Spark Cast on shock Lightning Conduit - Melts T15 Maps and endgame bosses
|
Hey guys Im Angren and was mostly a Diablo4 Content creator but want to switch my focus to POE2 now.
I played POE1 for around 5k hours before I stoped and also playing ARPG games since 1997 so im REALLY hyped for poe! It is a build that is mainly for softcore! YT Guide: Spark Cast on shock Lightning conduit Everyone plays spark this early access with sorceress! Im also playing Arc but I added Cast on shock with lightning conduit into it. And it works wonders, it completely melts bosses thanks to stacking shock magnitude and the high burst of Lightning conduit while maintaing the excellent Clear from spark. Core functions of the build: Core functions of the build is: 1. Stack mana with archmage and constant gale 2. Get extra ES from mana trough everlasting gaze 3. Get CI for chaos immunity 4. Convert all Energy shield trough Eldritch battery for huge dmg gains 5. Get Mind over matter for your primary DEF 7. Flat energy shield and % Energy shield(gear for off, tree for def) 8. chance to shock 9. Shock magnitude and spreading shock for more Cast on shock procs. 10. Nuke bosses with Cast on shock Lightning conduit and Spark Damage. Pros: +Amazing for maps - perfect for breaches etc +great single target +dont need crazy gear +can easily farm t15+ +Offscreen clear cons: -Mana stacking gear is expensive -Needs everlasting gaze to enable true potential -Single target can feel lackluster when your Cast on shock doesnt proc If I forgot something or you have some questions plz write/ask it in the comments!
Leveling
take this charplaner for leveling: I added the Leveling Skills / Skilltree from the other charplaner into this so you dont have to respec your points! look unto the tab beneath the skill gems Full charplaner on mobalytics so for your Level Setup: before arc: spark - pierce - x ember fussiliade - x flamewall should be enough in act1 to melt everything Very important!!! With lvl 31 get Mana tempest ASAP as it will be your main dmg boost, it will give you crazy amounts of lightning damage that will solve your single target problem until you get cast on shock comet! with arc: Arc - controlled desdruction - Unleash Multi target spark - pierce - arcane tempo curse: conductivity - heigtehened curse - focused curse / hex bloom flamewall - fortress orb of storms - chain raging spirit - fire infusion / x Mana tempest (gem at lvl 31) - inspirtation - murderous intent rota -> cast curse -> cast firewall -> cast orb of storms -> cast spark / arc if you have mana tempest cast it in between Dont go for mind over matter, only in the endgame so as we all know now the AE Dmg is good but the Single target was the real problem, unfortunately I had to switch around the half of my skilltree went from the left side of the tree to the right side, and I speced in two nodes, 30% inc dmg when we shock 30% inc dmg when we ignite, thanks to the spark flamewall combo we do this very often so this will boost our dps. at the beginning take path of shocks then breath of lightning then echoing thunder + flames then all the lightning nodes (lightning quick etc) When you have the Cast on shock gem and link it to comet ( you should be in a pretty good spot for your boss play: cast flamefall, conductivity, orb of storms and then spam arc, with that combo I manage to down the single target encounters atleast not that bad. so sry guys that there were some shifts around but with this setup you should be able to reach the goal to Cast on shock and when you get comet well... then its just spam your shock skills until comet kills everything
skilltree
Only take mind over matter when you have mana to sustain both your Casts and also your Dmg taken from your mana! get some mana regen nodes and mana nodes first and also maybe Arcane surge. I will update the skilltree when Im POE2 is live and I will also include this into pob as soon as it will get released Leveling Charplaner - (Old dont use it only if you already went into the tree - you need to respec points in order to switch to the Endgame setup) Also take this charplaner for leveling: I added the Leveling Skills / Skilltree from the other charplaner into this so you dont have to respec your points!

Just committed all my gold to switch to this. How do you deal dmg around level 20? Just started Act II and I have no damage, nor resistance, considering that all the points that were devoted to mana nodes (most of them) are worthless at this point, without mind over matter

" So first get archmage as soon as you can. but before archmage play with ember fusillade - controlled destruction - Ignition / other support gem as your single target for bosses when you have arc use that in combinqation with ember fusillade for your single target spark - conduction / pierce - unleash as your multi target use orb of storms - arcane surge to enhance your spark and frost bomb for freeze. for your gear / res / life try to use your currency obs and get your res trough your gear by using your orbs, and always move while you cast your ember and max your ember to 6 stages and then cast spark. and try to get to mind over matter as fast as you can get |

" What's the earliest level you can craft this? |
|
|
shouldn't you go Eldritch battery?
|

" thanks! Spark was my most favourite skill in poe1 xD yep will do an update guide on yt how you solve early struggles before you get archmage and will also update this guide along my way until the endgame :) |
|
" yeah but they disabled it because it would be to broken with all the mana nodes haha, it will be renabled later in the EA |
|
" You can gem cut it with lvl 58 so near the end of the campaign Last edited by Angren1991#0758 on Dec 7, 2024, 11:04:44 AM
