I didn't know your content but i give it a shot and did your TR PF as leaguestarter and it was a blast. One the best and fastest Leaguestarters i ever had. Thank you. I will def try this build!!
Wow i actually watched the whole thing. Great guide! Think ill try this out once i get my deadeye to lv 98+ and farmed a bit more currency, seems like a neat build. Subbed
Psa to those who want to still play this build in 3.25. It still works. You need to play divine flesh from a xibaqua jewel(slotting it on the right side of the tree by the power charge node it will give you two nodes for +max chaos res), switch out the ultimatum shield for the font of thunder to convert your cold and fire to lightning, use a watchers eye for cold and fire taken as lightning, use a topaz flask, and use the light of meaning with chaos damage. The build still works well and im clearing wave 15 sim easily
@@PathofEvening yeah this was my all time favorite build thanks to you so i really wanted to try and make this work this league. Still have 100k phys max hit with frost shield and guard skills up
I just recently found this build. As usual I'm late to the party. I've tried everything this league (This is my 8th build) and I've finally found what I was looking for. Tanky, tanky, tanky. And has very solid dps. Can finally run t17s without getting one shot constantly. Thank you for this!
It is highly recommended to use Soul Ascension to farm uber BOSS, it is very cheap and powerful. It can provide amazing casting speed, which greatly saves the time of farm uber.
Another option if you want more suppression and/or flask improvement is an Impossible Escape in radius of Magebane. This gives you the opportunity to pick up Reflexes, Profane Chemistry, and Exceptional Performance. These together will give you 10% suppression, 7% increased max life, 30% increased life recovery from flasks, 1 life flask charge every 3 seconds, and 25% skill effect duration (plus some evasion stuff we don't really care about). Not bad if you're okay with giving up a jewel socket.
Yo amazing that was aexactly what i was looking for!!! I love your attitude. You just seem to have fun and enjoy different stuff. This league i couldnt stand all the fomo and negativiti because i just played what seemed fun to me and was having a blast. Keep it up glad to see you sticking around
Just made this build over the past day; I absolutely love it. One thing I can't stand though is making sure to hit haste and activate it; the damn energy bar just goes crazy and I miss it often. I'm actually considering running haste in the enlighten setup and run malevolence on the divine blessing; they're both the same reservation cost; the lack of move speed is kind of bothering me lol Outside of that I love the build; keep up the great work; thats 3 of your build guides I've used as a new player to great success and I plan on running toxic rain pathfinder as my league starter next time around; so thanks a ton.
wow youve made exactly the kinda video i needed to see where to go next with my PFFR. from the time i commented last on ur video, ive scaled the build up really well (def not as well as you tho) if you want to get even more tanky, a cwdt setup with frost shield makes the tankiness go really wild if you dont have progenesis. I think with progenesis frost shield is a lil overkill so replacing is probably worth it, when i get mine ill def replace that link with frostblink and faster casting like you. my next upgrade before prog is def going to be a watchers eye with good mods and awakened gems. to get poison chance up, poison chance jewels are super nice and so are poison chance on hit tattoos ( but they are int based and the cast speed wands usually have a high int requirement) but ya w/o prog, w/o awakened gems, and w/ crappy +2 w/ cast speed, im sorta blasting through most maps super easy (8 mod corrupted t16, w/ beyond, ritual, and high map mod effect), i tried a soulrend gem switch with returning projectiles, and thats super good for t16 clear but def not in anything harder. face tank regular elder/shaper and maven fights. i use malevelonce blessing instead of haste, cuz haste MS is just so nice all the time. but ya, i think ill def try to go and try do ubers for the first time with this build.
Excellent! Good thinking with the Frost Shield, that's a really good way to extract some defensive value from ES when using Mahuxotl's. Soulrend is pretty fun, and the cat animation on it is also great. It doesn't pack the punch that FR does, but it doesn't have the (normally huge) downside of eating a bunch of health with every cast, so pretty good for easy-breezy t16 maps!
@@PathofEvening I think that if you have a nimis, a soulrend gem swap would be pretty comparable in damage. But ya before nimis, soulrend is way outclassed in dmg by FR.
Isn't this done by DireGray in the last league? This build was actually further optimized by Tots YT (the fella who facetanked 6man maven uber shaper) already.
Thanks for this man! most helpful explanation on that shield so far, and I've been scratching my head with it for a long time; I have one potentially stupid question though, how are you making any use of the regen with vaal-pact running? Did something change over the last year, or am I just really stupid?
Nope, it's just confusing! Life Flasks count as recovery, which is a different stat from regen, because PoE needs to be as confusing as possible! This is why you can run No Regen maps with no issue, but Less Recovery Rate of Life/ES is build-disabling.
I really recomend using the eternal Life flask unstead of divine,gives more regen/s, and also use "Life recovery from flask affected by vitality" my version hit 7k Life recovery from flask. Also simulacrum would not be good with this build cause of this 3 points, 1- low aoe for fast clear on simulacrum; 2- u NEED be ailm imune since simu also apply sap, britle and scorch; 3- simulacrum has a mod wich remove our flasks charges Ps: u doing the dot dps wrong, we can't overlap more then 5 projs on the same mob, and pob calc dps with 7 projs because of GMP
Part 2: use a megalomaniac with enduring composure, since we are self hitting this ill Grants perma enduring charges, wich means Max effect of imortal call, also look for a boots with +1 enduring charge, the sec mod on the megalo could be born of chaos (+3 Max chaos res), septic speels (poison change ans cast speed), flow of Life(Max Life and dot), spiked conc (flask effec and alc genius to hi 90 fire res)
Part 3: just the less phys and chaos dam taken from doppelganger affect this build, since the mahuxtol says "have no Life regen" wich means we are not regen 10%Max Life/s The mod from your watcher eye "Life gain on hit by vitality doesnt affetc you too, petrified blood says "your Life CANNOT BE RAISED ABOVE LOW LIFE, others than Life flask". Plss pay more attention when u release a guide build with so much wrong infos
Don't really play HC, but the first thing that comes to mind would be skipping Annihilation's Approach in favor of rare boots from the start. The potential to get destroyed if something turns off your regen is too great.
Two big notes about this skill and video is that NOT ALL projectiles will hit 1 enemy. It's very hard to get 5 hits, i've tested this a lot using self poison and checking for self poison stacks. Usually it hits between 3-4, sometimes 5, but that was tested with a lot of inc. AoE from an Occultist power charge stacking version. Plus, your CANNOT recover life above 50% with Petrified Blood on besides from life flask. GMP is good for a very high number of mob count, but that can be swapped for Vile Toxins (green socket) or Efficacy/Cruelty (if you can get 21% from on hit damage). So any life gain on hit and recover life on kill/flask on use or Enduring Cry will not help in that regard. That's why a good second Watcher's eye mod is Inc. Life Recovery from Flasks while under Vitality, it's about 500-600 more life recovery. Also, i personally prefer getting ailment immunity from flasks with stormshroud (avoid being shocked + inc effect on Ruby Flask) and getting pseudo stun immunity from immutable force. For more damage, you can get +1 curse with 1 point on Infused and getting Punishment on either CWDT, self-cast or Arcanist brand (wich i think is the best as you can use lvl 20 with full effect with Despair too). Even though it seems to be DoT capped, more damage can be nice if you're doing T17s. You deal more damage to the bosses and some rares with resistances are annoying as well. edit: i highly recommend getting reduced curse effect from jewel implicits
There are some bigger bosses that you can absolutely hit with 5+ projectiles, but for humanoid-sized enemies, yeah, getting above 5 projectile hits per cast is near impossible.
@@michaelpiraino9530 i'm still finishing the crafts, but i use progenesis in my PF FR and it's very much worth it. Load up his PoB and untick Progenesis. It's like 46% more eHP. But you also have to compare with other trackers like max res, regen, HP and armour to try and figure out whats missing and whats easier to improve upon for your budget.
@@michaelpiraino9530 best sources of damage i can think of are wand (bought crafted at around 30 div), i have a circle of nostalgia with inc. chaos damage while herald of agony + herald effect with poisons deal damage faster (27%), 4th power charge with punishment, +2 gem lvl chest corruption(18%), perandus pact with chaos damage (11%) and good jewels with dot multi and poison deals damage faster (9%), as well as watcher's eye with poison deals damage faster (12%)
This looks really nice. Good job exile! Could you explain doppleganger vs cloak of flames? In general, in poe ninja dopplegangers seem to have more ehp than cloak, lacking phys hit pool for better chaos(elemental) mitigation. Reddit says its better against DoTs and cloak against hits. Is that so? Or are phys hits just less of a threat because of "extra % as ele damage" being the real danger while max phys hit at some point is just "good enough". Is flask sustain enough to not concider adorned+recoup setup? I see you do not use it, but Ive been told you pretty much do need two of three of defiance of destiny, lots of recoup and enduring life flask, better paired with bloodnotch to really recover all the shotgunning at t17. Didnt get to compare myself because cant do t17s yet.
Defiance is good, but you have to make up for a lot of lost power if you aren't running Replica Dragonfang. You lose +3 levels on your FR gem, Res Efficiency, and Reduced Stat requirements. It's a pretty big sacrifice for that defensive value. Recoup is a great stat with FR. You can definitely justify pathing up just one more point on the right-hand side to take the Circle of Life wheel. Cloak of Flame is a decent budget option, but Doppelganger's Guise is already fairly cheap and it offers substantially more damage reduction. Cloak is weaker for both max hit and damage reduction, and because it doesn't have Evasion, it will make hitting Suppression cap more difficult, too. Basically, Cloak is bait. Finally, Adorned is good, but it's very expensive and this build already easily hits the DoT cap and can face-tank Shaper Beams. You can definitely push the defenses even further and do some truly insane stuff in T17's, and a min-maxed Adorned setup will help with that, but it's not cheap!
This build already shifts and reduces a lot of the Phys damage taken, Cloak is good for a build that does not invest this much in Phys mitigation. Defiance is not good with this version that uses Petrified Blood, wich disables life gain above 50%. For that version you'd be better off with a Stasis Prison, but would need to make up for 15-20% more damage you get from Dragonfang. I've seen an adorned version on PoeNinja with Prison Stasis+defiance of destiny, wich seems pretty cool and should be more tanky than Petrified Blood+Doppelganger.
after finding like 5 differing builds i was down to play i found out all of them have multiple mirros worth of gear. so I think ill build this for now until i can farm said gear, kinda tired of my lacerate league starter
I’m just trying to make the initial version without progynesis and if I don’t press the life flask I die, can this be automated somehow, is it very inconvenient to press it once every 6 seconds?
Super stoked to see your video on this! Have mine setup like aero did in his video with stasis prison and it does not feel comfortable at all for me. The random one shots due to the lack of tankiness is really unfortunate. Looking forward to switching the build around to this :)
Excellent! This should definitely be a lot more budget-friendly. Recommending a unique as rare as Stasis Prison in a build guide is crazy. It's a cool item and recoup is a decent defensive mechanic, but there are 10 of them available in trade right now. Even if you expand out to items that have been listed in the last week but are offline now, that's maybe 30-40. Damage conversion and less damage taken mods from Doppelganger's Guise makes you much less susceptible to being one-shot. It can still happen, that's the nature of T17's right now, but for pretty everything other than super-painful T17 mod overlaps, this build can basically just eat the hit and keep fighting. Sirus' Desolation pools completely disable regen, so definitely don't play around with those, either.
I made a similar build concept on Assassin using a CoC setup, because I just really wanted to use mahuxotl and get FR going on a life-based build. I think that yours is objectively better in a few ways, which is REALLY impressive! Only thing I'm not sure about is the fact that Mahuxotl prevents life regeneration with the line "You have no Life Regeneration" Is this bypassed by Doppelganger's somehow?
Steel Trickster is strong. It's also WAY more expensive to get up to full strength. It's an attack build, so it's pretty good for easy mapping but super-duper janky to set up for killing tanky rares & bosses (put down totems, apply buffs, apply more buffs, use Focus, etc.). On the other hand, you can scale its damage way beyond the DoT cap, and Poison can never, ever do more than 38 million-ish DPS (after enemy mitigation). Ultimately, even with the DoT cap, Poison Pathfinder is absolutely burying all content, so how much more damage do you really need? As for tankiness, they're both pretty beefy!
@@PathofEvening Already starting set it up before prices going up. Also I play poets pen soulrend trickster rn, it feels more like a melee build because of the nimis. Can I get your opinion comparing these build and ur pf?
O no I just started putting together your toxic rain build D: Which do you think is better for T17's? Ok I have decided to try sell all the gear and build this, looks crazy!
Great video! im currently playing a cloak of flame variation, its absolutely insane. Was messing in PoB and greater volley seems to be a lot of damage over deadly ailments and void manipulation, any reason we dont use it?
It's hard to hit regular-sized targets with more than 5 projectiles. For big bosses, hitting with 6 or 7 is possible, but ramping up to the level that both GMP and GVolley puts out wouldn't actually hit most enemies.
@PathofEvening Okay but the dragonfangs flight is already way too expensive....any options that don't cost a huge amount? Also the same question, but about progenesis....that thing is more than the entire rest of the build combined. :(
Is there like an estimate cost to this build? This my first league assuming i have to buy everything. Got sick of animate guardian dying on my necro wanna try something new
This looks like something captain lance made a few leagues ago as a pvp idea. Are you still vulnerable to fire penetration though? IIRC lance solved most of the pen problem, but mentioned that generic pen still works against his build. To counter that he got some insane kind of regen. The only thing his build was vulnerable to was huge phys DOT.
Probably is, Lance is prolific. You can overcap Fire res to help with Exposure, but pen will get ya. Fwiw, eating Exarch balls with the rune debuff was no problem!
@@PathofEvening I was looking into this a little further, and it turns out you're wrong here actually. There is a way to get: "fire resistance cannot be penetrated" mod. It's new to me so don't ask me how but I *think* it was a grasping mail specific armour mod. So that would actually totally solve the pen issue entirely. I'll have to look some more, because I've never played these type of builds.
@@johnturtle6649 idk i can stand in 6 U. Shaper phys degens while he slams abd tank it on this build. Can also afk uber exarch ball phase no problem on this build. I dont think fire pen is a problem at all
checked PoB, no, not uber dot capped, would it be possible at like 1mirror budget? ( I have never played anything else than EA ele, RF or SRS guardian) -.-
bro i am new to poe is i am just understanding the mechanics, at what point or what are the core things to start using forbidden rite? because i am trying but i am killing myself x.x help me please
Chance to Avoid Poison and Debuffs Expire Faster both brick your damage. Reduced Effect of Auras, -% Max Res, Reduced Recovery Rate of Life/ES, and Reduced Flask charges interfere with your defense. Everything else is good to go!
Looks very promising if they don't nerf T17 so I'll need a build that can do it next league. Any suggestions on replacing Necro league content stuff (that jewel) with common stuff for next league?
Definitely something to consider. The life isn't mandatory, it's just a nice little bonus. Maybe they will put in some good alternatives next league, otherwise that's probably just a spot for a defensive unique jewel like Ancestral Vision.
How do you deal with DOT dmg? For Lightning and Cold DOT dmg, because one time I had a build with negative Lightning res and I just could not play against Harbinger's because one single hit of DOT lightning damage could One Hit me.
@@PathofEvening I see, I have been binged watching your content and you don't seem to press your flasks upon cooldown while explaining stuff like on this video.
How viable do you think it'd be to leaguestart this build? I'm not sure I wanna start a new character over this late in necropolis, but I really wanna try this out. Possible hiccups if tattoos don't come back in the next one?
Not able to see where the max chaos and fire res comes except from small cluster , divine flesh and ruby flask. I have only 83 max chaos and 84 max fire😢
Holy relic is a better all-rounder since it can do mapping and bossing well. This is overall a better bosser because of the damage and face tank nature but slower map clear.
Progenesis is the big cost of the build, and it's not 100% mandatory for it to function. Beyond that, figuring out how much you want to spend and where is up to you!
So i started building this thinking i heard the cost in the vid... But realised you get to the cost section but don't elaborate much at all on the full cost at all, just on one/two items. RIP. Probably would be a good idea to show the pre-investment vs post investment in the POB. (cos ome of the uniques seem to tie into making sure FR doesn't kill you - and they seem to cost a pretty penny too). Would be great to see better in-depth idea of what you can build UNTIL you get to the finished version. Will have to look elsewhere for this unfortunately.
If we state specific prices for the whole build in videos, then people who don't understand the economy will fluctuate start coming for us in the comments. Big no thanks on that.
@@PathofEvening Understand where you're coming from. I think maybe a ballpark of what you spent and an estimate to get into it would look like with the caveat of "at the time of the recording". (Lots of people add the caveat and that's understandable. The Market's always gonna move around and change)
Can you speak to the difference between Soulrend and Forbidden Rite? I have both gems, started with FR and moved over to Soulrend which anecdotally felt like way better damage and my pob also said it was significantly more. I've read through the descriptions of both gems and it feels like FR just does less since it's so hard to get more than about 4k health. All I can think is that there's something I don't understand about their scaling or interactions. I'd love to know more. The only diff in my build is that I have both a defiance of destiny and a replica dragonfang and I swap between them when stuff starts murdering me Also this build should come with a PSA that you can die in any encampment that isn't your hideout. I've died twc in mine encampment and in the graveyard through being inattentive with my boots on. I've had to learn to turn off my boots if I'm going to tab out.
Fair point on the boots! Soulrend is a combination direct damage/DoT skill, and it fires standard projectiles that pierce all targets. Forbidden Rite is actually more like a mortar, which isn't really a skill type that exists in PoE, but all of FR's projectiles hit the ground and detonate there, and they have no further interactions like forking, chaining, or piercing. The issue with Soulrend is that multiple projectiles from a single cast can't hit the same target twice, so you're going to get less single-target DPS without GMP, and even so, you're capping around the 10M DPS range with a poison setup like this. Forbidden Rite is different. It can hit most human-sized targets with about 5 projectiles each, potentially more for large enemies like the boss of Fortress Map. Because of this, it deals substantially more damage, despite dealing less damage per projectile.
@@PathofEvening I've been wondering about the diff for ages. I really appreciate you taking the time to explain. I was so confused I almost made a reddit post :)
Happy to help! They're both really fun skills that build really differently. The most important thing is that they each have Kitty Cat MTX, so they're great!
@@PathofEvening I know that the video is 4 months old. However since default youtube comment sorting is by "Top comments", every single one shown is also from 4 months ago when build did work. Since there is alot of bits and pieces that work together someone unpracticed in making builds like me (and probably many others) will go on a limb and try it out in SoK. As things stand that might be the case in future leagues aswell since there isn't any information visible at the first glance that build no longer works. Id love if you either pinned my comment or pinned information yourself that this build doesn't work currently because of vaal pact
@@mateuszpawelec3221this build does still work you just need to change some items. Im playing it with 100k phys max hit with frost shield up. Use divine flesh, font of thunder shield, a watchers eye converting cold and fire to lightning, doppelgänger, purity of lightning to hit 90 res, and full ailment avoidance. Im clearing wave 15 sim easily
Totems are an extremely different build. You would want to start as a Templar in most cases, so it's just completely different in the fundamental construction. You'd also be the third person on the PoE.ninja leaderboards in this league above level 93 playing FR Totems. This interaction was very strong in the first league it was released (Expedition), but was nerfed in the next league and hasn't been particularly good since then. As for mines, FR scales a lot of its damage based on the caster's health, and since mines count the mine as the source, rather than the player, you lose out on tons of possible damage scaling.
This build is absolutely hilarious and a lot of fun to play. Thank you for that :). Maybe you or others could help me with my build. I was able to get all the items but I can't even come close to your damage and I have another problem. I can't use all auras... I can either use all but Malevolence or if I use Malevolence I can't use Arctic Armour. It would be great if someone could help me :). I could share my pob link aswell.
There are a lot of possible causes. Make sure you're not comparing 1 Projectile to All Projectiles, have 100% Chance to Poison, check your gem level, support gem setup, weapon, amulet, etc.
When I have all of the auras running, i need to press my life flask to run vitality, but i cant run vitality + haste at the same time, its either one or the other. From what I can see, I have your item and gem setup, any thoughts?
Not got annihilation boots or pride but put I think everything else together 40/50 I use forbidden rite once it drains every bit health what main thing I’m missing
Finally figured out my mana issue I switched a jewel but left other keystone active which basically killed my mana sorted sort of only got 6 mana spare with all buffs on
i didnt really know if i heard correctly but can this be used without progenesis. i have a defiance of destiny and was thinking i could use that for now!
Yeah, it can. It's not as tanky, obviously, but it will function. You can use a regular Amethyst flask, or you can fix your Chaos res with gear and use a Quicksilver. The extra magic flask will allow you to cancel out curses, which is pretty good.
It will make you insanely tanky, and it has great synergy with Petrified Blood. The downside is that it will incur a big drop in damage, and make fitting in auras & hitting your Int requirement more difficult. It's a viable alternative!
Seems that this is quite carried by a Progenesis, I don't have one yet :( I'm so much squishier compared to before my respec from PF PConc with 100% phys as ele and Defiance ammy
@@PathofEvening It really didn't :D now that I have it I can skip Defiance. And I got lucky on first double corrupt of chest getting +2 Aoe and proj gems :D
Make sure you're counting at least 10 Wither stacks and that you're looking at all primary projectiles hitting, not just one. Also check the Calcs tab to be sure you're at 100% Chance to Poison!

Another option if you want more suppression and/or flask improvement is an Impossible Escape in radius of Magebane.

This build was actually further optimized by Tots YT (the fella who facetanked 6man maven uber shaper) already.
Never heard of them.
lawl bro listing two of the most obscure yotubers
Thanks for this man! most helpful explanation on that shield so far, and I've been scratching my head with it for a long time; I have one potentially stupid question though, how are you making any use of the regen with vaal-pact running? Did something change over the last year, or am I just really stupid?
Nope, it's just confusing! Life Flasks count as recovery, which is a different stat from regen, because PoE needs to be as confusing as possible!
This is why you can run No Regen maps with no issue, but Less Recovery Rate of Life/ES is build-disabling.
I really recomend using the eternal Life flask unstead of divine,gives more regen/s, and also use "Life recovery from flask affected by vitality" my version hit 7k Life recovery from flask.
Also simulacrum would not be good with this build cause of this 3 points, 1- low aoe for fast clear on simulacrum; 2- u NEED be ailm imune since simu also apply sap, britle and scorch; 3- simulacrum has a mod wich remove our flasks charges
Ps: u doing the dot dps wrong, we can't overlap more then 5 projs on the same mob, and pob calc dps with 7 projs because of GMP
Part 2: use a megalomaniac with enduring composure, since we are self hitting this ill Grants perma enduring charges, wich means Max effect of imortal call, also look for a boots with +1 enduring charge, the sec mod on the megalo could be born of chaos (+3 Max chaos res), septic speels (poison change ans cast speed), flow of Life(Max Life and dot), spiked conc (flask effec and alc genius to hi 90 fire res)
Part 3: just the less phys and chaos dam taken from doppelganger affect this build, since the mahuxtol says "have no Life regen" wich means we are not regen 10%Max Life/s
The mod from your watcher eye "Life gain on hit by vitality doesnt affetc you too, petrified blood says "your Life CANNOT BE RAISED ABOVE LOW LIFE, others than Life flask". Plss pay more attention when u release a guide build with so much wrong infos
Good feedback.
do u have pob if u play it rn?
@@jesusb4cki have some vídeos from my build if u look in my perfil u could find the pob there
Just a small oversight, the regen from the chest will not do anything because of Vaal Pact from the shield.
Yup!
Any major changes you'd make to this build for hc? I might give it a shot next league!
Don't really play HC, but the first thing that comes to mind would be skipping Annihilation's Approach in favor of rare boots from the start. The potential to get destroyed if something turns off your regen is too great.
Very nice video! I'm actually tempted to start yet another character...
Go for it!
It's pretty strong!
Two big notes about this skill and video is that NOT ALL projectiles will hit 1 enemy. It's very hard to get 5 hits, i've tested this a lot using self poison and checking for self poison stacks. Usually it hits between 3-4, sometimes 5, but that was tested with a lot of inc. AoE from an Occultist power charge stacking version. Plus, your CANNOT recover life above 50% with Petrified Blood on besides from life flask. GMP is good for a very high number of mob count, but that can be swapped for Vile Toxins (green socket) or Efficacy/Cruelty (if you can get 21% from on hit damage). So any life gain on hit and recover life on kill/flask on use or Enduring Cry will not help in that regard. That's why a good second Watcher's eye mod is Inc. Life Recovery from Flasks while under Vitality, it's about 500-600 more life recovery. Also, i personally prefer getting ailment immunity from flasks with stormshroud (avoid being shocked + inc effect on Ruby Flask) and getting pseudo stun immunity from immutable force. For more damage, you can get +1 curse with 1 point on Infused and getting Punishment on either CWDT, self-cast or Arcanist brand (wich i think is the best as you can use lvl 20 with full effect with Despair too).
Even though it seems to be DoT capped, more damage can be nice if you're doing T17s. You deal more damage to the bosses and some rares with resistances are annoying as well.
edit: i highly recommend getting reduced curse effect from jewel implicits
There are some bigger bosses that you can absolutely hit with 5+ projectiles, but for humanoid-sized enemies, yeah, getting above 5 projectile hits per cast is near impossible.
I’m at around 43 div saved up rn I have everything to make the function around 11mil damage but I’m still dying a lot is progensis worth it?
@@michaelpiraino9530 i'm still finishing the crafts, but i use progenesis in my PF FR and it's very much worth it. Load up his PoB and untick Progenesis. It's like 46% more eHP. But you also have to compare with other trackers like max res, regen, HP and armour to try and figure out whats missing and whats easier to improve upon for your budget.
@@xXMaukiorXxbet now my damage is kinda lacking idk what to do to up it
@@michaelpiraino9530 best sources of damage i can think of are wand (bought crafted at around 30 div), i have a circle of nostalgia with inc. chaos damage while herald of agony + herald effect with poisons deal damage faster (27%), 4th power charge with punishment, +2 gem lvl chest corruption(18%), perandus pact with chaos damage (11%) and good jewels with dot multi and poison deals damage faster (9%), as well as watcher's eye with poison deals damage faster (12%)
Does this build still work in 3.25?
Nope. Vaal Pact was reworked and no caster builds work with Mahuxotl's Machination anymore.
This looks really nice. Good job exile!
Could you explain doppleganger vs cloak of flames? In general, in poe ninja dopplegangers seem to have more ehp than cloak, lacking phys hit pool for better chaos(elemental) mitigation. Reddit says its better against DoTs and cloak against hits. Is that so? Or are phys hits just less of a threat because of "extra % as ele damage" being the real danger while max phys hit at some point is just "good enough".
Is flask sustain enough to not concider adorned+recoup setup? I see you do not use it, but Ive been told you pretty much do need two of three of defiance of destiny, lots of recoup and enduring life flask, better paired with bloodnotch to really recover all the shotgunning at t17. Didnt get to compare myself because cant do t17s yet.
Defiance is good, but you have to make up for a lot of lost power if you aren't running Replica Dragonfang. You lose +3 levels on your FR gem, Res Efficiency, and Reduced Stat requirements. It's a pretty big sacrifice for that defensive value.
Recoup is a great stat with FR. You can definitely justify pathing up just one more point on the right-hand side to take the Circle of Life wheel.
Cloak of Flame is a decent budget option, but Doppelganger's Guise is already fairly cheap and it offers substantially more damage reduction. Cloak is weaker for both max hit and damage reduction, and because it doesn't have Evasion, it will make hitting Suppression cap more difficult, too. Basically, Cloak is bait.
Finally, Adorned is good, but it's very expensive and this build already easily hits the DoT cap and can face-tank Shaper Beams. You can definitely push the defenses even further and do some truly insane stuff in T17's, and a min-maxed Adorned setup will help with that, but it's not cheap!
This build already shifts and reduces a lot of the Phys damage taken, Cloak is good for a build that does not invest this much in Phys mitigation. Defiance is not good with this version that uses Petrified Blood, wich disables life gain above 50%. For that version you'd be better off with a Stasis Prison, but would need to make up for 15-20% more damage you get from Dragonfang. I've seen an adorned version on PoeNinja with Prison Stasis+defiance of destiny, wich seems pretty cool and should be more tanky than Petrified Blood+Doppelganger.
wait but in the pob the build is different than the one you're showing in the game. You could get dot cap with that wand and boots?? what
It's the same setup, what are you talking about?
after finding like 5 differing builds i was down to play i found out all of them have multiple mirros worth of gear. so I think ill build this for now until i can farm said gear, kinda tired of my lacerate league starter
This build no longer works in 3.25.
I’m just trying to make the initial version without progynesis and if I don’t press the life flask I die, can this be automated somehow, is it very inconvenient to press it once every 6 seconds?
Nope.
how come im not regenerating life when i use a flask or get hit?
Vaal Pact was changed.
Super stoked to see your video on this! Have mine setup like aero did in his video with stasis prison and it does not feel comfortable at all for me. The random one shots due to the lack of tankiness is really unfortunate. Looking forward to switching the build around to this :)
Excellent! This should definitely be a lot more budget-friendly.
Recommending a unique as rare as Stasis Prison in a build guide is crazy. It's a cool item and recoup is a decent defensive mechanic, but there are 10 of them available in trade right now. Even if you expand out to items that have been listed in the last week but are offline now, that's maybe 30-40.
Damage conversion and less damage taken mods from Doppelganger's Guise makes you much less susceptible to being one-shot. It can still happen, that's the nature of T17's right now, but for pretty everything other than super-painful T17 mod overlaps, this build can basically just eat the hit and keep fighting.
Sirus' Desolation pools completely disable regen, so definitely don't play around with those, either.
@@PathofEvening 11 replica dragonfangs in trade right now
I made a similar build concept on Assassin using a CoC setup, because I just really wanted to use mahuxotl and get FR going on a life-based build.
I think that yours is objectively better in a few ways, which is REALLY impressive!
Only thing I'm not sure about is the fact that Mahuxotl prevents life regeneration with the line "You have no Life Regeneration"
Is this bypassed by Doppelganger's somehow?
Glad to hear it.
As for Doppelganger's last line, nope, just a mistake here. Too many moving parts!
Hello, I really like your videos. especially buid toxicrain, can you make a video about toxicrain running 30 waves simula?

www.youtube.com/@PathofEvening/search?query=toxic%20rain
Great content! Could you please make a video about leaguestarting this for 3.25? I mean more details about leveling it as well as initial gearing.
Well talk about it, but Mahuxotl builds have to be attack-based now due to the Vaal Pact change.
This isn't a league start build.
eh.. fancy corrupts is really good, but nothing i'd consider building around or being affordable until the build already works perfectly anyways
Yup.
I may have missed it in the video - what type of flask could I use in place of Progenesis until I have the funds for one?
Regular Amethyst flask works fine.
Looks great. What are the downsides of this build?
The main downsides are the number of keybinds, having to hit life flask frequently, and the cost of startup.
@@PathofEvening Could you please update for 3.25? I'd really like to play
looks good
thinking about respec spleeting steel trickster but this one looks cracked
what's feel more solid, tankier?
Steel Trickster is strong. It's also WAY more expensive to get up to full strength. It's an attack build, so it's pretty good for easy mapping but super-duper janky to set up for killing tanky rares & bosses (put down totems, apply buffs, apply more buffs, use Focus, etc.).
On the other hand, you can scale its damage way beyond the DoT cap, and Poison can never, ever do more than 38 million-ish DPS (after enemy mitigation). Ultimately, even with the DoT cap, Poison Pathfinder is absolutely burying all content, so how much more damage do you really need?
As for tankiness, they're both pretty beefy!
@@PathofEvening Already starting set it up before prices going up.
Also I play poets pen soulrend trickster rn, it feels more like a melee build because of the nimis.
Can I get your opinion comparing these build and ur pf?
Haven't played PP SR Trickster at all, so can't really compare.
O no I just started putting together your toxic rain build D: Which do you think is better for T17's?
Ok I have decided to try sell all the gear and build this, looks crazy!
This one for sure because it's tankier and does more damage.
@@PathofEvening Thanks! Super keen
Great video! im currently playing a cloak of flame variation, its absolutely insane.
Was messing in PoB and greater volley seems to be a lot of damage over deadly ailments and void manipulation, any reason we dont use it?
It's hard to hit regular-sized targets with more than 5 projectiles. For big bosses, hitting with 6 or 7 is possible, but ramping up to the level that both GMP and GVolley puts out wouldn't actually hit most enemies.
What's that aura mtx, the yellow one that makes you look like a flower that keeps popping every little bit?
Angelic Immortal Call
For such a tanky build, not being able to run half of the map mods is tough

A +2 neck with DoT Multi is an option, but that will be more expensive.
@PathofEvening Okay but the dragonfangs flight is already way too expensive....any options that don't cost a huge amount? Also the same question, but about progenesis....that thing is more than the entire rest of the build combined. :(
You should be able to afford 30div after you farm for a while.
@ghoste000 Its 60 divs and you're not helping by being a douche.
Is there like an estimate cost to this build? This my first league assuming i have to buy everything. Got sick of animate guardian dying on my necro wanna try something new
Not really. Build prices fluctuate pretty heavily, especially late into a league like this one.
@@PathofEvening ok thanks
Over 50 divines. And the build doesn't work anymore anyway.
This looks like something captain lance made a few leagues ago as a pvp idea. Are you still vulnerable to fire penetration though? IIRC lance solved most of the pen problem, but mentioned that generic pen still works against his build. To counter that he got some insane kind of regen. The only thing his build was vulnerable to was huge phys DOT.
Probably is, Lance is prolific. You can overcap Fire res to help with Exposure, but pen will get ya. Fwiw, eating Exarch balls with the rune debuff was no problem!
@@PathofEvening I was looking into this a little further, and it turns out you're wrong here actually. There is a way to get: "fire resistance cannot be penetrated" mod. It's new to me so don't ask me how but I *think* it was a grasping mail specific armour mod. So that would actually totally solve the pen issue entirely. I'll have to look some more, because I've never played these type of builds.

question for the weapon, would it be better to get 16% cast speed with 10% chance to gain arcane surge be better than possibly 21% cast speed?
Maybe. You'd need to put it into PoB and compare for yourself.
Hey IV used bane I think, to proc lvl 21 curses, didn't really notice the less curse effect over cwdt. Check it out.

Playing a Caustic Arrow/Toxic Rain setup and transitioning into this once you have the gear is a safe approach.
What mapmods do we reroll on this build, that are very hard or pure suicide? Thanks for the build!
Chance to Avoid Poison and Debuffs Expire Faster both brick your damage.
Reduced Effect of Auras, -% Max Res, Reduced Recovery Rate of Life/ES, and Reduced Flask charges interfere with your defense.

uber dot capped? cost?

Looks very promising if they don't nerf T17 so I'll need a build that can do it next league. Any suggestions on replacing Necro league content stuff (that jewel) with common stuff for next league?
Definitely something to consider. The life isn't mandatory, it's just a nice little bonus.
Maybe they will put in some good alternatives next league, otherwise that's probably just a spot for a defensive unique jewel like Ancestral Vision.
Ouch... my pocket is hurting... this build got so expensive now hahaha
100D is still not enought to cover it without progenesis
Yeah, lower-pop leagues like this one can have some wild price fluctuations.
I love mahuxotl's PF but I prefer Reap instead of FR
Reap's okay. The shape of it takes some getting used to.
How do you deal with DOT dmg? For Lightning and Cold DOT dmg, because one time I had a build with negative Lightning res and I just could not play against Harbinger's because one single hit of DOT lightning damage could One Hit me.
You convert all elemental damage taken into Fire or Chaos. The +3k life/sec of regen completely erases all DoT damage.

Indeed
do i have to consistently press the life flask for the build to work?
Yes.
what would be the total cost of the build approximatly? I have like 200d but can't decide between this build or holy relic
Holy relic is a better all-rounder since it can do mapping and bossing well. This is overall a better bosser because of the damage and face tank nature but slower map clear.
Progenesis is the big cost of the build, and it's not 100% mandatory for it to function. Beyond that, figuring out how much you want to spend and where is up to you!
why double damage lethal pride? according to wiki, it does nothing for poison
Not using a double damage lethal pride. What are you talking about?
when i put the shield my ES becomes 0 ...how to solve this ?
Life flask.
So i started building this thinking i heard the cost in the vid... But realised you get to the cost section but don't elaborate much at all on the full cost at all, just on one/two items. RIP. Probably would be a good idea to show the pre-investment vs post investment in the POB. (cos ome of the uniques seem to tie into making sure FR doesn't kill you - and they seem to cost a pretty penny too). Would be great to see better in-depth idea of what you can build UNTIL you get to the finished version. Will have to look elsewhere for this unfortunately.
If we state specific prices for the whole build in videos, then people who don't understand the economy will fluctuate start coming for us in the comments. Big no thanks on that.
@@PathofEvening Understand where you're coming from. I think maybe a ballpark of what you spent and an estimate to get into it would look like with the caveat of "at the time of the recording". (Lots of people add the caveat and that's understandable. The Market's always gonna move around and change)
Can you speak to the difference between Soulrend and Forbidden Rite? I have both gems, started with FR and moved over to Soulrend which anecdotally felt like way better damage and my pob also said it was significantly more. I've read through the descriptions of both gems and it feels like FR just does less since it's so hard to get more than about 4k health. All I can think is that there's something I don't understand about their scaling or interactions. I'd love to know more. The only diff in my build is that I have both a defiance of destiny and a replica dragonfang and I swap between them when stuff starts murdering me
Also this build should come with a PSA that you can die in any encampment that isn't your hideout. I've died twc in mine encampment and in the graveyard through being inattentive with my boots on. I've had to learn to turn off my boots if I'm going to tab out.
Fair point on the boots!
Soulrend is a combination direct damage/DoT skill, and it fires standard projectiles that pierce all targets. Forbidden Rite is actually more like a mortar, which isn't really a skill type that exists in PoE, but all of FR's projectiles hit the ground and detonate there, and they have no further interactions like forking, chaining, or piercing.
The issue with Soulrend is that multiple projectiles from a single cast can't hit the same target twice, so you're going to get less single-target DPS without GMP, and even so, you're capping around the 10M DPS range with a poison setup like this.
Forbidden Rite is different. It can hit most human-sized targets with about 5 projectiles each, potentially more for large enemies like the boss of Fortress Map. Because of this, it deals substantially more damage, despite dealing less damage per projectile.
@@PathofEvening I've been wondering about the diff for ages. I really appreciate you taking the time to explain. I was so confused I almost made a reddit post :)
Happy to help! They're both really fun skills that build really differently. The most important thing is that they each have Kitty Cat MTX, so they're great!

Probably missed something in the guide. We don't review builds right now, so can only recommend rewatching for missed info.
Is it somehow possible to make a mine or totem version of it? Would it break interactions?
Totems are an extremely different build. You would want to start as a Templar in most cases, so it's just completely different in the fundamental construction. You'd also be the third person on the PoE.ninja leaderboards in this league above level 93 playing FR Totems. This interaction was very strong in the first league it was released (Expedition), but was nerfed in the next league and hasn't been particularly good since then.
As for mines, FR scales a lot of its damage based on the caster's health, and since mines count the mine as the source, rather than the player, you lose out on tons of possible damage scaling.
@@PathofEvening thanks for the detailed answer. Much appreciated ❤️
This build is absolutely hilarious and a lot of fun to play. Thank you for that :).

I could share my pob link aswell.
Ok i found the aura problem ^^... i used Vitality on a higher lvl. But i still dont know why im doing only 5m dps and u 35?
There are a lot of possible causes. Make sure you're not comparing 1 Projectile to All Projectiles, have 100% Chance to Poison, check your gem level, support gem setup, weapon, amulet, etc.

i didnt really know if i heard correctly but can this be used without progenesis. i have a defiance of destiny and was thinking i could use that for now!
Yeah, it can. It's not as tanky, obviously, but it will function. You can use a regular Amethyst flask, or you can fix your Chaos res with gear and use a Quicksilver. The extra magic flask will allow you to cancel out curses, which is pretty good.
@@PathofEvening yeah i thought that as well. but what are your thoughts on defiance of destiny on this build
It will make you insanely tanky, and it has great synergy with Petrified Blood. The downside is that it will incur a big drop in damage, and make fitting in auras & hitting your Int requirement more difficult. It's a viable alternative!

@@PathofEvening I mean you can see it running as he is explaining his gear, so it's quite impressive if he can hit if every few seconds for an hour while explaining gear/gems/pob.
Yes, Llarold is impressive. Thank you for noticing!
nothing wrong with a good macro, fuck GGG forcing RSI onto people
Excelent video, bravo!
I'm also a PF enthusiast and I quickly switched my go-to reference of PF builds from other channels to you. Thank you a lot for the amaizing ideas!
Can I suggest a build for you to look into next? Poison Lightning Strike PF. The general archetype is pretty similar to the one youre running right now, so I think you will enjoy it.
