You forgot mentioning flame dash as a travelling skill, it is usually one of the best ones when you don't want to do any heavy investment in your momentskill.

Sadly, flame dash doesn't allow you to by pass the blue memory void.

Hello guys,

It's my first league effectively playing PoE and I'm having a blast!
This build is amazing since I'm not dying like a noob, haha.

But here comes some issues. I recently installed PoB and when comparing the damage with this build I'm way, way, way down and I don't really know why.
The only thing my noob mind see a difference is that PoB is not putting any physical damage on the calculation tab for the HoA.

Compared with the build

Because of it, I don't know if my damage is fine or trash.

Here is my PoB https://pastebin.com/NSdhKNaK


And since I'm here already, what is the difference between a ghastly jewel and a normal one? Just because the ghastly can be socket into an abyssal socket?

If anyone has the spare time to help a noob out I'd be glad.

I'm currently on mobile so I can't check your pob, but have you under configuration put virulence stacks to 40? If you haven't that should show a more realistic single target number.

Another difference between ghastly and cobalt jewels are the mods that they can roll. Ghastly has up to +50 flat life while cobalt has up to 7% increased. For our purpose will ghastly jewels often be the better choice.

I've exclusively been using flame dash this league and I've had no issues with jumping across the void. As long as you're using Attack in Place then flame dash have a decent maximum range after the 3.4. changes. Sure you can't move across the entire screen, but I've never felt like I have needed it so far in the league.

I know this is kind off topic but :

As mentioned above, I chosen to variate from the build with Lioneye Vision instead of the Calamity in order to focus on armor layer instead of evasion/ES.
I did it with the goal of being able to survive any very bad big slam if our luck runs out (block then evasion).

Yet, as I play, and never encountered issues so far I remember old theorycraft posts (last time I played was abyss) about what armor it takes to tank those said slams. And I believe to remember the amount of armor and HP needed is big.

Can someone give me some insight or link to such knowledge?
As armor is as kind of diminishing return as increasing damages hit goes, without knowing how hard those biggest slam are, I'm in the blur about if my choice was useful or not.


And while I'm off topic, how much chaos resist do you think we need to be relatively safe (including when doing Chaluya)?
