Build of the Week: Season 2 Episode 2

This build looks absolutely terrible. What boxes does this tick?

• Fragile, very low health and virtually zero armour (RiP).
• Mana intensive, absolutely requires clarity which tells you something about the state of traps and mines (hint: trash).
• Slow clear speed, painfully slow even for a cheap self-found build.
• No life leech and low life regeneration, not even remotely viable in the most basic maps or end game content (unless corpse runs is considered a viable strategy).

Seconded. This build specifically seems like a poor choice whether you're a new player and/or in a new league or not. I hope none of the people saying it's going to be nerfed are serious about that, it's an underpowered character not overpowered. Traps and mines in general are pretty good though despite most of the new passives being about as worthless as the old ones.

Next week is builds that trivialize the hardest content?


In b4 a million submissions of aegis aurora block builds.

Inb4 nerf to that build of the week :D

QFT, I remember the first build of the week nerf. Facebreakers. Since then I dread a build I play being showcased.

When something becomes fun, this game, like most, nerf it.

It's the bane of all online games.


Is it fun? NERF!

Yet Facebreaker builds are very viable right now.

Why do people write stupid comments about this build? "This build isn't end game build, it can never do maps" etc etc..

You can also write your opinion without being rude.

Dude, have you even looked at the rest of the comments in this thread?

I applaud the effort but this doesn't show the true potential of a mine/trap build. Also Mine/Trap/Totem Incinerate is one of the most damaging things I have done end game.

I think i'm going to try it, looks fun!

Love the build of the week series

Crosspost from feedback.

Every season I share feedback regarding schedule and every time it got worse. I can't comprehend the latest schedule.



What the fuck is this? 7 weeks full of this crap.

After Europe needs more races in the evening thread as it contains dev response I was hoping some improvement but, NO.

This is the first time I actually got angry something related to PoE. Good fucking work GGG, congrats.

Old post

This had to be a joke. 3 races per week at most if someone has to work. I call that bullshit.

I wish I knew where the original post was, so I could yell at you there. First off, how do you get 3 races per week? Just taking the 6pm and 10pm (for you) slots, there are 7 races per week. Second, compared to my evening time zone races (yours are 11am and 3pm for me), you have more races than I do. Couple of my weeks only have 5. Third, every four hour block is roughly like that, which means they're pretty evenly spread out for a world-wide audience.

Sorry to aid and abet in being off topic, but ignarsoll's post is just retarded and wrong and he's getting pissed about it. That type of ignorant, reactionary, over the top bullshit is what is wrong with a lot of people, and a huge portion of the posts I read on these forums.
