Hey bro. I have a potato pc to play path of exile. Can you help pls!??? I want a tank build that survives lags and screen freezes. Enough damage to play and have fun. Any suggestions?
Hey @Phoenix, nice Video, i was wondering how to craft the gloves? (I get the Essence of Loathing), but then to get the elemental damage when you critted recently? Thanks
Buy the gloves with a fractured resistance and spam life essences on it until you hit life + mana, then lock the prefixes and use a vielded orb to get a vielded suffix then craft whatever you want as your last suffix.
Hello, I am trying to use craft of exile the emulate the craft of iron ring. I used essence of scorn and suffix cannot change. Then, when I try to use reforge caster, it is telling me there is no caster mod in the mod pool can be added. Do you know why this is happening? Thank you!
Suffix needs to have 1 empty spot. Crit essence/mana regen take the other two spots. The only mod reforge caster can roll on rings is cast speed. So if suffixs are full u can't add cast speed with reforge. Pretty sure that's how it works

hi, I do have alittle quetions, in the pob, you put 2 large cluster jewels in the pasive tree but you didn't put any pasive point in it, how does the jewel actually work in the pasive tree?
Soo I guess this is just a glass cannon build with an EHP of 28.5k, not ailment immunity so gg getting frozen. -60 chaos res, 3k life, 1.7k armor .1.6k EV, 0 Spell suppression.. i guess the idea was to kill anything before it even breezes near you XD. pretty nutty damage though
@@rul8734 i've been baited by him last league for this build, its trash, without huge investment u just insta die past tier 10 maps, with investment you just insta die past tier 11 maps, but u can kill bosses fast
When I use Arc I have no mana regen issues on boss but when I use CL I can only get a few in before mana is depleted. I have almost the same amount of mana regen, any suggestions?
it's because in PoB and Video he use Inspiration that cost nothing, but if you put Crit damage the mana cost is so hight that event with 2k5 mana regen tou cant sustain it
Chaos damage is rare and not an issue in Softcore trade league, however if you really hate having - 60 chaos res then craft your rings with chaos resistance instead by replacing the "reforge caster" step with "reforge chaos"
It's less efficient to set arcane cloak on auto activation because it gives us lots of damage and it might be on Cooldown when you get a chance to deal damage.
I've been playing this build quite a bit. It's alright but extremely squishy in higher maps. I have solod everything up until T17 at the moment. Would definitely recommend swapping wrath out for determination. But even with 85% phys damage mitigation I still find myself dying quite a bit. Likely need an additional defensive layer, evasion, block, spell suppress etc. Trying to figure out a good defensive setup for the remaining 3L but really not sure.
Definitely. And i removed agnostik for more es plus take Sanctuary of Thought and swap to three dragons for freezing stuff(just be sure, that you have source of fire damage to spells to inflict shock). Feels pretty fine to me. Now thinking about Immutable force, stuns annoying...

@@rystraum Yeah, I ended up changing a lot of the things you did as well. This build is just a theorycrafted build that has a bajillion damage but doesn't function well in the game. Agnostic was a bait. I went ES/low hp instead and it worked much better, had a lot of ES. Went Ivory tower for body armor. Switched one wand to the unique mana reserve shield. That let me run Wrath + Grace + Zealotry + Clarity. Had max armor+ max evasion +10k+ ES. Worked out well. All those changes I could run t15 ezpz and t16 was doable but bosses were rough.
Bro I followed your build. Just 1 question, why does my mana regen slower than yours when using righteous fire? I cannot spam crackling lance for more than 8 secs. Hope you can help.
@KyleSeraphim i'm having some trouble with stun in this build, because of low amount of life, now i'm trying to fix this , every time a range enemy shot and stun x_x
@@shadowlest 1) The Brine king Major pantheon Will grant you stun immunity if you have been stun in the past 2 seconds. 2) Try not to blink in mobs (doh. But I know its easier to said than done) 3) Carry Rumi and use it as a panic flask 4) use meat shield support with lightning golem and get a jewel with minion taunt.
@KyleSeraphim yeah i already using Brine King, the Rumi flask you say is for stun calculation? Because the amount of block chance and armor for this build is nothing xD. The damage is pretty decent now, its almost 22M , but the survivebility is sucks, i'm stuck at level 91 because of this stun, in some boss i just cant hit him because he is "perm stuning" - stun+MOM = perm stun or die - , i think this is because we have just 3k of life x_x, some guys is running at 2k @_@
@@shadowlest Rumi is to prevent you from getting killed in 2 seconds, and with the 2 second frame if the boss stunned you you can blink away. The playstyle of mana stacker is a bit different. You need to arc the position you want to move to, then blink, then arc, then blink. If Bossing is giving you the most of the issue then again i'd look into beefing up your golem with taunt% on the abyssal jewel... Until you have 100M+ DPS like in this video then you can just delete the boss hah
How are you getting extra shock effect, i see you have put 65 into the calcs, but how did you get tat number, I know you increased your max to 65 but do you need to increase your shock effect with gear or on the tree to get to 65
No Shock is decided based on the lightning damage of the hit in relation to the target hit points, we deal too much damage that we automatically inflict maximum shock with 0 investment in shock effect.
I ran arc of oscilating for 1.5 leagues and regular arc is just better for mapping. There is a potential edge case maybe for a boss somewhere that benefits from arc oso vs arc, but might as well just run arc for 99% of the content and CL for the bosses.
You use intensify support in your PoB, but crackling lance already has intensify stacks - those 2 don't seem to stack according to PoB (nor do I see some different buffs ingame). Anything else we can substitute it for?
Hey mate! Thx for the cool arc build - I believe arc deserves more love) Will this build work without the "Increased Mana Recovery rate" mod on belt? How crucial is this mod for the build? Will it work with a Mageblood or HH on high budget for example?
I see. But it'll be easier to get a lot of extra damage on gear when MB takes care of deffence and speed. So it's possible that RF won't even be necessary. Thx for the reply!
Build is going well so far, I can do t16 maps without dying with careful play. I'm missing like one or two upgrades, but I still don't see how those are going to push me to 100-220m dps as mentioned in the video. I do have a question though, why does this build use both bottled faith, and a normal sulfur flask? I thought they didn't work together?
Bottled fait is useless while mapping because we keep moving, I don't bother pressing it hence I have a sulphar flask to retain the 40% increased damage bonus while mapping.
I need help please I have no mana issues at all I stay on full mana even when I spam abilities and regen when I get hit BUT BUUUT if my mana hit 0 the regen stops untill I go to a boss room it just completely stops only applies to life
@@PhoenixLive_YT hmm Will do but sorry to be annoying with this but just need to make sure I'm getting it right I already regen to max mana while I have RF and when I get hit by enemies I regen back to max mana again while having RF on But if I keep getting hits untill I reach 0 mana then no mana is regenerated but life is max just fine as usual So I just need to get way more extra mana regen to be fine? Or even if that happens same thing going to happen when I reach 0 mana
thank you for your build it is really strong but very squishy, is it possible to put a pob in the description a little more tanky would be VERY appreciated
The build is squishy if you treat it as a tank, our defenses only exists to protect us from accidental one shots, the build already offers LOTS of damage for low price, you can't have everything.
I got baited so hard with this build. Glass cannon is so true. I had to sacrifice a lot of the DPS but I've managed to up EHP to 60kish, 81% fire res, 40% block, 12% spell suppression.

Hey man, thanks for the great build! Could you do a short video about the crafting of the gear or put it into the pob? Not that familiar with crafting, would help a lot!
hello Phoenix I just wanted to tell you that I really appreciate the build that you created, I'm really having fun with it. You did a good job, keep it up and a like, you deserve it on the other hand I am level 80 and mobs on contact kill me in two hits map t10-11.what could it come from?

Its played on hierophant which has 4 minimum power charges anyways, and void battery gives 25% increased spell dmg per power charge, which is 100%. Downside of void battery is completely negated at all times with this ascendancy. Most of power charge user spell based builds would use it anyways just cause its scaling is huge
Correction We have 10 total power charges not 4, that's a total of 250% increased spell damage per wand for a total of 210% after adding the implicit and the reduction.
@PhoenixLive_YT , my gear is more is more or less mirror to what you have, but i still get one shot by dumb shitty mobs, the only difference that i have is that my rings are only at 45ish % mana regen, is that the reason why i die even with agnostic and mind over matter?? resistances are capped**
Do you have increased mana recovery rate on your belt? Do you have the same corrupted magic jewels with the "Adorned" unique jewel? +even if you have 1:1 replica of the build, you are not going to be immortal, this is not a tanky build, it's just average which is exactly what you would expect from a self cast dual wielding spellcaster.
Now I am level 95 and using this guide from the start. I can say the dps is good. But its easy to get killed. Although your mana regen is good, but sometime enemies easily one tap you. Now I am working to get good defense like spell suppression and others
I never made this build to be tanky, I was trying to maximize damage with Archmage, our defenses are there to protect you from accidental one shots, you can't take constant beating.
This build doesn't really benefit from expensive items since all we really need is mana, I don't recommend getting Mageblood unless you are planning to go full defensive flasks.
I think it's the same tree as his arc league starter with a few points changed at endgame. I'm using the arc starter pob to eventually swap to this. hope this helped
Thanks for the guide, I'm really enjoying this build. I'd appreciate even more if your POB had REAL items. I mean, your POB has only perfect rolled items and it gives us the illusion that we are going to be anywhere near that damage, which we obviously can't.
i se 28k max hit pool it seems like anything can kill u not sure this guy plays a lot of poe seems like a bait build for new players who thinks dps is all we need
We are already a lot tanker than builds that deals similar damage at higher investment, you can't have both massive damage and high tankiness with common unique items.
Any tips for getting some stun avoidance ? It's pretty frustrating dealing with stuns before I have a huge mana pool , I have decent items but I'm still leveling the character (it's 80 now ) and i'm getting stunlocked and killed A LOT

@rystraum nah ,I think the build is cool , for survivability and qol I just bought a mageblood 😉 . The build is so zoomy, map bosses are inexistent, other bosses melt in seconds . Sure you can die sometimes to random stuff like exploding strongboxes or a pack of rare porcupines 🤣,but the speed the damage is absolutely worth it ,and also I'm making tons of currency by farming legions ,I mean I destroy whole legions with 1 vaal arc 😜
I havn't played PoE in like 4 years but I'm jumping into SSF with this build today. Arc is my fav skill ever in any ARPG. Just love the efficiency of the bounces. YOLO
i have the exact same gear as you and im nowhere near the dmg you do. what is wrong? bait build? hope youre still around and can help me out. something seems off
LOL. Just got an 'Arc of Oscillating' So I thought, Why Not? HC SSF so gear rather sucks, I am a bit fragile. Automated the Arcane Cloak. Have a couple 4 links @ L45 now. The Necropolis has been good to me, not from crafting, bur lots of Gemling Embers, so a ton of high quality gems. The Arc transfigured as a 20 Qual from one of those drops.
@@PhoenixLive_YT thanks for answer, i'm running this build and can do maps up to T16 buuut i have problem to kill bosses like the Eradicator. I spend like 8-9 div for gear, some i craft myself, some things i don't have like militant faith timeless jewel (had one for 1 div but it changed arcane will to wrong one so i sold it) and im missing the Adorned, and +1 power charge on helmet and awakened spell echo (btw. i run archmage instead inspiration)
@@hdwq Nah you use Eternal Blessing support on it so it reserves 0 mana. I've actuallly switched to a low-life ES version of this build. So now I use Eternal Blessing for determination, then reserve life to run Herald of Thunder and Discipline.
Why the helmet? I maybe do not understand the three texts. ES gets to zero. Transfiguration of mind we already have. The other two texts useless? What do we get from the helmet?
@@PhoenixLive_YT Thanks, something I noticed was the Cloak of Defiance has a fairly high Dex requirement of 76. The PoB only has 69 (it's not throwing up an error for some reason), what's the best source of this Dex? In hindsight I presume it's just a good dex roll on boots, possibly on gloves or rings too if desperate... I've not ran Archmage before so another question is, prior to being able to kill whatever it is before it's a problem, what's the best method to deal with stun locking areas? It seems like it's a bit an issue. for example, I'm levelling with it right now and Kaom's arena is very hard to survive in as 2/3 of it is being hit by lava balls. I'm sure it's not the only area like this and I'm pretty sure that repeats in a map too. Sorry to keep bugging you!
@@Laschwappen sorry, it's a little bit hard for me to understand by listen english, just hope there are some words i can read or us translatetion, btw thanks for ur respon :)
Using inspiration gem seems usseles bro , you can get only 1 charge at time only benfit is 35% less mana cost of arc?
Ah shit, I forgot about maximum inspiration threshold, I guess we have to use crit damage gem instead 😂
All good , just more dmg inc 😂😂
so we use inspiration on arc only or we dont use inspiration and use increased critical damage on cracking lance and arc?@@PhoenixLive_YT
We don't use Inspiration at all, use crit damage.

Check our amulet.
Soo I guess this is just a glass cannon build with an EHP of 28.5k, not ailment immunity so gg getting frozen. -60 chaos res, 3k life, 1.7k armor .1.6k EV, 0 Spell suppression.. i guess the idea was to kill anything before it even breezes near you XD. pretty nutty damage though
stun inmunity ?? dont forget he is showcasing white maps and white invitations on top xdd . Wondering how many times he died on that uber exarch .
@@rul8734 i've been baited by him last league for this build, its trash, without huge investment u just insta die past tier 10 maps, with investment you just insta die past tier 11 maps, but u can kill bosses fast
why when I reached 0 mana it does not regenerate back? and it is so squishy what do I miss I have all unique cluster jewel
We are not using any unique cluster jewel....
@@PhoenixLive_YT sorry I mean all the unique equipment and the two clusters jewel
hello, lightning conduit of heaven for mapping with this build instead of arc does it work? as arc kinda boring xD
When I use Arc I have no mana regen issues on boss but when I use CL I can only get a few in before mana is depleted. I have almost the same amount of mana regen, any suggestions?
it's because in PoB and Video he use Inspiration that cost nothing, but if you put Crit damage the mana cost is so hight that event with 2k5 mana regen tou cant sustain it
how do you avoid getting instant killed to chaos damage at -60 chaos resistance?
Chaos damage is rare and not an issue in Softcore trade league, however if you really hate having - 60 chaos res then craft your rings with chaos resistance instead by replacing the "reforge caster" step with "reforge chaos"
@@PhoenixLive_YT thanks dude ill try it out
did so as well - i m @ -2% chaos res and feel much safer now
what if in this assembly use Automation Arcane Cloak...and don't use RF.What can happen?
It's less efficient to set arcane cloak on auto activation because it gives us lots of damage and it might be on Cooldown when you get a chance to deal damage.
Is there a budget version ?
I wanted to play Arc Lighning and started with Witch, but now every build is with Templar. Do I have to switch to Templar or can I copy it for Witch?
Switch to Templar ofc, it's waaay better.
With the agnostic and RF combined, I often get stuck on 0 mana. Having to leave the map or die. What's the solution to this? More mana regen?
Yep more mana regen, do you have the important belt mod I mentioned?
I've been playing this build quite a bit. It's alright but extremely squishy in higher maps. I have solod everything up until T17 at the moment.
Would definitely recommend swapping wrath out for determination. But even with 85% phys damage mitigation I still find myself dying quite a bit. Likely need an additional defensive layer, evasion, block, spell suppress etc. Trying to figure out a good defensive setup for the remaining 3L but really not sure.
Definitely. And i removed agnostik for more es plus take Sanctuary of Thought and swap to three dragons for freezing stuff(just be sure, that you have source of fire damage to spells to inflict shock). Feels pretty fine to me. Now thinking about Immutable force, stuns annoying...
I got baited so hard with this build. Glass cannon is so true. I had to sacrifice a lot of the DPS but I've managed to up EHP to 60kish, 81% fire res, 40% block, 12% spell suppression. The damage is good enough for what I need anyway, and the deaths were just bothering me so much.
I was able to improve survivability by:
- I dropped RF because I did not like how it behaved, so I also removed The Agnostic
- Dawnbreaker Shield - Phys/Cold/Light taken as Fire
- Ruby Flask - +Max Fire Res & Spell Dmg leech as ES
- Granite Flask - Increased Armor
- Skill Tree - swapping dual-wielding to leech + 10% instant leech
- Ring - Replace 1 of the rings with amethyst + chaos
- Aura - I swap between Wrath & Determination depending on what I need at the situation, linked both of them to eternal bless
I've been able to Delve comfortably with these too. Still at depth 200, but going deeper - it just takes a while.
@@rystraum Yeah, I ended up changing a lot of the things you did as well. This build is just a theorycrafted build that has a bajillion damage but doesn't function well in the game.
Agnostic was a bait. I went ES/low hp instead and it worked much better, had a lot of ES. Went Ivory tower for body armor. Switched one wand to the unique mana reserve shield.
That let me run Wrath + Grace + Zealotry + Clarity. Had max armor+ max evasion +10k+ ES. Worked out well.
All those changes I could run t15 ezpz and t16 was doable but bosses were rough.
Hi, thanks for the compilation, but I need the regex expression
How did you craft the belt and why is it so important for the mana regen roll?
1- I crafted the belt with prestige fossoils.
2- mana recover is obviously important because this is a mana Stacking build.
Bro I followed your build. Just 1 question, why does my mana regen slower than yours when using righteous fire? I cannot spam crackling lance for more than 8 secs. Hope you can help.
Compare my ring and belt to yours and you should get your answer.
As always Phoenix. You are one hell of a build cooker. Thank you for your continued content each league.
My pleasure!
@Phoenix what are the defensive mechanics in this build?
Mana. Mana regen. Which is why its not very tanky in 16+ map, Take the atlas node that makes enemy deal less dmg if you have enough to clear maps.
@KyleSeraphim i'm having some trouble with stun in this build, because of low amount of life, now i'm trying to fix this , every time a range enemy shot and stun x_x
@@shadowlest 1) The Brine king Major pantheon Will grant you stun immunity if you have been stun in the past 2 seconds. 2) Try not to blink in mobs (doh. But I know its easier to said than done) 3) Carry Rumi and use it as a panic flask 4) use meat shield support with lightning golem and get a jewel with minion taunt.
@KyleSeraphim yeah i already using Brine King, the Rumi flask you say is for stun calculation? Because the amount of block chance and armor for this build is nothing xD.
The damage is pretty decent now, its almost 22M , but the survivebility is sucks, i'm stuck at level 91 because of this stun, in some boss i just cant hit him because he is "perm stuning" - stun+MOM = perm stun or die - , i think this is because we have just 3k of life x_x, some guys is running at 2k @_@
@@shadowlest Rumi is to prevent you from getting killed in 2 seconds, and with the 2 second frame if the boss stunned you you can blink away. The playstyle of mana stacker is a bit different. You need to arc the position you want to move to, then blink, then arc, then blink. If Bossing is giving you the most of the issue then again i'd look into beefing up your golem with taunt% on the abyssal jewel... Until you have 100M+ DPS like in this video then you can just delete the boss hah
How are you getting extra shock effect, i see you have put 65 into the calcs, but how did you get tat number, I know you increased your max to 65 but do you need to increase your shock effect with gear or on the tree to get to 65
No
Shock is decided based on the lightning damage of the hit in relation to the target hit points, we deal too much damage that we automatically inflict maximum shock with 0 investment in shock effect.
Thanks for the update on the build! Would a transfigured Arc be better than the default one? What would you recommend?
I haven't tested them because I use CL for bosses anyway and regular Arc damage is already overkill.
i use arc of oscilating with the build i do more dps instead of arc
I ran arc of oscilating for 1.5 leagues and regular arc is just better for mapping. There is a potential edge case maybe for a boss somewhere that benefits from arc oso vs arc, but might as well just run arc for 99% of the content and CL for the bosses.
You use intensify support in your PoB, but crackling lance already has intensify stacks - those 2 don't seem to stack according to PoB (nor do I see some different buffs ingame). Anything else we can substitute it for?
They do stack in terms of damage.
Hey mate! Thx for the cool arc build - I believe arc deserves more love) Will this build work without the "Increased Mana Recovery rate" mod on belt? How crucial is this mod for the build? Will it work with a Mageblood or HH on high budget for example?
Yes you can run without the mana recovery belt mod but forget about using Righteous Fire.
I see. But it'll be easier to get a lot of extra damage on gear when MB takes care of deffence and speed. So it's possible that RF won't even be necessary. Thx for the reply!
Hey.. is there any nice levelling uniques for this? And if so which ones. Im thinking about twinking up and lvling quickly :)
Yea, there are many good leveling items for this build, just check the full leveling guide uploaded right before this video.
Build is going well so far, I can do t16 maps without dying with careful play. I'm missing like one or two upgrades, but I still don't see how those are going to push me to 100-220m dps as mentioned in the video. I do have a question though, why does this build use both bottled faith, and a normal sulfur flask? I thought they didn't work together?
Bottled fait is useless while mapping because we keep moving, I don't bother pressing it hence I have a sulphar flask to retain the 40% increased damage bonus while mapping.
What armour and wings are those?
I need help please
I have no mana issues at all I stay on full mana even when I spam abilities and regen when I get hit
BUT BUUUT if my mana hit 0 the regen stops untill I go to a boss room it just completely stops only applies to life
That's because you are running RF with low mana regen, get more regen and drop RF until you get it.
@@PhoenixLive_YT hmm
Will do but sorry to be annoying with this but just need to make sure I'm getting it right
I already regen to max mana while I have RF and when I get hit by enemies I regen back to max mana again while having RF on
But if I keep getting hits untill I reach 0 mana then no mana is regenerated but life is max just fine as usual
So I just need to get way more extra mana regen to be fine? Or even if that happens same thing going to happen when I reach 0 mana
@@PhoenixLive_YT also thank you for the reply
You always do reply
thank you for your build it is really strong but very squishy, is it possible to put a pob in the description a little more tanky would be VERY appreciated
The build is squishy if you treat it as a tank, our defenses only exists to protect us from accidental one shots, the build already offers LOTS of damage for low price, you can't have everything.

hello Phoenix
I just wanted to tell you that I really appreciate the build that you created, I'm really having fun with it. You did a good job, keep it up and a like, you deserve it
on the other hand I am level 80 and mobs on contact kill me in two hits map t10-11.what could it come from?
That shouldn't happen if you have 7k+ mana and stick to the same playstyle as the one shown in the video.

when i using RF my mana regen is not enough how can i fix it
Don't use RF until your mana regen is high enough.
How do we deal with stunlocks? They happen often.
Check pantheons in the video, already fixed this.
why is the void battery good when it literally decreases spell damage by 80% two times so 96%? or it doesnt work like that (im new to poe)
Its played on hierophant which has 4 minimum power charges anyways, and void battery gives 25% increased spell dmg per power charge, which is 100%. Downside of void battery is completely negated at all times with this ascendancy.
Most of power charge user spell based builds would use it anyways just cause its scaling is huge
Correction
We have 10 total power charges not 4, that's a total of 250% increased spell damage per wand for a total of 210% after adding the implicit and the reduction.
Looks like a great build, however would it be possible to just swap in Spark instead of arc?
Why would you want worse clear? :D
Is there a more detailed pob that shows the leveling and not just endgame?
Yep check the separate league starter guide for this build.
i am currently using your other arc build, its all running and its amazing.
can I simply change to this one?
Yes follow the new version, the changes are pure upgrades.
Do we need adorned to get this up and running? Its very expensive. I can prob only get a 70%
Either get +100% or forget about it.
no, you dont "need" it to have fun with the build already. just be aware that the biggest defense is its damage and you might die more often
can i use the same build with normal gems not awakens ? will it be much deference ?
Awakened Gems have no effect on survivability.
where from u gain hp, or it is glass canon?
Check the Agnostic Keystone.
@PhoenixLive_YT , my gear is more is more or less mirror to what you have, but i still get one shot by dumb shitty mobs, the only difference that i have is that my rings are only at 45ish % mana regen, is that the reason why i die even with agnostic and mind over matter?? resistances are capped**
Do you have increased mana recovery rate on your belt?
Do you have the same corrupted magic jewels with the "Adorned" unique jewel?
+even if you have 1:1 replica of the build, you are not going to be immortal, this is not a tanky build, it's just average which is exactly what you would expect from a self cast dual wielding spellcaster.
Now I am level 95 and using this guide from the start. I can say the dps is good. But its easy to get killed. Although your mana regen is good, but sometime enemies easily one tap you. Now I am working to get good defense like spell suppression and others
I never made this build to be tanky, I was trying to maximize damage with Archmage, our defenses are there to protect you from accidental one shots, you can't take constant beating.
Do you have a high budget version with mageblood?
This build doesn't really benefit from expensive items since all we really need is mana, I don't recommend getting Mageblood unless you are planning to go full defensive flasks.
Am i missing something? when i load the pob, it is for crackling lance.
It's mentioned in the video that this build switches between both skills depending if you want more damage or better clearing.
got a leveling build for this one ?
I think it's the same tree as his arc league starter with a few points changed at endgame. I'm using the arc starter pob to eventually swap to this. hope this helped
The defenses seem extremely low and effective health on POB is very low, but you tank Uber exarch balls? How does that work?
you need high mana and mana regen pool - until then its squishy, yes, and the biggest defense is its offense then
@@_skiel Every single affix of his endgame setup is damage related. There is only one defence of this build and it is 6 portals.
@@Rafalga84 mana and mana regen are offensive, yes but also defensive.
Thanks for the guide, I'm really enjoying this build. I'd appreciate even more if your POB had REAL items. I mean, your POB has only perfect rolled items and it gives us the illusion that we are going to be anywhere near that damage, which we obviously can't.
how much currency u need for 200m dps?
the Pob doesnt even have lvl 21 gems and still so much dmg?
isnt 40k ehp way too low?
Prices depends on the market however this build only needs 40 Divines to reach that damage.
i se 28k max hit pool it seems like anything can kill u not sure this guy plays a lot of poe seems like a bait build for new players who thinks dps is all we need
@@PhoenixLive_YT That seems like a strech lol.. Awakened Spell echo alone is 41 div. ALONE. :D
@@Hayqt The Adorned with maxroll is mirror :D
@@Hayqt it reaches about 190m with normal spell echo
in Ascendancy whyn not illumanated devotion instead of mana reg ?
Because the mana node is better.
Any idea how to make this build more tanky? This league and expedition really hurts...
We are already a lot tanker than builds that deals similar damage at higher investment, you can't have both massive damage and high tankiness with common unique items.
Any tips for getting some stun avoidance ? It's pretty frustrating dealing with stuns before I have a huge mana pool , I have decent items but I'm still leveling the character (it's 80 now ) and i'm getting stunlocked and killed A LOT

Is Arc of Surging / Arc of Oscillating a better replacement for regular Arc?
It doesn't matter much since we are switching to CL for bosses and regular Arc damage is already overkill.
@@PhoenixLive_YT Thanks, something I noticed was the Cloak of Defiance has a fairly high Dex requirement of 76. The PoB only has 69 (it's not throwing up an error for some reason), what's the best source of this Dex? In hindsight I presume it's just a good dex roll on boots, possibly on gloves or rings too if desperate...
I've not ran Archmage before so another question is, prior to being able to kill whatever it is before it's a problem, what's the best method to deal with stun locking areas? It seems like it's a bit an issue. for example, I'm levelling with it right now and Kaom's arena is very hard to survive in as 2/3 of it is being hit by lava balls. I'm sure it's not the only area like this and I'm pretty sure that repeats in a map too.
