[2.3] King's "Close Stalker" - Blast Rain + Puncture Trap + 50/25 Block [HC and Atziri deathless]

Apologies if the question is stupid, where is the additional Spell Block coming from? The quiver gives ~15% but I see your defense stats up to 26%.

Rumi's flask provides additional spell block :)

I'm currently Lv87 PHC with this build. It's great for solo and lab runs, but tapers off a bit when more people join. I took accuracy with my variant. It doesn't affect damage very much since my crit chance is so low (10-20%), but it lets me refresh my Endurance Charges/Power Charges which is fun.

My final stats:

5.9k HP, 18k Armour, 2.9k Blast Rain Tooltip Unbuffed (4.5k Blast Rain Tooltip Buffed)



Cheers for the build!

Just want to say thanks for the build. This has been one of the most enjoyable builds I've played in POE. I made a few changes to suit my playstyle, but overall its still pretty much your concepts. I'm currently lvl 90 PSC, and not really having issues with any content I've tried, all the way up through yellow T15 maps. I tried out the Vaal Burning arrow variant, but switched back to puncture because I hated being limited to 3 throws and having to get souls every new map. I was lucky early in the league, and chanced a Skyforths which sold for 18ex. I was able to buy a 6L Chin Sol and 6L Daresso's, which makes this a heck of a lot easier. Having 2 8L attacks (with IG and PB from the tree) is a lot of fun. I went for crit in my tree, and I got to 46% crit chance on my puncture. I'm not sure if I could get more overall damage using rapid decay, but I like having 1 of every 2 traps crit. I went Mara Berserker for Ascendancy class, taking Rite of Ruin, Crave the Slaughter, and Aspect of Carnage. Again, thank you, its been a "blast"

Damn, nice gear :)

Glad you like it! Nice enchantments btw

Glad you're enjoying it :) Next step - 6L Chin Sol!

Try and find 6S one and just sink all fuses in it as you play, you'll get it eventually.. It's not that hard to 6L something if you give it a try, it's just that people usually use 200 fus and give up :)

Hey man just wanted to say good work with the tree, gave it a shot and I'm absolutely loving it. Changed mine up a bit and just figured I'd share.

Dropped the Lioneye's idea, it's good, but with avatar of fire I didn't feel like it was giving me as much. So dropped the points and moved around the tree to grab the same amount of life regen and extra charges and some sockets.

With that change though scaling phys is a no go so I'm now mostly upping damage off of WED, and that opens up dropping conc effect and using ele focus to boost damage without loosing the clear radius or the overlap for bosses.

Right now at level 70 I'm sitting at 4.1k life and about 17k armour with okayish gear and with 6k dps before 5 frenzy charges on blast rain and pushing 10k with charges.

Planned lvl 100 tree (build works way before then.


Thanks for the guide man it helped a lot and I'm absolutely in love with it.
