[3.10] Aziire's Kinetic Bolt Elementalist - Thor and the Golem Gang! | League Starter

As mana reservation is being discussed a lot here, I want to throw in another option which can be useful before having all ascension points: skilling Eldritch Battery.
That way you can activate 2 Herald + Wrath and use energy shield instead of mana for skills - which (at least for my build currently) would be at 0 most of the time anyway due to Blood Rage.

I have also played with the build today and will probably try something like that:
http://poeurl.com/cNeL

This allows me to run 3 Herald + Wrath + Precision (maybe another aura instead of Herald of Ash).
I'll also use The Anima Stone for a 5th golem (even more bonuses from them and they are also more buffed in my build).
I guess I can neither run Spellslinger (instead of a Herald) nor CWDT then, though, due to limited gem slots.
I'll probably using a shield instead of dual wield as I don't enjoy dying too often.

What do you think about this? I haven't played PoE for a long time and I, e.g., have no idea if those minion passives pay off (note: minion damage increase also applies to me).

Just letting people know if you choose 2 cotb and have snowstorm, you're gimping your dmg

I maybe am missing something, but can't find the Snowstorm passive skill? Is it a new passive with the new jewels?

Probably a stupid question,going maps already but how i can use Herald of ice,Thunder and wrath at the same time + precision?Without precision,they make already 100% mana reserved

What should i get in 5 link chest? I have tabula but i bought chest from guide but only 5 link

elemental ascendency, one of the passives gives mana reduction for heralds

Not sure if we are converting physical to elemental damage, but what about isning as couple of Moonsorrow wands? https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Moonsorrow

Great build guide. I used this as a base and went the assassin ascendancy for more survivability and crit. I'm cruising through maps with KBolt with lightning orb and arc+gunslinger. Here's a video of a conqueror map. I know its only a tier 4 but i'm not into reds yet. To all the doubters of Kbolt, this skill is fine with gunslinger but like any wander you need to have good gear to be able to do single target as well.

nice! u seems to be doing a lot of damage right now, glad it's working well for u

Something I think people might be missing is this build doesn't come together until you get ele pen. up until the 4th ascendancy elites felt like bosses if they had any ele resistance. And a lot of mobs have ele resistance. It really felt like my single target was crap until then. Right now at tier 10 only the stupid on death effects are killing me assuming I don't mess up mechanics.

Hell half the time i can just stand in place and with the freezing and dps I am getting bosses just melt. Well except metamorph kitava and well that is that...

Checking in again! Currently lvl 82 and blazing thru maps. Clear is great and bosses, aside from some metas, are no prob.

Questions about wands: is added lightning dmg on wands a stat priority? Im still rocking 2 Moonsorrows and just relying on the Herald for the lightining dmg.

Is CotB basically useless until we get the lightning dmg on the wands?

Here's current gear btw..




I'm using orb of storms for my curse lol...dunno if that's dumb, but it's working great so far.

Currently trying this out because I was interested in Kinetic Bolt. I'm currently farming Red maps with little to no challenge. Most of the issues come from the lack of survivability from the lack of life nodes. ES is completely negated by the fact that we use Blood rage for AS which removes quite a bit out of my EHP. Out of the two setups you posted (Luxury and Cluster), Cluster is by far the way to go for the defensive nodes. Is there any advice you could provide me?
