Hi, I've been trying to get this build to work but I seem to have bricked my damage somewhere along the way pretty hard. I know my weapon is garbage but when I punch in my items into the mid tier POB I should be hitting around 20mil dps. Then when I load my POB and try and set up the config I'm only hitting about 2.5 mil Shaper DPS which is about how the damage feels in game.

My PoB: https://pastebin.com/vLwLCnHB

I've spent some time trying to figure out where I'm bricked and havent been able to. Reasonably sure I'm doing the right rotation and everything but at best I'm doing maybe 10%-15% of a T14-16 Boss life in a single rotation.

Thanks in advance for the help!



First thing you need to do is go to "configuration" in POB and change "Warcry calculation mode" to "Max Hit". That shows your damage as 10mil per Slam (Damage per Second is worthless to us, Damage per SLAM is more important ^^)

If I then import my weapon for example, without changing anything else, it takes your damage to 23mil. So I would say, getting a better weapon should be a priority.

It also seems that you are using an Anger Watcher's Eye without actually using anger?

Then you should lose the crit notables on your clusters and invest those points in the jewel sockets. Get yourself some life+crit+critmulti jewels, that would be more damage and more life.

Also, take a look at Breathstealers, those will help with damage and survivability, especially in juiced Rituals.

I hope that helps a bit


Can you tell me where I can see damage per slam on POB? Maybe I'm blind but all I see is average damage, attack rate, hit chance, ignite dps, total damage per ignite, combined total damage. Thank you..Im a bit of a POB noob :)


Sure, no problem!
"Combined Total Damage" IS the correct value, if you use the "Max Hit" configuration I described above. If you set it to "Average Hit" instead, the "Combined Total Damage" changes to "Total DPS incl. Ignite" which is not all that helpful for us.

They are *hard*. I failed a few times, but finally got them down at clvl 98 with fairly optimised "early" end-game gear.


Are we talking about maven invitation with breachlords?
Yesterday I did it deathless, my gear is still far from end game (50m dps only)

Thank you for posting this guide, I'll be using this build plan since I exactly got 2 exalts. I've got a question should I not worry about what type of armor I need to buy as long as it has the same effects or not?


didn't quite understand you. Do you mean basic types of armor (astral plate, sun plate etc)?
Oof. Just took me 337 jagged fossils to hit t1 physical. what a relief. so tired of sending PMs for more, lol



Recommendation on what to do next? Aug Attack Speed? Aug second crit? Does it matter I got Global Crit Strike instead of increased Crit Strike chance?

Hey guys, can you tell me what should be the next step? https://pastebin.com/ymSs3uB1

Is it time to unlearn the bottom part of the tree and start grabbing the crit ones? Time to start crafting/getting the clusters and jewells?

I know the gear is meh, im just trying to transition from non-crit.


Please?
Very interesting build, having a blast one shotting stuff in HC so far, reached act 7 very comfortably - thanks!
Bingo bango this is one hell of a guide.
Currently rocking it, thank you my dood!

atk speed, if you can do 20% atk speed it be best for staff

global crit chance increase your stats crit chance
crit chance on staff increases weapon crit chance
both will increase crit chance so not realy matter
now question whos better increases crit chance, this i dont know
but you have crit multiplier, its best what we need for this build

smoking remains are shit (my opinion), try get 2x large cluster jewel whit devastator skill, also cooking alive + something else, but not smoking remains.

What would be better than Smoking Remains? Th Smoking Cloud has little utility since I still do not evade hits, but I could not find anything for sale that would beat the 35% fire damage.
