PoB DPS low but im crushing red maps?

Hey guys, i'm trying to understand my DPS etc. Nn path of building, but i have some doubts

I see people showing millions of DPS, yet my total DPS is like 82k

Using something of my own with like 6.5k life, triad grips cold conversion DomBlow+HoP


Could use some help, very appreciated

P.S - BodyArmour Utula's Hunger is not calculated, i have like 6.5-6.8k HP

Other info - i've done lvl81-82 breaches as missions no problem (didn't do boss, looked like low dps but mobs were dying quick)

I've never really tinkered in PoB so yea i'm pretty noobish on this one lol

Well the given damage-number is per minion, so first thing is you need to adjust to the correct number. You are probably using like 9 Domination-Minions and 4 Heralds of Purity, meaning your dps would go up from 34k (which was shown to me) to already north of 200k. The effect from Elemental Army is also not calculated yet, and with 100% cold conversion I strongly suggest you incorporate a curse like elemental weakness or frostbite which will increase your dmg by a lot.
the three auras from guardian aren't automatically activated in PoB yet.

You're probably sitting somewhere around 600-850k depending on what buffs are up from what I can see.

Maybe less because you have aura passives that could be messing with it, since i just did the easy thing and turned on level 27 hatred, anger, wrath.

also while mapping you get the 3 magic and 1 rare sentinels from dom blow so that's probably another couple hundred thousand.

About 500k-1mil depending on uptime is what's needed to go through red maps easily from what people say.

Thank you so much guys, appreciated a lot!

So there's nothing "wrong" technically in my PoB, i just needed to add 3 auras

Good call on the frostbite, i'll see what i can do

Have some minion cluster jewels so might tinker on that one as well if i wont RIP lol

There has to be some ways to easily increase DPS to 3-5mil, i'd like to do endgame bosses without being slow in terms of DPS
You made this build yourself or you got a guide to it? I would love to try a Dominating blow build.

I'm a minion ejoyer for the past 3-4k hours of PoE but i hardly touched the giga-endgame because im either dying at lvl 85-95 or just low dps and just enjoy farming (still tryinf to find a mirror, 7k hours or something)

So overall the build-pathing is 80% the same for all minion builds right, i just made a few tweaks

Because of Guardian ascendancy update it made clear to me that i should use elemental dmg minions.
Since i'm SSFHC, i dropped triad grips and went testing, then the Utula's chest dropped so i tweaked my gear

You can say that yes, specifically this build is mine but the BASE is taken long time ago from some streamers (the pathing on the skill tree, first 50-60 levels)

I'm not sure but i think I'm the only one testing Utula's chest via dom.blow+HoP minions

6.8k is amazing and im sure i can push it to like 8k hp, or stay around 7k HP with DPs increases.



It's not hard and you shouldn't need a guide, just look into my gear and PoB

If you have any questions - let me know. I'm not a build builder guider but i might help with something, maybe
Ok thanks =) Will just try and follow you PoB then =)
