[3.15] Essence Drain 6.6 Mil DoT DPS | Very Beginner Friendly
|
@ krserviss
Your characters don't show to me either they're private or something bugged. But if you die in t1 maps, first question is are your resists capped to 75%? Second how much life or energy shield do you have? |

"Hi Have you upgraded your gear yet? It's not the tankiest in the world, but I definitely don't really think it's too much of an issue, but if you play careless (I do a LOT) - then it may be. "We get Dexterity from our passive free "So my first question is did you switch over to Essence Drain? My next question is same what Viktranka asked, are you resist capped? Do you have the right flasks and gem setups? Are you still Mind over Matter? I cannot pull your account up on Xbox, PS4, or PC? Not sure why... are you posting on a different account? What is the main account of your character? |

" Thank you so much! That really cleared things up. Made the modifications and was a huge improvement. I really appreciate all the effort you put into these builds/guides and all the help you provide responding on the forums. |

Hey Havoc, awesome guide and thanks for being active in here/answering questions. I just switched over from a LL miner so had a bunch of the prerequisite gear good to go already.
With that said, starting from 0 to 100 with a build, even as an experienced POE player, you tend to miss certain things along the way. I'm about to have an influx of another 7ex and just wanted to know what the most optimal next steps were and if I made any glaring mistakes along the way. I'm sitting on 7.5k ES which I know is a bit low but not sure if that's the priority. https://pastebin.com/T7y3vxcK Dernière édition par Malfetus#2917, le 9 juil. 2020 12:35:03

"No problem! Feel free to ask me if you have any other questions! Also please let me know where I should add this.. should I add a CI section? Or maybe do it in budget gearing before low life? The problem is I'm out of wording.. There's a 50,000 character limit and I've damn near reached it. "Hello! Thank you very much! That is actually the SAME thing my friend is doing right now!! So I would HIGHLY suggest - FIRST: Cap your chaos resistance if you feel squishy since you are only at 16%, don't forget about Primsatic Catalysts on Presence of Chayula for 12%. Second: I would get an Empower level 4 gem.. you already have the bow, so this would add a TON of damage. I see you are using a Basalt Flask, I am very sorry - I forgot to update the Flasks on the gear, which it has been done now! Change the Basalt Flask to a Jade Flask The last thing is not going to be cheap. It would be to maximize damage in your helmet / gloves by looking for influences for -9% Chaos Resist for helm, and % Chaos Damage Over Time Multi on gloves (Pref Fingerless Silk but more expensive...?) And then after or before this, Awakened Gems. Dernière édition par Havoc209#1089, le 9 juil. 2020 14:57:49

" Yeah I'm totally good on DPS right now, it honestly deletes bosses - I'm definitely gonna focus on the chaos res (maybe at the cost of aspect of the spider for now) as that seems to be the only thing I'm really dying to. I'll change the flask asap as well, thank you. Edit: Made the changes, chaos res capped and approaching 8k ES, bought a nice pair of gloves and everything fell into place and was able to keep aspect of the spider. Thanks again dude, https://pastebin.com/LTs6eicx Edit 2: After testing, this build is god-tier if you dump in the 25-40ex. It's an excellent stepping stone from league starters with a 10-15ex cap; Excellent alternative to going down the currency rabbit hole of COC ice nova assassin or foregoing most defenses with BV poison assassin Edit 3: Just did A8 Sirus safe and deathless, took a little bit longer than what I'm accustomed to but it was super low-stress. Conclusion: 10/10 build would dump all my currency again. Dernière édition par Malfetus#2917, le 9 juil. 2020 16:50:59

Hi, loving this build so far. Can you advise on what are the next things to upgrade?

"Thank you for sharing, that makes me extremely happy!! :D "Hello! I would FIRST: Change your Basalt Flask to a Jade Flask, change your Eternal Life Flask for a Sulphur Flask. Next: focus on getting on either getting the bow or Empower 3 or 4, it also looks like you are missing Aspect of the Spider which helps a TON. Change your Ascendancy since you have a Presence of Chayula - remove "Escape Artist" and grab "Swift Killer" From here it just starts to take a lot of currency, the bow is ~7-10 exalts, empower 4 is around 4, you need Tranquility on your amulet, also need to cap your Cold Resist. |

Is awakened swift affliction worth it? It's more dps, but the extreme shortening of skill duration means you have less total damage.
Thoughts? |

I did want to do an update post.
I did not realize the skills in the Pastebin were so confusing, I had someone help me, and give me an idea of how to label them properly. The Harvest - Fork Leveling Pastebins have been removed, and replaced with a final Leveling Pastebin now to clear the confusion of so many pastebins, I still need to work on the full-low life pastebin to update it to 3.11, and any updated changes I find, but everything is the same. "Hi, yes although it gives Essence Drain a shorter skill duration, I still think it is worth picking up because it is almost 50% MORE damage.. that is a a lot of damage! Also you can just use another Essence Drain when the skill falls off, it does last quite a bit of time already! Dernière édition par Havoc209#1089, le 11 juil. 2020 22:48:25
