Hey. Your POB for Shaper DPS includes intimidated but where is the source? Is this the error?

But I tried my Standard character on this build. So far it seems good and I use belt of the deceiver. Weird enough, using belt of the deceiver doesn't increase damage on POB. Is this another error?

Hello, the POB is a bit old so things may have randomly errored over time. Intimidate (https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Intimidate): you can get it from the belt of the deceiver but you may have to toggle it on the tab for it to work properly.

Hype for Delve! :D (Awaiting Patch Notes)

Any thoughts on the new minion accuracy gloves? Seems like they'll give SRS builds a lot more freedom on how they want to structure themselves.
EDIT: And, reading the changelog, all the minion accuracy on the tree. Lyco seems less necessary now.

Oh thank you Huy!

3.4 is looking good with minion accuracy and minion speed. Maybe we can drop minion speed with spell echo for smoothly clearspeed.

I played around with POB and new minion accuracy using Victario's Charity. It is pretty damn good for budget build(not using Lyco and Scourge). But I see that Lyco and Scourge still give highest dps possible regardless.


I am so going SRS as starter now.


https://pastebin.com/AhhdVHYb (Budget's 150k per SRS at Shaper DPS) is the one im probably going to use unless OP have better build in the mind.


I use Covenant in my build btw. I think I can get 5k-5.5k Life with mediocre gear.
Because of the blood magic on Covenant, it is necessary to swap mana flask with defensive flask.
I have a lot of jewel sockets there and there. I think for the starter, I could use some of more life nodes instead of these jewel sockets since I am gonna use Covenant.

For clearspeed setup, realistic dps per srs could be around 30k to 50k with Spell Echo and Melee Splash if I use flesh/vaal haste or not.

Is it really worth to use Ruthless over Empower?

I thought that was a PoB noob trap

I tried this build, and really wanted to feel good about using it, but... I can't.

I put it together on standard where I happened to have the scourge and the shield (but the new minion damage 1h's would be better, if expensive to get it with castspeed).

Anyways, my gear wasn't optimal for it, so I only was running about 4500k life, but that wasn't the problem. The problem is getting enough casts out in a longer fight. The cast speed nerf with mistress of sacrifice is kinda huge, spell echo costs too much in the DPS, and having to recast the spirits meant stationary time.

Compare it to the new skeleton's which are now fast enough, can be cast in packs of 5 with minimal investment, and last longer, even with putting points in duration nodes, compared to SRS.

Basically its a meme build, and I was able to clear some higher maps with it, but no better than a skeleton build, with a lot more casting time which slowed clear speed as well. Its better in open maps where the spirits will travel very far killing as they go, but in maps with rooms, it took a lot longer.

I can't imagine trying the guardians going well with the limited defenses and trying to recast 20 RS's while playing the dodge the one shot game.

Side note SRS is hilarious with the Queens's escape, they were lasers speed wise.

Lycosidae you definitely will be before the shaper, so I still advise you to use it, because 77% of the accuracy is small, and the DPS that is shown in the POB is not entirely correct, because it considers the loss of DPS, but its NEGATIVE.
victario good shield to lycosidae, but if you prioritize:
tabula -> victario -> lycosidae -> scourge -> etc

Why no "Death Attunement"?

I posted this near the top of the guide, but just in case (for a heads up):

3.4 Early Notes

Hi everyone,

There are a lot of interesting options from what I've read of the Patch Notes. I have some ideas involving the new mechanics and items that will be available, but it's still a bit early for me to know how it will work out. I'll definitely let you guys know once things become more clear.

Feel free to go wild and experiment. In fact, please do! Let me know how it goes (hopefully with as much concrete details as possible) and share it here.

Let's enjoy Delve~ :)

I've tried it before (especially for a more Spectre Variant of the build) and it was alright, but it ultimately came down to opportunity costs (especially dependent on the jewels you have). Things are kinda in the air right now so I will need to revise the tree and update stuffs soon(tm).

If you use 1+ to gem, empower is definitely 100% better. Otherwise, ruthless is better for bossing when you have prep time to get maximum dps. but I recommend changing Ruthless to melee splash for clearspeed. You could use Multistrike instead of Ruthless for less prep time you get such as for Uber Lab where you can't even use vaal haste and vaal lightning trap. It's quite situational. You gave me some insight about this. Thank you.

Even so, if the dps is incorrect, dps is still enough for Shaper honestly. Probably 100k instead of 150k if what you said is accurate.

Either way, I did say Lyco obviously give you highest DPS possible. With Lyco, I could drop some minion accuracy nodes but that would be ineffective since most of these nodes contain valuable benefits such as minion speed/damage. It's difficult to determinate if the loss of dps caused by the lack of accuracy is less than dps what POB say. Do you have any source to that info you just said?
