[3.6] Acid Molten Strike Assassin - Uber Elder-viable Poison Build

This build is unplayable, 1080 and my fps just tanks and the game has crashed 14 times today.

Shaper done with all gems level 18 and a 15c armor(you can do it on a tabula)



My gear:





indeed a great build, thanks for the guide Shepuuurd.

one question: how did you calculate the number of poisons applied recently? i see you set it to 840 in pob

What gem can I lose if I only have a 5 link chest?

None, a 6link is really important because it adds like 60% damage.
Even a Tabula is much better than a 5-link.

10 attacks per second and 14 projectiles equals 140 projectiles per second.
With Ancestral Call this is doubled to 280.
Recently refers to "in the last four seconds", so it's 1120.
If you assume only 75% of balls hit exactly one enemy, then you'll get 840 poison applied recently.

Powerful build, bought the entire top gear. Makes maps with the speed of light.
The only negative is FPS and again FPS =)
Respect to the author for this gorgeous build!

But Ancestral Call gives three times more projectiles?

Why do you use greater multiple projectile instead of faster attacks or vile toxine?
Nice build =)

Against multiple targets, yes.
V.S a single target you can only have yourself and one clone attacking, so you can't get all three sadly.

Because it doesn't have a damage penalty on poison.

Without helmet enchantment, it's 57% more damage.
With the helmet enchantment, it's still 40% more damage.

Vile Toxins is arguably better if you have the enchantment, but keep in mind that having more projectiles also increases your poison duration via Noxious Strikes and your healing from Life gain on Hit.

PS: Looks like there's been a PoB update so Wasp Nest, Fenumus and the Helmet Enchantment now work properly.
I've added a new link with the working items.

I've been comparing my PoB and yours and i'm not even close to your poison damage. I have not full level gems or helmet enchant but i think my gear is quite decent, any advice?
