[Semi-Updated to Ritual]Poison Blade Vortex Assassin In Depth Guide

To my mind there are two end-game routes you can go for your chest piece: 1) spell crit and +1 curse or 2) spell crit and enemies explode. There's no point buying anything better than what you have until you can afford one of these two.

This Blade Vortex build (and most versions of BV builds) do damage via poison. Poison is an ailment applied by any skill that "hits". Blade Vortex hits 7 times per second (which is a lot), applying a poison stack each time (which adds up quickly). Each poison stack deals 20% of the physical and chaos damage done by the hit. So even though Blade Vortex is a spell, it's the physical and chaos damage that we want to scale. You can also scale the poison damage directly by things like increases to damage over time. Here's the wiki page explaining this in more detail: https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Poison


Cheers thanks for all the help!
Is getting asenath as extra explode mod, next to explody chest, worth the investment? I'm pretty happy with the explody chest clear, but was wondering if the explosion clear would improve significantly by getting asenath.

That depends on what you want to do? Having double explosion makes the clear feel nicer and smoother. Also it cheats gear a bit as it allows you yo do mapping content that you might not be able to do gear-wise, like early delirium maps.

having double explosion means more explosion chains and the explosions trigger bigger poisons in general to packs.

However, I would not swap Asenath if you are using good pair of hands of the high templar. The gloves scale bossing defence a bit better in the very endgame and allows easier swap to hh.

but then again, if mapping is what you enjoy the most, asenaths is something that you will feel while mapping.

Do you mind taking a look at my build? My DPS seems very low compared to yours.

from quick look the issue is clusters, you have a lot of poison duration from circling oblivion but the poisons do dmg fast. stack wasting affliction instead.

also one issue I found that atm you have 3 curse slots with that chest, but you are only using 2. so you could drop whispers of doom for something.

if you want more dmg also get +2 amulet instead of impresence as your HotHT already have the 2 curses we want
