I just picked up these gloves. I have been wanting to try Impale with this build even though it is not built around it.




Based on PoB, i get like 5m boost if:

large cluster jewels - change fuel the fight and drive the destruction to deep cuts. (if ever deep cuts actually stack too)

change fortify to impale.

I actually still don't understand how impale works, but can someone confirm if just by changing those will actually improve the build not just on paper?

Appreciate if someone can give enlightenment over this. :)

PS: changed to dread banner - gave me 3m more DPS. (this is considering the fact that I don't really place banners for the adrenaline as seen on my PoB)

PS: The large clusters are expensive to just buy em and test out only to know it won't work :D


Impale is an awesome offensive weapon, I have used it in other builds.

But I don't know if I would trade Fortify for it. The defensive part of Fortify is something we will notice if we lose it (20% less damage).

It is a shame the large cluster is expensive because it would be fun to test out for a handful of maps. :)

I believe Deep Cuts does stack (other builds I have seen use multiple copies).

Dread Banner is super powerful but the power comes with placing it. If you are not placing War Banner, you probably won't be placing Dread Banner either.

Maybe next league I might try this out as an Impale version. I still worry about losing constant Fortify defense though.

Although I guess I should consider that with the double cluster setup we also lost the Fortify nodes on the tree....

Gloves with Impale chance are nice add on but Impale gem or making other investments into Impale mechanic (clusters) are absolutely not worth doing on this build since 1/2 damage is fire.

Same applies to Dread Banner...

Losing Fortify from main 6L is no no.


Does anybody have Maim Support equipped? I have stacking Smite the Weak (40% increased attack damage on Maimed enemies and 10% chance to Maim) node from my large clusters and I feel like I am not utilizing both properly.

If so, what gem setup did you put Maim and what did you remove? Thank you!

I have maim linked on flesh & Stone/blood and sand. there's also a node on our tree for a maim chance(dismembering).

@Torstein - Thanks for clarifying. Staying away from impale then. :)

Hey dude. I'm just starting out and so far having a blast. However, I've loaded up Path of Building and tried your pastebin link on Import Tree and it's saying 'Invalid Tree Link'. Is this because of a version difference between current PoB and that which you used do you think?

Cheers.


can you post what link you used? I am having no problems with this link from the original post (this is the tanky version)

https://pastebin.com/S2miXNKG



It was the one posted originally above by the OP: https://pastebin.com/RKw9PRFu

The one you shared is not working for me either. I'm doing it right aren't I? Bottom left on PoB > Import Tree > paste pastebin.com link and Import?

On POB, you start in Upper Left, not bottom left.

On Upper left there is a Button labeled Import/Export Build. Click that.

That will bring up a new screen. The top half of the new screen is labeled Character Import and the bottom half is labeled Build Sharing. Focus on the bottom half.

In the bottom half look at the bottom right, you will see a button labeled Import From Pastebin. Put the Pastebin link in that location and click the button and it will pull in the build for you.

Yeah, the change is way too big for now if I understand it correctly. The stat on my glove is nice a "extra" but not worth building around this late.

To focus on Impale, Herald of Ash needs to go, Infernal Blow needs to change to a pure physical attack, and the armor needs to be different, Oni needs to change etc. We basically have to remove all fire from build to focus on physical.

The tree of the build would be similar though. I may theory craft between leagues just to see what it would look like out of interest.

Doesn't matter what you do, half of the damage will be fire because of Her Embrace buff.

Yep. would need to go for a foil, or perhaps saviour/paradoxica. nonetheless, its a completely new build i think.

Exactly.

Since it is so different from this current amazing build, we should probably not discuss it here any more out of respect to Torstein, and just focus on his amazing build.
