[3.13 UPDATED] gr0bbs | Poison Blade Vortex | Budget Viable | Endgame 50Mil+ DPS | Video Guide
just started going into maps, can do t15/16s at 70, but literally everything 1 shots me even in white maps.
Is there any way to improve survivability? We get almost no life from items and node multipliers arent really cutting it with such a low life pool | |
I started the league late (two days ago) and decided this time around I will go off the beaten path and won't play the Fotm builds. I like the idea of dodge builds so I was like, what can lay waste to maps supper fast yet is not expensive and ended up landing my search on this build.
The only thing my poe pals helped me was a Taby, everything else I brought on my own expense. Two days in and roughly 60-ish chaos spent on some early maps gearing and I am completely destroying every piece of content I come across. The only downside is that if I want to go big D mode and run super juiced maps I'd need at least 10 ex worth of gear, but hey, I don't really run multiple toons so I have some extra progress to look forward to. Question - what are some low hanging fruits (gear/spec upgrades) for when I switch off from the Taby and Goldrims and in to some mapping gear? Any stepping stone items I can use till I get a proper diadem and chest piece? Also, I see that with +7 quality blade vortex gains another point in radius, which seems sweet? Have you considered when making the build? | |
" Get power or frenzy charge on crit, It really doesn't matter too much until you can afford the dmg over time ones :) " Glad you're enjoying it! I found atk/cast speed fine once I had quality on my gems and stuff, but feel free to mess around with it and let me know what you find! " Yeah that was a mistake, no point in grabbing the Node on the tree when we run the flask, we will have it up most of the time. As for witchfire brew, it's pointless if you're running despair on blasphemy, you'd get much more use out of a different flask. " Good feedback, glad you're enjoying, I didn't die from level 80-90 once and I ran nothing but red maps.. Chisel alch and go.. If you stack a few poisons and move you don't get hit, they die so fast :) " For me, i ended with 55 deaths at level 91 running only RED maps fully juiced, this was including Max watchstone conquerors, As long as we save vaal bv, put down our wither totems and hit our flasks the boss only needs 3 or 4 seconds of us hitting it to die, But i'm glad you're enjoying the build :) " I have 55 deaths, level 91 with a almost completed atlas, did 2 awakener fights too. We have high evasion, if that fails we have capped dodge, if that fails we can get one shot but by that time most mobs are dead. " I had 4.4k life and went full damage mode, I didn't seem to need more. My PoB has a defensive option which will put you around 5k life. " Good to hear mate! Welcome to the league. First thing I would get is the diadem, its cheap, gives us SO much quality of life.. Lets us run more auras etc. Second thing would be a +2 Tabula, theyre like 20 chaos Then you can go onto more expensive things :) (3.9) | Poison BV Assassin (Crush T15 Metamorphs on a budget)

Man people are sleeping on this build right now. Picked up a +2 AoE gems Skin for 2 ex today and it was sitting there for a while. Feel like that's good/great value.
Also got a Increased Damage over Time Bino's, for clear this is just as good as an Iron Point but like 1/10th of the price if not more. Definitely not finding as many ways to improve my damage now though since we use a lot of uniques. Need to invest in 21 gems now, Awakened Unbound is affordable thankfully. |

this is my gear atm im farming with my necro and trying buy items for him atm wha should i aim for now | |
Sup all - Thanks for the build write-up Grobbs. I wanted to share my variation of Poison BV. Im an OG BV player and really missed the shatter effect. Dont get me wrong, poison BV dmg is incredible but not as satisfying if you know what i mean.
So...after lots of experimentation, I came to my current build which works very similar to the herald version in which you blow up (shatter) all the mobs while you're running through the map. I can do t16s in around a minute depending on which layout. The main synergy is obliteration wands and the crusader explode mod. Obliteration on their own works ok, but holy crap, the explode just really brings the build together. I used to have a cold-point weapon swap but once I swapped out one of my gems with void manipulation, i haven't needed to swap. This change really helped boost the dmg of the wands. the hardest t16 metamorphs still melt very quickly and once the first set of adds come out, just kill the adds and the metamorph will blow up with them most of the time. A couple things I do differently -- I really like blasphemers gloves. you can get the spell crit corrupt for very cheap or life % which are both great options. You get a nice dmg boost and health just by slotting elder items. I run vitality with LoH Watcher's Eye for sustain (very reliable). I also run malevolence, agony and despair from impresence. You can use an enlighten 4 to make this work. Also, the helmet is a good option that Grobbs has in his build if you can't afford the enlighten. I'm gonna try a setup with spider aspect and coralito's. Also, my build can get pretty tanky. I can get up to 6.5k hp but i chose to go with aoe nodes so i'm sitting around 5.5k. Keep in mind that the bigger aoe you have, the better sustain you have through watchers eye if you are using LoH. Anyways, take a look at my setup if you're interested. Currently Im working on putting together a badge of brotherhood version with max power charges and we'll see where that leads me but im very happy with this explosion build. Super fun and fast. (also can run any map mod which is always nice especially if you are doing fully juiced corrupted maps) |

I dont get how the LoH vitaly is helping there ?

I have 2 ex bugdet atm, what I should upgrade next? |

" Try to snipe a +2 skin. Buy multiple dagger to corrupt. | |
The build is amazing but I think I will have to say goodbye coz seems like casting BV over and over again to keep it 10 started to get me bored/annoyed :P
But so far its the only build I love that uses evasion as defense |
