It really does man, this one took a brutally long time to make. Tends to be 4-7 days developing the build and getting footage. Then 3-5 full days of just recording/editing. Btw I enjoyed your volatile dead video, good work!
@@Esoro Hey, thanks for the hard work, since i am only playing SSF i only have 1 Cospri avaible, i would take for the second hand a spell dmg shield base, do you have any tips for me, what i have to change when i play it with only 1 cospri?
Thank you EE, I appreciate having your support. I really enjoy and respect your content, it helped me a lot when I was getting started. Thank you for setting such a good example for this community!
These videos really are the best I've seen. They are incredibly well researched and thoroughly presented. It gives a fantastic insight into the _way you think about your build_ so even if I'm playing a burning arrow deadeye, I can still apply the _thinking_ to vastly improve my build. Bravo my dude!
i notice one thing about his build without even opening pob: he uses flame dash over frostblink like by accident or something, everyone knows frostblink is better in channeling builds lol
I don’t even PLAY poe and your content makes me just like, “woah.” that’s how good these are. Keep it up my guy! Looking forward to whatever you got cooking up!
i only found out about POE a few month ago and all i can say is that this game is fantastic and you dont need to spend a single penny to play it (of course i happily support the developers with microtransactions)
Yo Esoro ! I havent played poe for a long time due to other game releases. But i have seen alot of build guides on youtube and your videos are like pure gold compared. You start the video right in to actions with some hero music and then slowly telling what this is about so everyone can understand with your art style. No fancy intro with some hip hop tunes.Thx for that. Also ur voice is loud and clear..no speed talker and no mumbler. Normaly i dont sub to anyone, but you spend so much time on this 1 video, so i will sub :D This will help me when i return to poe again. Overall: Super Great Videos ! 10/10 :D People who dislike your videos prolly play diablo only. Or they are snake people.
To everyone who has yet to understand how to mana sustain - there's a point in the tree called 'Mana Regeneration per Power Charge'. Once you have ~7 Power Charges, you will be able to easily sustain the mana cost.
and could u say how to stay alive at bosses? where are the defensive layers? what am i missing i build it today but im dying allot to bosses or rituals plz?
@@aimraze1551 you really need to build up evasion/dodge and use Vaal grace at key moments to try and avoid being hit. This includes using flasks to increase how slippery you are. Unfortunately, in a build like this you will get one shot if an enemy gets a lucky hit in.
@@Esoro Thank you for making these guides. I've been able to slowly grasp the mechanics of the game, and slowly have been building enough confidence to create my own build in the future.
Yeah... I'm turning my scion into this build, so far almost have everything, the only difference will be the main ascebdency items, hopefully the relative scion assassin crit ascendcy nodes will work OK with this, spent a lot to make it happen so fingers crossed
Just wanted you to know when I asked around for a good buildguide your name was everywhere and most people recommended you over other "big" youtube guides. Very well done! Thumbs up :)
Unfortunately I dropped the ball on the "so responsive" part, I apologize. I've been trying my best to keep up and respond to almost all of my comments but it's been getting tougher and tougher. Regardless I really appreciate the support and positive feedback! I tried to make my recent video an extremely flexible league starter. There will plenty more guides on the way soon for 3.9!
Esoro No worries, just keep making the awesome vids, I’ve watched them all. I think the assassin crit build is the best and most fun. I’ve watched it probably 10 times now. You have been the sole purpose I started PoE. It was a struggle in the beginning because I just started PoE this league, but you’ve help me make it to lvl 85 so far
Thank you for taking the time to produce such an informative build guide! You covered any of the questions I have had for the game in the most part by just covering this build.
This is my 3rd season playing casually. This tutorial has gotten me further than any other guide out there. The amount of clarity your video provides is amazing. I look forward to following more/all of your builds. Thank you Esoro.
You should totally make a 3.9 league starter recommendation video even if you just link to other creators builds, but more why you feel it would be good/solid build etc. Can be a longer format too like 45mins or so covering different play styles you're familiar with/know about. Maybe discuss new gems and possible builds if you can think of any. Discuss what you're considering playing for a league starter, etc. Just a thought, case you hadn't thought about it yourself. Love your builds! If they don't nerf wild strike or raider next league I think there is a high probably I'll give it a try. My build wasn't as fun as yours looked to play haha.
Thank you for sticking around and supporting the channel man. I really appreciate the feedback on this topic in particular, you've been a huge help. I'm pretty sold on the idea of wanting to make this video. Feeling set on wanting to only feature my own builds though, it seems like the right path forward. That choice would probably manifest as a new pob that I would make for each featured build. Each of which would probably contain an almost all rare/cheap unqiue gear set for the early league and an end game gear set. I think I would want to make it longer format for sure but I'm not sure exactly what the video structure would look like yet. My only major concern is whether to wait until the patch notes or make it much sooner. Would probably have to be the latter, with a launch maybe 3-5 days before the league hits. Still a lot to work out here between the content and the timing. I'd love to hear your thoughts! Hope you end up giving the wild strike build a shot next league, still some of the most fun I've had with the game! Once again thank you for originally suggesting Wild Strike man, that video had a massive impact on the growth of the channel. 4.0 is shaping up to be unbelievable, Path will be such a different beast. How are you feeling about the announcements and future of the game? To me, we'll have so much more variety in playstyle and build creation in the future. With 4-7 fully fledged active skills available at all times, its tough to comprehend just how big of a difference that will make to the gameplay. It'll basically invalidate any build videos made in the past when it launches, which is quite terrifying for a channel like mine. Regardless though, I couldn't be more excited to be producing content for such a well crafted and well supported game.
@@Esoro My pleasure, you make great content hard not to support it :) Yeah, your own builds is totally fine and honestly I would prefer it. I just knew it would be a lot of work so thought I would suggest linking to past high quality builds of others you liked. But either works for me personally. I would personally wait for patch notes, but put in a disclaimer that you're merely speculating and might have to make changes as things are discovered. The PoB for different builds with early/league start and end game gear is a great idea. I like how Ziz does his PoBs, easy to follow progression with gems (start with gems A, A moves to B type idea). And I would recommend doing an incremental tree setup too. It's easy enough to do with PoB to be honest, I do it with mine when I'm planning them out, I have two copies open, the in progress build then the other one has end game tree (no more then level 90-95 with suggestions up to 100 if it's not obvious) which I then back down backwards. That way it's easy for me to see how to progress, if I need to refund passives (mention it in the video though and try to limit that in early game when currencies are low too. The only problem is I'm not sure when PoB updates with the latest passive tree, think it's a couple days so you might have to plan out the builds on paper and bust out 2-3 recommendations. You could do the videos ahead of time discussing your planned setup though and leave the PoBs until the last minute. Just spit balling ideas here. Yeah, wild strike raider will definitely get a try next league unless they totally nerf something into the ground. Just won't be a league starter, as I prefer cheap/inexpensive/rare only gear that easily gets me to low tier red maps for that. Until I see your recommendations I'll be speed running either Bane or ED/Contagion or OOS PoE2.0 is looking amazing, the changes to gems/sockets is going to be crazy, 8-9x 6-links being possible? Crazyness. I love that you can socket auras into one gem and with a single button press activate them all. What I dislike? That it's 12-18 months away haha. Though in 3.9.0 we get to see the revamped graphics in Act I, which will be awesome as I'm getting my EVGA nVidia 2070 SUPER back next week (3rd time being sent in for RMA...) so maybe my 970 will live to see another day as a spare/server computer haha.
3.9 is my first ever league. My first character was a Witch, created as an Elementalist/Freezing Pulse (no guide followed), but shortly after reskilled to Necromancer/Zombies (a guide by a fellow youtuber). Then I found your channel. My 2nd character was a Deadeye/Ice Shot, which worked pretty fine with your recommendations. Now, this is gonna be my 3rd one, as it seems pretty fun to play and is a melee-like build, which was the next thing I wanted to try. I hope it's gonna be as easy as shown on the highlights on your video. Thanks for the great guides. Deep analysis with a lot of explaining done about every single aspect of the build. To be honest I usually switch a thing or two, but still a great basis for someone with as little knowledge of the game as myself. Great job. Keep it up!
Unfortunately the cost of this build is pretty damn high now, had a lot of fun with it in legion where most of the items were no where near their current pricing. As of this post cospri alone is 5.7ex
That's amazing to hear, really happy the videos are inspiring you to make new builds! Thank you for the continued support! I'm certainly interested in both streaming and patreon, but I have some reasonable concerns about both. Not sure when/if I should try out either of those.
yeah another great one. The best work available on TH-cam for PoE Builds. The Glad Lacerate was great but I'm still thinking Physical Melee lacks damage. This assassin CoC is impressive. I just watch this video because I do like your channel. Keep it up even if it take a lot of time and work. GG
i'm completely new to PoE and this was a huge help, had no idea what was doing or how to do it but this gave me a direction to go, thank you for the awesome vid
Damn this is just perfect, nicely round and amazing dps and guide. I hope i can do it for 3.9 because 3.8 is too laggy/stuttersome for me with a high-end computer and internet, feelsbad.
Thank you for such positive feedback man, I appreciate the support! I hope that the performance is better for you next league!

Check out PoeNullParticles! It's a safe & allowed tool that gives you a slider, "more fps" on one side and "more graphics" on the other, and when you push the slider towards more FPS, it disables particle effects more and more. It took me from 10-15 fps when there was a huge pack of mobs exploding, to a solid 60fps at all times.
@@TheReafg No problem dude! I just found it out a day ago, it has completely changed everything for me lol. I had just accepted the idea that if I play a clearspeed build I'll get shit fps. NO MORE! woohoo!!!!!
bro I am so glad that I have found you here :) awesome builds and how you describe everything, taking time and dive into ALL important facts about the build --> haven´t seen another one here creating guides like that. Since I already have found THAT MUCH currency during my time at 3.9 I will no start to build this character -> hyper exited :) you have a new fan and I will follow you wherever you go here ;)
Hi thanks for the guide, but what about the "14%+ Increased Cooldown Recovery Speed". it seem we cant have more 6.06 aps without that or we will lose dps but i dont understand well.
Hey Esoro! I wanna thank you from the bottom of my heart for your videos. This is the 2nd league for me in PoE in general. First league i reached t16 maps but nothing more. For Delirium i started with your great Lacerate/Impale Gladiator and even with barely any currency spent i could efficiently defeat a8 sirius. It was so fast and efficient for early farming that i earned so much profit to buy an headhunter (my set goal this league). After that i swapped to your CoC Ice Nova Assa because i always wanted to play such an amazing looking build! By now i have 38/40 challenges complete (only some more grind left), can defeat ALL bosses (first uber-elder kill for me! :D) with ease (after learning their mechanics that is) and can defeat simulacrum deathless so easily that i leveld from 96-97 only through those. Thanks for letting me reach and by far surpass my set goal and for the hours of fun it brought me
Hey as ive sussed this build out a fair bit and played it, the biggest problem i find is end game bosses , ya just get hit way to hard , so you have to tone the incoming damage , the 1 shots get a bit old , ill be intrested in hearing how players with the same build counteracted the issue, as im still trying to work it it
Here is my version off coc ice nova pastebin.com/59RQD4VA (empty jewel is Glorious Vanity Doryani) a great boss killer for über elder and sirius also cortex and this build has much more sustain :)
"I'll try another build next league, damn it , here I go cyclone again..." Amazing build ! I love the cyclone move and kill style. How do u rate it as league starter considering 3.9 ?
I am a Coc player, where is the CD explanation ;-; coc needs 6 attacks per second exactly without cdrs, and can get 7.5 with 14% cdrs considering the server ticks.The CD is very important for coc builds.
I'm melting T16 bosses, but there is always the chance of a one-shot, as with any melee build in this league, especially since they aren't going to fix the freeze bug until GGG is back from vacation. We currently can't freeze metamorph bosses, so they're really rippy.
@@KipacWF You're doing something wrong then, because I'm melting T16 bosses. Every melee build is struggling with the super end game bosses, if you want to farm them, then play a different build.
Awesome guide! Just one thing to note that is worth mentioning, you can actually change the colours of a corrupted item on the crafting bench, it just requires Chrome's + Vaal Orbs but it can be done! i only just learnt this myself recently too!
Hey there mate just started 3.9 with this as my character feels like really great just got into maps and I am easily able to do maps t4-t5 maps with a Widowmaker boot blade farmed a tabula in blood aqueducts I dont usually comment but your thorough explanation and detailed guide made me do it. Love the video. Love the build. ❤️ One thing I wanted to ask is why not take ambush and assasinate as it give MORE crit chance rather than increased. What are your thoughts about zealotry aura combine them with double zealo watchers eye are pretty good as well and cheaper than double hatred and the aps and cd explanation as well. Please do reply if you ever get the chance. And just thinking about tweaking the build with soul tether and acuities with glorious vanity as well. Let's see how it performs. Thanks again Esoro. I enjoyed this video a lot. ❤
My apologies for the delayed response my friend. I'm really happy to hear that you enjoyed the video and have found success running the build! Ambush and Assassinate is certainly a powerful node. However it is only helpful in specific situations and doesn't grant us enough consistent power to be better than deadly infusion. Furthermore if you can find a similar or greater dps increase from running Zealotry absolutely go for it. Especially if it proves to be much cheaper for you! How did some of your personal tweaks to the build turn out? I hope the build continued to serve you well! Thank you for supporting the channel man, very much appreciated!
Yep, i feel this at 88 with more then decent gear, have almost 5k hp and missing 29% hp from tree and one more jewel socket in tree that will come last i think. tried to get atlas to 130+ but dying non stop at bosses one tapped. i feel that i have to do like 500+ maps to get to 92/93 and get that HP boost, maybe i can survive more. was hoping i wouldn't be such a glass cannon.
What is the level requirement for this build to do t16 corrupted maps bosses, im currently 91 two cospris, carcass jack, pandemonium, elder shaper ring and command of the pit gloves, i keep getting one shot by bosses and guardians.
In his other video on starters he would recommend for 3.9, he said he would keep away from this as a starter due to no real alternatives for stuff like cospri's. Trade league day 2 they are like 2.3 ex per. Tldr there isn't , find another build to start.
I used this build as starter, my go to weapon was a high crit chance implicit dagger with damage boost on ice nova for tabula chest 6link and a caster spirit shield with spellpower stacking and high spell crit chance. It's gonna be a pain to start but unless you are very new to the game, it should work out fine. One thing to note that pretty much until you get the MH cospri at least, you gonna struggle above t6-t7 in current league because of the plain incoming damage which you negate a lot with the brutal slow and damage output. Getting the first cospri will literally skyrocket your character power, its not even describeable
Wow, I actually sat through that entire video without falling out... Very good guide and video! I'll definetely try this build at some point! Looks fun! :D
@@Esoro I actually started it even though Blight League is fading out. Put my hardearned 4 ex into two cospris and running a 5 link carcass for now. First character I have enjoyed doing Blight encounters on! Movement speed is golden! 😆😱 Found a Lioneyes Fall on the character and sold that for 1ex. Next best upgrade? Maybe i'll check prices on that amulet..
well this build is great against everything but bossing on maps is painfull, any tips to increase single target dmg bcs im struggling with +t14 bosses and metamorphs
for me it was the crtitical strike multiplier, now I'm sitting in 475% (with flasks) and bosses die on the first freeze, which is awesome. If you have every other item in the build its going to be a breeze when you escalate the multi more
@@mysticaldog8271 i would not recommend trying to run this if you are new to game. This is going to take some currency and/or knowledge to get going at first.
Hey, i wanna play this build as my second character this league.. but what im curious about is the amulet. Ive seen other guide telling me that 'The Effigon' is a mandatory item to run the build. Idk why but maybe you can tell me whats the reason behind it and why you dont take it? :D
That's just one solution to getting 100% accuracy so your hits don't miss, but you get less damage. He uses a unique jewel that gives accuracy and it frees up your amulet slot for damage/resits/life.
Two questions: 1. ~8k eHP all good and well, but still feels a bit unstable, since you can only hit your flask once ES is gone. a) Since damage doesnt seem an issue, how you feel about dropping hatred for discipline? b) Any good way to fit in some ES leech? Addendum: 1. I have swapped concentrated effect for energly leech support, don't see damage dropping, but feels more stable to me. 2. I can see a problem with hatred being the go to aura for watcher's eye. But ES gain on hit from discipline would make the build even tankier (for mapping, bossing not so much), and flask charge on critical strike for precision would basically mean your flasks are up all the time? Sorry for all my crazy thoughts, but I would really love to hear your opinion :) Okay, I have tried discipline with an 30 ES gain on hit watcher's eye and in my opinion it is a huge boost to the build. Feels much more stable and renders flasks redundant. Did uber lab @81 without using one. Now this is arguably the best mixture between damage/clear speed/survivability I have ever played. I worship your effort but also sincerely urge you to try the discipline + watcher's eye thing and let me know what you think. Like you stated: We throw out tons of different spells: cyclone, two ice novas and so on and each one generates numerous hits. So the ES gain is absolutey insane. Addendum 3. Movement speed while hitting is over the top, so how do you feel about boots with the crafted ~17 movement speed and onslaught on hit? Frees up a flask.
My apologies for the delayed response man, it can be tough to keep up at times. -Keeping Hatred would of course be the best choice offensively but if you want to go hyper defensive Discipline can certainly do some good work for you. -Picking up the energy leech is a great idea, my gut would be to leave in concentrated effect and grab the node "Soul Thief" as we are already quite close to it. However Energy Leech is a solid gem though and possibly worth having for the expanded area of effect as long as your damage holds up. -The es on hit and flask charge on critical strike mods are both fantastic defensive/utility options. I think the es gain/discipline combination is really interesting. Thank for putting in so much work play-testing and theory crafting the build! I added an additional note in the description of the video covering the combo! -The boots sound like a great choice, especially if you can free up a flask slot! Thank you for supporting the channel and providing such meaningful feedback! Great work man!
Let me say that this is easily my favorite build I've ever played in my 5 years of PoE! The play style is VERY satisfying for me personally, although it may be a tad squishy for others. Fortunately, I have accumulated enough wealth in game over the years where I could pump quite a bit of currency into top-tier items. I did have a question however. Have you ever considered swapping out the Steelskin setup for a Temp Chains/Blasphemy/Enhance set up instead? Are the mana reserve reqs simply too much to be able to get that up in addition to Hatred, Precision & Herald of Ice?
The damage on this build is insane and the speed is even more crazy, but does anyone else feel a bit too squishy? If my flasks are popped, I'm good to go but when they are not, I can die in a blink of an eye (4,600 life, 1,200 ES). Is there a life/ES leech solution that can work with this since we cast spells and life leech from magic damage isn't really a thing...or is it? Any help would be nice.
I had this problem with another cyclone build and once I had my amulet or gem anointed with immunity to corrupted blood, I was a little better off. Then my pitfalls were in Simulacrum lvl 20.... wasn't fun. At all.
Robin poe has a player driven economy, so whatever is in flavour that league will be pricey. So it’s not less or more rare, just more demand for it so players can sell it for higher.
Yeah honestly a little bit in this one lmao. I got pretty sick during the production and had to force the vocals a lot harder than I would have liked at times.
Yeah these are some ridiculously long guides but Path of Exile demands it. There's so much to cover and I try not to waste any time. Thank you for supporting the channel, I hope the build serves you really well!
For those struggling with squishyness (like me): So this build is really fun to play. I've spent about 20 ex (swords and carcass jack being 17 ex). Things just melt on screen and I've had upwards of 500mil exp per hour in delve (which for me is a lot) and around 300mil while mapping. However I noticed that it was super squishy and the one-shots were starting to grind me down even though I could get back that exp quickly. So I tried swapping some things to help out, and boy does it. The dmg is still great, but yes you will lose some. Here's what I've tried: - Use Grace instead of Hatred (you have the vaal version already, so you can swap auras any time you want). - Swap Concentrated Effect for Fortify in your 6-link. 2R, 2G, 2B isn't hard to roll. I'm levelling up a life gain on hit to try instead of fortify, not sure how this will affect. Credit for Fortify Support idea goes to another commenter here. - Play around with you flasks, the quicksilver is nice, but if you get staunching suffix somewhere else you can have another defensive flask. I've even used a Surgeon's Eternal Life Flask of Curing for Al-Hezmin since 1 stack of his poison was killing me (yes I'm bad and can't dodge everything and the surgeon's prefix allowed me to regenerate charges). You could also take Soul of Shakari pantheon for him. - Swapping Pantheons to tailor them for the fight (capture those souls!). Not tried this but perhaps some cold damage leeched as life on an amulet could also help. Hope this helps out some fellow exiles!
So I followed the guide to the letter, my resists are max, i have a lot of buffer life and energy shield, all the right equipment and only -2 chaos resist. Yet i still instantly die instantly all the time... I know other people play this game and do fine, so the only reasonable conclusion i can make is that I am doing something totally wrong... i use the flasks, i do my best to manually avoid damage (Which is a bit hard with all the effects flying around some times) but it just feels like i'm tredding water here. Any tips or ideas as to what i may be doing wrong?
@@JohnB-mo4kq anything above 10 basically. In all honestly i am very much a new player my any metric, so I'm 100% sure doing it wrong. I have never even been able to kill shaper between all 3 characters i have made none of them have really made it past tier 10 maps. I gave up on the other two builds due to balancing which made them utterly useless (and that was the build makers opinion not mine) But i don't want to give up on this build it feels right, it just is not performing good for me because of... well me i'm sure.
@@thecommenter9678 To be fair, this build requires some currently extremely expensive pieces to shine. You really need life on every piece he recommended, and even though he hasn't said it yet this league, you really need the DPS from the items in the video. Shaper/elder rings, Pandemonius amulet, level 21 gems where he listed. Basically, it's an extremely expensive build, that relies a lot on extremely high DPS granted by those items. You also need to be around level 90 to have all the life nodes and DPS nodes.
@@thecommenter9678 Make sure to use the inspiration support instead of hypothermia. For the short term I replaced Ice bite with life leech support. Its a dps nerf but a huge sustain buff. The life leech support lets you kill morphs until you have the ammy with anointment. The Heart of ice anointment really helped with sustain and i switched back to ice bite that is huge dps. I have only a 5 linked carcas jack ( dropped concentrated until 6 link) and i think its smart to have that 6L as last expenditure. Im running a 5 link carcass 2 cospri pandemonius ammy mark of the shaper ring and just a rando elder ring with a couple resists a starkonjas helm rest of gear is resist and evasion stat stick that i have found on the way and i plow T16 maps but still have to dodge metamorph and map boss one shot attacks. 3.9k life -60 chaos resists so im still a work in progress. ******use the frozen trail jewel until you are super high end damage; Im still using it now because the crit multiplier jewels are my last concern. I have 900 mana but only 75 usable I lvled precision as far as i can as long as i have between 70 and 100 mana. I only use 3 mana but if I don't read the maps and run one thats no Regen I want room for the hybrid pot i switch to in place of my divine just on those maps. Also having blind enemy on hit is a huge help to keep you alive. When I got the pandemonius and before the anointment I saw a huge jump in me being able to avoid bosses and metamorphs damage. I believe it was because of the blind on hit.
John B and Flatlandmike Believe it or not i have nearly all the suggested gear including a 6 link jack, I am only missing cinderswollow and the recommended jewels, i did see some 60% critical chance during flask effects on the PoB (which is updated compared to the video) which i also don't have. But I'm briming the rim of 4000HP and around 450ES over 100 usable mana, -2% chaos and I'm level 88 but i simply get deleted in one attack all the time and have literally no idea WHAT is killing me, sometimes it's mobs. but more often it's bosses. This is the furthest i have ever gotten in this game and only my third character. It felt like the bosses HP got a crazy buff though... so I'm happy you confirmed that. It may also be important to note i play Coop with a friend.... which I have been told by some only increases loot and others that tell me it makes them hit harder? I can't get a straight answer on that.
Always loved CoC Builds, but i think i'll never be able to afford one. I'm actually impressed with the quality of your content, the details, it must be time consuming. Congratz on the work man, it's fucking amasing.
I had this issue a few leagues ago, try to fit in a Blind support into your chest 6link until you get Pandemonius. I played it as a league starter and once I got blind and ~3k life, I could play it without an issue (even without cospri)
Loving the build, and I love your guides. You really deserve more notoriety. I'm curious how this build will handle 3.9 late game, with the massive hits some bosses are dishing out. I've been hearing people with 8-10k life are getting one-shot. Either way, it's super fun so far. Thanks man, keep up the good work. You really should stream with your ability to make content exciting.
One question I forgot to ask: With Vaal Ice Nova, mine definitely isn't spreading like yours did in the video on Legion packs. I'm assuming it scales off area effect?
This video was amazing, so much effort invested in making it, cheers mate, i hope its not too late in the league for me to do this, but ill go for it now :)
@@happyday7689 Somehow its possible, but not a starter friendly build, i managed to get all the gear in few days, just did a normal coc with daggers, until i could afford cospris, i got very lucky and dropped Halcyon also (costs the same as cospris) But it will take long time for ppl to start fully enjoy the build cause of price.
Added a medium cluster jewel with Blast-Freeze(20% cold dmg and Freezes all within 12m on freeze) and Cold-Blooded K(heals 2% max hp per kill). which takes 6 skill points to fill. The large cluster with these cost 1ex while the medium was only 10 chaos. It provides extrem survivability increase.
You have a link to your POB? I'm interested in seeing your points spent, as I've been curious on using a cluster jewel as well. But then again, have to sacrifice points from elsewhere.
Damn Esoro, why I didn't checked this build before, looks really bad ass. I'm using you Cyc Max Block Gladiator build and im having a blast, thanks for sharing such good builds :))
This build looks like a tonne of fun. I like that there are quite a few places where you can flex and experiment with different options, like the jewel sockets. To me, a good build is one where you can develop it and continually make small tweaks and improvements all the time.
Hope you end up giving the build a shot! I tried to include as many alternatives, budget and high end options as possible. I really want to help people find a unique way to run the build that suits them best!
What abyssal jewel do you recommend for the belt? I did not see that recommendation anywhere in the video, maybe I missed it. Amazing build guide and the most fun I've had in this game playing this build. Thanks man!
That's incredible to hear man, I'm really happy the build did some good work for you! Thank you for supporting the channel, plenty more guides on the way soon for 3.9!
An hour long build guide must take a ton of time to make, I can only imagine recording the audio and editing that much, gj
It really does man, this one took a brutally long time to make. Tends to be 4-7 days developing the build and getting footage. Then 3-5 full days of just recording/editing.
Btw I enjoyed your volatile dead video, good work!
@@Esoro Yeah that's quite a process, but I bet rendering the final result feels amazing ;-)
Thanks a lot, appreciate it!

@@Esoro Hey, thanks for the hard work, since i am only playing SSF i only have 1 Cospri avaible, i would take for the second hand a spell dmg shield base, do you have any tips for me, what i have to change when i play it with only 1 cospri?
@@Esoro This video raised the price of cospri's malice by 300% and now it's hard to get it. :(
@@Esoro great now i need start new build :P 👌
I like this :)
Thank you EE, I appreciate having your support. I really enjoy and respect your content, it helped me a lot when I was getting started. Thank you for setting such a good example for this community!
When a master recognizes his student and welcomes him to masterhood. That's some spiritual shit...
These videos really are the best I've seen. They are incredibly well researched and thoroughly presented. It gives a fantastic insight into the _way you think about your build_ so even if I'm playing a burning arrow deadeye, I can still apply the _thinking_ to vastly improve my build. Bravo my dude!
i notice one thing about his build without even opening pob: he uses flame dash over frostblink like by accident or something, everyone knows frostblink is better in channeling builds lol
I don’t even PLAY poe and your content makes me just like, “woah.” that’s how good these are. Keep it up my guy! Looking forward to whatever you got cooking up!
Thank you for supporting the channel regardless man, I really appreciate that! New build guide is out in a couple days.
i only found out about POE a few month ago and all i can say is that this game is fantastic and you dont need to spend a single penny to play it (of course i happily support the developers with microtransactions)
Yo Esoro !
I havent played poe for a long time due to other game releases. But i have seen alot of build guides on youtube and your videos are like pure gold compared.
You start the video right in to actions with some hero music and then slowly telling what this is about so everyone can understand with your art style.
No fancy intro with some hip hop tunes.Thx for that.
Also ur voice is loud and clear..no speed talker and no mumbler.
Normaly i dont sub to anyone, but you spend so much time on this 1 video, so i will sub :D
This will help me when i return to poe again.
Overall: Super Great Videos ! 10/10 :D
People who dislike your videos prolly play diablo only. Or they are snake people.
I agree this channel is like guide for idiots 101. channel so recommended!
im new to poe too :) subscribed and liked! :D
Path of exile vs Diablo 4
To everyone who has yet to understand how to mana sustain - there's a point in the tree called 'Mana Regeneration per Power Charge'.
Once you have ~7 Power Charges, you will be able to easily sustain the mana cost.
and could u say how to stay alive at bosses? where are the defensive layers? what am i missing i build it today but im dying allot to bosses or rituals plz?
@@aimraze1551 you really need to build up evasion/dodge and use Vaal grace at key moments to try and avoid being hit. This includes using flasks to increase how slippery you are.
Unfortunately, in a build like this you will get one shot if an enemy gets a lucky hit in.
I'm not going to restart, I'm not going to to restart, I'm not going t.......
Yeah.... I'm restarting......
That's what I like to hear lol. Thanks for supporting the videos man!
@@Esoro Thank you for making these guides. I've been able to slowly grasp the mechanics of the game, and slowly have been building enough confidence to create my own build in the future.
Same here... I've already made two Esoro builds.... and they're in my top 5 builds in 1.5k hours played.
Yeah... I'm turning my scion into this build, so far almost have everything, the only difference will be the main ascebdency items, hopefully the relative scion assassin crit ascendcy nodes will work OK with this, spent a lot to make it happen so fingers crossed
thank god i already had an assasin made that is no wunused , now i can re-use him :)
Dude wtf are you doing, your builds are more than amazing!!! The guides are explained in such detail! just wow!
Thank you for such positive feedback man, I really do appreciate that! Glad you've been enjoying the guides so far.
Of all the builds I wish you'd update this one. Once I got this going it was one of the best builds I've ever played.
I would like this one to be updated for ultimatum it was my best build i made too its good
Just wanted you to know when I asked around for a good buildguide your name was everywhere and most people recommended you over other "big" youtube guides.
Very well done! Thumbs up :)
I would definitely love to see more vids. Possibly a starter guide to PoE, you're so informative and responsive.
Unfortunately I dropped the ball on the "so responsive" part, I apologize. I've been trying my best to keep up and respond to almost all of my comments but it's been getting tougher and tougher. Regardless I really appreciate the support and positive feedback! I tried to make my recent video an extremely flexible league starter. There will plenty more guides on the way soon for 3.9!
Esoro No worries, just keep making the awesome vids, I’ve watched them all. I think the assassin crit build is the best and most fun. I’ve watched it probably 10 times now. You have been the sole purpose I started PoE. It was a struggle in the beginning because I just started PoE this league, but you’ve help me make it to lvl 85 so far
You are the best! Most detailed videos and they really helping me to learn a lot of the mechanics behind poe!
That's incredible to hear man, really happy the videos have been so helpful. Thank you for the continued support!
with every video you release, my hairline gradually comes back...
never stop, please.
Don't know how I'm managing that, but I'll work hard to restore every last strand for you lol
@@Esoro 😂
Bro pls. I felt that
Thank you for taking the time to produce such an informative build guide! You covered any of the questions I have had for the game in the most part by just covering this build.
This is my 3rd season playing casually. This tutorial has gotten me further than any other guide out there. The amount of clarity your video provides is amazing. I look forward to following more/all of your builds. Thank you Esoro.
You should totally make a 3.9 league starter recommendation video even if you just link to other creators builds, but more why you feel it would be good/solid build etc. Can be a longer format too like 45mins or so covering different play styles you're familiar with/know about. Maybe discuss new gems and possible builds if you can think of any. Discuss what you're considering playing for a league starter, etc. Just a thought, case you hadn't thought about it yourself. Love your builds! If they don't nerf wild strike or raider next league I think there is a high probably I'll give it a try. My build wasn't as fun as yours looked to play haha.
Thank you for sticking around and supporting the channel man. I really appreciate the feedback on this topic in particular, you've been a huge help.
I'm pretty sold on the idea of wanting to make this video. Feeling set on wanting to only feature my own builds though, it seems like the right path forward. That choice would probably manifest as a new pob that I would make for each featured build. Each of which would probably contain an almost all rare/cheap unqiue gear set for the early league and an end game gear set. I think I would want to make it longer format for sure but I'm not sure exactly what the video structure would look like yet. My only major concern is whether to wait until the patch notes or make it much sooner. Would probably have to be the latter, with a launch maybe 3-5 days before the league hits. Still a lot to work out here between the content and the timing. I'd love to hear your thoughts!
Hope you end up giving the wild strike build a shot next league, still some of the most fun I've had with the game! Once again thank you for originally suggesting Wild Strike man, that video had a massive impact on the growth of the channel.
4.0 is shaping up to be unbelievable, Path will be such a different beast. How are you feeling about the announcements and future of the game? To me, we'll have so much more variety in playstyle and build creation in the future. With 4-7 fully fledged active skills available at all times, its tough to comprehend just how big of a difference that will make to the gameplay. It'll basically invalidate any build videos made in the past when it launches, which is quite terrifying for a channel like mine. Regardless though, I couldn't be more excited to be producing content for such a well crafted and well supported game.
@@Esoro My pleasure, you make great content hard not to support it :)
Yeah, your own builds is totally fine and honestly I would prefer it. I just knew it would be a lot of work so thought I would suggest linking to past high quality builds of others you liked. But either works for me personally. I would personally wait for patch notes, but put in a disclaimer that you're merely speculating and might have to make changes as things are discovered. The PoB for different builds with early/league start and end game gear is a great idea. I like how Ziz does his PoBs, easy to follow progression with gems (start with gems A, A moves to B type idea). And I would recommend doing an incremental tree setup too. It's easy enough to do with PoB to be honest, I do it with mine when I'm planning them out, I have two copies open, the in progress build then the other one has end game tree (no more then level 90-95 with suggestions up to 100 if it's not obvious) which I then back down backwards. That way it's easy for me to see how to progress, if I need to refund passives (mention it in the video though and try to limit that in early game when currencies are low too. The only problem is I'm not sure when PoB updates with the latest passive tree, think it's a couple days so you might have to plan out the builds on paper and bust out 2-3 recommendations. You could do the videos ahead of time discussing your planned setup though and leave the PoBs until the last minute. Just spit balling ideas here.
Yeah, wild strike raider will definitely get a try next league unless they totally nerf something into the ground. Just won't be a league starter, as I prefer cheap/inexpensive/rare only gear that easily gets me to low tier red maps for that. Until I see your recommendations I'll be speed running either Bane or ED/Contagion or OOS
PoE2.0 is looking amazing, the changes to gems/sockets is going to be crazy, 8-9x 6-links being possible? Crazyness. I love that you can socket auras into one gem and with a single button press activate them all. What I dislike? That it's 12-18 months away haha. Though in 3.9.0 we get to see the revamped graphics in Act I, which will be awesome as I'm getting my EVGA nVidia 2070 SUPER back next week (3rd time being sent in for RMA...) so maybe my 970 will live to see another day as a spare/server computer haha.
fking hell dude this such a well made guide. Just found my main build for 3.9 thanks and keep up the good work.
This is my go to channel for poe builds
Nice build Esoro! You are making crazy builds content at the speed of light! I appreciate your detailed videos.
3.9 is my first ever league. My first character was a Witch, created as an Elementalist/Freezing Pulse (no guide followed), but shortly after reskilled to Necromancer/Zombies (a guide by a fellow youtuber). Then I found your channel. My 2nd character was a Deadeye/Ice Shot, which worked pretty fine with your recommendations. Now, this is gonna be my 3rd one, as it seems pretty fun to play and is a melee-like build, which was the next thing I wanted to try. I hope it's gonna be as easy as shown on the highlights on your video. Thanks for the great guides. Deep analysis with a lot of explaining done about every single aspect of the build. To be honest I usually switch a thing or two, but still a great basis for someone with as little knowledge of the game as myself. Great job. Keep it up!
Unfortunately the cost of this build is pretty damn high now, had a lot of fun with it in legion where most of the items were no where near their current pricing. As of this post cospri alone is 5.7ex
what this guy said
@@iulianburlacu What both these fellas said.
Cospri always was expensive, its an enabler for so many builds.
Already had every thing this build required :D
@@BeyondXeon95 LOL you just happened to have 2 cospris malice lying around your stash tab collecting dust? Hahaha
Man, I can't resist but make another character everytime I see your build videos, it's just soooo good...
Also, you should do a patreon!
That's amazing to hear, really happy the videos are inspiring you to make new builds! Thank you for the continued support!
I'm certainly interested in both streaming and patreon, but I have some reasonable concerns about both. Not sure when/if I should try out either of those.
yeah another great one. The best work available on TH-cam for PoE Builds. The Glad Lacerate was great but I'm still thinking Physical Melee lacks damage. This assassin CoC is impressive. I just watch this video because I do like your channel. Keep it up even if it take a lot of time and work. GG
Thank you man! I appreciate the kind feedback, thank you for the continued support. More content on the way soon!
@@Esoro GREAT ! I thought to send you a FrostBlade build but I'm too afraid price explode after this xD.
Playing this build now in heist, ive never played cyclone before but i am in love with this playstyle. Thanks for making this and keeping it updated.
i'm completely new to PoE and this was a huge help, had no idea what was doing or how to do it but this gave me a direction to go, thank you for the awesome vid
Of course man, thank you for watching. I'm really happy the video helped you get started!
Can we get like an updated tested on 3.9 bossing version of the build
Noooo, i was gonna build this one this week, rip prices AGAIN
Quick! Buy it all!
lucky me I started the league with this one lol

Hey esoro can't wait to see your builds in 3.9 and poe 2 just saw exilecon its gonna be amazing
Your guides are the best........ so complex yet easy to understand!
I just finished my lacerate and lightning wild strike builds last week. Welp, here we go again
Thank you for giving the builds a shot man! I appreciate the continued support!
3 seconds in and my blood has solidified
Oh god, that was quick.
Damn this is just perfect, nicely round and amazing dps and guide. I hope i can do it for 3.9 because 3.8 is too laggy/stuttersome for me with a high-end computer and internet, feelsbad.
Thank you for such positive feedback man, I appreciate the support! I hope that the performance is better for you next league!
Check out PoeNullParticles! It's a safe & allowed tool that gives you a slider, "more fps" on one side and "more graphics" on the other, and when you push the slider towards more FPS, it disables particle effects more and more. It took me from 10-15 fps when there was a huge pack of mobs exploding, to a solid 60fps at all times.
@ Will definitely do so, thanks.
@@TheReafg No problem dude! I just found it out a day ago, it has completely changed everything for me lol. I had just accepted the idea that if I play a clearspeed build I'll get shit fps. NO MORE! woohoo!!!!!
Your videos are actually fantastic, I’m fairly new to POE and I’ve learned so much just from these guides - looking forward to more!
bro I am so glad that I have found you here :) awesome builds and how you describe everything, taking time and dive into ALL important facts about the build --> haven´t seen another one here creating guides like that. Since I already have found THAT MUCH currency during my time at 3.9 I will no start to build this character -> hyper exited :) you have a new fan and I will follow you wherever you go here ;)
Hi thanks for the guide, but what about the "14%+ Increased Cooldown Recovery Speed". it seem we cant have more 6.06 aps without that or we will lose dps but i dont understand well.
Your voice is so soothing... it's like listening to audible but for poe
Thank you man, I appreciate that a lot!
LOL this build is going to be INSANE with POE 4.0 and the multiple 6 links.
first thing i was thinkig lol, basically any 1 hander with socketed gems are supported By x will go way up in power
Super good Guide! Nice pace and perfectly structured. Great work!
Hey Esoro! I wanna thank you from the bottom of my heart for your videos. This is the 2nd league for me in PoE in general. First league i reached t16 maps but nothing more. For Delirium i started with your great Lacerate/Impale Gladiator and even with barely any currency spent i could efficiently defeat a8 sirius. It was so fast and efficient for early farming that i earned so much profit to buy an headhunter (my set goal this league). After that i swapped to your CoC Ice Nova Assa because i always wanted to play such an amazing looking build! By now i have 38/40 challenges complete (only some more grind left), can defeat ALL bosses (first uber-elder kill for me! :D) with ease (after learning their mechanics that is) and can defeat simulacrum deathless so easily that i leveld from 96-97 only through those. Thanks for letting me reach and by far surpass my set goal and for the hours of fun it brought me
Hey as ive sussed this build out a fair bit and played it, the biggest problem i find is end game bosses , ya just get hit way to hard , so you have to tone the incoming damage , the 1 shots get a bit old , ill be intrested in hearing how players with the same build counteracted the issue, as im still trying to work it it
Here is my version off coc ice nova pastebin.com/59RQD4VA (empty jewel is Glorious Vanity Doryani) a great boss killer for über elder and sirius also cortex and this build has much more sustain :)
Still at the intro, already know this is good shit
Thank you, appreciate that!
The weapons and the amulet will cost you 20 exalted with eyes closed and this is just for a start.
yes
The build that btw i made it in the first week of the league cost me 50 exo
You sir are a godsend. These videos are so well made and informative. Really appreciate the work; keep it up!
This is how a build should be explained, keep doing that great work, I love your videos! Greetings from Argentina
I appreciate that man, thank you for supporting the channel. More content on the way soon!
"I'll try another build next league, damn it , here I go cyclone again..."
Amazing build ! I love the cyclone move and kill style.
How do u rate it as league starter considering 3.9 ?
Im running this aswell 3.9. seems awesome!
@@maxkinder1951 Me too, but I´m considering how hard it is to gear up at early levels/low currency. =(
lol im doing the same, Said to myself lets change it up a little, have a look at some different builds.... ahem. here I am again going Cyclone l0l
@Pit Palace How do you feel this build does/will do in straight single target encounters? Considering we'll be doing much more bossing in 3.9
just be aware that the swords the first week of a league are well over a ex so only start with this build if you know how to make money early game
I am a Coc player, where is the CD explanation ;-; coc needs 6 attacks per second exactly without cdrs, and can get 7.5 with 14% cdrs considering the server ticks.The CD is very important for coc builds.
so what happen if you have more than that? is is big dps loss?
yo, love the build - how does single target dps works for this build? Cleasr spead is cool, but bosses are tougher now. Thanks for answer
Not good.
I'm melting T16 bosses, but there is always the chance of a one-shot, as with any melee build in this league, especially since they aren't going to fix the freeze bug until GGG is back from vacation. We currently can't freeze metamorph bosses, so they're really rippy.
@@KipacWF You're doing something wrong then, because I'm melting T16 bosses. Every melee build is struggling with the super end game bosses, if you want to farm them, then play a different build.
@@JohnB-mo4kq Every bow build struggle with end game bosses / metamorphs, too. So, what's left?.. Casters?
make sure you are using the flasks suggested and have them up for bosses/metamorphs. It's easy to just hit a portal and refresh them
Awesome guide! Just one thing to note that is worth mentioning, you can actually change the colours of a corrupted item on the crafting bench, it just requires Chrome's + Vaal Orbs but it can be done! i only just learnt this myself recently too!
Another amazing video. Super high quality. Can't praise your effort enough man.
I appreciate that man, it's really encouraging to hear such positive feedback. Thank you so much for continuing to support the channel!
Hey there mate just started 3.9 with this as my character feels like really great just got into maps and I am easily able to do maps t4-t5 maps with a Widowmaker boot blade farmed a tabula in blood aqueducts I dont usually comment but your thorough explanation and detailed guide made me do it. Love the video. Love the build. ❤️ One thing I wanted to ask is why not take ambush and assasinate as it give MORE crit chance rather than increased. What are your thoughts about zealotry aura combine them with double zealo watchers eye are pretty good as well and cheaper than double hatred and the aps and cd explanation as well. Please do reply if you ever get the chance. And just thinking about tweaking the build with soul tether and acuities with glorious vanity as well. Let's see how it performs. Thanks again Esoro. I enjoyed this video a lot. ❤
Forever aloneq
My apologies for the delayed response my friend. I'm really happy to hear that you enjoyed the video and have found success running the build! Ambush and Assassinate is certainly a powerful node. However it is only helpful in specific situations and doesn't grant us enough consistent power to be better than deadly infusion. Furthermore if you can find a similar or greater dps increase from running Zealotry absolutely go for it. Especially if it proves to be much cheaper for you! How did some of your personal tweaks to the build turn out? I hope the build continued to serve you well! Thank you for supporting the channel man, very much appreciated!
This build is so squishy...almost playing like a glass cannon, packs get melted but bosses often 1 shot
i agree with you, ive put 50+ex into this and cant even kill the boss fast enough
Yep, i feel this at 88 with more then decent gear, have almost 5k hp and missing 29% hp from tree and one more jewel socket in tree that will come last i think. tried to get atlas to 130+ but dying non stop at bosses one tapped. i feel that i have to do like 500+ maps to get to 92/93 and get that HP boost, maybe i can survive more. was hoping i wouldn't be such a glass cannon.
Hmmm thought I was done. looks like I' starting a new Build. LOL
Perfect, that sounds good to me. Thanks for supporting the videos man!
@@Esoro No problems man. Your videos rock. Keep it up.
Great guide ... I quickly subbed. Looking forward to seeing whats next and catching up on your past videos.
I know no other youtuber that can make 50+ minute videos that i'll sit through. Keep up the great work dude.
What is the level requirement for this build to do t16 corrupted maps bosses, im currently 91 two cospris, carcass jack, pandemonium, elder shaper ring and command of the pit gloves, i keep getting one shot by bosses and guardians.
upupupupupupupup
I am having the same issue... one shotted by bosses.. instagibbed
Not sure what the problem is? Maybe low armour?
also curious
@@jebaniutki5150 i started to use fortify in my cyclone 6 link to increase surv and it works a lot better now (dropped hypothermia)
Is there a substitute for the cospri's malice that you would recommend making this viable for a league starter?
In his other video on starters he would recommend for 3.9, he said he would keep away from this as a starter due to no real alternatives for stuff like cospri's. Trade league day 2 they are like 2.3 ex per.
Tldr there isn't , find another build to start.
I used this build as starter, my go to weapon was a high crit chance implicit dagger with damage boost on ice nova for tabula chest 6link and a caster spirit shield with spellpower stacking and high spell crit chance. It's gonna be a pain to start but unless you are very new to the game, it should work out fine. One thing to note that pretty much until you get the MH cospri at least, you gonna struggle above t6-t7 in current league because of the plain incoming damage which you negate a lot with the brutal slow and damage output. Getting the first cospri will literally skyrocket your character power, its not even describeable
@@ZeramosX they are 4.5 exalted now
@Rado nah it can drop bro, i got it from a t6 metamorph boss. keep at it !
The Tempered Mind Cobalt Jewel has changed in Heist league, from accuracy to mana regen. Do I still use this jewel ?
Great looking build BTW.
Cheers
no you should not
Grats on the channel doing so well. Your builds are excellent!
I appreciate that man, thank you for the support! The viewership has been crazy to me, it’s beyond what I ever expected to achieve.

@@Esoro I actually started it even though Blight League is fading out. Put my hardearned 4 ex into two cospris and running a 5 link carcass for now. First character I have enjoyed doing Blight encounters on! Movement speed is golden! 😆😱 Found a Lioneyes Fall on the character and sold that for 1ex. Next best upgrade? Maybe i'll check prices on that amulet..
is the build still alive or no longer relevant in the new league? If it is viable, then some changes are required?
it's viable still
well this build is great against everything but bossing on maps is painfull, any tips to increase single target dmg bcs im struggling with +t14 bosses and metamorphs
for me it was the crtitical strike multiplier, now I'm sitting in 475% (with flasks) and bosses die on the first freeze, which is awesome. If you have every other item in the build its going to be a breeze when you escalate the multi more
Are you using flasks? 80% of the damage comes from flasks on this build.
I m missing cortex one that would give me the most dps but its to expensive for me right now

First timer, top quality stuff! U got yourself a new sub! Keep it up
Much appreciated man, glad you stumbled onto the channel! Plenty more guides on the way soon for 3.9!
Hey, i wanna play this build as my second character this league.. but what im curious about is the amulet. Ive seen other guide telling me that 'The Effigon' is a mandatory item to run the build. Idk why but maybe you can tell me whats the reason behind it and why you dont take it? :D
That's just one solution to getting 100% accuracy so your hits don't miss, but you get less damage. He uses a unique jewel that gives accuracy and it frees up your amulet slot for damage/resits/life.
Two questions:
1. ~8k eHP all good and well, but still feels a bit unstable, since you can only hit your flask once ES is gone.
a) Since damage doesnt seem an issue, how you feel about dropping hatred for discipline?
b) Any good way to fit in some ES leech?
Addendum: 1. I have swapped concentrated effect for energly leech support, don't see damage dropping, but feels more stable to me. 2. I can see a problem with hatred being the go to aura for watcher's eye. But ES gain on hit from discipline would make the build even tankier (for mapping, bossing not so much), and flask charge on critical strike for precision would basically mean your flasks are up all the time? Sorry for all my crazy thoughts, but I would really love to hear your opinion :)
Okay, I have tried discipline with an 30 ES gain on hit watcher's eye and in my opinion it is a huge boost to the build. Feels much more stable and renders flasks redundant. Did uber lab @81 without using one. Now this is arguably the best mixture between damage/clear speed/survivability I have ever played. I worship your effort but also sincerely urge you to try the discipline + watcher's eye thing and let me know what you think.
Like you stated: We throw out tons of different spells: cyclone, two ice novas and so on and each one generates numerous hits. So the ES gain is absolutey insane.
Addendum 3. Movement speed while hitting is over the top, so how do you feel about boots with the crafted ~17 movement speed and onslaught on hit? Frees up a flask.
My apologies for the delayed response man, it can be tough to keep up at times.
-Keeping Hatred would of course be the best choice offensively but if you want to go hyper defensive Discipline can certainly do some good work for you.
-Picking up the energy leech is a great idea, my gut would be to leave in concentrated effect and grab the node "Soul Thief" as we are already quite close to it. However Energy Leech is a solid gem though and possibly worth having for the expanded area of effect as long as your damage holds up.
-The es on hit and flask charge on critical strike mods are both fantastic defensive/utility options. I think the es gain/discipline combination is really interesting. Thank for putting in so much work play-testing and theory crafting the build! I added an additional note in the description of the video covering the combo!
-The boots sound like a great choice, especially if you can free up a flask slot!
Thank you for supporting the channel and providing such meaningful feedback! Great work man!
Let me say that this is easily my favorite build I've ever played in my 5 years of PoE! The play style is VERY satisfying for me personally, although it may be a tad squishy for others. Fortunately, I have accumulated enough wealth in game over the years where I could pump quite a bit of currency into top-tier items.
I did have a question however. Have you ever considered swapping out the Steelskin setup for a Temp Chains/Blasphemy/Enhance set up instead? Are the mana reserve reqs simply too much to be able to get that up in addition to Hatred, Precision & Herald of Ice?
you won't be able to run this along with hatred and hoi, even with lvl 4 enlighten on all of the auras
i love your voice and the way you present these builds, really good stuff, thank you
you deserve so many more subs my bro! solid work as always!
The damage on this build is insane and the speed is even more crazy, but does anyone else feel a bit too squishy? If my flasks are popped, I'm good to go but when they are not, I can die in a blink of an eye (4,600 life, 1,200 ES). Is there a life/ES leech solution that can work with this since we cast spells and life leech from magic damage isn't really a thing...or is it? Any help would be nice.
I had this problem with another cyclone build and once I had my amulet or gem anointed with immunity to corrupted blood, I was a little better off. Then my pitfalls were in Simulacrum lvl 20.... wasn't fun. At all.
wanted to start this build, but cospri's are like 5ex and we need two :(
Build can be done without Cospri's but is just stronger with. I'ts a nice goal to work towards ! :D
yeah how come they're now 6 ex when last league they were around 100c? Did ggg make them more rare?
Robin poe has a player driven economy, so whatever is in flavour that league will be pricey. So it’s not less or more rare, just more demand for it so players can sell it for higher.
Esoro, when using this build in 3.9 for blighted maps, what ring annoints/towers would you recommend?
Meteor is King
Thanks for the video and thank you for talking and explaining everything I'm new to the game and it's overwhelming great upload
sick build guides dude, some of the best I have found!
C'mon man, i haven't even finished spending for the next build i was trying to make lol
lmao sorry dude, take your time this one will be here for you later. Thank you for trying out the builds!
oh look, he's using his "Batman Voice" - Michaelangelo
Yeah honestly a little bit in this one lmao. I got pretty sick during the production and had to force the vocals a lot harder than I would have liked at times.
Cospris are going for 5 ex each T_T on Morph league
I was lucky enough to drop one but there's no way Im getting another one
Well... one hour long build guide... One freaking hour, yet, the best in-depth explained build i`ve ever seen... rerolling aswell xD
Yeah these are some ridiculously long guides but Path of Exile demands it. There's so much to cover and I try not to waste any time. Thank you for supporting the channel, I hope the build serves you really well!
For those struggling with squishyness (like me):
So this build is really fun to play. I've spent about 20 ex (swords and carcass jack being 17 ex). Things just melt on screen and I've had upwards of 500mil exp per hour in delve (which for me is a lot) and around 300mil while mapping. However I noticed that it was super squishy and the one-shots were starting to grind me down even though I could get back that exp quickly. So I tried swapping some things to help out, and boy does it. The dmg is still great, but yes you will lose some. Here's what I've tried:
- Use Grace instead of Hatred (you have the vaal version already, so you can swap auras any time you want).
- Swap Concentrated Effect for Fortify in your 6-link. 2R, 2G, 2B isn't hard to roll. I'm levelling up a life gain on hit to try instead of fortify, not sure how this will affect. Credit for Fortify Support idea goes to another commenter here.
- Play around with you flasks, the quicksilver is nice, but if you get staunching suffix somewhere else you can have another defensive flask. I've even used a Surgeon's Eternal Life Flask of Curing for Al-Hezmin since 1 stack of his poison was killing me (yes I'm bad and can't dodge everything and the surgeon's prefix allowed me to regenerate charges). You could also take Soul of Shakari pantheon for him.
- Swapping Pantheons to tailor them for the fight (capture those souls!).
Not tried this but perhaps some cold damage leeched as life on an amulet could also help.
Hope this helps out some fellow exiles!
Agreed with the cold damage leach. I'm running Doryani's unique belt and noticed even a little can help a lot.
So I followed the guide to the letter, my resists are max, i have a lot of buffer life and energy shield, all the right equipment and only -2 chaos resist.
Yet i still instantly die instantly all the time... I know other people play this game and do fine, so the only reasonable conclusion i can make is that I am doing something totally wrong... i use the flasks, i do my best to manually avoid damage (Which is a bit hard with all the effects flying around some times) but it just feels like i'm tredding water here. Any tips or ideas as to what i may be doing wrong?
What tier maps are you getting one-shot? A lot of the defense of this build comes from raw DPS, chain freezing and steelskin.
@@JohnB-mo4kq anything above 10 basically. In all honestly i am very much a new player my any metric, so I'm 100% sure doing it wrong.
I have never even been able to kill shaper between all 3 characters i have made none of them have really made it past tier 10 maps.
I gave up on the other two builds due to balancing which made them utterly useless (and that was the build makers opinion not mine)
But i don't want to give up on this build it feels right, it just is not performing good for me because of... well me i'm sure.
@@thecommenter9678 To be fair, this build requires some currently extremely expensive pieces to shine. You really need life on every piece he recommended, and even though he hasn't said it yet this league, you really need the DPS from the items in the video. Shaper/elder rings, Pandemonius amulet, level 21 gems where he listed. Basically, it's an extremely expensive build, that relies a lot on extremely high DPS granted by those items. You also need to be around level 90 to have all the life nodes and DPS nodes.
@@thecommenter9678 Make sure to use the inspiration support instead of hypothermia. For the short term I replaced Ice bite with life leech support. Its a dps nerf but a huge sustain buff. The life leech support lets you kill morphs until you have the ammy with anointment. The Heart of ice anointment really helped with sustain and i switched back to ice bite that is huge dps. I have only a 5 linked carcas jack ( dropped concentrated until 6 link) and i think its smart to have that 6L as last expenditure. Im running a 5 link carcass 2 cospri pandemonius ammy mark of the shaper ring and just a rando elder ring with a couple resists a starkonjas helm rest of gear is resist and evasion stat stick that i have found on the way and i plow T16 maps but still have to dodge metamorph and map boss one shot attacks. 3.9k life -60 chaos resists so im still a work in progress. ******use the frozen trail jewel until you are super high end damage; Im still using it now because the crit multiplier jewels are my last concern.
I have 900 mana but only 75 usable I lvled precision as far as i can as long as i have between 70 and 100 mana. I only use 3 mana but if I don't read the maps and run one thats no Regen I want room for the hybrid pot i switch to in place of my divine just on those maps.
Also having blind enemy on hit is a huge help to keep you alive. When I got the pandemonius and before the anointment I saw a huge jump in me being able to avoid bosses and metamorphs damage. I believe it was because of the blind on hit.
John B and Flatlandmike Believe it or not i have nearly all the suggested gear including a 6 link jack, I am only missing cinderswollow and the recommended jewels, i did see some 60% critical chance during flask effects on the PoB (which is updated compared to the video) which i also don't have. But I'm briming the rim of 4000HP and around 450ES over 100 usable mana, -2% chaos and I'm level 88 but i simply get deleted in one attack all the time and have literally no idea WHAT is killing me, sometimes it's mobs. but more often it's bosses. This is the furthest i have ever gotten in this game and only my third character. It felt like the bosses HP got a crazy buff though... so I'm happy you confirmed that. It may also be important to note i play Coop with a friend.... which I have been told by some only increases loot and others that tell me it makes them hit harder? I can't get a straight answer on that.
RIP anyone hoping to play this build, Cospri's are now up to 1ex lol
its 2.4 ex atm :I
Nice I have 2
yup i stopped the leveling it was very cheap now boom
Please dont ever take a sponsor with Raid: Shadow Legends.
thank you Osoro , this is the 2cond build i play from your videos and only i have to say BRUTAL
Always loved CoC Builds, but i think i'll never be able to afford one. I'm actually impressed with the quality of your content, the details, it must be time consuming. Congratz on the work man, it's fucking amasing.
Quick guys, invest on these items for a marginal profit of 200%!
I get 1 shot often with this build :(
I had this issue a few leagues ago, try to fit in a Blind support into your chest 6link until you get Pandemonius. I played it as a league starter and once I got blind and ~3k life, I could play it without an issue (even without cospri)
Are you getting truly one shotted or almost one shotted. Because almost oneshot can be fixed with es on hit or life on hit stuff.
This guy right here and Engineering Eternity were the two gigachads I learned POE from... Hats off
Loving the build, and I love your guides. You really deserve more notoriety. I'm curious how this build will handle 3.9 late game, with the massive hits some bosses are dishing out. I've been hearing people with 8-10k life are getting one-shot. Either way, it's super fun so far. Thanks man, keep up the good work. You really should stream with your ability to make content exciting.
One question I forgot to ask: With Vaal Ice Nova, mine definitely isn't spreading like yours did in the video on Legion packs. I'm assuming it scales off area effect?
This video was amazing, so much effort invested in making it, cheers mate, i hope its not too late in the league for me to do this, but ill go for it now :)
dont do it, just leveld to 69 for the weapons. only to realize, the cheapest cost 800 chaos...
@@happyday7689 Somehow its possible, but not a starter friendly build, i managed to get all the gear in few days, just did a normal coc with daggers, until i could afford cospris, i got very lucky and dropped Halcyon also (costs the same as cospris) But it will take long time for ppl to start fully enjoy the build cause of price.
This is the best guide.
Clear and complete with option.
What an efficient and fun build to play !! Thank you man for your work !
Of course man! Thank you for giving it a shot, glad its been fun so far!
Added a medium cluster jewel with Blast-Freeze(20% cold dmg and Freezes all within 12m on freeze) and Cold-Blooded K(heals 2% max hp per kill). which takes 6 skill points to fill. The large cluster with these cost 1ex while the medium was only 10 chaos. It provides extrem survivability increase.
what was the trade off on the skill tree?
You have a link to your POB? I'm interested in seeing your points spent, as I've been curious on using a cluster jewel as well. But then again, have to sacrifice points from elsewhere.
Damn Esoro, why I didn't checked this build before, looks really bad ass.
I'm using you Cyc Max Block Gladiator build and im having a blast, thanks for sharing such good builds :))
I love pure physical damage deal but this build is insane! Really like it. Many thanks!
This build looks like a tonne of fun. I like that there are quite a few places where you can flex and experiment with different options, like the jewel sockets. To me, a good build is one where you can develop it and continually make small tweaks and improvements all the time.
Hope you end up giving the build a shot! I tried to include as many alternatives, budget and high end options as possible. I really want to help people find a unique way to run the build that suits them best!
What abyssal jewel do you recommend for the belt? I did not see that recommendation anywhere in the video, maybe I missed it. Amazing build guide and the most fun I've had in this game playing this build. Thanks man!
My main build in 3.8 :) LOVE IT! Thank you Master!
For gloves, im using Southbound Soldier Gloves! It's awesome!
That's incredible to hear man, I'm really happy the build did some good work for you! Thank you for supporting the channel, plenty more guides on the way soon for 3.9!
Ditto
i don't have play cyclone since delve , will try ur build for délirium thx man , i'm hyped by your video ^^
