This is a leaguestart friendly build. I have done this build in the 10 day mayhem event with barely the midrange set up, got the build to lvl 90 and killed some bosses. The leaguestart pob is available on poe-vault and there's a gearing section as well for the people who don't want to import a pastebin. www.poe-vault.com/guides/spectral-shield-throw-raider-gearing
I will make sure that videos in the future will mention the starter gear and show cards for it so there's less confusion.
A question if you allow: how punishing can be if someone tries to just level with SST? Is too hard? Did you tried? I know some people who rather do acts slower just to avoid the switch after, so maybe is something to mention.
Not viable, at least not for the investment in new league to actually worth the time and currency, have this one in standard on a 2 mirror investment and i can guarantee it's shit compared with other builds with same investment
@@CorvinCostinus It's completely viable. With far less than 2 mirror investment. omegalul.
The video thumbnail is great! The assembly turned out to be interesting ^_^
Gotta love all the opinionated “experts” that search UA-cam for starter builds. I can confirm this is a very solid starter and one of the most fun builds I’ve played. It has crazy scaling potential. Great video!
Haven't played since Lake and was bummed to learn Pois Conc was gutted.... loving SST so far, and what a bonus to get to level as something I already enjoyed! Thanks for a comprehensive guide!!
3.23
Leaguestarted with RoA (poisonous concoction was bugged at launch) and used my first batch of currency to convert into this build. Ignoring the massive tree change I had to do due to the bug, this build is very cheap to get going! I even have a perfectly rolled Emperor's Vigilance 🎉
Thank you for updating this guide!
i have been struggling really badly with this build, mainly because im not getting lucky with my drops nor the currency :(
I love these guides, thank you! This is my favourite build now!
I will play it ! I hope the transition goes smoothly and SST doesn't require 10 divine day 2 to be enjoyable because I don't like PConc that much but a shield thrower gotta do what a shield thrower gotta do. Thanks for the sweet build and gear explanation.
Raider + cold + ranged. You bleep, i'm in! Loved SST the last time it was big and really got turned off from it when they tripple hit it with nerfs.. gonna give it another go with your guide.
Instantly hooked on this build, finally something different! Yoinking this build for next league start 100% and even trying it out in the next event :) Thankypu Vel
Haven't played SST since Expedition (RIP bleed), I think this is my 3.21 build. Thanks!
I can confirm this build is amazing, it is by far my favourite build and it can easily clear any content in the game! You WILL sometimes get randomly oneshot and some eldritch altars can brick your map (projectiles fire in random directions and ailment reflect until you get 100% avoid) but it is genuinely one of the smoothest builds to play out there so give it a try :)
LOL the first time I took the proj firing in random directions I was just dying with laughter
@@Velyna Does it really brick the map though? Couldn't you just go into melee range so the direction of the projectiles matters much less?
@@Adama.1 that's exactly what I did, it get's a little scary being all up in their face but that's what the 25k armour is for 🙂
@@Velyna same with CoC FR - random projectiles are weirdly funny
Great video! Love the off meta content. I am fairly new to end game POE so I appreciate the crafting explanation. I still need help lol but I got the important points. 👍
liking your starters choices, thanks for sharing
thanks for making this video. I watched all the way at the end and seen you liked comments. I barely play PoE but my friends keep wanting me to try it. This will be the build i try. There was some information that was confused as a completely new players with terms like the whole transition required part. Once i heard that part i was very confused, but hope to understand when i am actually playing. I have played PoE but i stop a lot because so much information. but for the most part... the guide is perfect, and thank you for making this video. I played a lot of Grim Dawn and love the shield builds in that game. Something about bouncing a shield off enemies is so fun!
I made a video for transitioning the build as well so it should help you feel comfortable going from midrange to end gear.
I'll take this in consideration for my league start, thanks Vel!
I think i found my league start! Now imagine farming hallway style maps so those bounces are EXTRA CRAZY
dammit. i was gonna start with bfbb... then switched to poison seismic trap... but NOWWWW i found YOU. My all time favorite was Bleed SST couple leagues ago. Now I found you with my favorite skill for a new league! Thank you so much for the guide!!
Was thinking I'd play CF or RF but now I've seen this I really like it. I'm going to give this some strong consideration over the next few days.
3:18 kitten gets up and lays down on her arm, the cuttest thing I've seen today! It deserves to give the build a try.
Thanks vel, I think I am going to give this one a go. SST & Raider together sounds so smooth.
Great guide Velyna 😊 really liked the crafting section, I tried the trickster varient last league and it was super smooth even without ashes, got me my first uber elder kill.
Really satisfying gameplay. Thanks for the build, love your vids!
Thanks dude!
This is a well rounded beast and I was going to test sst during November events to see if it's comfortable for me and if I could potentially play it next league, now that problem is that this is an end game version and even though you pretty much explained how to craft every piece I wouldn't go for a league starter that requires things like ashes/omni/aegis aurora or whatever doesn't normally drop or can be traded in the first 2 weeks or so. As an average player I like to stick with a 5div build and see how things go from there (making a 2nd one for things that my starter cannot do or min-max). Overall I really appreciate the time some ppl put into making these fantastic builds and I hope more and more ppl will come back on poe this league to make trading more possible as it was in the past. These are a lot of good off-meta builds and this could be one of them , as any trap/mine starter, easy to scale with low investment,etc.
The leaguestart for this build is so cheap and I ended up running it to lvl 90 in the mayhem event, with nothing gear. No helm or ashes, using hrimnors, a scavea and the shield. I don't think I even had a seething fury in before the event was over.
You can make an early version of this build for 1 div that will still zoom and get your first few watchstones. You don't need ashes or the crafted helmet. You can use scaeva or twilight unique swords, rare shield (or twilight temple shields), normal 5/6 link, and +1 rare amulets.
I tried playing SST Trickster last league (until i rage quit like so many others) but this is going to be my league start.
Thanks for the video
i played SC Trickster and "trans" into SST - was sooo much better... but the Raider seems to fit way better then the Trickster in my opinion
This build looks really fun and you explain it well. I might play this
I did end up playing this and will do so again in 3.21!
@@Adama.1 how it's going?
My first uber elder kill was in Legion with a cold conversion SST deadeye. The build is just so much fun to play and remains one of my favorites.
Out of all the times I played this build, it never occured to me to use a crafted helmet. Maybe its because I haven't done this build since searing/eater implicits which are high value on chests (we used to roll + crit chance on chest). That level 23 to 24 mark is pretty big as well as you gain roughly 16% more damage scaling.
Love how you explained everything. Have played SST before with cold conversion and it was a blast. I'll probably start with new volcanic fissure gem to see how that works. If i die, maybe i switch to this. Thanks
Thanks for this guide! i'll totally take this at my go-to build for the league :)
Will start PConc and farm up the gear for this one for sure. Gameplay looks real fun, great vid peepoCute
It's really look great, can do all content, upgrades to aim for and most importantly, i never tried before. The best part is people complaining and not trying this build, make things easier and cheaper lol.
Noo! I thought I picked my starter already but this looks like so much fun!
i'll consider it! played SST when it first came out, but a lot has happened since then
thank you for sharing this guide. Have a nice day
Very good guide. This is going to be my league start.
before being sceptical, thanks for this guide! happy to see that u are uptading things and it will help players!
now the sceptical part
take a grain of salt before follow the guide
if u dont know nothing about SST and damage conversion or how to survive without uniques while farming chaos/divines, make this as your second character.
for sure SST still a viable skill, but has tons of limitations in gear to progress
the important start point is obtain hrimsorrow asap and keep upgrading your shield, until u have the BIS unique shield
i recommend do it in a trade envoryment only, due the necessity of dmg conversion and scarcity of items in SSF, like seeting fury unique jewel, and emperor vigilance shiled unique shield, u will feel a lilte bad playing without those.
some items, like the dmg conversion watchers eye wont be avaliable too early and when it becomes tradeable, will be expensive, take this in consideration too
you always can verity poeninja and poe antiquary for prices for most items, while planning your league start
poe-vault guide is currently outdated, remember to check 3.20 patch notes, for changes like the removal of the replica conquerors efficiency
pob link is secured by a discord-wall, so consider join her discord to have the link for the pob import
You can find the guides all on poe-vault with all the pobs there as well. I make a leaguestart pob with the most basic of items that should have no issue carrying you in early maps, then a midrange for when you've made a bit of money from those maps, then endgame for when you want to do max dmg. Also, I don't use a dmg-converted watchers eye. I use hrimburns until I get myself betrayal gloves with 35% cold converted and then I craft on the remaining 25% on the gloves with eldritch implicits and use the 40% phy converted to cold mastery. The biggest limitation to the gear is getting your BIS shield. It is absolutely possible.
I leveled SST Glad in Mayhem event. I leveled the entire thing SST. I took Reckoning, Riposte, and vengeance, then I used corrupting blood to do most of the damage and SST to spread it around till higher levels when no longer needed CF.
hey velyna really nice guide , thank you.
Thanks a lot. Very good guide.
Actualy interesting build, thank you
Will consider going it
Damn was lookinjg for a league starter thanks!
Thanks for the guide!
6:20 id recommend to use t4 aisling instead of an veiled chaos, its a bit more expensive but veiled chaos has the chance to add 3 prefixes which would require you to yolo annul if you dont hit it.
Is really fun to play, this build thanks for the end-game guide c:
Haiz... So many possibilities and so little time to play XD.
I've been eyeing SST for a long time now (ever since it was buffed like... 4 leagues ago? (I know it was nerfed afterwards)) but I also really wanna try boneshatter out and cold dot seems like a really nice and comfy style... Definetely keeping this one in the bag. Nice vid 👍
Sporeguard is another good body armour choice, 10% of non-chaos as extra chaos, some chaos res/%life/armour and ES, enemies on the ground it creates do less damage and it has an annoint slot. Something to consider if you don't want to craft a rare armour.
def considering this for leaguestart
pretty cool. I tried this with ice bite and an evasion/es shield a few patches ago, and it wasnt bad just thrown together. thanks for the tips on the helm o7
Subbed, thanks! This is a very viable option to Leaguestart with
Played a few leagues ago, being able to use shield charge is the best QOL of any build
Oh shield charge has such great synergy with this build. Just charge in and have packs shatter. One thing to note though it doesn't wear the woke ele dmg with weapons like SST does so it does not get reflect immune. I can't tell you how many times I reflected charged myself into a pack 😂
That’s gonna be my leaguestart. Thanks 🥴
Looks fun, i was considering it, but i totally suck at crafting and never really bothered with it
Build looks really interesting but it would go a long way if you could showcase the build without endgame items and go over how to level it and transition into cold conversion. A detailed pob would suffice 😅
Im testing your ice trap build. Good stuff.
Not gonna lie im super excited to try out the New Vaal Skills (especially vaal FS) but this def looks like a good comfortable starter build to farm out the stuff i need to make those new skills/builds work
Looks fun. Will start out with this build on ssf
holy shiet mah fav build 3.15 is back ! 🥺
Vel, get onslaught in normal lab and respec to your frenzy tree in uber lab IMO. +20% move speed early on? Pretty poggo!
Also, quickstep + inveterate + quartz infusion = 100% spell suppress without any item assistance.
I'll be doing this build then and I'll put PF Poison Conc as backup.
Ily btw, I was just thinking of this build too lol
thank you so much
I play SST every league, whether I start it or roll it as a 8th character (help). You can easily start this as SST and not go the pconc route. If you get a emp vigiliance it's basically ez mode until yellow/early reds, especially with seething fury. Alternate to Emp V, you can use rare shields until you hit twilight maps and get the freeze immune shield, you can then buy the fire shield and combine them to make the magnus which is excellent until you get emp v (SSF friendly). Getting to ashes and phantasmal SST is the most pain probably so in the meantime its worth running standard 6 link with cold pen, inspiration, etc... yoke of suffering is a big damage boost, and heat shiver can hold you over until you craft the endgame helmet. Also getting a pair of alva gloves with "increased damage with hits against chilled enemies" to then craft the conversion onto is huge.
Just to add to this, you can go precise technique prior to even getting seething or any shield that has ES on it, as long as you take the precision mastery and the dex = 3 acc mastery to stay above your max health.
Well I went the pcoc route because we don't get SST until act 3 and I figured how good of a shield can you find so I just waited, but yeah if you can get that emperor's vigilance on at lvl 46 you will cruse through.
@@Velyna going pconc route is still solid even if you transition to SST at act 3, (helix may even be good still because you're still using all of the same ele dmg nodes etc...) You can definitely find solid rares or use essence to craft them along the way. Or use helix/pconc until you find/buy EV, then transition. I would rush to heist on pcon/whatever/helix, then farm for or farm currency in endless heist for EV, then transition immediately and sail to maps.
May play it. My luck with essences crafting is terrible. Usually a great way for me to exit myself from the league early.
cool build. thx for the guide
nice build crafting!
found this guide duo to another source, its realy a shame it isnt ssf viable because i realy love sst , had only good experience with it in the past wehn i was a trade player but nowadays i enjoy ssf mor but real good work, realy nice to see someone making it popular again, love it, if you however to decide to make a ssf version let me know cuz i love sst
Dank build!
Fair play putting emphasis on the aiming part being a con.
real fun to play and feels good for sanctum, incredible for heist. sadly it seems to absolutely suck at expedition and is only "meh" on breach/legion in the early-mid phase (before getting helmet+ashes)
Say it with me... con-coc-tion, concoction
coction
You forgot to add "Tornado" gem. It add ~50% more damage to single target due to shard burst
Probably not gonna be my league starter since i just wanna get into flicker strike asap, but if i run into a wall (or if flicker throws me into a random ditch, who knows) then this Captain Wraeclast build looks like a ton of fun!!!
Doryani's Catalyst is waaaayyy better than Scaeva
The guide is perfect btw having lot of fun tankin 'n' shattering ❤❤
My LS heart broke with the patch notes, but I'm glad I found something. I wonder if Raider is better than Trickster though
Hi Velyna. I appreciate a lot your effort for showing us a fun, solid and off meta league starter, but all your gear in the showcase you are doing is totally endgame. Is ok showing us the final progression but your aren't showing how the build works without endgame gear, also you aren't showing good league starter gear options for your build (at least not in this video). Could you make a video showing us how league start this build really is? I really would love to try it because I've never did cold conversion SST. Ty so much for read me
Yeah after putting out this video I thought snap I really should have made cards for the league start gear to place beside the endgame gear at the very least. You can even find footage of me playing it in the mayhem event with basically nothing on. I played it up to lvl 90 with the shield a scaeva and I think the jewel.
@@Velyna I think you should make at least a short video showing the truly gear at league start, what you are aiming and so, because everyone here that need help on piking a league starter, really need that information. I'm a veteran poe player and maybe I can figure out how make this work, but my commentary was more about helping all the newbie ppl here and for helping you with your content, because sometimes ppl get very rude against streamers when they fail their league start, how happened with fyregrass (with his tornado shot occultist). Ty so much for read me again
I do agree with the league start gear progression. But im not sure its worth the work for a video.
Super helpful would be a notes section in pob and even an early game leveling tree + gear set. And updating pob + description link for this.
@@pauldudley1273 oh course it's worth. Right now it's just a bait video. There are a lot of people who don't know how to progress with the builds.
@@FriendWontTellYou not having enough detail isn’t exactly the same as “bait”
Not sure if Iam gonna leaguestart with that, but maybe as 2nd character! :)
RF is just to nice!
Going to give this a go. No idea how the hell you craft this stuff though!
Thanks for the video, love the build. I will definitely try it out on 3.20.
Question> Any exciting changes/addition with the 3.20 announcements? Except the charms of-course... XD
Looks great, I am a bit sad I cant league start it because I will group.
Im trying to move of my confort zone, i usually try a build i never played every league but when it turns hard, i go back for one i already knew, also try to avoid the meta picks (like when SST was almost broken, i avoided it)
You probably won SST a try this league, im still wanting to play a good melee build cause i dont play melee since Harbinger, but SST will be my pick if cannot find a melee build that wins me.
Hoping for the best!
You could always swap SST for shield crush and turn this into a melee build! (probably not great though since there's no area scaling)
O no, please don't tell me you have given up on brands - you are the only one left!
No no I love brands and will definitely keep it updated, I just love trying out other skills that sound fun.
And also, can you make a video for leveling and what to go for upgrades etc until you reach maps and what changes that is needed for mapping ? If you have time, thanks in advance.
Is there a more detailed guide on crafting the helmet for us that are pretty new to crafting? I feel like that's the next step in my build, but even with you talking about it in this video I've no idea how to tackle it.
Either way, thanks so far for the build. It's my favourite build to date!
Coming soon!
@@Velyna Thank you, much appreciated!
Love your thumb nails, thnx for the vid
Maybe shield throw berzerker tankier?
@velyna Hey love your guides I am following your guide but when do you switch from concoction to shield throw? THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK
As soon as you get your shield and jewel you can switch over.
Played it last league, hope its still viable in 3.21
Definitely still viable in 3.21
@@Velyna thanks for the answer, one of the best builds I've played in years
That kitten near you 😻😻😻
He's a real sweetheart
Nice video but the sleeping kitty is cute
I'm not sure I will ever reach a stage where I can afford an Ashes, but it looks like fun.
Don't worry you won't need the ashes to enjoy the build but you play the build you might be able to farm yourself the ashes.
@@Velyna okay, you sold me, I'll give it a try. Have fun with the new league, and thank you for the guide.
Good video
Love your guide, and I'm gonna start the affliction league with this.
Just wanted to know what you think about build now with the new changes coming and losing bunch of stuff like alternate quality, phantasmal gem.
Also, with the transfigured gem conversion isn't needed, so the build's gonna go thru some changes?
The build has been updated, it did lose some damage but I'm going to leaguestart it still. I think the transfigured gem will be a nice midrange gem to play with but I'm not sure about the end game damage.
ty
Hey, doesn't the removal of replica conqueror's efficiency drastically impact the endgame mana problems? Would rolling a bunch of %reservation efficiency on rare jewels be enough of a compromise?
I'm thinking so, we have mana leech and don't attack that fast tbh.
gladiator bleed sst is a thing too, not as much dps incoming but tanky af
Thanks for your amazing build i was looking for a nice raider build and yours pops out by far so gonna run it on ssfhcs 1 question is it possible to run it with Trinity and if so how would u do your PoB and gem setup
trinity is kinda a pain in the ass to fit in there. So far I have not found a way to have full elemental conversion.
@@Velyna yeah i did some digging for the trinity setup but its super hard to get it right prob not worth the investment while your cold one is doing a amazing job! love the guide super clean and easy to follow ty again!
@Velyna forgot to ask but what Will be the best atlas route for this build for gear progression for me on ssfhcsanc.
the cat
so what level do you change over to shield?
i once way back in days crafted better shield than Emperor its technicly still posible now but its mirror level shield so not worth it
Love it, but ashes of the stars a bit tuff to get :)
You don't need that unless you want to kill gigabosses.
I prefer prismatic eclipse with 3 green sockets for 36% global attack speed, on the other hand, this build rocks
Oh yeah you can use that one as well or even a tempestuous steel.
FROM Build Guide:
Cold Mastery: To hit full cold conversion we will need the 40% from this mastery.
Why? Hrimsorrow already did full cold conversion
Which mastery we can take?
Oh, hrimsorrow until you get the rare gloves with the betrayal 35% phys converted to cold and the implicit 25% phys converted to cold to get to 60% then the cold mastery 40% phys converted to cold for the rest.
Played Glad SST during the 3.19 BPL and it ended up being one of my most fun characters from Kalandra.
I haven’t played a Raider since they redid the ascendancy points, so this build is looking very nice.
I’m curious what your second choice is for league start.
Ice Trap Sabo, I'll have a video up on him soon. He's pretty sexy as well.
