[3.12] Hasunic's ED/C CI Trickster | Glancing Blows | Leaguestarter | Ailment Immunity | 1H + Shield
I had my first ever stab at Uber Atziri with this build. _Almost_ deathless -- she got me with an explosion after she died and I let my guard down.
I am not a good player, so this is a testament to how good this build is. Thanks, Hasunic! Edit: I've been tinkering with the belt slot. I think that non-influenced Crystal belts may be competitive with Bated Breath. I just crafted this without too much work: +80 to maximum Energy Shield (implicit) +51 to maximum Energy Shield +67 to maximum Life +42% to Fire Resistance +44% to Cold Resistance +215 to Evasion Rating (crafted) +25 to maximum Energy Shield (crafted) Extra 150 or so ES on the char. I did lose the 50% ES recharge rate, but the extra resistances really help. Последняя редакция: burbly1#2906. Время: 7 сент. 2020 г., 18:24:23

Hello Hasunic! Thanks for the guide! I might run with this next Heist League.
I decided to go SSF softcore. You think it could be viable for SSF softcore without harvest crafting? What will be the problems we will have to face? Is there a better guide for ED/contagion SSF without harvest? thanks for helping. |

It might be difficult to get the bases on SSF for the real super OP items, and also... Like crafting a shaper titanium shield/whatever with dense fossils and hitting 2 x T1-T3 ES + ES on block takes about 115 dense fossils.
I think it's hard to go from it being a good leaguestarter to the endgame grinder where you don't fear anything at all on ssf. I am playing trade myself next league. I've had enough ssf for now, but if the patch notes does not ruin everything, I will leaguestart ED/C. [3.9]Hasunic's Toxic Rain Trickster: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2712106

Damn, that doesn't sound good. I was hopeing to play SSF ED/contagion next league. But all the guides are so pimped and OP in specific items that it scares me to play it.

It's still in a good spot and ssf is always a grind :)

When i compare most guides. Before going CI, they call it the "life build"
its either 1 ) Glancing blows or 2 ) Phase acrobatics + winddancer or 3) Mind over mater + Eldritch battery. Your opinion about this. And what to use in which case - can't realy seem to distinguish why they use 1 or 2 or 3. |

I would go for GB myself. Theirs plentu of decent ssf ci gear that you can get and just slowly upgrade :)
Let's see the patch notes. They might brick gb [3.9]Hasunic's Toxic Rain Trickster: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2712106

4-link ED worked really well. I lost maybe 10% ED DPS and 500ES and in return approx. doubled the blight dps output. Makes a huge difference in play.
Next I'm going to experiment with LL to see what it plays like. |

Spellslinger
Triggering spells with Spellslinger was faster and more convenient than other methods of casting spells while leveling. It now has a longer cooldown but gains more cooldown recovery as it levels making it more rewarding to reach higher gem levels. The skill now starts with a reservation override of 30%, scaling down to 25% at gem level 20. ---------------------------------- I did the math. The issue is that Spellslinger now reserves at least 30% of mana, so having 3 of them with no support reserves 90% of mana. Adding ONE support (void manipulation) ANYWHERE gives you a 96% reservation. We can do Essence Drain and Contagion with full supports but we can't add Soulrend also and have more than 1 support. ---------------------------------- So the solution appears to be manually casting fully-supported Soulrend as well as Frenzy. So 2 buttons rather than one. Agreed? Последняя редакция: Graiaule#7461. Время: 15 сент. 2020 г., 2:13:26
