[3.7] Sidefx Frost Blades CHAMPION varient (strongest by far) Great League starter!

 

 

Introduction/Mechanics:

This build focuses on high attack speed to unleash a series of projectiles high crit chance and amazing attack speed in a almost 360 radius around you , killing everything that dares come close.

The weapon range increases with each level of Frost Blades , so even if it is a melee skill , with good positioning , you will be out of harms way most of the times you`re in a fight.
It is a full Elemental build at 100% cold conversion , dealing no physical damage , therefore physical reflect mods will not affect you.

Clear speed wise , whilst not competing with Vaal builds , it is faster than most builds out there and somewhat cheaper.

Just a 4-Link setup can get you up to T10 maps if you`re careful.

This is a Softcore build. If you want to play Hardcore , just make sure you pick more Life nodes rather than Damage nodes.

 

6-Link Setup

Frost Blades -> Weapon Ele Dmg -> Multistrike -> Ancestral Call/Ruthless -> Hypothermia -> Melee Physical
In 5l you sub out Hypothermia ( NO ICE BITE IS NOT BETTER) AOE/Trash use Ancestral Call - Bosses Sub in Ruthless

4-Link Setups

• Herald of Ice -> Hatred -> Enlighten (4 VERY IMPORTANT work around below!) –> Herald of Purity

Quick Leveling Guide 

- Cleave can be used to level the entire way until level 38 when you get multistrike. 4 Link it when you can with onslaught, melee physical damage, and Maim.

- Set up a 4 link Blade flurry for single target with melee phys dmg, conc effect, ele dmg with attacks.

- Use any 1 hand rare weapon with the most flat phys dmg on it. Crit/Attack speed don't matter much at this point though I hate slow weapons personally. Base does not matter at all here either. Claws, Swords, Daggers w/e is fine while EARLY leveling. Once you need leech, you need to have a claw for soul raker passive.

- Use ornament of the east claw as soon as you can and upgrade to bloodseeker claw as soon as you can after that.

- For armor pieces (helm/chest/boots/gloves etc) just try to get a good amount of res and any life you can. The normal Tabula/Goldrim/Wanderlusts always work.

- Use a mana flask until your mana leech is good enough to sustain your skill. Especially for boss fights in which you will run out of mana quickly.

- If it is not the start of a league elreon jewelry while leveling is wonderful. Along with your normal leveling uniques such as: Goldrim, wanderlust, tabula etc.

PoE 3.7 Duelist Agony Cyclone Gladiator Endgame Build

 

 

Playstyle

Lead the way for your Agony Crawler by going through packs and see how your personal Artillery Cannon blasts everything around you. Use Abyssal Cry when it's off cool down, and Tempest Shield and Convocation every now and then. The crawler is immortal and you are not far behind yourself.

 

Gems Setup

Body: Herald of Agony - Pierce - Damage on Full Life - Minion Speed / Minion Damage + Vicious Projectiles + Vile Toxins (45-50% more dmg) / Maim / Empower 4 / Added Chaos

Getting 5 Off-colours on the Calamity can be hard, which is why I've included multiple alternatives for the 6th link.

Gloves: Cyclone - Life Gain on Hit - Fortify - Withering Touch - Faster Attacks - Poison

Note that I get 2 links from my gloves. Poison is a REQUIRED gem so if you don't have the gloves then you need to socket it. Lesser Poison is also a good option until you get an extra 20% chance to poison from gear or jewels.

Boots: Cast when Damage Taken (lvl 1) - Desecrate (lvl 7) - Spirit Offering (lvl 8) - Convocation (must be lvl 6 or above) / Increased Duration

For mapping, recommend Convocation instead of Increased Duration as Proximity Shield mobs will be very annoying otherwise. I Sometimes recolour my boots for Increased Duration when doing Über Elder.

Helmet: Tempest Shield - Curse on Hit - Temporal Chains - Culling Strike

Here you can experiment if you like. I love Temporal Chains but the only thing that's required is really the Tempest Shield. Abyssal Cry is also a valid contender here, especially if you pick up the instant cast warcry cluster.

Weapon: Herald of Purity - Withering Touch - Minion Damage - Maim - Faster Attacks - Melee Splash

Shield: Shield Charge + Faster Attacks + Blood Magic

If you don't use a Curse + Culling setup then you can use the helmet 4L for Shield Charge and throw in Fortify.

Ring: Hatred

The medium budget build will use Determination here instead to get the watcher's eye block. If you want to run Elemental Equilibrium then you want to link Hatred with Generosity, so you doesn't give the enemies +25% to cold resist.

Duelist Slayer Builds

[3.7] The Bringer of Leech (4/27/19 UPDATE) League Starter - Budget - New Player Friendly!

[3.7] Cyclone Slayer Duelist Fast Build

 

[3.7] The Bringer of Leech (4/27/19 UPDATE) League Starter - Budget - New Player Friendly!

Final Gems Setup

- In Bringer of Rain: Blade Flurry - Maim - Infused Channeling - Increased AOE/Conc Effect

- In 3 link weapon: Whirling Blades - Faster Attacks - Fortify

- In boots or gloves: Ancestral Protector - Lightning Golem (or Flame Golem) - Cast When Damage Taken (lvl 13) - Punishment (lvl 16)

- In boots or gloves: Cast when Damage Taken (lvl 13) - Blood Rage (lvl 16) - Phase Run (lvl 15)-Immortal Call (lvl 15)

Another option you can go with if you want to spam Whirling Blades without having mana issues, you can drop the golem:

- In boots or gloves put: Whirling Blades - Faster Attacks - Fortify - Blood Magic

- In a 3 link put: Ancestral Protector - CWDT (lvl 13) - Punishment (lvl 16)

*Important Quality of Life: When you click to assign Whirling Blades to a key, there is an option to make it "attack without moving" This will make your movement skill much easier to use! Trust me! 

 

Path of Building:https://pastebin.com/xieDD0rs

1. 2 Required uniques: Bringer of Rain & Bloodseeker. Both Are Cheap and BIS. Never need to upgrade these two items!

2. On practically no investment you can complete Uber Lab and any tier map + most map mods.

3. Use your currency to fill out atlas and fund your next build or with 2-3 ex investment you can farm Guardians, Shaper and Elder.

4. Tanky! should only die to one-shots. 6 pieces of rare gear to stack health + over 200% increased life from tree!

5. TONS of potential to min/max if you wanna pump currency into it. Upgrades are relatively cheap, since we have so many pieces of rare gear we can shop for 2 mid-high rolled resists on each and focus more on high life and phys damage rolls. Gear really doesn't get stupid expensive until you need 3 res, life and phys dmg with all high rolls.
