Can you remove "CHEAP" from the title ? thanks.

It is cheap for ssf, Doing this in Gauntlet, end game is spendy but lots of dmg with minimal investment early maps. I found a reflect mod hidden in a map so I am starting again. Stop trying to be edgy.

No it's not, the clarity Watcher's Eye alone is 195 Exalted Orbs. without the end-game version which will cost you 100s more ex this build can not do much. calling it "CHEAP" is dishonest and is a lie. Stop acting like you are in a beehive and have to attack every signle word you don't like.

The watcher's eye isn't required. The build is 100% viable without one.

I've been playing with a increased lightning damage while affected by wrath watcher's eye, you can buy one of those for 40 chaos, and I'm still pushing out 20 million DPS, which is enough to melt anything in the game.

I'd disagree with *false*. Folks on these forums prefer raw DPS numbers over complex calculations. If you join the discord, you'll notice the conversations there are all based on damage per hit, which is a far superior indicator of how well you're scaling damage.

4-8 million if you're playing SSF, maybe. If you're in trade league and have access to watcher's eyes, awakened gems, and good weapons, it's entirely possible to get more than enough damage to one shot single phase bosses. I'm not running particularly good gear, and I'm pushing 400k / hit. On large model bosses it's trivial to max out the 50 blades limit on blade blast, which puts me at 20 million per cast. I have enough mana and mana regen to support spamming it 3 times at need.

As for SSF viability, poe.ninja shows this as the #2 build on HCSSF, behind the Gladiator / Scion Exsanguinate setups, which might be technically 2 different builds, I haven't looked in the Gladiator variant. The Scion is great fun, and even better at Ultimatums than this, but doesn't have the raw DPS output this does for tough bosses. Or maybe I just didn't push it to a high enough level, or invest enough into the gear! ;)

Hilariously, I've dropped 3 cloaks this league, and zero essence worms. Good thing I play trade league. :D

The Maven fight is plain weird. In my experience, she's highly variable - some fights have been super easy, some were impossible. There's a learning curve as well, to say the least. Especially with builds like this that have a lot of ground level Fx that obscure the memory game indicators.

I'm not sure why you need a clarity watcher's eye for bossing. I do fine with my Wrath one. I'm not even convinced we need one - removing mine is a 7.5% drop in DPS, which doesn't seem game breaking.

I league started with this build, and I've used it to fund an exsanguinate build and an arc totem build. Both of those were fun for a few days, but I'm back to playing this and headed for level 100. I haven't decided if I want to grind out the full 40 challenges this league, but I might.
