nice
keep in mind that fortify effect works with intervals of 5%, because 5% of base 20% reduction is 1%. So need to divine it to 20%, or it counts as 15%.

Yep! going to just keep it as is, happy with the 140% and the 8% crafts.

Is the best move to slam this guy with a redeemers and hope for T1 cold/phys?



I also this one which failed the slam earlier. Debating scouring and trying to alt T1 cold/phys and then awakening with 25% fortify effect. Not sure which helm would be stronger.

Update: end-game gear crafting in the OP.

Some Practical Note on Focus mod on Helm and the Fortify significance in our build:

1) Increased ailment duration while Focused:
People believe this mod only creates a burst DPS window.

In practice, it not only creates a DPS burst but also benefits the subsequent poison stacks. Let's say we have 5-sec poison duration and 7-sec poison duration without and with the Focus mod respectively. Below is an illustrated chart that shows the poison stacks in the chrono order with and without Focus.

<-7s -> <5s >
x-------o-----
xx-------oo---
xxx-------ooo-
xxxx-------ooo
xxxxx-------oo
xxxxxx-------o
xxxxxxx-------

x: one poison stack inflicted during Focus duration, which lasts 7sec.
o: one poison stack inflicted without Focus, which lasts 5sec.
-: poison stack dealing damage.

Multiple poison can stacks, so the Focus mod scales with the attack per sec (APS). This is the DPS burst with high APS. In addition, as you may see in the illustration above, Focus also benefits the subsequent poison stacks on a rolling window basis (look at the overlapped stacks above).

2) The importance of Fortify:
It seems 20% Fortify or even 1.25x Fortify is less impressive compared to over-capped resist. However, the fact is, the over-capped resist advantage is much more expensive and wane off quickly against attacks/spells that have resist penetration such as The Shaper's Cold Balls (-25% cold resist), the Guardian of Phoenix's Firebomb (-50% fire resist), the Uber Atziri's Flame Blast (-10% fire resist), the -resist map, etc.

Furthermore, Fortify is applied after resist. So, a 1.25x Fortify on a 75% resist has the same hit mitigation effectiveness as an over-capped 81.25% resist with no Fortify (a). Against a 25% ele penetration, 1.25x Fortify on a 75% resist has the same hit mitigation as 87% over-capped resist without Fortify (b).

"

25% penetration:
(a) 1.25x Fortify + 75% resist: (1 - (0.75 - 0.25)) * (1 - 0.20*1.25)) = 37.5% damage taken.
(b) No Fortify + 87% resist: 1 - (0.87 - 0.25) = 38% damage taken.

"

No penetration:
1.25x Fortify + 75% resist: (1 - 0.75) * (1 - 0.20*1.25) = 18.75% damage taken.
No Fortify + 81.25% resist: (1 - 0.8125) = 18.75% damage taken.

As shown in the math above, the 1.25x Fortify brings the same effect as the over-capped resist at 81.25% for damage hit with no penetration, or the over-capped resist at 87% for damage hit with 25% penetration.

With +120% Fortify effect while focused on chest, the amount of mitigation is even higher. It's worth to mention that Fortify doesn't mitigate DoT. However, that part will be cover by our collection of flasks such as 30% LDR (fire) from Dying Sun, 30% LDR (lightning) from Vessel of Vinktar, or 30% LDR (cold) from Taste of Hate.

The final benefit of Fortify over the over-capped resist is that the former mitigates physical hit while the latter doesn't.

Btw, if you are doing a strength-stacking SA with Replica Alberon, I'd recommend pathing to Utmost Might as well as Rampart for another +25% Fortify effect (and great DPS boost).

Hello, can anyone help me to improve my Toxic Rain single target DPS against conquerors and t16 bosses ?. (except awakened gem, gem level, gem quality and warlord chest base). Here's my pob https://pastebin.com/HccveU2W

Is there anyway to make TR pod explode faster ?

What would you guys go for first?

Here is my PoB:

Hi

My current pob in str stacking version https://pastebin.com/B2u6Ldu5

Currently i have choosen 2x split personality in the large jewel. I take Call to arms to have a little more regen/endurance charge with enduring cry.

My stuff is pretty garbage (only bow + chest is OK), but my build can handle all content. Any post-upgrade is just luxury :)

I see many upgrade :
- belt with str/str/% attributes/% max life/reduced flask used/life
- quiver with % dot multi, % chaos dot multi, life, + arrow
- amulet with str/str/% str/% attributes or % dmg for str
- ring with synthesis % str or intimidate on hit
- gloves with % chaos dot multi, % dot
- helmet with accuracy = str, and -% chaos rez
- a good lethal pride for two % str
- cap rez + divine flesh

Obviously it's not harvest so it will be hard to get all this things

Less Duration Support (21/20) can be used to make pods explode faster. Although its paper DPS is lower than Awake Deadly Ailment (5/20), it's arguably more effective than regular deadly ailment.

Regarding upgrades, first of all, you nees a rare ring with despair on hit.

Second, I would focus on leveling up Awake Added Chaos damage (cheap) and Awake Unbound Ailment to level 5 ASAP. They significantly boost base poison damage and duration by a large amount. Grab a Coralito until you get lvl3+ Awake unbound Ailment. Cinderswallow is great. If you have a tight budget, try a Silver flask with +#% AS until you can afford cinderswallow.

In addition, Tailwind boots work great for Poison TR. You don't need +1 arrow in quiver, but Dying Sun with max AoE flask mod. Quiver should have either chaos Dot multi or Dot multi.

Apart from that, try to stack Viridian jewels with AS, chaos dot multi (and life if possible).

Update time! I want to use this post to help people decide on gear choices, as I feel that the information on it is fairly scattered. Note : this is for the acrobatics version of the build using SA.

Preface - in the past 3 days, I have only died once - this includes doing:
sirus 8/all elderslayers, elder, all elder guardians, shaper, all shaper guardians, t16 delirium maps, multiple simulacrums, grand heists, heists, etc.

My one death was due to spilling a little water on my keyboard, so I took my headset off and was trying to clean it, and kept hitting blood rage - whoops!

Gear time! I've decided to go for a fairly high defensive version of the build, with great damage, boss killing abilities, and the only thing I really swap around is flasks for bosses

Let's talk about stat breakdowns for each piece of gear:

Helmet


Bow


Quiver


Chest Armour


Gloves


Boots


Belt


Amulet


Rings


Hopefully this is a help to anyone not understanding how to prioritize some stats on gear
