[3.10] 🐉 Dragon's Breath Elementalist - Incinerate
|
Hi fellow exiles and welcome to my Dragon’s Breath Witch Elementalist build guide.
ADDED CLUSTER VERSION, IT'S ON THE BOTTOM OF THE GUIDE (no room sry)  FEATURED BY LiftingNerdBro in 3.6 Synthesis league Check out the video and subscribe to his channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgxL1D1Vpog Featured by G3 Iron in his starter list for 3.9 Check out the video and subscribe to his channel https://youtu.be/kazXd9AB4ck Special thanks to exile SicknessXI who maxed out build in 3.6 to insane levels (16M Shaper dps) and gave me great ideas for further development. " This build was made out of desire to go off current meta in 3.5 and give some love to unrightfully forgotten Incinerate skill with 3.5 reworked Martyr of Innocence staff at the time. It is a self-cast semi-crit build. I wanted it to be flexible, all content capable and most important, to be fun to play. With that in mind I tried not to sacrifice defenses and make a build with enough life that can take a hit or two including Über Elder. I also focused on maximizing the area of effect for good clear speed and scaling of cast speed (over 14casts/sec) to easily reach max dps potential in action. It's pretty straightforward to make but if you get stuck ill be there to help out. Check out my new build for 3.10 Torstein's Death Angel - insane! Dual Oni-Goroshi https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2784358 Please read full guide before starting the build. For any feedback, questions or help with the build, leave a comment on this thread. Wish you many fun hours of play and good start in Delirium league! TorsteinTheFallen Change log 12.3.2020.

Скрытый текст
League starter is a build that will easily carry you to maps and mapping with very little or no currency at all. You will be able to comfortably get into yellow maps with 0 currency investment on a 5L that you will find on the ground. https://pastebin.com/mcMLWfZP In the bottom left corner of the PoB you have a menu to see points distribution while leveling. *note: league starter version differs from full one by 6 passive points so if you want to continue to full version be sure to respec those points  Also in the NOTES window you have whole leveling part copied. Follow the leveling from the NOTES for the league starter and gem links from the "skills" window. Just passive tree www.poeurl.com/cLOa This is an example for a league start with leveling passive tree menu. As you progress you can transition item by item to the full build if you want to continue with the same character. As weapons you can dual wield any rare crap wands/sceptres/daggers with some cast speed/spell damage/fire damage/added fire damage to spells/elemental damage will be ok.

Скрытый текст
Incinerate gains more damage when cast continuously from one spot, up to a maximum of 200% more damage (25% per stage up to 8 stages maximum, or 10 if you use the helmet enchantment). The next stage is reached after every tick (0.2s). At each stage, the flames become visibly larger and will spread out in a huge cone. Since the spell is a channeling spell, if the player is stunned or interrupted in any way while casting incinerate, the spell will come back to stage 1.
At the end of the channeling (Final Wave), Incinerate deals big chunk of extra damage, 500% MORE damage with Hits and 500% MORE damage with Ignite. That’s a lot of extra damage. To get the maximum dps out of Incinerate you should channel to 8(10 with enchant) stages and release. Final wave deals massive damage. If you played Blade Flurry, this is the same principle. Monster mobs die fast so maximum channeling is not needed. The area will still be very good. Build defences
Скрытый текст
-Build uses Acrobatics and Phase Acrobatics keystones which gives passive 30 + 10% attack dodge and 30% spell dodge. Quartz flask gives +10% on both. Atziri's step boots, +14-16% spell dodge. Vaal Grace will cap your dodge at 75/75%. Excellent for mapping and bossing. -Decent life pool ~7.5k life gives a nice buffer -Aspect of the Spider (more damage and slows enemies) Flesh and Stone aura, use Sand Stance! -Nearby Enemies are Blinded while in Sand Stance You take (10-11)% less Damage from Enemies that aren't nearby while in Sand Stance -Immortal Call Active skills
Скрытый текст
Main Skill –Incinerate Movement –Flame Dash, gives us ability to get over cliffs, gaps and quickly position ourselves in 1 to 4 successive moves Utility -Vaal Righteous Fire, 29% more damage at the cost of % of our life at the time of casting. You are not supposed to use regular RF but VAAL. Regular one will burn you down in no time. -Stone Golems -Vaal Grace will cap your dodge at 75% Ascendancy

Elementalist Ascedancy Normal Labyrinth –Pendulum of Destruction Cruel – Mastermind of Discord Merciless – Paragon of Calamity Ethernal – Liege of the Primordial Items for the full build

Staff
Скрытый текст
With all the changes to multimodding, crafting a staff doesn't justify the hassle anymore. Martyr is a very good choice and will on average give the same dps as current crafted in a more consistent way. Body armour
Скрытый текст
Kaom's Heart
Not much to say about this one, +500 to maximum life speaks for itself. Jewels
Скрытый текст
-Getting cast speed and life is a priority!
Belt
Скрытый текст
Preferably Stygian Vise belt with high total life roll. Belt slot is the best to get strength attribute. Min 80% total ele res. Anything else is bonus. If you can't afford Stygian, go for the Heavy or Leather belt with high life roll, they are perfectly fine. Gloves
Скрытый текст
Just regular rare gloves to cap your resistances and get life.
Rings
Скрытый текст
You want 2 Opal rings (min item level 80). They are craftable with which gives you guaranteed (27-30 increased fire damage). You just need to hit life and resistance with it. These essences are ~2c. You can also use Screaming Essence of Anger that is even cheaper.
Pay attention to have free prefix after essence/fossil crafting so you can craft Channelling Skills have -3 to Total Mana Cost. Craft that on only one ring or amulet, so you don't need mana leech! This is important. On other ring if you have free suffix craft "+1 to minimum Frenzy charges". Amulet
Скрытый текст
Just simple rare amulet with life and resistance. You can craft on amulet Aspect of the Spider and "+1 to minimum Frenzy charges" if there is free suffix. Boots!
Скрытый текст
Atziri's Step boots are very good choice because they further increase spell dodge chance, have 30% movement speed and ok life. They are also dirt cheap. Helmet and helmet enchant
Скрытый текст
Buy min ilvl85 helmet with preferably enchant. Use Warlord's exalted orb to get Warlord's influence. Fossil craft (pristine and scorched fossils) it further for high life, fire res and -9% fire res to nearby enemies. +2 maximum Incinerate stages is the best enchant 10% increased Incinerate damage for each stage is the second best Flasks
Скрытый текст
Please use Blood of the Karui flask when you get above 6k life!!! Cinderswallow Urn is the best dps flask instead of Atziri's Promise. Besides damage it provides amazing sustain. Aim for 2-3% life recovered on kill with 3% life regeneration during flask effect if you can afford. Suffixes: -of Staunching (Bleeding immunity) -of Heat (Freeze and chill immunity) -of Warding (Curse immunity) Aspect of the spider
Скрытый текст
Aspect can be crafted on any rare item that has free suffix. You can buy jewelry with or without it and beastcraft aspect as long the item has free suffix. Beastcraft with this
Don't use Aspect of the Spider before you craft on ring -(3) mana mod for CHANNELING SKILLS AND GET ENLIGHTEN LEVEL 4 GEM Последняя редакция: TorsteinTheFallen#1295. Время: 25 янв. 2022 г., 14:39:16 Last bumped12 дек. 2023 г., 16:33:45

Take defensive points first for each stage of leveling. In Path of Building, in the bottom left corner you have the menu to see level by level point distribution. Anointing amulets
Скрытый текст
Good passive points to anoint are:
Off: Divine Judgement (best bang for buck), Disciple of Slaughter, Prodigal Perfection Off/deff: Singular Focus, Overcharged, Golem Commander Deff: Golem's Blood, Heart of Oak, Soul of Steel Mobility: Fleetfoot FAQ - Frequently asked questions
Скрытый текст
-Why Vaal Grace lvl10-15? Because it's enough and dexterity for that is provided by passive tree. Going higher can give you problems with dex attribute and it's not necessary. -Can I use 2 Wands? You can use pretty much any crap you want but, getting 2 one handed weapons means you have to get 6L on chest. Having Kaom's Heart (+500 life) and 6L in your staff is the biggest advantage of this build. -Which items to upgrade first? Go for staff and Kaom's Heart next! -I die often, what's the problem? You probably don't have enough life/capped res, wrong flasks or not using them. My other builds

Use Forked PoB from here so you can see everything that changed https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/deon82/localidentitys_path_of_building_v141514_fork/ This version of the build is a lot stronger in every way so it's my big recommendation. Cluster jewels required Large rare

-1 large with max "adds 8 passive skills" and "added small passive points grant: 12% increased fire damage"
Prefixes: Master of Fire, Cremator Suffixes: Widespread Destruction, 2 jewel sockets Medium rare

Скрытый текст
with max "adds 2 passive skills" and "Added Small Passive Skills grant: +12% to Chaos Resistance"
Prefix: Rot-Resistant Natural Affinity small unique cluster jewel
Скрытый текст
This little cluster jewel provides Nature's Patience Keystone  -Gain 2 Grasping Vines each second while stationary -2% chance to deal Double Damage per Grasping Vine -1% less Damage taken per Grasping Vine Everyone bypassed this jewel because it lowers your movement speed drastically when you are stationary. But, vines are instantly broken by using any blink skill like Flame Dash, Blink Arrow, Frost Blink or Dash, so pretty much any build can benefit from it. Also Juggenrnauts with allocated Unstoppable or chars with Kaom's Roots won't even notice it. After 5 seconds being stationary, it gives 20% chance to deal double damage an 10% less damage taken, which is big and most useful for any character that has to be stationary to deal damage. Passive tree is a lot different and cluster version of the build uses Block based defenses. Lots of gear is a changed also. You will need Tailwind boots but not some crazy expensive ones. Flasks are changed. Amulet anointment is changed. Gems are changed You will have to have "corrupted blood cannot be inflicted on you" on any jewel, doesn't matter which one. I can't make whole another guide for this version so please go thru it carefully, step by step, item by item. Either me or someone else from the community will help out if needed, but don't be lazy to check things yourself. Love, Torstein Последняя редакция: TorsteinTheFallen#1295.

Hey there - I'm new to the game as of 2 weeks ago. I tried your build yesterday and it was amazingly fun! You switched out cold snap for (vaal's) grace, but kept hypothermia on the 6L chest piece. Was that an oversight?
Since I don't know all the game mechanics and spells, I was wondering what you would put in place of that for additional damage since nothing is doing cold damage any longer? Again, I'm new, so I could be overlooking something here. |
|
" Hi, i'm glad you are playing my build. :) True, I made some changes but they are final now so pls dont forget to check new pastebin. I'm sorry for the confusion. Change log is updated. Yes, i changed Cold Snap for Vaal Grace in boots due to changes i made to the build defences. I switched from stacking block chance to stacking dodge chance thru Acrobatics and Phase Acrobatics keystones, flask and finally Vaal Grace. Flask setup is also different and now you dont need to change flasks for Uber Elder. I changed the main boot also to Atziri's step. Defenses are much better now due to stacking of dodge that is at maximum level (75%/75%) in tough situations. About cold damage. Pay attention in gear section. I said that you need to have Abyss jewel with cold damage to spells or cold damage to spells while wielding two handed weapon mod for hypothermia to work. Minimum roll is perfectly fine. |

Damn this build looks really nice, midterm season is coming so I doubt I can play much but I'll try to give it a shot.
|
|
" tnx! :) give it a spin when you find time |
|
|
Really enjoying the build so far, only level 27. I am curious why even bother with Hypothermia. Does the chill and damage due to chill really make that much of a difference? Thanks
|
|
" I'm glad you like it. Yes, Hypothermia is worth and very potent gem but it needs Beacon of Ruin (Ascendancy Notable Passive Skill) to be acquired first and cold damage source which is Abyss jewel. Hypothermia at gem lvl20 -Supported Skills deal 39% more Damage with Hits and Ailments against Chilled Enemies Beacon of Ruin mechanics -Beacon of Ruin overrides the minimum threshold of 1% effect that normally applies to chill and shock.[2][3] In other words, 1 point of cold damage from any hit will apply chill[4], and 1 point of lightning damage from a critical strike will apply shock. This also applies to damage types that are enabled by unique items, where 1 point of physical damage will apply chill when Soul Taker is equipped.[5] more on PoeWiki https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Beacon_of_Ruin Последняя редакция: TorsteinTheFallen#1295.
