Stress-Free PoE |RIGHTEOUS INCINERATOR: No Required Items, 1-Button Play, SSF League Start-End| 3.15

Question, I have managed to get a helmet with Burning Damage and Concentrated Effect support:



Does that mean I should remove the Burning Damage Support gem from the helmet? Will the gem and helmet mod stack or will they cancel each other and only 1 being used?

Not sure if I should remove the BD gem or not. Sorry if this is a dumb question but I am noob.

Hey Wrecker! I gave up on this league/patch around act 4, until I finally noticed you'd posted this guide. Going back through leveling this, and while the game still feels way more tedious than before thanks to the extra enemy life, I'm leaning hard on Incinerate and looking forward to getting RF sustained.

Definitely not a dumb question. My understanding is that you'll only get the benefit of one Burning Damage/Conc Effect here; how the game chooses whether it comes from the helm or your gem, I'm not sure.

The helm itself looks great! Just be aware that if your actual gems are level 19+, you may be losing significant damage with this since those built-in supports are level 18 (with effectively 0% quality, though that may not matter depending on what you're going for). Regardless, though it's probably obvious, make sure you still have your support gems socketed somewhere so they're still gaining XP.

One more question, what gems should I priorities when using GCP to add quality? I got +20% quality RF already, what are next gems I should try to add quality to?

Hi Guys.

Having fun with the RI, and currently at Lv86.

I have problem with the final LAB (Lab 4), and tips for fellow RI?

Thanks!

Hey, what are your problems? Anything specific you are struggling with? I think I did my final lab around the same level and it went smoothly for me (but maybe I just got lucky). I am using slightly different gem setup and have Shield Charge movement skill (with Fortify support), that helps quite a lot if I get in trouble and need to quickly change location. Maybe that could help.

Remove immortal call. You want to keep full endurance charges up at all times.

Remove shield charge/fortify setup and just use flame dash, get boots with 30 mvmt speed

Remove incinerate setup and use single flamewall or scorching Ray. RF is main damage with EE and EO.

All of this will give you lots of empty gem slots to run additional auras: vitality, clarity, pof, skitterbots/malevolence/spider

Have elemental res all over 100

Have flasks with remove burning and bleeding

Keep moving, avoid standing still, know when to avoid boss mega hits and always run away when things get crazy.

I will try some of these changes. I was thinking about getting rid of Shield Charge + Fortify. For skitterbots I don't really have enough mana.

I will try without Immortal Call and instead just have Steelskin in CWDT slot. I was going to try Swift Affliction Support but then realised I don't have enough dexterity, would need to get gear with more dex to be able to level it up.

I don't play with your characters. I started playing poe with your character. It was a healthy experience. You have shown that it is possible to be, understanding and helpful player. gl

Thanks nocek_czerny!

I'm glad you're still loving PoE! Thanks for taking the time to be so kind. I appreciate it. And the same goes to you! Thanks for being so kind :).

Best path seems to be league start with another build (summoners always ez-looting), farm the items. Then this build could work.

It's not easy finding multiple-linked blue sockets on strength-biased gear. And at league start there's not a lot of chromatic orbs to work with.

At level 55, not anywhere near sustaining RF, so using molten strike. Doing about 1000 dps... After 5 minutes Doedre down 10%. So this boss fight will take roughly an hour. That's with items that seem to synergize with molten strike (increased damage, increased elemental damage, increased projectile damage). I am still hitting the boss with a paper sword.

Too much grind for me.

Edit: I think my leveling game just sucks lmao

Hey oxyclean69!

Sorry levelling isn't going well for you. The first few acts can be slow for sure. If you're having a really rough time after that, then somethings up. Sometimes it's just really bad RNG. You should be able to start flying through the game, no matter you gear, after the first ascendancy.

Just to be clear regarding gear though, you don't have to have Strength based gear. In fact, the filter that I have for my guides focuses on Str./Int. gear for this character as it's easier to chromatic. So maybe that's the issue?My filter also shows all linked items during the campaign. I'm not trying to push my filter on you by any means. Use whatever works for you. Just know that you don't have to have Str. only gear.

Nice helmet furrypurpledinosaur!

In PoE, duplicate things don't stack (for the most part). So with your helmet, Only the strongest Burning Damage Support gem/mod will apply. The other one is wasted. It's not a dumb question at all! It's a tough choice.

Oh awesome internationalfish!

I'm glad you're enjoying it. Hopefully, it treats you well as you get deeper in the game. Thanks, as always, for your kind words :).

With RF builds, I tend to go with the RF support gems first. The damage stuff. The rest don't really have too much value (like increased aura AoE and such).

Hey Endorphins82!

I'm glad you're having a good time :). Nice work getting to 86! If you've followed the guide's setup and are still having trouble with the final lab, you could always try turning off RF and only using Incinerate. The damage is a little slower of course, but you won't die.

Think that could help?
