Grats. FYI, I don't think Additional Chaos Damage mods on your rings do anything for DP.

"to attacks". I'm dumb.
Hello!

First of all thx for the awesome guide, it helped me a lot.
On its basis I've decided to build a crit version - everything is going smoothly T15 bosses = no sweat.
BUT I've stumbled upon a problem which is Chimera and Mino...
Chimera ain't much of a problem by itself but that damn dog can basically oneshot me and I can survive one or two seconds in cloud phase.
Mino, I don't know if it's about mods but again one rock on the head and I'm dead...

Despite everything the build is SUPER FUN to play but I'm looking for advice to optimise it to it's full potential. Any idea on what to change? Some other gems maybe? I just feel like I'm lacking some chunk of DPS.

If you're getting one-shot by anything that's not Uber Atziri, then your problem is you don't have enough Life/defense; lacking some chunk of DPS is the least of your worries. You do 0 DPS if you're dead. Try sacrificing DPS for Life, Armor, and/or Enfeeble.

Change your gem link Blasphemy - AM - CoH to something else. CoH doesn't help you here because you're not supporting a skill to cast the curse. BTW Storm Cascade triggers CoH.

You can swap out Devoto's for more Life and Armor during Minotaur fight (I'm not really a fan of the item anyway, but then again I don't use Kaom's Roots either). You pretty much just sit there and hold down DP as long as you aren't standing in lightning. If you use a totem, cast it on his feet so he doesn't burrow.

Bring an instant life flask for Chimera's cloud phase. You should always be using at least 1 anyway in the case you run into a Trial. The rest of the fight, you just sit there and hold DP. If he does his multistrike AoE, just use a defensive flask and don't stop DPing.

hi,
what do you think about the covenant spidersilk robe? would that be much weaker?
Hey,

ty again for this guide. made it to lvl 94 now and farmed alot for my new chest and helmet.

Here is my "end"gear. Farming for an 21/20 added chaos and that should be it.



There is more room for damage on the shield, but mine has a ton of resists.
Maybe better jewels and rings and amu, but this build melts guardians. So no need for more damage, i think. I have 8.375 life currently. Ty again and have fun.
pls cut the shitty Sirusboss out of the game

Ty essence of envy lol
So I was a long time inconsistent PoE player who is now a very very consistent player, the last few months ive been playing at least 4 hours every day and 8-10+ on the weekends. This League I have been farming a ton and want to get [my first character to level 100, currently 95.](https://www.pathofexile.com/my-account)

So I have been using this build and have been loving it. Thank you very much for this guide. It bought me to like PoE more then ever before! I switched around a few items for faster/more loot farming. Anywho, on my character DarkZerkin I die from time to time even with just shy of 8k life pool and being level 95 now I really want to try and avoid dying at almost all costs. Would like to keep the Brightbeak and biscos but besides those I feel my gear its hard for me to upgrade looking on poe.trade.

I started looking on the forums for other builds and found a few that looked very good and might be worth adjusting some gear/passive points and switching over to. I'm not the best with understanding how to use PathOfBuilding but I was playing with that and plugging in some different tree points and seemed I got a lot more damage with one of the Crit DP's builds without even changing any gear and keeping same life. Here's one of the builds(https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1970979) I was looking at and here is another one.(https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1944675)


What are your opinions and what do you guys think would be the best option for me regarding what to do? I have a big chunk of currency to work with so that wont be an issue and willing to spend a lot on this.

I really appreciate any and all help/opinions and looking forward to hearing from you all!

Hello! Wanted to start off by thanking you for such a great build. I've never made it further than Atziri, and today I just beat all 4 guardians. When I try shaper, I run out of life pretty often. My dps also seems to be a bit low (450k on pob). Any tips for gear upgrades? Thanks.
