I plan to upload a very in depth video for this build, covering everything you need to know all the way from level 1 - > T15 maps. LEt me know if you're interested in that. Otherwise, make sure to check out the other videos Random sidenote: Don't trust build videos doing anything under like T8 maps unless it's specifically an 'early' endgame setup. I've been seeing a ton of trash builds showing gameplay with like 1k EHP in low tier maps claiming to be the best. Save yourself the pain
Can you a overview of stats and scaling and how to build. Like I am act 3 just after like 4 days and 30k spent on resets and 4 new characters. I have realized that my damage is low. 250 dps. Struggling with mobs. Storm weaver going into a lighting bow. Just not certain how I need to me scaling and leveling as I can't even get close to 3x 4x damage to clear. Notice it's taking like 5 seconds or more to kill and am really uncertain how to get past bricking myself. Not sure. Like for example +100% crit chance with a base of 8 takes it to 16% But +15% crit damage only gives like 2 to dps in stat screen. Not sure how to progress without more knowledge and would have to reset again and try to progress. Just not certain the minimum damage needed for clearing these zones as I'm not even killing in 2-3 seconds.
Could you also possibly do a overview of minimum dps needed for each map tier. New to PoE. Like if I need 500-1k damage to kill a white mob at level 30. Then at say tier 4 maps is this like 15k? I really appreciate you knowledge and imput, just have consistently hit a wall at level 25-30. Figured I would inform you so you can help my out. Like I found a way to get 370% attack damage on the tree, but not certain how much of a investment I should push into that. If I go spell I have to spend alot of time farming gold and then respec. No one has been using Elemental Storm a build all have been using Arcane Surge. Would it be possible to make a heavy DoT crit freeze build with Frostfire support gem that consumes freeze to boost ignite?
Yeah, frost is the way to go. I tried Nicks spark build today and had to respec back. Im only level 50 and my damage was not even close enought to fight mobs. The faster ones got to me and meled me to the death unless I used mana tempest, but then I had to stand in a little circle so range enemies were killing me.
I've taken fire and ice both passive. I feel like when encounter a rare monster ice doesn't have enough dps to take it down fast. So I tend to used fire against them
Made 3 characters and only max lvl 20, got about 10-12 Exalts (I used some) so it's pure random at low levels, but yeah if it goes like PoE1 (but they say they fixed it we'll see) drops are a lot more common the higher you go
YEEESSS! Trading is simple but I can't figure out how to sell on PS5 even though I have a premium quad stash tab. All online instructions are for PC only sadly
The problem that I've found with the chromancer imo is - they don't have spells with cooldowns. Yes, there's the hammer of the gods build, but i don't want to branch out that way. The only thing that I found useful would be the slow affect. The skills seemed fun, but not worth it.
Nick- can you make a leveling path that is more fun please? Everyone keeps saying spark leveling is baaad. Im so confused between starting with this build or the ranger lightening build and thats whats keeping me.
Assuming it works like in PoE 1, mana recovery affects more than just regeneration. It affects all mana recovery including leech, mana on kill/hit and damage recoup as mana. note that if a flask has mana recovery rate it is specifically for flask.
So with the Nerf GGG showed that the sorceress (flash) shouldn't work that way but that was a sorceress for me as she should be But this build get to 1000% a nerf and also boring 😅
100ex do be able to do t15s is not a high investment, most maps I get like 2-3 raw exalts and I made over 100 exalts in less than a day of grinding. If you want a build capable of doing the highest tier content then you need to invest into it
@@VezulsI sympathize since I used this build all the way from level one, but I farmed the whole build out piece by piece without much difficulty. Obviously you can't do t15 maps with literal dogshit gear, but you can easily do lower maps with dogshit gear, to farm the gear necessary to go higher. People saying you can't do that, I have no idea what video game they are playing
@@NickTew Oh yeah, I'm not disagreing or knocking your build, just that amulet is very expensive. I'm currently doing what I can to farm exalteds for it bc I always wanted to play a lightning build for POE2. I'm currently using the fireball/frost wall build since they nerfed COF, but I hate it. Would you say this build is playable (I'm currently on t1-3 maps) without the neck (I have the gloves tho)

Can you make a guide for how to make exalted orbs in mapping? which strat are you using to farm etc?
@@SmexerP
Good idea, all I know is you can get 1-3+ per map you run supposedly.
@@SmexerP
Lol stuck on early act 3
I am so glad you are on POE 2 as well as sorcerer been watching you since d4 and Im glad to follow your builds again
can u please do leveling build
Sparks is pretty bad early.
level with frost wall/coldsnap then swap over around 45ish prolly the easiest route
Yeah, frost is the way to go. I tried Nicks spark build today and had to respec back. Im only level 50 and my damage was not even close enought to fight mobs.

@@xooonepieceoox1917 use frostwall for rares/bosses. It's a gamechanger , don't sleep on frost bomb either
My man said he has mid gear…I look at mine and I feel like my char is swimming in the toilet
How do you sell gear for exalts?
150 exalts??? holy crap, im at lvl 45 in Act 3 and i've found maybe 6 exalts total.....do they drop alot more in end game?
He sold gear to get that many
I believe item rarity and quantity increases the further you go in maps, same with enemy level and boss level
Made 3 characters and only max lvl 20, got about 10-12 Exalts (I used some) so it's pure random at low levels, but yeah if it goes like PoE1 (but they say they fixed it we'll see) drops are a lot more common the higher you go
How can I use your item list? I'm new.
You've been guiding me through EA, so thank you, keep it up!
Do you think it's viable on chrono?
Would you ever do a guide on how to trade and sell items for console at all please.
YEEESSS! Trading is simple but I can't figure out how to sell on PS5 even though I have a premium quad stash tab. All online instructions are for PC only sadly
have shield when conver all to mana?
What amulet is he using?
As someone who just got to maps now, can i swap my whole build to this? currently lvl 66 very basic gear
make a cronomancer build..tired of regular build .but good job on buiuld just want to see a chronomancer

Does mana recovery rate apply to mana regeneration too, or is that only for flasks?
Assuming it works like in PoE 1, mana recovery affects more than just regeneration. It affects all mana recovery including leech, mana on kill/hit and damage recoup as mana. note that if a flask has mana recovery rate it is specifically for flask.
thank you, I was just wondering why he was skipping the mana recovery nodes in the middle, straight above sorc start
@marcellsipter7651 it's a balancing act, if you feel you need it take it basically.
Random question, but do you use loot filter?
Yes he does. Wudijo just made short video how to set up loot filter. You might want to check it out.
@pvkwtko8 thanks bud.
this amulet now is 42 ex
Yeah it flucates, was like 60 ex yesterday...
Lightning nerf pending everyones speccing lightning now

Why theres no gear on mobalytics guide ?

yap yap yap
100ex gear investment is alot though, that will take a long time for new mappers to accumulate

@NickTew agreed, but from an early mapper pov, 100ex is alot
@@heathgullery4848yeah early maps barely drop exalts. It’s rough trying to gear up

I hate sparks, why cant we have other viable spells? Its so dissapointing at the moment
Nick...what's with these crazy psycho bots?? What da hell did you do to have them inundate your channel??
Good question
how do you get like over 10k damage on spark with 3,3K Mana. Like i have 2,7 and only have like 5k. would appreciate an answer thx
levels are big. depending on setup its 1-1,2k per gemlvl
