Guys I need some help, What do I need to do to improve next in this build this is my POB http://poeurl.com/cj70.
I know I need a 6L, and a better dagger/shield.. but what's next? I'm fairly new and I would love some help.

This build is awesome and amazing deff my new fav build in a long time <3. I'm having a blast so far.

Thanks

One thing i recently found out that I'm not sure if it's been brought up..

You can fossil craft "curse enemies with level 10 despair on hit" which would without a doubt make that a must have for rare weapons. in the OP there is 2 example crafted weapons both with chance to gain arcane surge. IMO, the "perfect" setup if you dual wield is chance for arcane surge on 1, cure with despair on #2. or if you stick to 1H and shield, then Despair curse on hit only.

At that point there is really no longer a reason to use Bane, freeing up a potential 4 link and 4 passive points from dual curse. So then you 4 link an Essence Drain. Essence Drain and Soul Rend STACK. Meaning for single target you soul rend as normal, and toss essence drain in every now and then for a larger boost in damage.

With that said. I really think some of the nodes below shadow area should be dropped in favour of grabbing either dark arts or Arcan Swfitness. depending on which play style you want. You'll loose a bit of damage however still have more than enough anyway but gain a lot more survivability.

Have a look at my apssive tree, I basically skipped the ES/Evasion nodes (ES and evasion is good enought without them) and took the full Dark Arts dual wield node, 3 other Dual wield nodes and took both Area of effect clusters.

I personally don't like taking that many jewel pre-90, usually go for 3 more jewel slots from 90 onwards to round out the build, and spend those points pre-90 on offensive/defensive nodes instead.

I also briefly looked over your gear, the only real tips I can give you are:
- try and get a Life flask with Bleed removal on it, I see you have it on another flask but it is a real QoL imporvemend to put it on your Health flask since when you heal, you actually want to heal :D
- Replace unleash support for Controlled Destruction (you don't need unleash for the clearspeed, it looks cool I agree, but not needed).

I also asume you just have Haste socketed to level it up? Grace and Melevolance should be your 2 aura's of choice

I am thinking about trying this build but I have few questions that naggs me :

Isnt bane better then soulrend ? If so why not use bane(Id not what are the main differences)

How does this build compare to the one that TarkCat made(If you've seen it that is)

Back to my first question if bane is better , would occultist be better ?


I am new to this whole chaos skills thing never used any blight nor ED so I dont know if there are interaction between the 2 skills

Hey there, i got a question :)

if i have a dagger with the Decay mod and Arcane Surge mod what would be the 6th gem in the 6link setup ?

Currently running:

Soulrend
Controlled Destruction
Efficacy
GMP
Swift Affliction
Arcarne Surge

But Arcane Surge is not neccesary for mapping but i need it for bosses, so what could be the 6th gem ?

I was thinking empower but that will screw up the coloring when you need to go back to Arcane Surge for Boss etc.

Thanks in advance.

Use Unleash to improve your clearspeed.

Use void manipulation instead of swift affliction and change gmp to swift affliction for single target. Your boss setup is correct.
