You can get away with a very mediocre wand for a long time, by investing in flat +chaos damage upgrades instead. Which I found to be a lot cheaper for starting. So grab the woke support gems, get the power siphon projectiles count high. Get the despair curse setup. Get the Aul's for free envy (+chaos dmg).
I used a wand with: poison mod, T2 crit%, crafted attack speed to clear the game (A8 sirus / shaper). One struggles at the top end with single target, but kinetic blast is just such an MVP for clearing so even red maps are easy enough apart from the boss. I have now just upgraded my wand by getting insanely lucky with crafting, and just want to show it off: A nice quality of life upgrade is also an explode chest, which you can then upgrade to +1 curse (and then grab temporal chains on hit for your belt). I struggled with int initially, and then decided to craft a rare shield with just +int and mass resists. Which is almost trivial to craft this league: This then free's up other slots to be more flexible. |

This build looks so fun. Is it SSF viable?
|
|
" Nvm i found an answer on page 87 |
|
" Isnt better to hit T1 CHAOS FLAT instead of that 27 to 49 Physical dmg? |
|
" Nah, I pobbed t1 flat chaos vs that and that wand was best (by around 5% over 2nd best option, what was just t1 phys + t1 as etc without tacati). Phys is more valuable because of stuff like unholy might and assassin phys as extra chaos. I have all possible combination of good mods wands here so you can check by yourself (in items section): https://pastebin.com/SBgWLGQv My builds:

Hi, so I just picked up this build because it looks pretty damn fun. I'm about a week into PoE so I'm still pretty nooby, even with a build guide to follow. One thing I don't really understand currently is how to utilize the different spells optimally.
I'm currently lv 41 and Have not switched over to Power Siphon just yet, but using the Kinetic Blast/Bladefall spell slinger. The damage I'm doing is ok, but what I don't get is how to use the other spells. When should I be casting wither? It seems that the cast time isn't fast enough to weave between KBs, so do I cast them before or after? The same thing with Despair and enduring cry, I don't really understand when to use them. Not just that but also there are so many things to bind that I find it particularly hard. Yet when I watch the montage videos at the end of the build guide, they seem to only be using the main attack and nothing else so should I be disregarding the other spell? I'm just a little unsure and if anyone can shine a bit of light onto my confusion that would be great! |
