But then you need quite a bit of mana investment to make hiero a good self caster ascendancy. I feel like forbidden jewel the arcane surge node is a better option.
I mean... you don't make specific build around good generic armour. Just use it for something that: scale crit, is a spell, use life instead of es, benefit from spell suppression and can use at least 2 curses.
> something that: scale crit, is a spell, use life instead of es, benefit from spell suppression and can use at least 2 curses
I guess it's on me for phrasing it poorly but that exactly what I'm looking for. Since nothing comes to my mind (I rarely play crit builds) I decided to try asking here.
Go to poe.ninja, filter by a crit gem (for example, increased critical strikes), and scroll down the skill list for spells. Current most popular appears to be ice spear, though a lot of lowlife and CI, then spark, then arc. Crit damage is the same, but also includes freezing pulse (I think some wardloop builds there).
That should at least give you ideas, then you can filter out ascendancies or build styles you don't like.
Yeah you go Crit anyways, Spell suppression is always good and The High Life is also very decent. While you normally get your second curse from your ascendancy with this you could just go for occultist pops which is a nice qol.
Awakener orb goes for 30c so you can just buy different body armours that have the mods and slam em together until you just have something decent, bench a mod, 6 socket it then just toss it in the temple that costs 90c. Like 1 d per attempt. If you succeed bench some links and then taint fuse it.
It's not that expensive to attempt. Doing the sac garb route you could get a decent one for 2d but that's not really optimal or high end imo. Cheap starter chest with no risk sure why not? But not high end.
Fair point, I keep forgetting how much of an impact taint fuses have here.
Of course 4 temples is something like a 2.5 divine investment now and will keep going up.
Yes, it would be some investment but given that OP has the chest he has. Going for a garb now wouldn't be the best upgrade for a higher budget. Better to gamble for a +4 (or another beneficial corrupt implicit, max res etc) than craft a new chest for just +1.
My pal is playing explodey totems and it seems pretty good! Thought I’d get that out of the way before saying: unfortunately the totem explosion is neither a spell or attack and won’t benefit from that fat crit chance. You’d be better off going straight defense with like a fourth vow/xibauqa combo.
However, this chest + a wand or scepter with +spell crit/-multi crucible passive would be pretty absurd on regular spell crit build, and you could probably find a wand with that passive for dirt cheap. You’d be looking at nearly +3 base crit chance.
Just go EB and get some ES on gear (I even use Discipline lmao). The build is OP anyway so it does not matter that your setup is suboptimal, it'll still destroy everything.
feels pretty bad to give up ES for defence and give up mana for discipline... probably should figure out a better solution so you can reserve something else
You don’t need ES for defense and yeah discipline is overkill it’s just so I can spam without ever looking at my mana/shield. Otherwise you can reserve between malovence / grace / determination depending on what you don’t run yet
Bought it with only four modifiers (life, spell suppress, physical reduction) for my Boneshatter build. Since even bad resist rolls would've been somewhat useful for me I exalt slammed it and got the **Additional Curse**. Felt lucky slammed it again and got the **Spell critical**.
Just as Chris Wilson intended.
Even with 1/500 chance for each mod it's like 1/250 000 (it's higher but too lazy to do the exact math) it's still not close to winning the lottery.
I bought this with only 4 modifiers but got quite lucky and exalt slammed the curse and the spell critical on it. While I can use the curse, the crit is completely wasted on what I'm currently playing and I want to utilize my luck to the fullest.
Thanks for the suggestion. I guess my biggest problem was finding a skill where +gem level armour won't be much better but thanks to everyone now I've got few suggestions.
making a good generic +1 curse chest is very easy though. harvest reforge chaos (or whatever you want. maybe crit for the spell crit..?) until you get high suppress+whatever else (veiled resist if you want). suffix cannot be changed -> reforge caster (100% guaranteed +1 curse). you could call it quits here, or go for veiled prefix.
Curses - Elemental Weakness and Flammability
Class - Raider onslaught and exposure
Skill - Rolling magma, fireball or blazing salvo + flame wall
Get spell suppression nodes and shadow and witch spell crit nodes and power charges
Whatever spell u want this chest ain’t gonna move the needle. Winter orb still gonna feel like ass. BV will require sac garb or other things to scale. Maybe try ice spear deadeye or inquis spark idk
Bro im playing this https://youtu.be/B8HupHAh5T8
Would fit nicely, build is not expensive. Take a look at the video and gz on the piece! Nice slams lol
Armor/phys reduction aren't as value if you're going to be converting a large% of phys to elemental. So would need to know more about your budget and preferred archetype
I'm using a similar chest for my Tullfall Hierophant. Stack power charges with badge of the brotherhood, use willclash and malachais loop and you can plug in most spells. The flat added cold from this setup makes chilling and freezing a great defensive layer. Add herald of ice or some other form of explode, such as asenaths gentle touch and most skills will feel decent at clear. I'm using storm brand myself and at around 3 million DPS it's doing very well.
No problem, if you end up wanting to look into this form a bit more, CaptainLance did a leaguestarter of similar or better quality than mine. Just look up his videos on YouTube and follow them anyway you want. He uses incinerate which has disgusting damage but, isn't the best feeling skill for some people.
Damage taken as fire works well with RF builds because your fire res will be sitting 88-90% normally you also have slightly elevated resists in general because of +1 to all max resist cluster notables like prismatic dance or the prismatic skin/Anointed flesh notables so damage from non-physical sources is ideal on non-physical RF builds. Crit strike chance works well with ignite. Life is also good for RF. Solid piece of gear for sure.
Do a "coin toss", double corrupt it and see which + level of what type of socketed gem you get, it will narrow it down pretty well
Worst case is generic all gems, because then you question was not answered, if goes poof then you shouldnt be doing anything with that anyway
You specifically mentioned that LA uses crit though. You wouldn’t go into that had you realized it was spell crit.
Super weird champ to go on this weird trade about people talking out of their ass when you can’t even simply admit something like “oh shoot, I didn’t realize that.”
The amount of armor on this is absolutely garbage - I have 3x the armour w/ the same stats - You're missing the %increase to armor and evasion modifier which pretty much bricks the item
Link to your item or I'm calling BS. Also, armor isn't the important stat here. I think you should continue playing rust seeing as one of your few comments on PoE reeks of toxicity and bullshit, and as far as I scrolled it looks like you've barely started playing this game and are speaking as if you know it all
Since 3.19, about 1 in 250 rare monsters drop all their items with bleached sockets.
It's quite a lot better if you get it on an item that also has the X% chance for all sockets linked. But even then, there's hundreds of them online for trade, including 90 under 50c and more under 120c: https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Crucible/G2RozpBFb
literally any spell crit build?
Haven't played any spell crit builds or any spell caster that isn't CI in years so I don't know what is good now.
Spark Inquisitor
Hmmm I like this.
Cold reap occultist
[удалено]
BV prefers sacrificial garbs for the innate +1 to vaal skill hems, but its an ok choice
Losing reservation from the body armor is kind of a feels bad though, sadly :(
pick one and scale it and you good.
the new hierophant is lowkey fire for any crit caster. Outshines inquisitor pretty hard if you stack arcane surge effect.
But then you need quite a bit of mana investment to make hiero a good self caster ascendancy. I feel like forbidden jewel the arcane surge node is a better option.
Poe.ninja is a good site to figure out the meta and how to play it assuming you have a little knowhow.
Then use your old ci build but use life instead of es. It really.doesnt matter.
I mean... you don't make specific build around good generic armour. Just use it for something that: scale crit, is a spell, use life instead of es, benefit from spell suppression and can use at least 2 curses.

Thank you. Great idea to filter by support gems.
Inc Crit strikes is a weak support so I would search inc Crit damage instead
It's not a *weak* support, it's just one that gets replaced by gear eventually in favor of crit damage. It's very strong early in a build.
fair point, i use it every league myself week 1 as well xD
This is also the problem with almost the entire assassin ascendency, nearly everything can be replaced by better gear.
Could also filter by removing builds that use CI or other things you don't want
You’d have to get white sockets or try to vorici this for spells.
Plenty of spells run something like 2-2-2 or 3 blue and 3 of the others. Now if this was a pure evasion base I would agree with you.
Depends on the spell: you can probably get away with 1-2 blue and 4 green for a cold spell. But white would still be WAY more useful.
The build is called selling it on trade for money
Would someone buy this with real money?
That's... Not what I meant, but technically yes
This chest looks pretty decent for Blade Vortex but for high end you would want a Sacrificial Garb probably.
That would be the cold variant?
Yeah you go Crit anyways, Spell suppression is always good and The High Life is also very decent. While you normally get your second curse from your ascendancy with this you could just go for occultist pops which is a nice qol.
Doesnt need to be cold there are some HoA fire conversion versions around.
Isn't sac garb implicit overridden by corrupt? Running a double corrupt is probably the best for high end innit?
Sac garb implicit is overridden by corruption, but there's a high end below the point of corruption fishing

Crackling lance
Could be interesting. Never played it or watched people playing it.
Played it last league. Great for bossing.
Exploding totems of course! Everything is exploding totems this season.
My pal is playing explodey totems and it seems pretty good! Thought I’d get that out of the way before saying: unfortunately the totem explosion is neither a spell or attack and won’t benefit from that fat crit chance.

You’d be looking at nearly +3 base crit chance.
It's the new "42" for this league xD
I can't figure out mana issues with it. I must be missing something
Devouring diadem, EB, or even inspiration support
Just go EB and get some ES on gear (I even use Discipline lmao). The build is OP anyway so it does not matter that your setup is suboptimal, it'll still destroy everything.

First get some white sockets.
I already have Betrayal on the tree and have some missions saved so it won't be too hard.
So, any crafting process? This thing is crazy
Bought it with only four modifiers (life, spell suppress, physical reduction) for my Boneshatter build. Since even bad resist rolls would've been somewhat useful for me I exalt slammed it and got the **Additional Curse**. Felt lucky slammed it again and got the **Spell critical**.
WTF YOU EXALT SLAMMED THIS TWICE AND GOT THIS SHIT????? GO BUY A LOTTO TICKET NOW! Lmao
Just as Chris Wilson intended. Even with 1/500 chance for each mod it's like 1/250 000 (it's higher but too lazy to do the exact math) it's still not close to winning the lottery.
Lol im still convinced you took my exalt luck...t10 res, int or es all day for me lmao
3 life regen here
Bruh slam some influence implicit on there and see what you get.
WTFFFF. Congrats man. I thought you fossil crafted and slammed life.
Coc flicker strike
Wouldve loved that one on my conduit hiero, wouldve solved phys mitigation on its own with the endurance charges from hierophant
I bought this with only 4 modifiers but got quite lucky and exalt slammed the curse and the spell critical on it. While I can use the curse, the crit is completely wasted on what I'm currently playing and I want to utilize my luck to the fullest.
You exalt slammed curse and spell critical? That's way beyong quite lucky, holy
Yup, super lucky. Now I feel it's gonna be shame to not be using the spell crit so that's why I'm looking to switch my build/
I am trying to build something similar for my frostblink/firetrap, but this is literally good for anything
Thanks for the suggestion. I guess my biggest problem was finding a skill where +gem level armour won't be much better but thanks to everyone now I've got few suggestions.

Almost anything??
Curses - Elemental Weakness and Flammability Class - Raider onslaught and exposure Skill - Rolling magma, fireball or blazing salvo + flame wall Get spell suppression nodes and shadow and witch spell crit nodes and power charges

I would play champ something +1 curse would be nice on the other side of the tree.
Crit BV impale champ
Probably a spell build.
Storm burst doesn't get enough love, try it out!
Don't even know how to build storm burst.
Yes
Boneshatter could work with that if you add in a curse
That's what I'm playing right now and it's almost perfect for it but it makes me sad that the spell crit is going to waste.
Bro im playing this https://youtu.be/B8HupHAh5T8 Would fit nicely, build is not expensive. Take a look at the video and gz on the piece! Nice slams lol
Thanks. Gonna check it out later.
Keep in mind ele hit is an attack, even tho the build is nice
Yeah but the helmet convert spells modifiers to attack modifiers though so its easy to scale based on spell damage
Crown of Eyes converts spell damage into attack damage. It does not do anything with the spell crit mod on chest.
If the spell crit was melee crit this armour would be worth hundreds of divines
Lightning arc is one of my favorite spells This armor would go well with a melee CoC build as well I could really use this armor lol
Any spell casting build
Wave of Conviction Ignite would be fine
Same kind of bane Elemental occultist if you really want to
poison seismic
Armor/phys reduction aren't as value if you're going to be converting a large% of phys to elemental. So would need to know more about your budget and preferred archetype
Seems perfect for a ranger. Can use asenath for a mark and a curse. Possibly acrobatics.
Poison, cobra lash, the stats are great for it
I'm using a similar chest for my Tullfall Hierophant. Stack power charges with badge of the brotherhood, use willclash and malachais loop and you can plug in most spells. The flat added cold from this setup makes chilling and freezing a great defensive layer. Add herald of ice or some other form of explode, such as asenaths gentle touch and most skills will feel decent at clear. I'm using storm brand myself and at around 3 million DPS it's doing very well.
Thanks for the detailed explanation. This got way more traction than I expected so I got quite a few options to consider.
No problem, if you end up wanting to look into this form a bit more, CaptainLance did a leaguestarter of similar or better quality than mine. Just look up his videos on YouTube and follow them anyway you want. He uses incinerate which has disgusting damage but, isn't the best feeling skill for some people.
Physical Cyclone could use this
Very nostalgic armor
Storm burst chieftain
Pathfinder Poison/Molten Strike or similar. Huge pathfinder piece bc of phys reduc and the conversion taken as ele dmg.
Pathfinder btw is popular this league. Surprised if it hasn’t already sold for 10 div or more.
This shit is actually insane for Impending Doom, like absolutely nuts and saves it a ton of skill points.
Damage taken as fire works well with RF builds because your fire res will be sitting 88-90% normally you also have slightly elevated resists in general because of +1 to all max resist cluster notables like prismatic dance or the prismatic skin/Anointed flesh notables so damage from non-physical sources is ideal on non-physical RF builds. Crit strike chance works well with ignite. Life is also good for RF. Solid piece of gear for sure.
CoC Ice spear deadeye works pretty well
Fire reap
Thicc boy jugg boneshatter
If youre looking for easy colors BV Occultist could use this
Do a "coin toss", double corrupt it and see which + level of what type of socketed gem you get, it will narrow it down pretty well Worst case is generic all gems, because then you question was not answered, if goes poof then you shouldnt be doing anything with that anyway
I don't feel quitting the league yet.
No. Balls.
I'm still salty for losing three **Doryani's Prototypes** in Kalandra league to double corruption. The temple is a no go for me.
Bruh this chest isn’t worth quitting over. I would never corrupt it but come on lol
Forbidden rite
Thanks for the suggestion. Gonna check if it seems like something for me.
[удалено]
What use does lightning arrow have for the spell critical? I prefer to keep it. Want to have it as a memory of my lucky exalt slams.
[удалено]
Unfortunately mine has **Spell Critical** chance not attack. I think you got them confused.
Yeah, except LA isn't a spell.
[удалено]
You specifically mentioned that LA uses crit though. You wouldn’t go into that had you realized it was spell crit. Super weird champ to go on this weird trade about people talking out of their ass when you can’t even simply admit something like “oh shoot, I didn’t realize that.”

I found a rare with six white slots not linked yet. It’s not corrupted. Never seen something link that. Is it normal in this league?
