Since this video I've upgraded the build substantially. There's still some min/maxing I could do but I'm very happy with this version: pobb.in/u/Subtractem/lacerate_glad
They actually succeeded with the Melee changes this league. Slam builds, block builds, bleed builds, fast elemental melee builds, Flicker Strike EVEN Blood Magic builds are feeling much better now. Endurance Charge changes also carrying!
Hello Subtractem, this build just saved my league. I have been playing for the past two days and having a blast. I was playing eviscerate version and switched to this version and been blasting poe ever since.
Sir you are a genius i was ahving a horrible time with my gladiator trying impale and block ... then i spent 1 entire day (yesterday) to recreate your gear by myself since i love crafting, it's not 100% done yet cuz i still wanna re craft my shield again, get a new amulet and a new axe again maybe...but holy cow...finally i can map and i'm blasting the t16 maps, thanks for your work as always :'d
I mispoke when recording the video as I forgot about Unwavering Stance. We don't need any stun/block recovery so I switched into the Arctic Armour + Soul of Arakaali setup in the PoB as well as using the "Always fortify" mastery for bossing comfort. Feel free to still use Blood and Sand + Brine King if you prefer but the PoB presents a more idealized setup.
Glad I ended up following this build. I don't have every item/passive skill yet, but I branched off of Ziz's league start Lacerate and got myself all of the skill gems and Jack the Axe. I was having issues with my wrists feeling sore, but now I can pretty much chill. Didn't think this would be what I value most out of a build, but thank you so much.
First time running a map on this build was extremely lucky. Blue altar gave 4.2% chance for extra divine drops and left with 13 divines. The build itself is so fun but I need some better rolls for bossing. For those iffy, just follow exactly what he says and how he crafts each gear and you'll be fine.
I have been enjoying sweep bleed glad (2H no shield/block yolo). Interesting to see how you are building. Thanks for your contributions to the poe community!
I have tried the lacerate/retaliation builds of other creators and this is by far the best variation, and it is not even close. the builds from others are just so expensive and feels bad to play. thanks for saving my gladiator!
I would highly recommend trying ward on this build - get helmet and gloves with ward. It should be pretty easy to get 700. With that amount of block you don't get hit very often, so it is already nice, and then you craft "(5-10)% chance to Restore your Ward on Hit" on your axe. It works very well with block.
I love PoE because if you master the mechanics of the game, you can craft a build that is capable of just standing in the middle of endgame content without worrying about dying.
on any builds i struggle with resistences... the solution is.... get a cluster jewel with small passives all elemental resists and increased effect of small passives works fine every time^^.
What setup would you recommend leveling for this? I got a bunch of money so imma make one last build for the league and would like to try bleed glad, since my current build ive farmed with has been Frost Blades slayer.
your version look cool. meanwhile i leaguestarted lacerate based on ziraran and it was the most miserable experience of my life because of how slow lacerate is as a main skill
@@lilfrostyy8829 EQ is significantly better for clearing you will not regret it. You have to swap for t17s/pinnacles to lacerate but it's much easier than using it for mapping
my man! if you still have the vod with the crafting video, I think it would help a lot, besides of being a good content! I coudn't grasp correctly how you used to get some stats on fossils strategy, so the video would help alot. anyway, awesome vid as always! keep them coming!
I should try this. As I haven’t played since Synthesis, and I’m relatively inexperienced, I went with a tornado shot build I saw on poebuilds. For the most part it can do decent damage up to T14 where my lack of good gear starts to hinder me, and I get nuked by rares way before I reach the boss trying to do expedition lol
I'm glad to have your powerful brain at the Bleed Glad side, I'm sure there are many great things to come. Food for thought: have you looked at Perforate? I've been enjoying it A LOT
aura area only works for blood stance - sand stance is a buff on player and does not interact with aura area - I think GGG clears that in the FAQ post @Subtractem
Love this video, would love to make a build similar for myself. I'm sort of a POB noob though... why is are there no items in the loadout for the chest and gloves? They just show as blank.
I have a lvl 100 LS Slayer but not really enjoying the playstyle and cant afford the high end items due to prices. Would gladiator be a good build to swap to for general endgame farming or is it also expensive right now? Looking at sweep builds as well but just not sure.
This is a really fun version of this build! I am electing to build into defenses where I can with a plan to run inscribed ultimatums at some point, and base glad is so tanky on its own. Do you think a defiance of destiny + petrified blood combo would work well for that? Or is it overkill?
Isn't it better to use frostblink, vulnerability and enduring cry on a 3 socket setup, and then move CWDT, more duration and molten shell to a 4 link setup together with warbanner so warbanner can benifit from more duration aswell?
I badly want to fit purity of elements in lol. So many modifiers end game cause annoying ailments. Be nice to just block them all and then with the extra resist put more chaos resist / defenses / damage in place of some of the current resists.
Hey subtractem, I think you interpreted aggravated wrong, it is counted as a separate instance from the normal bleed, so it effectively does bleed dps as if the target was moving as a bonus to the normal bleed + movement, at least that's how GGG expained it and it's on the wiki. So I think the node could boost your dps significantly.
@@subtractem Thank you, wasn't aware of the forum post and the wiki is indeed explained poorly, anyway thanks for the video, the addition of leap slam of grounding makes my build way more enjoyable
A lot of these lacerate gladiator builds ..well all of them show taking axe mastery %30 more damage in blood stance but you are not running blood and sand? How does this benefit?
Other people run it without the skill because a character is always considered to be in blood stance, even if you aren't running the blood and sand skill.
Very informative video guide. My biggest thing I'd like more of is attack speed! Slow attacks for me just aren't fun. Everyone is using Reaver axes for the damage so you don't see many Vaal Hatchets or faster bases. Any suggestions on how to get more attack speed?
Due to the way that bleed works you really just want a slow weapon that hits hard. Really nothing comes close to a Royal or Reaver axe for top end damage on a 1H weapon base. All you can do is really try to get attack speed on the suffix, that will be your biggest multiplier. I will likely try to craft another axe soon that has it because I want to be much faster as well!
You're totally right. I forgot about unwavering while I was recording. Herald of purity isn't a bad idea, though I'd much rather try to fit in arctic armour instead for more defense.
does that niko sulphite/azurite atlas tree node work if you are full of sulphite (i.e. don't delve to use it)? it seems like I get no azurite because I'm not getting sulphite also you should maybe take As The Mountain instead of Testudo ... will end up with even higher block for attacks, still cap spell block, AND have one skill pt left over :-)
It's not a bad idea but I lose life gain on block and block recovery. Gaining 2% after lucky block is nice though so definitely worth considering. The azurite still works when full yes.
@@subtractem Well you could use that extra skill pt for the 20/20 life/mana on block mastery ... still a win for having the +3% max attack block (brings it to 90% lucky) Also, maybe this changed over the years ... but doesn't Unwavering Stance completely remove the need for block recovery? If you can't be stunned, you have 0 block animation time to worry about so block recovery is a wasted stat right? I mean it used to be like 10 years ago but I've haven't played block in years so could be wrong!
how does "Elemental Ailments" on boots takes into concideration bleeding damage? Cause i took Zizaran's build which is pure physical and i wanted to try and switch it partialy to yours but i don't know if it's gonna work better or worse.
Hey I havn't started the league yet and i've seen many cool builds but yours has captivated my attention the most. Is this build league starter viable or better not with it?
The gear shared here is going to take you a bit to get going but a lower end version of this can absolutely be a starter and you can aim for this later on.
I'm not super sure about the aggravated bleeds and the tempest rising+venopuncture combo. Aren't Aggravated bleeds a seperate thing from a moving bleed? Might be wrong, and if I am, why are there so many characters on poeninja that take the aggravate ascendancy with that 2 uniues combo?
Is it worth switching to regular Lacerate when starting maps until you can obtain a Lacerate of Hemo? Or should I just stay Sunder until I can buy the better Lacerate?
You can use it but regular Lacerate honestly feels kind of bad to use. I'd probably just farm/buy the transfigured version and use Sunder for longer (that's what I did).
Mostly exercise, stretching, and playing less. Also being WAY more conscious of my ergonomics so I'm not putting pressure on my wrist/forearm against the desk, I think that was really the primary culprit.
I'm playing Kripp's version of this and my league start was so easy to get to t16s and speed clearing content. I can not recommend this archetype more. That life gained on block is absolutely nutty and it's going to get nerfed next league, so play it now people.
I haven't played this league, thinking about playing but I always need guides to have a clue of what im going for. What would you say is the main difference between Kripp's version and this one? And if I wouldn't like that version but want to switch to this one, would that be reasonable/doable or no? Sorry for the noob questions.
@@Tandoliga Life on block makes an insane difference. Don't be spreading misinformation. EHP with life on block makes you infinitely tankier than without.
@@panda93247 Ah thanks, that's similar to what I'm trying now. I got inspired to try this league with a gladiator lacerate build. Someone in comments mentioned PoE vault version and it also uses blood magic. It's called "PoEVault's Lacerate Gladiator Build Guide (PoE Settlers of Kalguur 3.25)". I just wanted to get into the game instead of getting analysis paralysis. I haven't seen Kripp's version yet, but it is probably somewhat similar. As long as the early mapping is similar, I'd say I can always respec into another variant if I really wanted to?
OMG these boots are 5 div on ps4! And I don’t even want to try going up against Uber Sirus… I was able to beat T17 depraved trinity (it took an hour 😂). Am I correct in assuming Uber Sirus is much harder?
Uber Sirus will be annoying with this build because he's a VERY anti-melee fight. Most ubers, at higher investment, are very easily with this build as long as you don't stand in any degens. That's pretty wild about the price, you can get a low roll of these boots for 20c on PC. Console economy is just really unfortunate.
please check out goratha's current week 1 bleed glad, he has had some really cool ideas to further bleed functionality in a few areas, i would like to know what you have to say about his approach (even though he is retaliate, it is not too different from lacerate honestly)
The main flaw of lacerate as a skill is the clear. Even with bleed pops, you'll be quite disappointed if you're used to skills like arc, lightning arrow, or even the new slams. In my opinion, having a 4-6 link shield charge/leap slam setup(like Sub's setup) results in comfier and faster clear. The tradeoff is weaker single target(putting lacerate on a 4 link for big boys and a 6 link travel skill) and higher socket pressure(if you 4-6 link your travel skill, that's about 2-4 sockets you're missing out on). So Sub's setup is more of an endgame swap when you know a single bleed deals enough damage to reliably kill any map mob you come across. Ziz's build guide can carry you through your voidstones, but in the endgame, you'll likely want more speed and clear, not dmg and survivability(both stats that a lacerate glad now excel in).
@@azure6051 At 2 voidstones, it's up to you. By this point, leap slam+bleed pops likely outright kills any blue pack or lower. A solo rare however can still take time to beat down. So for a typical harvest strat, swapping right now to Sub's setup makes sense. The rare harvest enemies will be weakened a lot by bleed explodes, and you'll only need to fight 2-3 of them per map.
@1:30 How does the Boots + Ring cause aggravated ?? You are Chilled while you are Bleeding Non-Chilled Enemies you inflict Bleeding on are Chilled Bleeding Enemies you Kill with Hits Shatter You and Enemies in your Presence count as moving while affected by Elemental Ailments There is nothing here that causes ailments to yourself? and also you & enemies don't count as moving, if your the one dealing the ailment. You would have to find a way to self-inflict an ailment to yourself? Can anyone confirm if the combo is glitched & works, or not? Other Thoughts, Maybe use Golden Rule Jewel?
Dude, you just saved my character. I started with Ziz's version which works great to a certain point, but I didn't know where to take it. Also lacerate to clear is awwwwful. Will 100% try this version!
Yeah if the build is done Right it does quite a bit of dps but clear is so bad. I'm just use to bow clear its ruined anything else for me Bow Rot brain I have. also my Lacerate was a starter and I just couldn't stick with it.
Using directx12? Try swapping to others and see if you can get stability. If not to a full system and game reinstall. Had to do that last week to get stability.

What skill do you use to level/clear mobs with? Ive been using sunder but it feels a bit slow (I'm in act 3 now)
sunder is the best bet for leveling. once you get bleed on it it'll feel good
How do you keep your mana regen up with all resistances capped with those two uniques is witchcraft.
Automation with phase run n molten shell is nice too

please check out goratha's current week 1 bleed glad, he has had some really cool ideas to further bleed functionality in a few areas, i would like to know what you have to say about his approach (even though he is retaliate, it is not too different from lacerate honestly)
im playing a similar version of this build... i call it "The grasshopper" 😅
should i go for this or the one from ziz
The main flaw of lacerate as a skill is the clear. Even with bleed pops, you'll be quite disappointed if you're used to skills like arc, lightning arrow, or even the new slams.
In my opinion, having a 4-6 link shield charge/leap slam setup(like Sub's setup) results in comfier and faster clear. The tradeoff is weaker single target(putting lacerate on a 4 link for big boys and a 6 link travel skill) and higher socket pressure(if you 4-6 link your travel skill, that's about 2-4 sockets you're missing out on).
So Sub's setup is more of an endgame swap when you know a single bleed deals enough damage to reliably kill any map mob you come across. Ziz's build guide can carry you through your voidstones, but in the endgame, you'll likely want more speed and clear, not dmg and survivability(both stats that a lacerate glad now excel in).
@@MrKippers im currently at 2 voidstones and farming lifeforce for money. so i should stick with zizarans build for now?
@@azure6051 At 2 voidstones, it's up to you.
By this point, leap slam+bleed pops likely outright kills any blue pack or lower. A solo rare however can still take time to beat down.
So for a typical harvest strat, swapping right now to Sub's setup makes sense. The rare harvest enemies will be weakened a lot by bleed explodes, and you'll only need to fight 2-3 of them per map.
@@MrKippers ok ty for you help. only need to farm some currency to swap now xd
You need to double-corrupt that Lacerate of Haemorrhage gem :)
I am missing something? You said “if enemies resistant for physical dmg I explode them”. Where you mentioning that explode skill later on?
Bleed explodes are a core part of the gladiator ascendency.
When it says damage over time with hits from this weapon. I guess it doesnt stack with SST as you are hitting with your shield?
Correct, sst scales with the armor on the shield.
Leap was cool but shield charge felt better running around
i have arround 40 divine in my stash.... should i begin to build or not?
Do it!
@@subtractem haha verry close call sir... iclude weapon (7div) i got from arround 40 div now 147c in my stash xD But i got all nice!
Venopuncture Iron Ring how can I get that ring with Bleeding cannot inflict on you?
Kinga new to that game
has to be corrupted, usually with a Vaal Orb. there is a low chance for this to hit anti-bleed so in trade league it's usually easiest to buy it
@1:30 How does the Boots + Ring cause aggravated ??
You are Chilled while you are Bleeding
Non-Chilled Enemies you inflict Bleeding on are Chilled
Bleeding Enemies you Kill with Hits Shatter
You and Enemies in your Presence count as moving while affected by Elemental Ailments
There is nothing here that causes ailments to yourself? and also you & enemies don't count as moving, if your the one dealing the ailment.
You would have to find a way to self-inflict an ailment to yourself?
Can anyone confirm if the combo is glitched & works, or not?
Other Thoughts, Maybe use Golden Rule Jewel?
The Line is not "while you are affected by", so if the Enemy is affected by an Ailment, it is count as moving.
I slapped some retaliation in for more fortify and shit, farming feared sitting around 97m dps
Crafting that shield is a pain in da butt lol, 2 divine into it now and nada
My lacerate turned into lancing steel but im cool with it lol
How do you get 250% quant t17 ive only been able to get up to 225%
I would assume 8-mod corrupted.
6:12 i grabbed 1 mana leech thing somewhere... and its enough plus the -10 mana cost of non channeled abilities. Im literally never out of mana.
I'm having a rough time with mana sustain! Mind sharing more specifically what you snagged for mana leech?
Dude, you just saved my character. I started with Ziz's version which works great to a certain point, but I didn't know where to take it. Also lacerate to clear is awwwwful. Will 100% try this version!
At what point does it get awful? I’ve only just hit red maps but it feels great
Im having a time getting resists up jus ton ziz's build. I finally got that belt but can't use it lol
we have essentially the same build, but im still using a royal axe. i guess im going to blow all my currency and try to craft that axe. wish me luck.
Get it! Feels great when it hits.
Yeah if the build is done Right it does quite a bit of dps but clear is so bad. I'm just use to bow clear its ruined anything else for me Bow Rot brain I have. also my Lacerate was a starter and I just couldn't stick with it.
why my block chance is 68% (+33%) While yours 90%?
You need the lucky block node on gladiator "More Than Skill" so it rolls twice.
name of track at the end?
Cammy theme from street fighter 6
Cant play right now, game crash like hell. Nice build
Using directx12? Try swapping to others and see if you can get stability. If not to a full system and game reinstall. Had to do that last week to get stability.
