Is it best to go full phys berserker now and not chieftain because of the new purity?

I feel like chieftain maybe more survivability still but damage isn’t quite there?

chieftain has enough dps for all content ingame like all the other versions in this guide (with the right gear efc).

and the guide is up to date. so no need to ask yourself if pure phys is better than that what i wrote down. with some changes in the gear/gems you can ofc go full phys. but this guide is, as you can see, for phys+ele (zerker) or pure elemental dmg (chieftain)

Has anybody considered using an elder helmet with 20 conc and 20 elemental focus with a kaoms heart for massive damage and life boost?

**for chieftain version of course

you loose abyssus and loreweave, it will be a HUGE damage decrease ...

+1 totems crafted on shields. rip tokuhama :D mirror totem shield inc :D

As chieftain, is it better to stack high flat phys or flat fire/ elemental damage? Sorry for all the basic questions

as we play with facebreaker: our whole dmg comes from flat physical dmg

I just came back from PoE after a long time and find this interesting.

I have some questions / clarification:
1) I just want to clarify that the high budget and low budget version are different gear wise is mostly the shield (and maybe plus the boot).

2) Also, in the leveling tree it's for the low budget version. Any recommendation or leveling tree for the high budget version?

3) Finally, the pastebin / gear link shows some difference in the 6th gem in chest.

So belly would use faster attack while loreweave uses ruthless?

4) does it matter whether to use vaal grace vs vaal haste?

Thanks,

The shield gives us Blood Magic and +1 Totems, this is why we need a new tree and some gear changes. Overall is ~ the same dmg but some player like the playstyle more than the beginner with 2 totems

take a look at the high tree and adapt it. its nearly the same pathing

i dont see a difference in the PoB, but as i mentioned in the detailed gear section:
"Switch Increased Area to Conc Effect for Hard Bosses. You can switch Faster Attacks with Ruthless if you feel you have enough attack speed (wich is also a dmg increase)"

Thanks,

vaaö grace gives dodge chance, so its defensive. Vaal Haste give movement/attack/cast speed, so its offensive
