Hi zorker, I'm looking at your character and saw you're using damage on full life on the links of the lighting coil. Is this link final or is just for easiness of coloring the coil?

Also, what is better, assa mark as you have it in your char or snipers mark?


It is because of the easier coloring. Damage on Full Life or Awakened Lightning Pen or both good. If I had 3 blue, 2 red and 1 greed I would use Awakened Lightning Pen again.

Why do you guys use two different totem setups. One in helm and one in body armor...


If you have your PS clearing setup (Pierce, 10% chance to Return) you can use only PS. Before that PS cannot clear well. Totally up to you. I am a huge fan of KB clear though. And it helps on very fast moving targets. PS+Barrage has issues with fast moving targets. Sure you could remove Barrage for that target to increase the chance of hitting it.

Freeing the sockets could add space for Shield Charge for example. Not sure what else is interesting.

Currently testing this setup. So far I like it.

The Berserk switch is quite expensive and only worth it if you really are enjoying the build. It requires precise gear to work since you need >8 rage gen (basically life regen helmet enchant and a life regen/life regen rate on belt/boots or via tatoos if that is possible)

But it gives you a very high Berserk uptime. If you can get it to work it makes the build feel even smoother since the attack speed is a more multiplier. You get movement speed and defensive on top too. But of course it is another button.
What do you think about using a shield with 35% + block, % mana recovered on block, + 1 totems, and glancing blows on the tree before switching to LC/font of thunder and switching out my normal granite for a rumis?

Hoping to get some help on why my DPS is so low... https://pobb.in/HxTtbDrpy1tz

I am comparing to similar levels on poe.ninja and seeing that I have <30% less damage than similar characters and I cannot nail down why.

Next step for me was crafting the 4div wand but I had an extra prefix on it and tried to do another veiled chaos orb not thinking and rolled over the 4div of bench crafting I had on there.

Cannot yet afford the other unique jewels as they are 12div for the Sublime Vision and 9div for Impossible Escape currently.

I also realize I am missing two Awakened gems in my PS set up but how could that make up 1m+ dps?

The other thing I am noticing is my mana pool is lower than other set ups.. I am wondering if I got the wrong Glorious Vanity jewel.

This is the other character I was comparing to but almost all on the poe.ninja have higher listed DPS than I do currently - https://poe.ninja/builds/ancestor/character/Skatesrage/AncestorSkates?i=6&search=class%3DHierophant%26uniqueitems%3DLightning%2BCoil%26skills%3DAnomalous%2BPower%2BSiphon

I also am not sure my defenses are up to par as I am definitely dying my fair share. I thought once I switched to coil + Glorious Vanity + Font of Thunder I would be face tanking almost all. Is there something I am missing? Perhaps the last bit of Chaos res? Or will this all come together once we are on Sublime Vision?

Lastly, what are we looking for on the few non-unique jewels that we have?

Apologies for the lengthy post, but thanks in advance for any advice on how to improve this build before I give up and try something else.

Update: resolved the issues pointed out in the below post and now am feeling much better. Didn't realize that having the chaos res cap and accuracy were that important. Thank you!

Edit 2: my new pob for reference https://pobb.in/8uqw75PSTzL5

* You have not capped your chaos resistance. This is crucial when using Divine Flesh. You convert alot of elemental damage to chaos.
* The second part is accuracy. Without Precision you have to factor in accuracy on gear.
* You are totally overcapped on dexterity without need.

Personally I am not using Sniper's Mark any more and instead Assassin's Mark since it eases the dexterity requirement.

You can use Bloodrage at 10/20 until the dex you have.

You have a whole 30 dex node specced for nothing too atm. Get rid of that asap. :)

Get chaos resistance. Get accuracy on tree (templar start), use Ice Golem instead of the Ligthtning Golem. Get a good accuracy ring. Ease up on dexterity.

I need some help with this build. From the notes i read that I should have ~3M DPS. I have a lot less than that and I am wondering what am I missing. Can someone have a look at my character and says what I am doing wrong?

I found your issue. Sorry I nearly choked. You are using "Barrage" skill gem, not Barrage Support in your Power Siphon setup. How have you not noticed the Barrage skill gem in your links?!

Critical Strike Chance and Attack speed on a weapon are so called "local" mods. They work as a more multiplier on the weapon stats itself.

Get a way better Piscator. They cost like nothing: https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Ancestor/P9ymlQ7cL

Get a level 21 Power Siphon. A 21/20 does not cost much. Important.

20 Power Siphon = 7 projectiles
21 Power Siphon = 8 projectiles
21/20 Anomalous Power Siphon = 9 projectiles

Get better gems (and alternate quality ones maybe) for your main setups.

After that you are more than gucci.

First issue. You forgot to add Precision.


It is part of the red map setup since we have so much mana that a little bit for Precision is no issue and fixes all accuracy problems.

Secondly: Your amulet is missing Watchtower annoint. Your gloves is missing Panopticon annoint. You are missing 2 totems.

I highly suggest speccing into Dynamo over Heart of Thunder. Damage is plenty.
