General Discussion - [Worst skill challenge] Shield charge is the winner!! currently A1C - Forum

Decoy totem, using tukohama war's herald to deal damage. Trypanon + hierophant (4 ancestral protector totems) + CoC. Non-elemental golem build. Summon chaos golem, x3. Summon skeletons, also pretty bad. Ohhh I know the worst. Incinerate. It's so bad now :D Never underestimate what the mod community can do for PoE if you sell an offline client.

Shield Charge. I defy you. I dare you. Theres no way this works. Waiting for a descent league thats entirely a huge, neverending ledge style map with only "undead rhoas of fervor" in it.	Posted by Andrermpocai on Mar 29, 2016, 2:44:44 PM Quote this Post

Some ideas: Shield Charge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OO1zvMVfrjM Elemental Hit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtjoVvGCSWE Note, Elemental Hit is also a pretty awesome skill to use with the Elementalist's "Mastermind of Discord". Face it, all of your suggestions are worse than this idea: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/657756	Posted by dudiobugtron on Mar 29, 2016, 3:07:56 PM Quote this Post
" kahzin wrote: Oh I have a few ideas :D 1) Fire Nova Mine - Trust me, this one will make you go crazy. It even feels quite good for a while up to a point where you realize that you don't have any single target damage. 2) Shrapnel Shot - I don't really think that it's bad, neither do I think that it's good. To be honest, I've just never ever seen someone using it, lol. 3) Shield Charge - This may count as a gimmicky movement skill but hell I'd love to see a build around this. 4) Burning Arrow - It's not really bad but I havn't seen it being used for years. 5) Conversion Trap - No words needed here 6) Tempest Shield - Yes, you can actually deal damage with it. Would be so awefully slow :D 7) I'd kinda like to see a 4 or 5 Totem Searing Bond char aswell. Searing Bond is not a bad skill imho but it could be interesting. 8) Lightning Warp Totems - Because there's nothing close as cool as lightning warp totems in this game. /EDIT: If you need me to put a single vote than count me in for Shield Charge. Elemental Hit would be pretty damn boring imho. This thread is fucking stupid. It's basically turned into "Pick the other 400 skills that streamers don't swear by". The majority of gems mentioned in this thread have already been used in builds. Fuckin' Christ, there's a Skeleton build on the first few pages of the Witch forum. Do you people look before you post? For a truly useless skill, pick something obvious like Whirling Blades or Flame Dash. WB has pitiful damage at all levels and sucks for single target and AoE. I've never seen a build get to Merciless off just WB. Flame Dash is in an equally shitty scenario except it has charges. If you're reading this, I'm probably on another year-long ban. Thanks GGG.

Im gonna have to go with shield charge as well. Also, you should prolly take tendrils off that list, its quite endgame viable. One of my chars (AccountStolenByHackers) uses it to pretty devastating effect. HAIL SATAN!	Posted by tramshed on Mar 29, 2016, 3:35:47 PM Quote this Post
Shield Charge for sure. Getting AoE onto it is the first hard part. Melee Splash, either Ele prolif or Elementalist's prolif will get the AoE into decent shape, but... Targeting. Short of getting 2948092480% increased movement speed and teleporting onto enemies (and thus making a shitty version of Flicker Strike), the build will fall apart when it can't reliably hit anything. Good luck! --- Elemental Hit actually works in a very strange way for exactly one build. Run a Quill Rain, Elementalist with Mastermind, and Orb of Storms. Mastermind means you penetrate 20% of all resists (since Elehit is all elements, same with WildStrike and Discharge). Quill Rain OoS proccing doesn't care about the on-hit damage, so L1 ele hit works and has the lowest mana cost. Pew pew pew and spam out a ton of OoS bolts.

They're not "active" skills, so this may be disqualified, but you should try to make the trigger gems (Vengeance, Reckoning, Riposte) viable. I'm attempting it as an Endless hunger+Retch max block super leeching Slayer. I've killed everything since level 10 or so with the counters (used cleave until I had support gems for the counters). That includes Normal Izaro, and all the act bosses (Malachai was... interesting). I'm 52 with the character, and have died a few times to completely avoidable things (like eating a Vaal slam to see if I could, literally walking away from the computer in the middle of a rogue exile+rare monster strongbox, etc). It's also pretty fun to be able to watch everything die while eating popcorn. :P You call into the void. You hear a sound in the distance.

I thought of a coc build using vengeance+reckoning with a tripanon ZiggyD is the Labyrinth of streamers, some like it, some dont, but GGG will make sure to push it down ur throat to make you like it	Posted by Sexcalibure on Mar 29, 2016, 5:07:15 PM On Probation Quote this Post
