Im in a strange state of hoping for a good chaos-damage based witch ascendancy coming out but at the same time not wanting to lose chronomancer abilities XD
This build is very similar to the build I made while playing with my son. I was a witch, and he was a chayula monk. We wore those decompose boots as well and had a blast in the campaign. Great video
Do you have the Corpsewade boots? You are 97 so they must have dropped multiple times by now. They scale very high with chaos and/or poison damage. They automatically consume corpses as you move to leave a chaos AOE cloud. You should try Temp Chains and Despair in Blasphemy. I switched from Enfeeble and I love it.
I love this build so much. I made my own adaptation, too. Running with temp chains instead of enfeeble. In standard league I'm up to 9000 dps with chain and 1400 dps for damage over time. Ditched the minions, but only because spirit is hard to come by. It's slow at time to kill, yes, but it can even tackle pinnacles, while you can tone down on personal skill, because everything moves soooo slow. Huge plus for me, haha. Running a fully fledged meta gemlin, stormweaver and minion mommy, my chrono chaos queen I like the best. And the best part: other than my other builds, this one was just about 30 div to be almost perfect. Minus the missing spirit of course. I think I'll get a time-lost for that. I wasn't confident enough to do a hardcore char, yet, but your video sure is inspiring. On that note: mad respect to you for playing hardcore only And man, this build would be such a good support char in group play. But why is there no content in poe 2 that would call for a support build? A raid in this game would be SO awesome!
Thanks for the kind words! I must say once you die in maps, hardcore is a bit harsh because the campaign is so long, thats why I play reeeeaally safe 😅 But at the same time this is what makes the idea of killing end bosses such an amazing goal and makes it feel totally worth the perseverance.
@@hakase2036 something i have to say. you don't need spec skill duration nodes. you have wand+shield in one weapon set and than ur main weapon set has all damage nodes.
@dodang_9147 very good point, I dont have a second comparable weapon though and shield atm tho, I guess I could use a less good wep+shield just to do time freeze, but then I incur wep swap time penalty if I wanna use it as oh shit button. I always run wand+shield, though if I had a good staff/focus I could swap to that for bosses, but an additional issue is that my shield also gives me a lot of resists
@@hakase2036 most of the time, you can predict the death ahead of time, at least when it comes swarming. the only thing you can't predict is 1 shot kill and in my opinion, time freeze won't help you vs a 1 shot kill.
I am 99% certain that Intense Agony should be on essence drain, not contagion. Contagion spreads ED's buffed damage, otherwise you're only buffing the contagion portion of the damage. You can test with minion pact, things die way faster because it's buffed essence drain being spread. Can you confirm as well?
Also I'm pretty sure the curse duration nodes near the double curse capstone are bugged and don't increase curse duration, but spell effect duration nodes do
Interesting not sure about the bugs. Re intense agony, I dont want to lose a support slot to a gem that only does more damage to full health mobs, as my struggle is with high health targets which take multiple ED casts to kill (mostly bosses). Maybe I can swap it out on bosses idk, but Im also not a big fan of swapping supports like that 😅
@hakase2036 I am not a big fan of swapping either but gotta say the difference in damage using hourglass and drain ailments (swapping out chain and intense agony) is big. Intense agony is fantastic for mapping. Anyway double check those things I mentioned previously and good luck
@@jakpad8625 The reason intense agony goes in contagion is because contagion kills the first target with extra 50% (if it was full health) then spreads that dot onto the next target applying another 50% which will keep applying every time it catches a new target, making the damage exponential. (GGG most probably overlooked this interaction or didn't put too much thought on it) The second reason is that if you have ED with drain ailments and intense agony, the first hit doesn't apply drain ailments, the second hit doesn't apply intense agony. in both cases one of the supports is not applying unless you do 0 dmg ignites shenanigans or prep'ing shock ground etc.
You love POE 2? You want more challenge? You already play only Hardcore? And SSF? Then try having no offense or defense to speak of. Enter Essence Drain! How do you kill enemies, you ask? By making them dead exhausted from stomping your ass all the time.
I just use an almost default filterblade filter, just filtering out magic and normal items that arent ones I could have a use for on any builds Id wanna play anytime soon like gear with armor, armor/es, armor/evasion, melee weps. I am still at the point where I dont get enough rare items to filter any of them out so I pick up and sell all the ones I dont have a use for
thanks for the shoutout. And Nice one, Hakase. You can watch the new showcase 0.1.1 update for the build. The damage a lot more the defensive, a lot more. You can watch it make your build on HC more tanky and more dps th-cam.com/video/HuzK1HC-V-s/w-d-xo.htmlsi=EZOmSNbQITRz57Lj
Sure man, thanks for your guide! Gave me find my fav build so far :D I have checked out the update, I just personally really dont wanna use a bunch of other skills to increase my damage, too lazy XD Maybe once I get to like proper bosses I will have to consider incorporating some of those extra abilities :)
Hmm, I feel like the defining aspect to this build that makes rather than breaks the current relative weakness of ED for me is the chronomancer aspect, so I dont see how pathfinder could be compared to it...

might have to try this in s1

thanks for the showcase, gonna try it myself
Nice to see an ethical SSF build. You could use Decompose for the big bosses if you struggle. Also, Temp Chains is multiplicative with Time Stop.
Well Im defo on the lookout for the extra curse ring 😁
By decompose, you mean the unique boots? How does that work?
Do you have the Corpsewade boots? You are 97 so they must have dropped multiple times by now. They scale very high with chaos and/or poison damage. They automatically consume corpses as you move to leave a chaos AOE cloud.
You should try Temp Chains and Despair in Blasphemy. I switched from Enfeeble and I love it.
I am 76 unfortunately not 97 haha
Yeah I do have those boots, sounds interesting, perhaps Im being overcautious with enfeeble… might try it

Made me chuckle :)
which loot filter would be good for HC SSF?

unfortunately this just looks like a much weaker version of PConc pathfinder. Def should check that out too if you like this playstyle.
Hmm, I feel like the defining aspect to this build that makes rather than breaks the current relative weakness of ED for me is the chronomancer aspect, so I dont see how pathfinder could be compared to it...
I’ve seen a lot of dead Pathfinders in HC. Chaos Chronomancer with a 20s time stop is pretty tough to kill.
*ethical
This build should legit be nominated for nobel prize in ethics.
This is so unethical it wouldn't be legal in Europe
Thank goodness I emigrated XD
