Changelog 3.2 Swap Avatar of the Veil for Avatar of the Chase. This provides better offense and defense, and is now sustainable on bosses. Hey, so I re-factored the gear presentation and added some new assets & animations. Does this variation of going through the gear work better for you guys? If not, is there anything I could add to improve it? Thanks!
I loved the new presentation of gear. I've been following your videos for a long time and I'm always surprised by the high quality of them. Keep up the good work.
Been using this build on SSF bestiary to farm my headhunter and i have to say, you weren't lying. This is definitely in my top 5 for mapping and it worked great even as a league starter, huge thanks!
Long time watcher, first time commenter--love the new overall presentation. Just had to say I've just reached endgame with this build and it's been a ton of fun--even threw in a CoH-Conductivity-Bladefall-Inc. Duration for funsies and that's given a nice little debuff. Anyway, I've played three or four of your builds now and every single one of them has been enjoyable and does exactly what you expect them to (though mileage may occasionally vary based on gearing of course)! Thanks for all the hard work you put into these builds!
Just when I was about to give up a little bit and ask here in your channel if this drops anymore, Uber Hillock spawned and gave me a pretty good one. Almost perfect rolls. Thanks for this great channel and amazing content.
The quality of your videos is something else. IMO, it shows alot of effort on your part for each video. The animation, text, showcase. Blahhh its all so good.
Eternal great video man, for real i like your vids more than anyone else in poe atm, you are very clear and dont shit talk about the build or anything, good job man!
i don't know if the problem with me only , but if i turn on the herald of ash buff , i get fire damage on me , i dunno what is the problem , i picked the same gear , i don't know what i miss , if u can help i will be thankful
Well good Job Sir i have to say i was a bit hesitant to go into this but was getting really tired of going cyclone or warchief every league so i thought ill give it a shot and im having a blast so thank you oh and good luck to the ppl that going to farm the sword took me half a day but it least i got a 1 off perfect crit roll
So far this build is a lot of fun. I'm in the 80s with it and I agree with EE that lightning strike isn't the best for bosses, but having blade flurry available on a weapon swap make it very efficient. If anything, lightning strike feels like KB in terms of clearing, which is great in my book.
I have made an Ascendant version with Slayer and Raider and "Life Leech effects are not removed at Full Life" really helps to deal with the fire degen from her embrace.
I found that if you're not using the tombfirst gloves, curse on hit with warlords mark and orbs of storms helps you with defenses a lot and some more regen.
I really wanna know the answer to this. You are chosing vaal pact? And using life regen flask plus taking life regen notes? And are you using mana regen og mana leech? What am i messing here?
Regarding the ascendancy choice, I would use the onslaught and frenzy nodes since her blessing makes avatar of the veil not as useful since they both grant immunity to elemental status ailments, and the her blessing is specifically not onslaught so they stack together =D
First of all i want to say i really enjoy your guides! Played this build as a second character, during this Abyss league. Could this actully be a league starter, for the upcoming League?
Another great guide. Question: How do you deal with whirling blades eating all mana during sustained use? I used your Molten Scion build last season which had WB linked to blood magic. This build doesn't and I keep running dry of mana. Any tips?
Why do we take +30 str over Master of the Arena? I know Vaal Pact cancel out life regen, but theres other goodies there too. (New player, this is my first build\char - Great guide!)
@Engineering Eternity would switching out the crit damage on the Oni Goroshi for Ignite Chance Support be viable in the long run? I've been testing it out and so far it would seem that having the extra 49% chance to ignite might be the stronger option as my Ranger frequently has the "Her Embrace" buff up. I was also wondering how you mitigate the mana loss when spamming Lighting Strike without using a mana flask? Thanks for yet another excellent build.
Wow looks so cool!! Do you think it is still gonna be good in the new League (Bestiary)? Do you think it is easy to kill end game bosses either with that?
wanted to use it as league starter, but GGG just announced that oni goroshi will be somewhat nerfed, as in, longer to get ... and more variance in stats on drop ...
I might go with this build for the league, though I'd prefer Wild Strike. How hard is the sword to find now? I heard they added a lot of variance to the spawn rates in 3.2.
Hey, Great guide once again! I was just wondering what supports to use because on the pastbin link in Path of Building there is 6 support gems instead of 5 so i don't know which one to drop or swap out
Doubt if you will read this, Engineering Eternity. But thanks for the guide, i followed it in the incursion league, and I am liking it alot at the moment. However I do not understand the 'Fencing' passive skill including all perequisites in your final tree build. We are using a two-hander, but the skill reads only buffing 1-hander skill. Am i missing something here, or is it a mistake?
Any thoughts on Berek's Respite unique two stone ring for this build ? I have no idea how good/bad its effects are, but reading its description, it seems like a not so bad item, especially for a lightning/burning build
What's the reason for the CWDT gem on Immortal Call being level 8 without leveling the Immortal Call gem? Level 8 CWDT allows for a level gem requiring 52 which would allow for a level 10 immortal call right?
Hey, I just have simple question about bfury singletarget in this setup. Pretty much dont we convert anything of it at all? Or is simply the added damage from hatred, her blessing and hoa enough to rather scale the base damage of bladeflurry instead of converting all?
how do you use kaom's heart in your build? it requires nearly 200 strength and i dont see how you get enough of that with rings and amulet... or at least is it just me? please answer D: it looks really cool on clip
In the leveling tips section You mentioned that we need a mana flask if we dont have Elreon -# Mana Cost jewellery or Thief's torment, but you didn't show any of these in the gear. I guess i might have missed something. How does the build sustain mana without any of the items mentioned earlier? Great guide btw
Hi there, im fairly new to the PoE and i'm a bit confused about Immortal Call!?! We dont have an Endurance Charge Generator in this build, or do i miss something?
This build is sick it should be re-named to the clapper. I get maybe 15-20 lightning strikes a sec! And with ancestral call all I hear is clap clap clap face tanking everything. But I didn't use a kaom's heart just an ashrend buckskin tunic with a theif's torment. GG.
Only thing with Onslaught on raider ascendancy is on Quartz Infusion. It is written clearly "You have Phasing while you have Onslaught". It is not "You have Onslaught while you have Phasing ". Getting Phasing is easy as it has "Gain Phasing for 3 seconds on Kill" on Quartz Infusion. EE didn't choose Rapid Assault ascendancy node as it is the only thing on raider ascendancy with "Gain Onslaught for 3 seconds on Kill". So now my question is, How can you even gain Onslaught effect with the same tree and with the same items EE has shown us ?
But according to the POB link of EE , he is not even using any abyss jewel with that mod. That's why I was confused so much in the first place. There is literally no chance to gain onslaught according to the tree. But I can go Graceful assault to gain 10% chance to gain Onslaught for 3 seconds on Kill below the Thick Skin cluster. It will take extra 4 points though.Nice build BTW. Will try soon. Thank you EE for a nice build :)
Can only farm Oni-Goroshi on the Twilight Strand; if you enter town after killing Hillock, you can never farm it with that toon again. Need to level up to 7 on Twilight Strand, which takes a lot of run throughs (just kill every critter every time), but worth it... I got my Oni on the 12th farming run after hitting level 7! (I rotated 3 characters so that the instance reset was never a problem)
Realize that the sword will drop after you reach level 7 however it could take many runs before it Does! Also I noticed that Hillock changes color a bit and he also is much harder to Kill! I have found 2 swords & my pal has found 5! It just takes a lot of runs
Belly for more defense, Inpulsa for better clear (some more dps with shock up) & yriel for flat better damage. It depends on what you are lacking, and since they do not need to be linked, you can get most for a reasonable price.
Ty Im also trying to get them linked so i can have teh blade flury build on aswell i bought the yriel ! Ty for the reply and the great guide! PM : Im liking your Molten Struck Scion Alot
I'm new and I am lvl 82 with this build, but I don't understand the CWDT/ice golem/ancestral protector/herald. Can you elaborate why this is done before I invest in the links?
The CwDT just summons the Ice Golem since I am lazy. Ancestral Protector doesn't really require links, since we just use it for the attack speed. Herald is just Herald and there due to remaining socket use.
Engineering Eternity thanks for that, I had used a lot of currency respecting. I was trying to save a little. I need a belly or Kohms but the market is jacked up on Xbix
Not Dave i'd think so. I'm playing as oni frostblades and molten strike slayer, swapping between the two and I'm pathed through ranger and kinda into trickster. This playstyle seems really similar to mine.

Hey, so I re-factored the gear presentation and added some new assets & animations. Does this variation of going through the gear work better for you guys? If not, is there anything I could add to improve it? Thanks!
you have stun immunity from her embrace soooo soul of the brine king isn't that useful
+Husito Ha I totally forgot it provided stun immunity. I was just going through the steps for Pantheons. Oh well.
I loved the new presentation of gear. I've been following your videos for a long time and I'm always surprised by the high quality of them. Keep up the good work.
Feels good
Its shit
Thank you for yet another excellent guide.
So easy to follow, well explained and visually professional. 10/10 every time sir !!
Already level 50 on this build a day after the video. Super fast leveling, fun mechanics, and op. Thanks!
Using Elemental Focus in your Blade Flurry will prevent you from getting Ignites for "Her Embrace".
But you will lose a ton of damage in doing so, since Her Embrace gives 123% of weapon physical damage as fire.
Been using this build on SSF bestiary to farm my headhunter and i have to say, you weren't lying. This is definitely in my top 5 for mapping and it worked great even as a league starter, huge thanks!

Thumbs up on the format tweaks. A top notch video and build, as always.
Wow Thanks for sharing this build!. Awesome for clear speed fun and excellnet to map!
Yet another awesome spin on a common unique.
Love the guide, Brian. Keep it up!
Wish you'd stream more (RL and GF, I know :) )
You are the best poe build guide provider in youtube
Thankk you so much!
I am playing the build not because of the build, because of the quality of the guide
i don't know if the problem with me only , but if i turn on the herald of ash buff , i get fire damage on me , i dunno what is the problem , i picked the same gear , i don't know what i miss , if u can help i will be thankful
Hi,im leveling this build right now.
Thanks a lot for the amazing work done,the wroted guide is really usefull !
Nice presentation and video, GL
Always release a new build when I am going to build a new char. Thks so much
love your builds and new gear presentation :)
Nice, very good! Thanks!
Awesome edit job men...
Man, this build looks really fun.
Great improvements of the video !!!
Well good Job Sir i have to say i was a bit hesitant to go into this but was getting really tired of going cyclone or warchief every league so i thought ill give it a shot and im having a blast so thank you oh and good luck to the ppl that going to farm the sword took me half a day but it least i got a 1 off perfect crit roll

What's your take on the viability of the oni-goroshi with your scion molten strike build?
I have made an Ascendant version with Slayer and Raider and "Life Leech effects are not removed at Full Life" really helps to deal with the fire degen from her embrace.
Love your guides good sir.
for me it is like christmas,if you upload a new build. great job
I must admit, i'm having so much fun doing this and this sword is making the game ... quite fun and risky in Hardcore
I found that if you're not using the tombfirst gloves, curse on hit with warlords mark and orbs of storms helps you with defenses a lot and some more regen.
I really wanna know the answer to this.
You are chosing vaal pact? And using life regen flask plus taking life regen notes?
And are you using mana regen og mana leech?
What am i messing here?
Atm i'm trying to get the sword, just in time to play around with this build! Thanks EE!
Regarding the ascendancy choice, I would use the onslaught and frenzy nodes since her blessing makes avatar of the veil not as useful since they both grant immunity to elemental status ailments, and the her blessing is specifically not onslaught so they stack together =D
AutoTauri also can use a jewel to gain the phasing tbh
I use an Abyss Jewel for onslaught. Veil provides more benefits in terms of gearing/extended fights.
First of all i want to say i really enjoy your guides! Played this build as a second character, during this Abyss league. Could this actully be a league starter, for the upcoming League?
Another great guide. Question: How do you deal with whirling blades eating all mana during sustained use? I used your Molten Scion build last season which had WB linked to blood magic. This build doesn't and I keep running dry of mana. Any tips?
Hi! Will there be any update on this build for 3.9? Looking to upgrade and play this build again!
Why do we take +30 str over Master of the Arena? I know Vaal Pact cancel out life regen, but theres other goodies there too. (New player, this is my first build\char - Great guide!)
What about herald of thunder + wrath ? (love herald of thunder gore effect) >_>
Hello! I noticed you put the "Immortal call" as level 1 and was wondering what the difference is from level 1 or any other level? Thank you!
nice build guide
@Engineering Eternity would switching out the crit damage on the Oni Goroshi for Ignite Chance Support be viable in the long run? I've been testing it out and so far it would seem that having the extra 49% chance to ignite might be the stronger option as my Ranger frequently has the "Her Embrace" buff up.

Wow looks so cool!! Do you think it is still gonna be good in the new League (Bestiary)? Do you think it is easy to kill end game bosses either with that?
wanted to use it as league starter, but GGG just announced that oni goroshi will be somewhat nerfed, as in, longer to get ... and more variance in stats on drop ...
is the herald of ashe important ? i can't handle the dmg from it ? is there any second choice ?
Great guide as always. What do you think about using wildstrike with this build?
You can use Wildstrike for sure! I was using it for awhile, but found Lightning Strike smoother.
does the Oni_Goroshi sword more dps than a rare sword + shaper stat stick?
I might go with this build for the league, though I'd prefer Wild Strike. How hard is the sword to find now? I heard they added a lot of variance to the spawn rates in 3.2.
Because of all the generic damage nodes could I remove point blank and use a different skill for mapping?
Hey, Great guide once again! I was just wondering what supports to use because on the pastbin link in Path of Building there is 6 support gems instead of 5 so i don't know which one to drop or swap out
where are you getting accuracy? isnt it worth to raisa maximum fire res? what about ditching vaal pact and getting some regen
Hi EE, is this build work with 3.3 patch ?
How do u sustain ur whirling blades without blood magic?
Doubt if you will read this, Engineering Eternity. But thanks for the guide, i followed it in the incursion league, and I am liking it alot at the moment.
However I do not understand the 'Fencing' passive skill including all perequisites in your final tree build. We are using a two-hander, but the skill reads only buffing 1-hander skill. Am i missing something here, or is it a mistake?
Yes, oni goroshi is a one hander that just uses two slots! so it counts for one hander nodes
late reply but oni goroshi is a one handed sword that takes up two melee slots and can have 6 sockets
Hello! If the body armor has 6 slots, what ability to use against the bosses?
still viable in 3.4?
Must have missed it, but how do you get pierce?
The guide is working and everything is great but one thing I don't know, how do you get your freenzy charges? :c
Raider Ascendancy
oh ye i didn't saw it xd thanks :) ps: you did a good job with this guide keep it up ^^
Any thoughts on Berek's Respite unique two stone ring for this build ? I have no idea how good/bad its effects are, but reading its description, it seems like a not so bad item, especially for a lightning/burning build
Ok, seeing the price on poe trade, my guess is that the effect is pretty darn good
is this a good season starter build?
Great vid EE,is it possible to use this sword with chaos build and if not can you show us chaos witch build?:)
Im having alot of issues with mana, any tips?
Are there any budget replacements for onigoroshi? I cant afford it yet and I've been farming it for 10 hours now and so far no luck ):
awesome video, is ashrend tunic good with oni goroshi?
Just curious , I'm still new to the game , abyss was first league / character ever , do you think this build will still be viable in bestiary league ?
love ur build , iwas wondering what bandits should i do?
The guide tells you!
What's the reason for the CWDT gem on Immortal Call being level 8 without leveling the Immortal Call gem? Level 8 CWDT allows for a level gem requiring 52 which would allow for a level 10 immortal call right?
James Shoemaker because the up time on IC don’t get bigger with levels only if Enduring cry charges are uset 👍🏻
does this only work on ranger?
how would vaal lightning strike work in this build?
wouldn't a assins mark on hit ring be optimal for some juicy power charges too ?
Yea you could try that out, just filling resistances becomes tougher
Hey, I just have simple question about bfury singletarget in this setup. Pretty much dont we convert anything of it at all? Or is simply the added damage from hatred, her blessing and hoa enough to rather scale the base damage of bladeflurry instead of converting all?
I have 40%phy to cold from passive tree and it works pretty well. About 15k damage 7.8 APS
Can this build work in other classes?
Hi Brian! Do you think about this build is viable to 3.3?
I believe that it is, nothing has really changed since last patch.
Thanks man! you do an amazing job!
how do you use kaom's heart in your build? it requires nearly 200 strength and i dont see how you get enough of that with rings and amulet... or at least is it just me? please answer D: it looks really cool on clip
You get enough from jewelry & passive tree
do you have updates for this build? 3.4?
do you have mercury trade if you do can you help me download it step by step and what i need like 7zip and other think
can you build ethereal knives?
In the leveling tips section You mentioned that we need a mana flask if we dont have Elreon -# Mana Cost jewellery or Thief's torment, but you didn't show any of these in the gear. I guess i might have missed something. How does the build sustain mana without any of the items mentioned earlier? Great guide btw
The one node in hybrid leach feels enough for my character following this build. Note that u need some damage before it works by itself
You get mana leech after level 50. I mention those options specifically for leveling.
Hi there, im fairly new to the PoE and i'm a bit confused about Immortal Call!?! We dont have an Endurance Charge Generator in this build, or do i miss something?
immortal call still works without charges, charges just increase the duration.
I love this build but i have 1 question: Which pantheon minor god should i take for mapping?(best one)
Whatever one makes you happiest.
Do you think you think the new revamped chieftain may be a better fit with this as 3.2 comes out?
It is quite possible! We will have to wait for final balance numbers.
sweet, i hope i can play something like this in the upcoming league. Great guide!
why woudn't you pick up the spell dodge node you would only invest 4 more nodes but that would increase you'r defenses greatly
but is there even a point in trying to farm oni-goroshi since it's lowered in 3.2?
Marvin around 12 hrs in game time to get on Xbox 1
This is really similar to my oni frostblades/molten strike slayer. I just weapon swap between the two.
A question: where do you get your damage since Oni-goroshi has so very low damage.
I answered my question. It gains 2-3 damage per level.
Can be used in 3.3 ?
Can i switch this buld to Frostblade/Morlenstrike too if i get bored of Lightningstrike?
Yup, you could do that since we take the same general scaling.
Um, is it just me or does my Oni Goroshis phys base not increase with my level?
wouldn't it be outright better to get phasing on a cwdt and pick the onslaught side, since you already have ele status immunity from the embrace ?
Adra it would be worse. Avatar of Chase is kinda a noob trap.
but the phasing one gives nothing at al
your guide is good ! please make a bow ranger build.
This build is sick it should be re-named to the clapper. I get maybe 15-20 lightning strikes a sec! And with ancestral call all I hear is clap clap clap face tanking everything. But I didn't use a kaom's heart just an ashrend buckskin tunic with a theif's torment. GG.
Why would you take Ancestral call on an AoE attack? It won't proc, right?
Lightning Strike is not AoE
Do that mean that if you hit a pack from very close, they will disappear because they take almost twice the damage?
How do you get onslaught effect in this build ? You are not even using silver flask. No nodes for onslaught also. Confused !
Take a look at the Raider ascendancy nodes that the build takes. Maybe you will figure out why.
Only thing with Onslaught on raider ascendancy is on Quartz Infusion. It is written clearly "You have Phasing while you have Onslaught". It is not "You have Onslaught while you have Phasing ". Getting Phasing is easy as it has "Gain Phasing for 3 seconds on Kill" on Quartz Infusion. EE didn't choose Rapid Assault ascendancy node as it is the only thing on raider ascendancy with "Gain Onslaught for 3 seconds on Kill". So now my question is, How can you even gain Onslaught effect with the same tree and with the same items EE has shown us ?
Its probably through abyss jewels, they can roll "X% Chance to get Onslaught on Kill"
theres abyss jewels that grant onslaught on kill. its a 2% chance or so.
But according to the POB link of EE , he is not even using any abyss jewel with that mod. That's why I was confused so much in the first place. There is literally no chance to gain onslaught according to the tree. But I can go Graceful assault to gain 10% chance to gain Onslaught for 3 seconds on Kill below the Thick Skin cluster. It will take extra 4 points though.Nice build BTW. Will try soon. Thank you EE for a nice build :)
Would you use a Day 1 Character to achieve the sword? Such as first character with items of up to lvl 7, gained from the Strand?
Can only farm Oni-Goroshi on the Twilight Strand; if you enter town after killing Hillock, you can never farm it with that toon again. Need to level up to 7 on Twilight Strand, which takes a lot of run throughs (just kill every critter every time), but worth it... I got my Oni on the 12th farming run after hitting level 7! (I rotated 3 characters so that the instance reset was never a problem)
so the oni farm technique is not nerfed? and all you have to do is level up kill everything log off wait 1 minute and relog kill everything again ?
Realize that the sword will drop after you reach level 7 however it could take many runs before it Does! Also I noticed that Hillock changes color a bit and he also is much harder to Kill! I have found 2 swords & my pal has found 5! It just takes a lot of runs
Just before Hillock drops sword he changes color a bit & is much harder to Kill
Whick Armour should i pick between Belly , inpulsa and yriel. I cant afford Koam's and Shroud Ty :3
Belly for more defense, Inpulsa for better clear (some more dps with shock up) & yriel for flat better damage. It depends on what you are lacking, and since they do not need to be linked, you can get most for a reasonable price.
Ty Im also trying to get them linked so i can have teh blade flury build on aswell i bought the yriel ! Ty for the reply and the great guide! PM : Im liking your Molten Struck Scion Alot
3.5? :)
what bandit would be best? didn't see it in the video
Help Alira
I'm new and I am lvl 82 with this build, but I don't understand the CWDT/ice golem/ancestral protector/herald. Can you elaborate why this is done before I invest in the links?
The CwDT just summons the Ice Golem since I am lazy. Ancestral Protector doesn't really require links, since we just use it for the attack speed. Herald is just Herald and there due to remaining socket use.
Engineering Eternity thanks for that, I had used a lot of currency respecting. I was trying to save a little. I need a belly or Kohms but the market is jacked up on Xbix
Tony Mancuso ws
how much time untill the league ends ? cause im kinda a slow player not sure if i can make a build at this time
Wiki says abyss league ends March 7th
incorrect it ends feb 26th per the dev post .
Yo this video got me into farming the oni-goroshi. Worst idea of my entire life! I can’t stand looking at the twilight strand anymore lol
Is this build viable as a slayer rather than raider? I love the life leeching bonuses from the slayer.
Scion also gives you a ton of jewel sockets to counteract OG's shitty attack speed.
Not Dave i'd think so. I'm playing as oni frostblades and molten strike slayer, swapping between the two and I'm pathed through ranger and kinda into trickster. This playstyle seems really similar to mine.
I am still confuse about hidden 6links...
Means i just make 6 sockets and put the gem = all 6 are automatically link?
Rambo Pang oni goroshi only drops 6l’d
Rambo Pang hidden 6links = item is always 6linked
