Hi guys,

I'm having a lot of problems with single target DPS. I don't have a Darkscorn yet due to lack of currency (despite having a dream last night about finding a mirror and 66 exalt, I'm still broke in game). I am using Wither totem as was recommended for red maps. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Get your gems to 20/20 at least! Very important.
Thats a big boost in DPS.
Scourge Arrow, Added Chaos, Unbound Ailments... they have all 0% Quality.
Besides that your gear is not bad at all, really.
I had very similar gear like you before Darkscorn and I can tell you that the potential is there, dont worry.

Other stuff:

- Your Circle of Nostalgia can have to damage mods (you are missing the increased buffs of herald of agony from the ring)
- On your Amulet the spell damage is useless
- On your ring the lightning damage is useless
- AS you have fire damage to attacks, you could run Cinderswallow flask, its more dps and more QOL (life and mana gain)



But focus on leveling your gems first, thats free DPS, no investment needed (ok maybe a gemcutters at Zana lol)


Edit, oh yes and Malevolence and Precision as someone else just mentioned. I would drop skitterbots for malevolence.

Hello, im lvl 91 now.. and i wanted to get up to 95.. which maps you guys run? i tested Glacier Monolith Farming Lvl 90 but that seems to be nerfed? and the Vaal temple is a bit expensive.. is there any good map that i can run this patch Metamorph leage?

hello, this reads like you are not really up to date any more.

There has been a complete atlas rework with the release of Metamorph League.
The new system wants us to run "regions" of maps now, rather than one single map. I dont even know how easy it is to sustain one map, but horizon orbs are a good possibilty to at least reroll your maps (within the same tier) that you dont like. Not sure if people are still e running the same map over and over again. Besides this, sustaining maps in general is as easy as it ever was.
You literally just need to play the game to build up a huge map pool.

Anyways, at the moment I really like to run:


- City Square
- Promenade
- Caldera
- Carcass
- Summit


Cheers

Well looking at your character, I would start with recrafting the bow as it is missing flat chaos, what is very important, without it you are missing huge chunk of your damage. Also you have bunch of elemental damage with attacks crafts what are not doing anything, replace them with flat chaos/attack speed etc.

Also you are not running Corallito so your poison chance most likely is not 100%, what loses you *huge* amoutn of damage, get corallito asap or run Poison support in main links. You want 100% poison chance always as priority #1

I got a question, on circle of nostalgia, instead of increased buff effect, wouldn't chaos resistance would be better? I mean it gives like %40 chaos resistance and that would allow us to buy another item without chaos resistance. For example I'm using 2 of my crafted stuff on chaos resistance for %30 chaos.

Any ideas?

If you are running darkscorn/divine flesh, reaching the essential capped chaos resistance (85%) can be tricky, so I've seen many builds (poe.ninja) running nostalgias with increased chaos resistance and increased buff effect implicits. Notice that it's common to replace the increased chaos damage implicit and not the increased buff effect one.

Some also run 2 nostalgias (given you can sort out e.g. your life and resistances), one with chaos res/buff effect and one with chaos dmg/buff effect.

I'm experimenting myself with 2 pure damage nostalgias (both chaos dmg/buff effect) and reaching capped chaos resistances from gear instead, but as you mention this may come of the cost not having life/res/utils optimal gear elsewhere. I wrote a post/question about this trade-off at page 182 of this thread, but I'm yet to get an answer from someone on this topic.

That's weird. Herald of agony is basically %10 more poison damage, if you get increased buff effect at %100 it is %20 more poison damage. It's like a passive worth of damage upgrade. You can get double more damage than that with a single jewel. Meanwhile %40 chaos resistance may allow you swapping your 2 chaos resistance items to non chaos resistance ones, that would be a huge upgrade.

Another thing about swapping increased chaos damage, I've checked it on PoB:

Increased chaos damage = 70500 DPS, 25900 Poison DPS
Increased buff effect = 66200 DPS, 26900 Poison DPS

So they look similar but increased chaos damage looks better. Am I missing something here?

Thanks for the help, i will try with these changes and see how it goes. The bow i cant do much about, i bought it like that, once i have more currency maybe i can swap it out.

Playing this build currently in 3.9, but I've having problems with mana. Should I swap to a mana flask or get some manaleech nodes?

Nice build so far :)

Yeah, before getting - mana cost body just run enduring mana or hybrid flask, that solves all mana issues. You can also grab some mana leech on tree, but to get reliable leech from that you would have to invest into whole essence sap
