[3.6] Purifying Flame Inquisitor. Great leaguestarter with endgame potential. (SSF & Budged)

Lot's of possibilietes.

For the converserion problem, you could use

It would enable the use of Hatred to deal massive cold damage - freezing normal rares.


For your leech problem a lab boot enchant is possible, too:


This works very good. It only fails at boss fights without adds, here is drinking time.
But all the fancy damage lab enchants fail there, too - and that the only situation where they make sense, bursting down a boss.

So warlords mark is not needed, either use enfeeble or a more offensive curse like assasins mark.

Speaking of damage, this gem setup

gives you power charges most of the time, especially at boss fights. I'm not playing that clean, so it triggers all the time.

Definetly year. I was using Hrimsorrows early in the league but ran into some problems with resistances and life. Overall my plan was to go for a lowlife version alteron and thats the main reason why i did not go for lab enchants and stuff :D
But your ideas are good additions that were in my thought process quite a few times :D
In the end i did not realy need the leech to take down uber elder somewhat easily. At that point i stopped caring about my gear.

Hyo,
the watcher's eye sounds realy good.
In the skilltree we get 30% conversion through Divine Fury and Divine Wrath. The missing 20%.... well i never got the conversion veiled mod so thats mostly the reason. Would suggest to use it if u have it unlocked.
Might eddit my glove part. Did miss that completely.

Divine Wrath does not convert because Purifying Flame has no <lightning> tag.
There is a small node "Fire Damage and Fire Conversion" next to Serpent Stance. That would work and put us at 75% - and then you could craft 25% on gloves.
At least Elemental Focus support would benefit a lot from 100% conversion.

Edit: The reason I'm thinking about 100% fire conversion is the option of adding Fire Pen (Wise Oak, etc) and dropping the resist-ignoring part. That'd work nicely with Anger, and with Fire Exposure from Wave of Conviction. Looking at poe.ninja there's a lot of different takes on PF. Even within the Inquisitor department. It's not easy!

Interesting thoughts.
I knew there was something with Divine Wrath but thought it was the "added as" that was only for the matching skills. Did not doublecheck the node :D
Might run some more tests through pob on next league launch. Am not really playing anymore this league and am somewhat busy with other stuff.

When you consider using shield charge or whirling blades "Instruments of Virtue " might be interesting for sure. I still would not want to drop "Righteous Providence" even if I do not take "Inevitable judgement" since the crit multi is pretty damn huge, not counting the other benefits of the node.
"Augury of Penitence" might be a good choice but I think it does not outscale the other options. Keep in mind that, with "Inevitable Judgement" and not needing to care about penetration you can use one additional more multiplier.

Hi and nice build!
Do you know if the AoE of the consecrated ground is increased by the AoE support gem???

If you mean the consecrated ground by purifying flame, then yes.
