Hey All,


I only casually play one build a league, so I've been chugging along on this guy. I've gotten Path of Building DPS up to ~130k shaper per totem without EE (200k with), and it seems to be doing ok and there's still alot of room for equipment improvement. Still super easy to die in reds, but I figured I would leave my thoughts + my path of building pastebin(https://pastebin.com/efGTBduT)...

Overall totems feel like they are in a super weird spot: having to stop to place them AND then wait for them to fire and clear things is just inherently dangerous. The best way to survive in PoE is to just kill things before they can hit you, and totems explicitly slow that process down AND make you stand still.

This is even weirder when you can functionally double your DPS by standing still and constantly laying down totems... (after the first totem their attack rate becomes the totem placement rate rather than their attack speed). You need to stack something like +400 attack speed to get those two numbers anywhere near each other. But standing still is always super bad, especially against things you need that increased DPS for. Using Tukohama can help with this, but it still is scary given how generally squishy evade builds are - any chaos DPS ground is going to destroy you before you can respond, too.

Actually maybe useful tips:

I have found that easiest way to increase EH damage is by increasing the gem level. All league there have been pretty cheap (20c) bricked 6-link bows with the right socket colors: https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Metamorph/JorQkYhl

That being said, inspiration and hypothermia (as suggested by others here) make the build feel a lot smoother. 2B-2G-2R linked bows are even cheaper and in that case replacing inspiration with elemental proliferation can make mapping feel better in terms of clearing packs fast.

After that from messing around in path of building.. improving damage (from best to worst) you generally want:
Elemental Penetration
Attack Speed
Critical Multiplier
Accuracy until you hit 100%
Elemental Damage
Critical Chance
Bow Damage / Projectile Damage / Damage

I use a diamond flask, sulfur flask and a granite flask. A good granite flask will give you 20% physical reduction.. which made it possible to push into t14+ without dying instantly. Consecrated ground is basically the only only non-life flask way to regenerate life, and gives us increased crit chance against things (it is super super unfortunate totems don't trigger our inquisitor ground effect). Lucky crit chance is a solid 15% damage boost and makes +crit multiplier even more value.

I'm also using Hyrri's Ire as a chest piece.. a solid rare one with a good life roll and "take %of physical damage as elemental damage" would almost certainly be better.

Thanks both the Wrecker_of_Days and uhuhuh.
I Am using this build on ps4 and its doing ok for me at the moment,
especialy because it doesnt have so much going on on the screen so there arent many fps drops :)

Awesome Zverinica!

I'm glad it's going well for you! It's a good build for console for sure. Whereabouts are you in the game?

Currently lvl91 doing T14 maps and delve depth 175.
Only problem with console is its trading so its harder to optimize gear
