Any chance this will get an update for 3.11 particularly the slower projectiles speed. What changes would you make with AOE? Looking at POB the build loses 30k.

Nerf to Slower Projectiles affect us a lot. But the dps is still very very high.
I've started working on a new version based on the new Doryani's Protype chest, which seems quite powerful for this build but this will force us to go Life Based.

Will update the guide pretty soon!

Edit: AOE is not needed as Bomb Specialist prived a nice amount of AOE

After the 3.11 changes, the build is still the same.

Slower Projectiles nerf doesn't affect us: Bomb Specialist and Explosive Expert provide enough AoE (Explosive Expert 30% is enough actually) to reach the 13 hit/cast of ball lightning.

Tree has been nerfed a little. we lose almost no ES.
Loss in dps is more consistent, but it's still huge.

If you consider the Endgame Version of the build, each ball lightning average hit went from 650k to 550k. But with the hit cap of 13 hit/cast each ball lightning still make over 7 milions shaper dps. And this is the dps o a single lone mine

Ur build is awesome, i love it so much!

nice, detailed guide, thanks for that. do you think your build is level 100 material, or would you have to get some more defensive layers like dodge/block?

I believe it can reach 100, maybe a few extra layers are usefull, The only layer defensive layer i can see is block, but to max it we lose half of dps and 2.5k ES as well as we are forced to use Aegis Aurora in order to conter Glancing Blow.

This would be the PoB

I'd stick with the "normal" tree


Just for "fun" i've designe a life based version based on the new chest, Doryani's Prototype, 5k HP 300k average hit, 75% phys reduction

Great Guide,

Actually im using 6 slot Ball lightning/Minefield/Awakened light damage/Trap and Mine damage/Awakened Elemental Focus/High Impact Mine Support; do you think slower projectile still better instead of any gem? Im kinda lost on how to maximize mi dps on the 6 slot.

Thanks

No doubt about Slower Projectiles, with the AoE we get from Ascendancy we cover the lack of speed reduction and we still reach the hit cap of 13 hit/cast.
I'd remove minefield for Slower Proj

First time trying LL mines and i feel somewhere i fucked up this build. Damage too low.
Can You please check my pob? https://pastebin.com/CRhwmvKy

Your build looks perfectly fine to me.
they only changes i can suggest is Demolition Specialist over Born in Shadows.

I've also dropped minefiled for added lightning damage (better if awakened).
But this only when you use 2 medium cluster jewels both with Guerrilla Tactics and Surprise Sabotage

Check this PoB

Got Awak add lightning just a hour after i wrote last message. Yep its much more better vs solo target but on maps w minefield w/o ele focus my leech so low so im feeling myself too much uncomfortable.
Yea i know i have a low crit chance w/o bottled faith but mb should i anoint some leech node(light eater) instead of tranquil or its doesnt worth it, im ok with 7.4k ES atm and cant spent ~2.5ex before bottled faith.
I have tried Demolition Specialist and i figured out i cant play w/o blind=)
