Build planner: maxroll.gg/poe2/planner/m5a8k01m Edit: After testing Storm mages without Doryanis I do not think it is worth using Doryanis anymore. It is better to go with a good ES body armour and spend more skill points on damage nodes.
@@bladedark8302 It can go below zero yes, but it requires you to be close to the enemy. During this fight when I was dodging some attacks I got to far away and the boss lost the lightning res debuff. You also have a lot less energy shield 5-6k less compared to a good rare. To compensate for that ES lost I had to spend more passive points into defensive nodes which I can spend into damage nodes if I use a rare.
I think a few Snipers with Arsonists is the better combination BUT you need a lot more mana regeneration since the snipers command skill costs way to much mana. This basically requires you to have mana rolls on your rings & belts and possibly mana regeneration on your sceptre as well. It adds much more gear requirement for the benefit of using it. So I will not add it to the guide at this moment unless they nerf the mana cost for them in the future. As for storm mages I will play them more since I think they currently are better than arsonists. But as I mentioned it is a lot more expensive to get this going.
It is stronger than arsonists. Better clear speed and boss damage. But I will probably move away from Doryani and use Storm mages without it. Doryani is not really worth it imo. Edit: it is not better boss damage after my new arsonists improvements.
@ sorry shouldn’t have spammed that all over ur videos I think u r awesome an make wonderful guides im just extremely disappointed with how the devs of ggg made poe2 I literally dont like anything about it

Why Doryanis is not good ?
Is monster resistance can go below 0 ?

Great work as usual. Thank you so much! I waited for you build.
is lighting res still negative without Doryanis ?
what do you think about adding snipers to the arsonist build? will you update your arsonist guide with it or do you plan on staying storm mage?

Do you think this has more potential than the Skeletal Arsonists?
Yes, it has better clear speed and boss damage. But it is less tanky because of lower ES and it is more expensive.
Why did you switch to this?
It is stronger than arsonists. Better clear speed and boss damage. But I will probably move away from Doryani and use Storm mages without it. Doryani is not really worth it imo.

clearing with minions is just so bad.. we really need specters. This looks like a joke :(
I doubt Specters will make a difference, GGG need to either add in convocation from poe1 or give minions phasing (move through each other).
minion ai is pure trash this game is a waste of space
Yeah the current minion AI is quite bad, you need poe1 convocation to help it along or phasing for minions.
