shock effect.
For Nimbleness, you're way too invested into PoB numbers. Cast speed will amplify damage numbers to crazy amounts, but that is a situation where you don't have to move or do other stuff. 12% cast speed is great and all, but you're cutting into damage # stats. And we don't have any 3-point jewels with 2 INT. The only 3-point jewel is with 16% mana. Run Nimbleness if you want to, but you're giving up a damage or defensive stat somewhere for it.
Can't help you with the Arc movement. I have grown very accustomed to right-click with ranged characters for PoE with left click as Movement only.



HaHa - Guilty as charged. Only been using for PoB for a couple weeks. The engineer in me loves it, but still don't fully trust it - no matter how good it is, it's not the same code as PoE.. I'm definately doing something wrong with PoB/Inpulse, but it doesn't really matter. I trust the anecdotes people in this thread have given about how good it was. And besides, if it wasn't good, it wouldn't have been nerfed.

I'm a ways off from Inpulsa.. only have about 50% to a 5L and 25% to a 6L one, so I def have a while before I have to worry about that. Unless I base a really cheap one and try to socket, link and color it myself. or I could hit hte "drop 10 currency" beast recipe jackpot ;)

Would the Dagger called Heartbreaker be good for one of the Daggers, at least early on? It has Culling Strike and +69% Spell Damage?

Just about to finish the last Act, so would getting both Heartbreaker and Divinarius be a good dual dagger start for trying out Daggers? (Have been using 2 Sceptres and Leap Slam up till now)

What do the minion damage nodes do for this build?

Spiritual Aid node makes those nodes apply to you too
Please update the skill tree, it can't be opened!

At any rate, I've got 1ex and 205c for a budget at the moment. Been saving for an Inpulsa, but I've been starting to have a tough time as I'm breaking into the T9+ range and I'm not sure if it's a playstyle or gear issue


Shaped weapons (only when moderately priced, I paid 10 and 25c for mine, might have Annulled one).
Abyss belt, damage gloves (atk/cast speed, minion damage, spell dmg, etc).
Enchanted boots.
Remove 2 spell crit to left of Lord of Dead, another jewel slot.
Remove 1 5% HP - 2nd 2-point jewel slot (HP + 1-2 dmg cancels lost HP).
Remove 3 or 5 more 5% HP - Complete Purity of Flesh for extra chaos resist.
Yolo Vaal Arc for 21. If it fails, buy a level 21 Arc or use back-up slots to level spares of it or other support gems (21 Arc is cheap compared to other supports).

That should put you under budget and into red maps without too many non-Betrayal issues until you get to the expensive upgrades like Inpulsa and Watcher's.


Appreciate the suggestions, put some of them into effect and already noticing the difference, so thank you. The skill node swaps were especially helpful. Didn't realize how useful that Purity of Flesh cluster was.

Still have some messing around to do with my jewels and such, but at least now I got some things to focus on. Thanks again!
Hey enki, love the guide, can I get a recommendation on crafting base for weapon? The link you gave recommends either platinum kris (for damage) or sai (for defense), but I was wondering what you think is more important for the build?

Thanks again.

Enki specifically mentions Heartbreaker as the best dagger for levelling in the levelling section. I've been using two and they're pretty good. Also super cheap to buy if you're not in SSF.

Plus, you'll be more mobile using those with whirling blades over leap slam and sceptre. Once you get some attack speed you can move much more rapidly.
How imperative is it for us to have all resistances at the same % for Wise Oak? Can we scrape by with just the lightning damage buff or is Wise Oak only good when resistances are balanced?
