[3.13] Power Siphon/Kinetic Blast Poison Assassin - Very fast and tanky poison wander

In what universe is 3m dps not amazing? Holy moly in what times we live now. Im actually happy when league starters get to 500k dps and with 500k you can clear literally everything in the game deathless already.

What kind of hp will the assasin be able to hit? do you think it'll be enough for this league?

To counter the loss of speed, can we go with a QOTF instead also?

Thing is, i want to do some end game content also so bossing too... 3m DPS is not amazing :(

To OP any chance you can do a dedicated assasin post on the ass forums for this?

If you go QOTF you first of all lose speed, you have to make up the loss with evasion. prolly around 25k eva on a budget so you prolly faster without. You have to get like 40-45k evasion to make QOTF work well. Got nerfed couple leagues ago too.

As Pathfinder you will get easy 40-45k. Assa i doubt, it wont be "cheap" at least. The rare parts used are allready eva based. Unique shield 1k eva is not terrible. You will end up with like 35k evasion thats not enough imo.

3m dps with a couple seconds rampup is actually pretty decent. For that amount of gear written in pob.

The "default" gear on pob will take you to 6.6k life with 200% allocated on tree. The Chest is pretty pog tho. The rare parts are good. I think 6k life is very good archievable. The "starter" gear is taking you up to 6.3k but the rings are actually very good even for the first week or 2 in the league 75AR//70ML ..

//edit
4k or 5k or 6k HP on an QoTF build with stacking evasion is enough. If you dont play mecanics and dont evade the hit your dead. No Matter 4/5/6k HP.

Ok thank you.

So you think the movement speed with assasin is going to be still top tier then for mapping?

Also - will the leveling skills, and end game gear all be the same as the assasin variant? Also, whats the ceiling for this build in terms of currency as I usually only play one build each league.. Will I be able to continually improve the character with big upgrades, or will he be at peak strength quite soon? (Like 10 exa or so)

No. did you read the last 3 pages btw?
we had some pretty nice words about PF / ASSA / Clearspeed / Damage

if not.

IMO!!: (must not be yours) Pathfinder will outclass Assa in raw speed.
Assa will have the better/easier leaguestart better in defens more damage for less invest and more damage overall.

So I finally found enough time to update the build. As we lost a lot of damage from barrage ninja nerf, I had to make up for it, so decided to drop Skitterbots for Malevolence and switched to lower level precision. This bumps the build DPS to around 3.6M, what is pretty nice (and for assassin 4M+). I also added level 90 Assassin tree and replaced Shield Charge with Whirling Blades in leveling section (because of vendor availability). Here is updated PoB:

Be careful with this, the Less damage on barrage support was changed from less proj to less damage, so this build now does 62% less. Still not terrible, but closer to 1m dps.

Nope, I already updated the build to account for that. Originally it was doing 7M, after the ninja nerf it went to around 3M, now we are back at 3.6M. The nerf hurts a lot, but manageable

Thanks for keeping us up to date. I am really looking forward to this.
Quick question:

Level with Toxic Rain/Caustic Arrow and switch to our beloved wander around beginning of maps?
I'm looking for a good point to switch to wand skills. Maybe someone even nows, how to level as wander from lvl. 28 on?

Yeah TR leveling shoul be pretty solid. I would probably switch as soon as I would get Obliteration wand, but before that probably no, there are not many unique wands that would be good for leveling. You culd maybe do wander from 31 as you get added chaos damage, but before that it will most likely not do much.
