[2.6/3.1] Shaper down on budget 5-link - The Debuffing Pizza (Tri-Curse CI Elementalist Flameblast)

I'd be interested to know how GR goes for you, having a bit of ES leech would be a nice QoL bonus but we might need to rework the tree a little to get more leech, thoughts on where you are going to pick up the leech.

I have a spare 26ex lying around and end of league I could buy a neck too.

The discussion regarding GR is shown in the main post. In sum: not worth it. You can pick ZO and some regen nodes instead if you have some spare skill points, and really, really want some regen.

A +1 curse Chayula canl free up the Doedre's ring. You can then wear an elemental dmg + fire dmg ring which gives you 10~15% more DPS boost.

Your char profile is set to private so have no idea about the tree.

Gears are decent except that boots/helmet can have an upgrade.

TC is much better in terms of defense for this build.

Burst damage is an intended mechanism in POE. Having a larger EHP pool is the best way to deal with it.

Oh, privacy settings are quite messed up, now characters should be visible.

Also one major change in the build is that i'm trying to go for Discord instead of Beacon in ascendancy, and use proliferation gem instead of increased area. Still haven't found all trials to go for uber lab.


It seems you go for Discord hoping for more damage. But you sacrifice Beacon so you will eventually lose some serious damage.

Your tree is different from the original tree quite a bit. You've sacrificed 3 slots, and ES/resist/cast speed/flask nodes in order to get ES regen. That's some serious sacrifice for a little gain IMO. So don't be surprised to have a different gaming experience than playing with the original build because your tree and gem setup differ too much...

So I finally hit 20/20 on my Flameblast last night. Super happy, finally get a chance to corrupt my main skill for potential huge damage.

1st attempt


2nd attempt (level 20 flameblast that I manually put 20% on because I didn't want to level another one) (can't link just the gem apparently)


I hate this game.

RIP. Getting Lvl 21 FB is extremely difficult because of the existance of Vaal FB.
This is by far the most interesting build I have ever played.
Just need a little patient and bosses turned to ashes in a blink of eye, I always lol after those unexpected huge damage explosion happened.

I just want to say thanks and gift this song to you, because the play style is most likely the name of this song XD

Yeah, I see, I will respec when in standart just to check which variant plays better. Absence of prolif on bosses can be inconvenient but this 25% penetration ascendancy with faster casting nodes is quite alluring.

Btw can you show your skills/flasks setup by keyboard? I feel that I cant use half of available skills just because of clunky skill binding. Almost never managed to hit vaal discipline when it really needed and dash stays almost unused too.
Hey there just reached level 94 alone in Standard with your build ( 1 death since level 89 ).
Got my level 21 flameblast now and every gems 20/20 + all my jewels with increased damage / increased fire damage and increased area damage.
It still work really great i'm just still having troubles sometimes with guardians depending of map mods and it require a lot of dodging skills ( thanks to decoy that is my best friend for these fights ).
Think i will push a bit further map drops are really great i'm full of t11 to t15 now and mapping give me enough benefit to keep going.

I still find mana management can be a bit hard without the right gears.
Next goals are to get a +1 Chayula and a flameblast or minions enchant on helmet.

Hi. The key binding is shown in the ultimate 6-link setup session. Flasks are bind to 1~5 as default.

Hi. Glad you've made this far with the build. :D

Try to get "mana regen" mod on Shield/Ring. It helps.
