Looks really good. For, it is worth being aware that the modifier: "Increased melee critical strike chance" does not apply to the ball portion of the skill, so while it is still helping the DPS of the melee hit, there may be better nodes to look for a lethal pride.
Dope build, been running it for a while, insta-nukes ubers. Turns out on fights with bosses that take a moment to spawn in, u can swing molten strike 2 or 3 times to get to the 5th hit faster, you dont need to hit anything for the hit amounts to add to 5, so once they spawn in, you can leap slam thru them(To apply brittle) and then swing once or twice to proc the 5th hit for an instant nuke.
Very detail video, keep it up bro ... in these day its hard to find good video like this ... all poe youtuber goes cringy almost no one explain depth detail anymore
@@-rugz1342 yeah, but it’s way to squishy for my taste. It was around 200 divs because i already had the mageblood. I did a somewhat experiment and implemented this strategy to a armor stacker buget build (around 400 divs) and it’s working great like all uber bosses, even uber uber elder
Hey man, this build looks insane. Looking forward to trying this out. For leveling, I assume you level as a different build? If yes, what would you recommend? And when should I make the switch?
I transitioned my frost blades character into this one after I was already level 100, but you could probably switch over around 90 and be alright. One thing about molten strike is that it’s not the best for map clearing. You can definitely still do it and it’s not bad by any means, but if you’re used to a super zoomy map blaster, molten strike may feel a little slow.
It doesn’t even need attack speed. The rolls on the weapon don’t matter at all. All you need to do is make sure that it’s a two handed melee weapon that has the right color of sockets for whatever gems you want to put in.
How would this build be without the nimis for now? I can craft most of the gear. I have a Mb and an adorned 145. Would I still be doing good damage without nimis? Also, Is this build able to run t17s comfortably?
Absolutely. I covered this in the video but you can just use returning projectiles in place of energy leech until you get a nimis. You will lose a little bit of damage but you should still have no problems doing T17’s.
I’d say around level 90 ish is the earliest I’d make the switch. You can play the build without mageblood and nimis as well, you’re just gonna have significantly less damage. I leveled as frost blades, but I’ve also heard good things about the mine/exsanguinate trickster build
You could drop nimis, then run returning projectiles in place of energy leech. Drop mageblood and run purity of elements in place of discipline. Drop the adorned and just use regular jewels with ES/Int. That would drop like 250-300 div off the total cost. I started playing the build without any of those items and it still wrecked
@@ZerkSees sorry for late reply, thanks for the info, i have mageblood and stuff now and can probably scrap by with the build, did i hear right you said minimum 125 adorned is needed
Dude, show some of the build. How it plays is more important even than the numbers you dreamed up in PoB. Show us why your build is cool, then explain it.
I think the Trickster version is better on a budget. If money isn’t an option then I think Berserker could potentially pull ahead, but I’ve never actually played FB as a Berserker. I’ve only seen other creators play as a Berserker so that’s just a guess if I’m being honest.

That’s a good point! I didn’t even think of that. Thanks for the heads up.

Hell yea, glad you enjoyed it!
Good shit bro. Loved the frostblades Trickster. Haven’t played right side of the tree in so long and think I want to give that one a try
Very detail video, keep it up bro ... in these day its hard to find good video like this ... all poe youtuber goes cringy almost no one explain depth detail anymore
Thank you! I appreciate that
You just earned a subscriber. Keep up the good work! I'm going to try going for this build from tommorow.
I just wanted to build some interesting build and I found this and wanted to try it, but I don't want to waste my time just because it doesn't work
have you put this together yet and does it work?
how much did the complete assembly cost?
@@-rugz1342 yeah, but it’s way to squishy for my taste. It was around 200 divs because i already had the mageblood. I did a somewhat experiment and implemented this strategy to a armor stacker buget build (around 400 divs) and it’s working great like all uber bosses, even uber uber elder
This is such a good guide. Thank you, can you league start this or would you just go fb trickster for that?
Hell yeah
Hi, I just wonder can we swap shavonne to original sin version :>. Any advice for that. Btw, really like your video
I’m sure you could probably make it work but I think there are plenty of other builds that would benefit way more from having an original sin

Any showcase of T17, Ubers?
Questions about the weapon. Can it be any kind of two handed weapon, rare, unique. Just needs attack speed?
It doesn’t even need attack speed. The rolls on the weapon don’t matter at all. All you need to do is make sure that it’s a two handed melee weapon that has the right color of sockets for whatever gems you want to put in.

@@ZerkSees awesome. Thank you!
One more question, is int on magic jewels mandatory or would crit multi be better?
At what point/level does the build come online? and what would you suggest to level with up till that point?
I’d say around level 90 ish is the earliest I’d make the switch. You can play the build without mageblood and nimis as well, you’re just gonna have significantly less damage. I leveled as frost blades, but I’ve also heard good things about the mine/exsanguinate trickster build
In 21 minutes I’d put at least a mapping/boss showcase in.
Were you not paying attention in the beginning where I said “go watch this video to see what the build can do?”
thin build can do t17 maps? normal or back to básics?
I haven’t tried doing back to basics on T17’s but normal T17’s are a piece of cake so I’m sure it could handle it.
is there a budget version for like 50ish lol

That’s what you need to hit a certain breakpoint, but if you can’t afford that then you can get by with anything over 100 honestly
@@ZerkSees thanks, without nimi's i wouldn't use return proj when swapping to frost blades at any time right since its weird without proj speed?
You could give it a try and see how it feels, I don’t know if I ever tried it with returning projectiles so I’m really not sure to be honest.
this better than SS or not ?
I’ve never played SS before so I really have no idea
No index / time stemps.. :|
Is this build capable of running T17s?
Yea this build can handle T17’s no problem
Dude, show some of the build. How it plays is more important even than the numbers you dreamed up in PoB. Show us why your build is cool, then explain it.
Did you miss the part in the very beginning of the video where I said “hey watch this other video if you haven’t seen the build in action?”
@@ZerkSees nope, just uninterested in watching a second video to see if this one is one I want to watch.
Who’s better overall Berserker or Trickster for frost blades? I know this is a different build but, I’m thinking about playing the build
I think the Trickster version is better on a budget. If money isn’t an option then I think Berserker could potentially pull ahead, but I’ve never actually played FB as a Berserker. I’ve only seen other creators play as a Berserker so that’s just a guess if I’m being honest.
