Could you provide some more details?

Whats your gear atm and what skill are you leveling with?

i'm currently using frost blades and fire totem with some yellows and tabula rasa!

I´d say your weapon is the core of the Problem here. It has really low DPS for a attack weapon.

You can also try to switch the order of your Links and use your 6 Link for your Melee Attack.

If you feel like you have Problems with your low HP, try to switch to Groundslam as you can stay a bit at range with it compared to frostblades.

But you need to get a better weapon for that first.

Try a Storm Heart or Rigvalds Charge

Both are only 1 Alc to buy and Stormheart served me well until i could switch to CoC. (it has nice crit, you can even start to try CoC with it ;))

If you can, try to run all 3 Haralds to support your attack to get more damage.

As setup for the attack try: Groundslam - Weapon Elemental Damage - Multistrike - faster attacks - Powercharge on critical -Manaleech/reduced Mana

Your Life Flasks are not "uptodate for our level too, try to switch them for Hallowed Flasks that heal a lot more.

Keep your Flame totem around in a 3 or 4 link with Fastercasting, Fire pen, added chaos

Hope that helps!

Act4 bosses can really be a Problem as this build isn´t specialised in singletarget damage, i´d recomend asking a buddy for help or join a group to do it.

wow thanks for the awesome tips you're the man !



edit: wow this is so much better ! With power charges i hit 55% crit and do quite a bunch of damage now! Thanks again!

Nice to hear that it´s going better for you now! :)

Have fun slamming your CoC! ;)

Have you ever tried using Frost Wall in your setup? I'd give some nice defense by immobilizing mobs as your are semi-melee.

I tried that!

Its fun but i don´t think its good enough to use it in a serious way...

Hi

I saw your build a few days ago and was really interested so i made one too.
https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Druidys/characters https://www.pathofexile.com/fullscreen-passive-skill-tree/AAAAAwUBBLMFQgj0CaoPqxEPFkAWbxa_GF0Yaho4HRQgbiL0JKomlScvKU8qCzY9Nuk5UjrYPAU9X0GWTLNQMFBCUlNTNVVLWAdZ813yYeJmnmu3bAttGW1scFJw1XKpgpuFfYnTi4yMNo9GkFWSfZMnl5WX9JhvmjuboZ2qn9-iAKyYrKqt8a6ztUjAVMBmwJrQ9dn8217cI-Nq5c_sOO988B_z6vcy99f53frS

Having a lot of fun playing it and was already clearing some easy maps at level 60. But i'm really wondering what are some improvements that you think I should go for, am guessing normal 6 link chest and getting a better sceptre?

I see that you are running a resistance aura, but atm i have all my resistances capped. Any other options for auras, or should i change gear with less resistance more life or smh and then run an extra aura?

Any tips are welcome, the gear i'm currently using cost me about 30c so i am doing pretty well for such cheap gear i think. Im thinking about running vaal flameblast in my boots for some extra damage.

Basically any tips are welcome :D

If you don´t need your resits i would first start looking for a Leather Belt with good Life and Strength roll, its a really big ammount of life to get from a belt.

I would also run a Purity just to increase your defense, i prefere Lightning or Fire as most dangerous bosses deal that type of damage (dominus, piety, Magera)
A Purity not only helps to cap your resits, it grants additional maximum resitances which is a big boost in your defense vs. that element.

Then i´d try to upgrade the amulet, i guess you only need the Dex and Critchance from it, you can get Spell Damage, Life and Crit Multi in this slot on top of the things you have on yours.

Then there is ofcourse the multimodded scepter to get Critchance, Attackspeed, Spelldamage on it.

I´d say that a proper 6link isn´t that important. The only stat you gain from it is the Life and resists if you need them. Armour isn´t really usefull as we have Acrobatics and we would need a really good 5 offcolurs EV Chest to stack up a decent amount of Evasion to make it matter.


And just a question: Do you need 2 Mana Pots?

Poachers Mark should cover your Mana most of the time, i see you did not link Whirling Blades to Blood Magic, so i guess oyu need the 2 pots just to keep whirling while backtracking?

I´d say at least replace one of them with a Hybrid Flask, one Surgeons Manaflask should be enough for any emergency Mana Problems.

Yeah haven't gotten around to changing my potions yet, should i be aiming for attack speed or cast speed? Or both? Not as main stat obviously but, if i have the chance to get it.

Cast speed does nothing.
You cast on crit so faster attacking = more crits in shorter time = faster casting.

So i have gotten a new belt and amulet, but im wondering. I've got enough currency to buy a rat's nest + maligaro gloves.
Or go for a 6 link carcass jack, what do you think that would be the better upgrade. Personally i think the 6 link carcass jack will be the biggest upgrade, but the other 2 items are also very good.

Anyone ? :D
