- @Ben_PoEThis video takes a look at @Ben_PoE's Reap Pathfinder build that was created with the help of some incredible gear in the Trial of the Ancestor's Hardcore Trade league. The build deals very respectable damage, but this video takes a closer look at why this Pathfinder is so insanely tanky and goes into detail on each of the defensive layers and how they interact with each other.

Other notable defences not mentioned in the video: CWDT Immortal Call, Permanent Consecrated Ground contributing to ~70% reduced effect of curses, Corrupted Blood immunty and 40% reduced extra damage taken from crits. Ben was also stacking Tattoos of the Arohongui Warmonger to reach 100% chance to shatter enemies for corpse denial.
Is it possible to make a similar setup of constant flask using Forbidden Taste and Coruscating Elixir with increased maximum chaos resistance? Essentially using Forbidden Taste to regain all your health, which is immediately burned to supply you with energy shield. I tried my best in PoB, but my skills are clearly tiny compared to the people who come up with these builds.
Sucks that characters like this can’t be HotGM viable since the exiles there can’t use flasks.. otherwise they could make the reward for completion a mirror every time
@@jsing5022 pretty sure phys dot would still send this to the shadow realm within a few secs lol
@@shiiiitstain I’d have to see the pob but it’s dumb easy to become bleed immune and cb immune
... . Molten shell its not so good now
This was one of my favorite videos of yours so far. I like your analysis of mechanics, but summarizing that kind of information with the context of it being used on a GG character is next level. More of this please!
Glad to hear that, thanks!
The coolest part is remembering when 75% ele res was the defensive cap, but in true poe fashion, people always find ways to break the cap. For the longest time 90% was seen as breaking the cap, but now, with all these extra mechanics, it's effectively 99% dr, and also in true poe fashion, the character still died.
Chris : I still have the kill button😂
I have 18000 hp 91 all res and 100% hp regen a second with rathpith globe billions of dps. And I don't "still die"
@@willwell2360pob?
@@willwell2360 we need pob
Hard cap is 90 75 is a soft cap anything over 90% is irrelevant
Easily the best and most digestible breakdown of stacked defensive layers I’ve come across! Super helpful video I’d love to see more in depth looks at stuff like this personally. Thanks for sharing!
i'm glad you picked up on the idea of analyzing other people's builds, this was really insightful, amazing video, gg
YES!! i love how u explain how a character able to function!
I liked this for sure. Would love to see more. Would also enjoy if you highlighted opportunities to improve or places you could easily trade a little tank for damage or vice versa.
A follow up on the offensive scaling would also complement this video nicely. Reap is insane with overlaps with awakened spell cascade, the fact that we get all damage to chaos with enemies chaos res set to 0 and we can inflict lots of wither PLUS use void maniuplation is quite nice also.
I think this build in general shows the real power of tools like OS. Since you no longer have to worry about reducing/penetrating resists you win alot of affixes and gem sockets on gear aswell as freeing up passive points. It's expensive to get going but let's you spec way harder into defence than other builds could while maintaining a high base level offence.
TL:DR Original sins is arguably part of the defence since it carries so much of the offence that you can even focus that hard on defences in the first place.
Pretty much a PoE Masterclass in defense layering. Ben never ceases to amaze
Awesome deep dive my dood! Loved the Defiance of Destiny vid and now this! Amazing analytics! 📊 Looking forward to more!
Great video! I'll show this my friends whenever I try to explain defensive layers for the Xth time
Excellent deep dive. Thank you
Love the new concept, i want to see more build :D
Great details in the explanation ! Thanks a lot !
Great video! Thank you for deep explanation!
I'd love to see more build analysis videos like this one. It gives me build ideas for the future ...
I think this is one of the best build showcases I've ever seen
Great video man awesome information
thanks for the informative video!
Amazing breakdown and explanation, overall great video!
What at great video! So detailed in the explanation that it becomes a great learning video
Great video, finally a character who can tank physical hits
Amazing video!!! I would love to see one for offense, no matter how hard I try I haven't been able to go over 8mill on my own builds on a good day with favorable wind, I know that big part is playing ssf, but still I'm sure there's something fundamental that I haven't understood yet.
amazing video. thanks for the great explanation!
Appreciate that!
Great video!
Amazing video!!!
There are stuff missing that was worth mentioning, but great overview. I will apply the tattoo tech on my next build since reaching 90 is core on it. Let's see if I can apply that around the witch.
Very good video!
This was really cool
Great video, please do more.
Running a simmilar setup, but using transcendence , eternal damnation, loreweave with a eow arcanist brand build. Only need 40k armour for 90% bc eternal damnation is additive to transcendence
really good analyze
Solid video, amigo. You should definitely do more build-deepdives. It was super informative for us mere mortals.
Your content is god tier my bro. I learn so much from it.
Glad to hear it!
awesome video good job
Pure gold vid, tks
Super interesting! As a new player (Ancestor is only my 2nd league where I reach maps/endgame) I would be even more interested in a similar video for damage. I think I pretty much understand how to layer defensives and get a really resilient build, but I usually struggle more with getting damage to a comfortable level. I'm following guides, and there always seems to be a unexpected gimmick that enables damage to be pushed to at least decent level
What is "decent" damage for you?
I got a acc stacker that I threw together for a couple of div. It demolishes lower tier maps. Even stupid things like ghosted, 6 essence, einhar beasts without any issue. But that is not why I play him. I play him because he can use whirl blade 10 times every second.
I have done t16 logbooks with him, he was not made to be a logbook farmer so he felt absolutely terrible.
So what is it you need damage for? What content?
I normally make builds with a specific purpose in mind. Such as my simulacrum farming necromancer. Or a lab farmer. Or MFer for card farming. Or an Uber bosser farmer.
What content do you enjoy the most? If it changes make a new build :-)
@@taiwanisacountryenough to clear comfortably tier 16 maps + map end boss, with some league mechanics thrown in (essence, delirium, excavation, legion, whatever), maybe push to 8 mods and non-uber pinnacle bosses
@@OLApplin wow that is a high end build. That is unrealistic for the vast majority of builds. Because what you want is a generalist build that can do everything comfortably.
Most people don't have such a build. It is a good project and I would recommend tornado shot, Int stacker, dex stacker, str stacker, or charge stacker. They are all prohibitively expensive.
@@OLApplin I forgot to ask for clarification. Is it any 8 mod combinations while during like 80% delirious, with legion, strong boxes, all the good stuff? That makes the process much harder. But it is doable to have such a build even within a reasonable budget. I did any 8 mod combinations, 80% pack size, 80% delirious, legion, strong box, farmer 2 leagues ago. He was quasi immortal. He is not budget this league.
So you need a ton of different things, no regn+no leech, is a B. But that is where: on hit/recoup/other ways of recovery comes into the picture. The best defence in such maps is killing everything before they can kill you. So you need in my opinion around 40 mil DPS to do such content. And there are a lot of builds that can do that. But you also don't want to die and waste your currencies, so you need to be properly tanky. That is where the budget begins to blow up. Easiest solution MB. As simple as that. Progenesis helps a ton for life builds. Those items are out of the budget for a majority of people.
Honestly literally any league starter can do this content comfortably on a shoestring budget. I guess with the exception of 8 mod deli/ sims etc (you dont need to do this and probably shouldnt if you are new, ev is literally worse than many other farming strategies).
To other person in this thread, stackers are way shittier than you seem to think. I have played several multi mirror stackers (int wander, acc stacker, armour stacker, aura spark) in the last 3 leagues. They all struggle with 8 mods before turbo high investment and just are not that strong per unit of currency. It's just fun to min max. If you are playing these builds on low investment you're coping and gimping the amount of fun you could be having imho.
Nice build! Do you use also damage recouping as life?
Nice videos, man. I would like to second the request if you could do a damage stacking video. I would be the most interested in a melee dmg stacking video myself. How does one get to those 100mil+ ranges...
As a softcore player with hundreds of deaths, this video was awesome - I really try to be tanky but it doesn't quite click for me what to do
All of these videos make me want to try a low-life build soon. Maybe even in Hardcore SSF? I've made it to maps a few times already at least
good video, ty!
A similar video for damage scaling would be the cherry on top
hey guys question: I'm curious to know why he sets up 3 curses (Assassin Mark, Despair, Ele Weakness), are the latter 2 just to proc Balance of terror? Also how does he get and poison immunity?
you should check on the new deep delve eye of winter arcanist brand build if the defences are suprising to you. it is by far the strongest build i have ever seen and played, besides delirium league builds.
What he needed was some source of gain flask charges on crit to counter that rare mod.
awesome video
awesome vid
Built similar on assassin, but cant get to 90 allres, so using mahuxotl shield, and lacking in regen
This the best path of exile video I’ve ever seen
Interesting video, but to me the takeaway is that flasks are op. They sort of always have been and it'll be interesting to see how PoE2 handles them. I'd be willing to bet that if this build was forced to have 75% resistances instead of 90% (150% more ele damage taken) it would still be tankier than a character that uses every defensive tool available besides flasks.
Flasks, when scaled to the extreme by flask effect, are indeed extremely strong. I think in PoE2 it's likely that flasks will be far more limited in both availability(types) and use(charges/charge gain) so much so that they become 'only use when needed' type buffs.
Everything is OP with Mirror tier items. Armour/Aura Stackers can get even higher EHP and damage this league and you don't need to pay attention to keep anything active, so I wouldn't necessary call flasks OP.
@@philippdrescher6012flasks are OP precisely because you do not need mirror-tier investment. Only things you need are the trash unique lightning coil, the pathfinder ascendancy, a taste of hate, sone eldritch implicits, and flask nodes on tree and you will be incredibly tanky.
@@philippdrescher6012my league starter was a 75% maxres pathfinder without progenesis but using the above. 30k phys max hit, 55k elemental max hit, 3.5k life per second from 1 life flask.
@@havz0r the amount of tattoos are very high. the max res cold are like a divine each on standard imagine its higher on hardcore.
Kinda weird that we have so overpowered Pathfinder, while at the same time we have Gladiator that is just complete joke in comparison.
Gladiator rework in 3.23 for sure! Copium
@@dreamcore_ggJust going through your older video catalog and saw this comment.
You should change your channel name to Nostradamus with those dead-on predictions lol
@@hansmatheson5976 🤣 I've been predicting gladiator rework for the last 4 or 5 leagues, I'll be right one day (it's happening in 3.25 100% not even copium surely)
Progenesis + Petrified Blood combo is nuts. How it managed to survive nerfs is unbelievable.
It can't be achieved easily. Ben has mirrors invested in his character to be this tanky.
I wonder how much overlap there is between this and Nerotox's 5000 delve Pathfinder...
Played a few builds like this, flask siphoner makes it feel pretty bad. Mahuxotle builds can overcap res and not be dependent on flasks.
piece of art !
Would this build still somehow work without the super impossible to get Original Sin?
just want to add the phys to elemental are all about "hits" in this case, so make sure to get phys dot immunity
How would you level up?? Go like Poison stuff? I was so aroused by this build that I forgot how to PoE...
Just log out! Hah, nice video
Amazing video! Following for more content 😊
Excellent video. Is this a really high budget build? Like 100+ div ?
Yeah, the two sceptres alone were mirrored so it's expensive for sure
~4 mirrors at the very least
90% max res and high phys conversion is carrying the most. Some builds have even trouble to achive 80% max res lol. I guess tatoos and pathfinder op.
Wow depth 1100+ wow. That is freaking impressive. It is a common super deep delve tactic to convert 96-100% Phys taken to elemental damage for much better mitigation of damage.
Why convert? It is "easy" (but expensive) in this league to reach 90/90/90 res. And you can not be overwhelmed with ele res. You can be affected by penetration, but that does almost not exist outside of a few bosses. While overwhelm is everywhere in comparison.
How does the build deal with physical dots? It seems like it has no physical mitigation since it converts it all to elemental, but this only applies to hits.
Ben had CB immunity, and I'm not sure what Pantheons he was using but he may have been using Ralakesh to help against bleeding
We've come along way from stacking life nodes lol
How are dots dealt with? so much of those layers had to do specifically with hits.
he has over 5k regen from flasks dots do nothing to him
How does he sustain his mana through the sapping life flask? He has EB so shouldn’t that drain his ES at about 1000/sec?
The mod interacts with mana directly, not ES - he has 0 mana, all of it is reserved
Did this survive 3.23 patch notes?
whats the music in the showcase?
insane tank
Pathfinder. Live by the flask, die by the flask
TLDR: have a shit ton of currency to put a build like this together
Just needs high evasion, dodge, block, instant ES regen or life on block, mind over matter, and fortify.
tbh it's too op how master surgeon gives you so much regen, like so cheap skill point wise
ah just 150 div ring, 40 div flask, 40 div jewels, 3div amulet, and plus few hundred divs of crafted rares
having 99% dr on any spell in the game, and 98% dr on anything else is crazy, competitive with the transcendence eternal damnation combo which also gets to similar dr
Its higher . I Play it on standard and im Unkillable. U dont even use petrified blood and flask.
@@jedrusnowak3317i think 99.99% damage reduction is possible with the loreweave+eternal damnation combo with transcendence. especially this league, since you can get quiet alot of flask effect. if you are using mageblood the flask drain rares arent an issue either
🤣"Defensive layering" -> completely dependent on flasks 😁
Solid run-down, decent Shamylan-twist at the end =D
why is he using elemental weakness and despair in his links? All of his phys is converted to cold and this is then converted to chaos by Original sin ring. The ring also say nearby chaos res of enemies is 0, therefore it shouldn't be able to change it via curses. What am I missing?
Have a look at the jewel he's using: The Balance of Terror
@@potwalthank, now it all makes perfect sense
Are these tattoos going to work next league?
It's always so insane to me how builds can achieve such absurd tank while also doing 100m+ dps, or vice versa
Mainly 100div ring lmao
anyone know how his supreme ego is actually eldritch battery?
oh Journey Tattoo of Makanui? you just have to roll it and hope? yikes
l try samting like this uber bosses shtill one shot
and uber maven still turn off regen+ puzzle faill will kill you
and for delve you can tank it easy to 1000 with just aegis+50 div spend
I was considering putting this build together, but I'm seeing that basically nobody is playing it on PoE Ninja. Why not? Is it just way more thank than is needed? Too expensive? Too mechanically intense for the average player?
This particular setup is very expensive, I'm not sure on exact costs but the sceptres alone are both mirrored
Is this still functional in 3.23 ?
Like. How expensive is that build?
bananas
isnt just tech that every1 uses nowadays for PF?
What a preposterous amount of tank!
Petrified Blood works even when you're not half health
The damage prevention mechanic from PB only functions for the bottom half of life
Where is the song from?
At the beginning of the video it's the Trial of the Ancestors OST
huh; always thought Makungas needed the adjacents ALLOCATED
Yeah the wording could probably be better, but they just require a max of one connection
this dude is nuts lol
Name song plz,bro !
yeah thats cool and everyting but its kinda out of reach for most players. the flask alone is like 250-300div (there isnt even one for sell offline atm)
even without it, its still like 60-80div or somehting for the 90max /amu setup.
sucks to be poor :3
ah can't beat the good olde rare mobs 😭
Friendly reminded for you guy, this character still die-able.
The last part is what’s stopped me from pulling the trigger on playing these builds. There have been so many insanely strong builds these last few leagues that rely on perma flasks w/o MB whether it’s low life with coruscating elixir or something like this build with triple ele flasks. Though it’s most probably not impactful at all outside delve since most map rares die instantly. Honestly not sure why I care so much since I’m a softcore andy😅
They can have perma flask up so... why not.
Mageblood is just a chase item. You don't need it. You just want it.
You can kill all bosses and even ubers with 2k EHP. And you can kill them with 3M DPS.
Attempting both at the same time, though, is not advised.
Ah I see, so he didn't go loreweave + eternal damnation + trascendence to give the slot to the new Defiance of Destiny amulet.
I thought you'd get tankier with said combo, but apparently that has been topped.
Although probably phys damage is more dangerous with this setup.
Just a bit of a nitpick here, Unnatural Instinct works by NOT allocating the passives. It GRANTS the bonuses of the passives in radius when they are not allocated. Allocation and granting are different functionally, and for the sake of the technicality of PoE mechanics, it's best we stick to using those terms to describe it. I understand this was likely a bit of a misspeak, but I am compelled to call it out and correct it anyways, again, for the sake of the technicality of PoE mechanics. PoE can be very confusing to grasp the mechanics and interactions of various modifiers, and mislabeling them will only add to the confusion.
Otherwise, great video!
To be fair I said exactly how UI works when I first introduced it, but I was trying to explain the line on Arohongui Makanga tattoos that restricts a maximum of one connection, so I'm not sure how I could have mentioned it, maybe 'way to gain those passives' rather than 'way to allocate those passives'. But I think in general, nobody is going to misunderstand what I'm saying in the video - this is similar to when people refer to 'Damage Taken As' as 'Conversion', two entirely different mechanics but everyone understands and knows what they meant.
Pathfinder exists.

Flasks for everyone else suck.
