Enki's Arc Witch - maybe back some day?

You put in a lot of work for a lot of years to try and help new players.

I admit I'd been telling people NOT to use the guide in recent years but not because of anything you did, it was just as you say: Arc has just grown to be a very weak skill which was difficult to scale well.

So I think your decision to remove the guide entirely and turn the first post into a memorial is actually pretty wise and responsible.

Mad respect for past work and present thoughtfulness.

Hi Enki, just seen that you're moving on from POE. Just wanted to say thanks for this guide - the original arc witch (back when Inpulsa's was a thing) was the first build I ever took past A10 and into maps. I usually credit you and your guide with my proper introduction to the game - the general tips for transitioning from acts to maps were really helpful for someone like me with no real knowledge. Best of luck with whatever you do next - I'm a fan of souls games so hopefully you'll ping your return somewhere so we can check out the streams :)

This was my first real build. Made me really enjoy POE. I'll never forget my first Witch. It was so much fun.

Cool, Cool, Cool, Cool, Cool, Cool, Cool, but how about you bring the arc witch pob back? I would like to check how the changes to archmage effect it.

Keep the thread alive :)

Enki - you made me enjoy PoE with this build. Kudos!

Thanks for the love everyone, it really warms my heart to read all those replies!

Unfortunately I won't be able to provide any old POBs, as I don't have them anymore nor would they still work. The build had been taken down for two patches before I quit after all.

And I don't know anything about the current state of the game to make new POBs.

That said, if I make it into the POE2 beta I will try out Arc, so keep an eye out on my twitch or socials!

Its really sad the devs dont give a shit about the best skill in poe

First build I actually understood back in the days and remember pushing it as far as I could. Best memories, thank you Enki and hope you'll bring back all your Arc variations for PoE2.

First build I ever followed and played over many leauges thank you Enki you are an absolute goat

Aww dang. I loved this build back in the day. I came back hoping you had updated it. I really hope its good in POE 2 and you like it enough to come up with a guide. But anyways thanks for this build while it lasted :) Best of luck!
