[3.11] CoC Ball Lightning Assassin - 20M+ Shaper DPS/10k ES/fortify - League Starter Guide Included
" real attack rate (1) = attack rate (2) * action speed PoB shows (1), while the game shows (2). With tailwind your action speed is 1.1. If you don't have 14% CDR, your attack rate is too high. In fact, tailwind is unnecessary unless you have 52%+ CDR. You will most likely exceed the breakpoint if you have tailwind. | |
Thanks for the quick reply - guess I'll have to either get new boots for now or look into getting CDR and getting closer to the next breakpoint then.

do you have a guide on your new build? @N0esy

Hey guys ! Would appreciate some help on what to upgrade next in my gear :as im not a veteran player !
Here is my pastebin : https://pastebin.com/G80j2NA8 (Hope it is up to date, it seems that it is not updating well I dont know why) I have some questions : - What is the point of enlighten 4 ? I tried enlighten 4 instead of enlighten 3 and it changed only a little bit (I could only remove 1 mana reservation node in tree) - Are my cluster jewels good ? Haven't played in Delirium so I don't know much about them. Right now I have not enough skill points to take everything I would like to in the cluster jewels ? Maybe I could optimise my tree ? - For Flasks Im going to replace Cinderswallow with Bottled Faith. Most important upgrade ? - Im not sure about my BL links ? I cant take inspiration because my cyclone costs 0 mana - I bought a fire to attacks jewel to make full use of the Sadist notable, good choice ? - I feel like Im a bit low in ES which one of my gear piece lack of ES compared to your builds guys ? Thanks for your time :) |

" No, but I posted 4 videos in total, and I have answered many questions, too. I hope that's enough for you to copy my build. " Saving 1 passive point is good enough to use enlighten 4. " Your large cluster jewel is fine, but ideally you want to use one with "adds 8 passive skills". By using it you can save 1 passive point. For a small cluster jewel, you want to find energy from naught and good bonus mods. Dex, strength, and resistances are the most important bonus mods if you need them, otherwise look for int, flat ES, or increased effect of small passive skills for more ES. " I would use the wise oak instead of cinderswalow until I replace it with bottled faith. Your uncapped lightning resist is highest, so you don't have to change anything to use it. " Use lightning pen support instead of inspiration. " You can compare your gear with mine. Why is your sceptre corrupted? The prefixes are pretty bad, but you can't fix it because it's corrupted... You should look for another one. Последняя редакция: N0esy. Время: 27 июля 2020 г., 19:40:46

Ok, so my belt craft kinda bricked when I was merging, but whatevs, gonna be usable after some add/remove defence crafts.
Can definitely say this feels like one of the strongest builds I've played, atm my gear is shit as I've just transitioned into the 14+ CDR zone and I'm at an almost-perfect 7.55 APS but shit on my gear is all over the place and not even remotely close to optimized but I just did a semi juiced (like 140 quant base + alva + bloodline infuse) T16 and oh my god everything just melted and I was in literally no danger ever. Kudos for the guide, it has literally everything from the bottom up (leveling and the life transition build all up to crafting guides advice) and thanks to everyone participating with the harvest crafting advice ;) | |
I've been trying to retool my character for the last few weeks to shore up some things and am hoping someone literate in Path of Building can help me out.
My attack speed was 9+ with just the cooldown recovery from Awakened CoC so I took off my tailwind boots and onslaught ring, and retooled some passives and am wondering if maybe now my APS is too low? Does reduced Ball Lightning speed have diminishing returns for me? Would I be better off using something instead of Slower Projectiles? I had to remove Inspiration once I failed to get my Mana cost back up to 1 with it linked. I tried to tank up some so I got Disorienting Display for nearby enemies Blinded and Enduring Focus for Charges then had to use extra points to get Unwavering Focus, Arcane Swiftness, and Lucidity in order to regain the 100% Stun Immunity while Channeling. Any opinions on whether that was a good call at expense of some DPS and/or ES or was iot too many points spent to get there? Also wondering if I am okay with my crit chance as is now? Does Bottled Faith Crit Chance already calculate in PoB? I suck with PoB but did my best. Did I tick off the right boxes? Does my Militant Faith look right? ( I had trouble editing that ) Anyone more savvy than me want to take a peek at what needs fixing ? PASTEBIN: https://pastebin.com/aFYux0sW Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time.

I'm no expert on the build but overall your stats look pretty sick (500k BL damage, almost 10k ES) to me, apart from the attack speed. AFAIK you should aim to be as close to 7.56 (but not go over) according to the guide (if you're over 14% CDR) and you're at 5.67 (EDIT: 6.51 with your silver flask enabled - but still a ways off 7.56). 7.56/5.67 = 1.33333 so you could be theoretically dishing out 33.3% more BLs if you get it to exactly 7.56.
As far as slower projectiles is concerned, it's a staple from what I've seen in any BL build (alongisde having 40% increased area of effect) since it gives damage and significantly increases the chances your BL hits for the maximum of 13 times on a single target. 40% increased area of effect + slower projectiles support are an important combo for maximizing ST damage, and from what I can see in your PoB (didn't go into too much detail) you only have 20% increased area of effect? But do take anything I say with a grain of salt since as I said, I'm no expert. Последняя редакция: domepro. Время: 29 июля 2020 г., 6:40:06

Hey guys,
I love this buildguide big thx to the author and I've min-max'd this build allot during harvest league. I'm wondering what else I can upgrade or improve and would love your feedback. Once i get another level I'm gonna spec into the Blast Radius and drop 1 es node above Arcane Focus. That should put me on 40% increased Area of effect with the widespread Destruction from the large cluster jewel. pob: https://pastebin.com/zfe536P1 Hoping for some valuable insights thx in advance, Aeris out! |

" https://pastebin.com/X4KTcqC6 You'll have similar damage and 600 more ES. What you need is a good rare jewel, which is rather easy with harvest crafting, since you can aug defense for max %ES. I don't like additional curse on chest, ass mark grants you only 5% more shaper dps, which is worth 2 passive points. If you replace the curse mod with a flat ES, you'll gain 800+ ES, which is worth 4-5 passive points. You can also save 1 suffix slot on a ring. Последняя редакция: N0esy.
