It's because PoB dps values are only for 1 ball, so the 500% more is for the 6 balls with the +3 enchant helm, it would be +300% with the new +1 enchant or +200% without any enchant, the 290% is from the .25s cooldown on the pen casting itself, which again PoB doesn't take into account.


Thanks! That's what I wanted to know.
Is there a reason why you took herald of ice over herald of ash? Considering this is a fire build that gem confused me. Be interested to hear your reasons behind it. Great build though, just respeccing a char into it.

anyone know how much attack speed do i need on frenzy ? i mean theres a cap or something or i can keep going? more atk speed more dps?
gj! I'am playing with oskarm nubuck gloves for power charges and blas-warlords mark for leech.
Maybe I'll drop the gloves, and use frenzy+power charge on crit @ carcass
I'm using Oskram like the previous poster to apply my Assassin's Mark, but I'm also running an Essence Worm for Anger, and stacking mana and going MoM to be extra durable. This doesn't permit me to run another aura/herald/blasphemy curse comfortably, so instead I'm considering going up and grabbing the extra curse passive (~6-7 passive points), and running the Warlord's Mark as the Curse on Hit on my frenzy. This also puts me in range of grabbing some more crit/multi nodes for spells near avatar of fire.

Gem set-up would be Frenzy - GMP - Curse on Hit - Warlord's Mark - Culling Strike. Maybe Power Charge on Crit as the 6th link for better sustain of power charges against bosses, or else Life Gain on Hit for even more life sustain in general.

Not to worried about a 6-link (and even can drop culling to use a 4-link for Kaoms), since I'm also considering using a Storm Prism and Jaws of Agony (Ice Trap + Multi Trap + Cluster Trap) on my weapon swap to generate power charges, and the +1 max power charges, before a boss fight, and likely picking up at least one extra power charge on the tree. So 5 power charges to start off a boss fight, which isn't too shabby.

Tree would look a bit more like this.

so if im going to test the build with another skill i only use the 290% from the .25s?

like im trying to test with cascade / bladefall+EK

Yes, I'm uploading maps t15, t13. Minotauro I have only the last part of the fight (technical problems of internet / pc)

Where can I get leech without that watcher's eye you have that doesn't seem to exist anywhere on the market?

Does the build work as well without it? Seems really nice to have.



Yes, it works! It has less sustain but there are many alternatives to be able to create something good. Many players are saying that they use different Rings or Auras. It's just a matter of trying and seeing how it works for you.

These jewels are good for our build. http://poe.trade/search/osisikahihotau This is qol change for this build, really, but if u dont have enough money then buy a shaper/elder ring with life on hit or a thief's torment ring, that should be good too.(but then u cant use another ring, so resists capping maybe an issue)


Exactly, Having that jewel is very good for the build, but at this moment it's too expensive. So you have to look for other alternatives. At the moment I'm far from getting it lol.

Herald of Ash: Grants a buff providing fire damage based on your physical damage. It does not work in this build.
Herald of Ice: adding cold damage to spells and attacks. If you shatter an enemy, they explode and deal AoE cold damage to enemies near them.
This is the reason why I use Hoi.

The attack speed is used to generate VD faster. What I'm looking for is to have jewels with attack speed + 5% chance to gain Onslaught for 4 seconds on Kill etc.

They are good alternatives, each one must contribute to his build and play according to his style. I hope you continue to report on your ideas. Thank you

i've a question, I saw in poe trade many helmets with 3 additional corpses post nerf, are they "Legacy" or its a visual bug?
