Without having done the fight, he called out "She of Storming Cruelty" as in reference to Esh, and then proceeded to use Esh's Shock Nova abiilty from PoE1.
He references all of the breach demons since he is the combination of all of them. The breachlords from PoE1 are still part of the game and lore in PoE2
I added electrocute and neural overload to elemental storm instead of the 2 mastery gems and im really liking it. Very consistent extra cc layer on bosses.
As a weighted sum enjoyer, you should maybe mention it does weighted sum based on actual values of the stats. Ie. 1 phys damage, if you weight it 1, then it outputs 1. Max life, if you weight it 5, then 80 max life weighs in at 400. I wouldn't necessarily weight them in importance, but directly how valuable each stat is (which is why its roughly working for you). I always roughly build an item around 1000 points, and make it so each prefix and suffix add up their stat pools to a maximum 166. Ie. if i want 40 cold res, id put it in at a value of 4. If i want 250 max life, id put in value at 0.66. If i want 20 chaos res, id put in value at 8 each. Then the items closest to 1000 are my ideal perfect piece.
my brain is melting trying to understand that xD usually when i look for a piece i do "count resist" and check when there is other interesting mod like life or dmg boost and that all xD the weighted sum thing look like weird, 1 when i want 120 life ? 0.66 when i want whatever, etc... all those value i really dont get it
I've been testing out ascendancies. I was using the elemental storms and liked the damage but I also noticed that they cost a decent amount of mana. Even with just the first point and some CDR they noticeably impacted my mana sustain. I ended up going with double shock as it is effortless to apply and doesn't consume mana. I also agree with you about the ES recoup. I have 5.4k ES and 4k Mana with some jewels and passives for ES recharge speed. The recoup seems very mediocre, actually.
A 6link is a big upgrade for this build. You need inspiration support to sustain mana with MoM. You need to switch to CI and MoM at the same time. Chaos damage is a serious problem before CI. You lose a ton of damage if you unallocate EB or use inspiration on a 5link. Getting the 6link allows you to take all three keystones without losing damage. As a side note, I use cold snap to get an extra damage boost with rising tempest. It only has a 0.25 second cast time.
Great stuff as always! Could you also include in the guide, what to prioritize with jeweler orbs first apart from Spark? The only thing i found in this build to be super expensive, and many unlucky players will not be able to farm enough for it until far into the endgame, is by far the everlasting gaze amulet. For the most part I think it should be ignored because 1) It might indeed be nerfed soon, its for sure NOT intended the way it converts energy rn. This will mean insane waste of currency for whoever buys it before it happens. 2) It would be interesting to see how good the build holds up without it, because most people will not be able to get it 3) Its more user friendly if you make the maxroll planner not contain it while providing an alternative, and thus adjust the skill tree nodes accordingly as this will benefit more players. On this build, its also interesting to discuss how mind over matter and eldritch battery works, when they should be picked, and how good they are without the amulet With that said, the build is amazing, one tough part in the game is fully understanding how to make multiple links on gems with the corruption and all. Especially for 5/6 link. Its a bit tough to realize when is the right time depending on gear, to swap to ES skill tree nodes and dumb all the damage nodes. Its also very tough to get a really good dps weapon like the one you are using, that's for sure. In the early maxroll tab for gear setup, you are in fact using a lot of 50-75 lvl items. I wouldn't call that "early setup", but it does somewhat hint at what gear we need to amass over time in the game, so props for that. Max mana seems to be more important than one would realize in this build. I'd probably weigh it higher. I would like to note, that RNG is insane on drops in the campaign. The fact I did not see a single exalted orb in act2/act3 is kinda infuriating. I guess I need to wait for maps lol. Exalted orbs literally no longer drop in the campaign, kinda sucks cause its the only currency needed for trading better gear.
@@Blinkch fair enough, but its price now is insanely high, mainly because of how it works, its just too good now. Price will fall a hell lot after a nerf. Its price will become more manageable if it does, but the buff might also be comparable to different amulets if it does. So still worth seeing alternatives at that point.
How would I go about getting an encounter with King in the Mists in endgame? Do I just need the boss encounter on the specific map for him? And then there is the chance of getting the unique utility belt?
@olegstarik8387 I mean u can't really triple stack out of the box, triple requires pre-crafted gear. Just grabbing strength %strength and %dmg per strength on tree. Flat dmg from gear/monk skills, and using the monk bell u really should be stomping from 0-100
Lvl 76 here, still absolutely loving kitco electrocute gloves. Locking down the whole screen of mobs is a huge buff to staying alive, its going to be a while yet before I need to drop it for glove stats, I just planned resistances accordingly. If you are still using the recoup belt drop it right now for these and get a belt with stats / res instead.
@JavierCasanova25 Was around 2.1k total, deferall cost 325ish I think. Things in ritual don't have a static cost though, can probably be a bit higher or lower too
Hellow I have a problem with: chaos inoculation +eldrith battery. When I use the 2 skills like you, my energy shield becomes to 0. Plz help what I do wrong. Ty
I can't figure out what the problem is. I have a very similar gear but only 12k dps on the tooltip. The only big difference is the belt, but I don't think it will give 30k boost. Gem level, quality, mana/cast speed/skill tree pretty much similar. What am I missing?
please if you could help me and my crappy character, i'm currently lvl 77 following your planner currently after spending half a mil on respecs and overpaying around 100ex total for items to make these builds work and still do 0 dmg, currently my spark says 2.8k dmg on a 5link and my survivability isnt that great either 1.2k life, 2.7k es, 2.4k mana
mind over matter in poe 2 is 100% damage taken from mana before life, he has 1 life left after energy shield and then dmg is taken from mana. He dies when both energy shield and mana reach 0
Yeah this is like the best build for surviving one taps since he has effective 10k hp pool since mana BOTH need to be fully depleted before he can die.
Are you moving while casting? We have a node that gives a lot of Regen if you're moving. Also more mana and mana Regen sources help. Regen is based on your total mana
Some of the Jewel tooltips didn't show up for me, but a Jewel with Recover 2% Mana on Kill is also pretty good for like breach/mapping in general for Mana regen and pseudo "healing"
You can bind blink to the 2nd weapon set only, the you have dodge roll with your dos weapons and when you need to dodge boss attacks or get out of lots of enemies you swap weapon sets and blink away
For Spark and elemental storm, if you dont have a 6 link what would you use for 5? Its easy to get 5 with the corrupt vaal orb trick but 6 is like 40-60ex
Thank you very much dude, especially the links for finding right items on the trading website, very appreciated. The build is fantastic, I just have a question, I don't know if you already mentionned it before but do you think that the tree node that "convert shield to mana" is bugged and that it should actually put our shield to 0 instead of just adding it to our mana?
Would you do controlled destruction instead of unleash support on Spark? or Unleash has higher dps? I understand with unleash you can also annoint Lightning rod to scale crit.
Unleash mana cost muiltiplier is so high but very nice dps gain if u can sustain casting it. Controlled destruction is good but not to be use with Elemental Storm Ascendency cause it will need to crit. So there are many good choice up to your build.
What do you think about using shield from Trialmaster (Mahuxotl's), with corruption it has 3 sockets with up to 666% inc effect of soul cores (so it's like 13%*3 inc mana), seems very good, but giga expensive, mb even 2 socket one's are not bad too for like 100 ex
I found a Perfect Jewlers Orb today. Should I just 6 link or sell for 75ex and get some BIS pieces? Also, what’s contributing most to your spark damage on tool tip?
Hey! Love this build! Just got it going somewhat. Gear isnt optimal at all. I respecced and jumped out of hte shield nodes on the left to go for more of the ES+ED nodes and such. I have the amulet and have 3.3k mana and 3.6k ES. My damage feels a bit lacking. Lvl 69 as of this comment. Any suggestions? Just better gear (wand has +3 lightning skills, %spell damage and %lightning damage. Gem level will probably help as well as the 5L. Cheers!
I dont understand how to scale the base dmg of spark, tho. Currently lvl 79, 3.6k Mana and 20% quality spark lvl 20 gem. It has a base dps of 2.1k only, when I see all these videos with a base of 5k+ always. When I have archmage on (lvl 16 gem, 15% quality) my damage goes to 7.6k, when these guides show 15k/20k/40k dmg. I don't get it.
As you keep upgrading gear your damage will go up from Arcane Intensity (spell dmg per 100 max mana) and Pure Power (lightning dmg per 10 int). +skills, cast speed, spell dmg, lightning dmg, % extra dmg as lightning, crit chance for spells, crit dmg. Check to see if your jewels/weapon need updated etc
@@cenedor69 That's the thing, tho. My archmage is upping my spark dmg acordingly, but the BASE dmg is way too low. All of these guides do not have more spell dmg/lightning dmg then I do, I have similar gear but still my BASE spark dmg is 2k. I have similar mana as well, but that just comes into factor with archmage, which is not the problem in my case, I think. I can't detect what I'm missing. Using similar gear, same passive, gems, etc. The dmg discrepancy is too high.
@@valreth5648 At 15% quality and lvl 16 gem, my archmage already give me 7% per 100. But as I said above, I believe archmage is not the problem, since it makes my spark dmg jump from 2k to 7k. The problem is no matter how much mana I get my spark dmg BASE is way low and I cant seem to be able to make it higher. I have spell dmg/lightning dm/+3 lightning spell lvl on my wand, for example, they dont even have that on their gear in these guides, usualy.
armour pieces with high es values, especially body armor which can go more than 1k es with corruptions and that's like 1k flat mana alone because of EB.
It would say on a gem that it pierces all enemies or two. But it says "Projectiles from Supported Skills Pierce an Enemy" singular. One enemy = one pierce
@Nearis0 I understand the English meaning of the words. But poe doesn't always =English. And it's a really weird wording for poe, if it was any other gem or item or literally anything in poe, it would specify the number, not just say "an". For example, "projectiles from supported skills can pierce 1 additional enemy" or "projectile pierces +1"
@@Nearis0 let me make it less obvious to you. Check detailed stats for any projectile skill supported by pierce support. It will say "Pierce chance: 100%". There is no target limit, there is just a chance to pierce, that you can get to 100% without the gem and pierce everything without 30% post-pierce damage penalty (jewels, nodes in the tree have pierce chance).
@praetorianmk-ii4522 yeah 100% pierce mean that projectile have 100% chance to pierce once. If you can get to 110% your projectile then have 100% chance to pierce once and 10% chance to pierce second time. Am I missing something?
Hello guys, I am new to the poe franchise and would like to know: how do you make currency? Like I am level 91 playing archmage Spark and am just completely poor. I have 40 ex to my name, even tho I played the full past week. How do some streamers have like 500 to 2k ex in their stashes? It has to come from selling gear but like how do you make currency with that? I've been just selling every white expert bombard xbow I've come across but it's so slow...
Can we hit these DPS numbers with purely CI build? (I mean "Squishy" guy spark CI build) bcs idk if i should swap to yours or stay with mine but im like 3x less dmg than you.
@@alex_tahiti So its better to get block shield than focus and swap tree a little like Lance have? If yes, how do we sustain insane mana drain bcs of the MoM 50% less
@@tehorous7336 Depend of style of play. Personally I have a focus because I like to blast maps. Having a shield would reduce my dps by 30-40% but it will be more comfy against boss or big packs with the block. For mana regen you needs to replace some dps nodes to regen nodes in the tree. You can also have mana regen on the rings. There is also the anoint that Lance mentioned to add more mana regen
@@michaelmorrison2862 you click on your desired weapon set on the top right and just click the already allocated notes you want to allocate to that weapon. Note you can of course do this only to nodes that are not in between pathways to other points because that would “slice through” your pathing on switching the weapon so poe doesn’t allow it in the first place
That's weird that was my lvl when I swamped back to spark.. how much mana are you at? If you have good regen you can go mom+eb respect any inc es nodes and just roll with life and mana pool while u get currency to keep going. That's what am doing while I fix my res. Feels good at t12s
Wouldn't it be better to use a lower level Shield base rather than the Expert? Like, a basic Sectarian Shield with %block and res would do the same job, and require much less investment into str, allowing for more int. The base defences of the shield seem trivial
I know you’re probably using your ring slot for more damage but try slapping in a call of the brotherhood . I think you would freeze the boss quite frequently. Which would give you more survivability ? I’m using one on my arc archmage and I freeze mobs immediately and when I do boss fights, I freeze them more times than I stun them based on how this mechanic works it degrades overtime but the freeze that I get from using call of the brotherhood stays on the target
Sadly all the added lightning damage from archmage does not get converted to cold damage in poe2 because the calculation happens at the same time. So only the base damage from his spark would be converted to cold DMG, which would result in quite low freeze chance for a bad ring in this case
It probably won't freeze as much if you're dealing with max difficulty bosses like the one in the video. I might be wrong tho so you gotta try it with max difficulty.
This is ridiculous how much harder we have to try as a sorc compared to a merc. Merc doesn't HAVE to dodge.... In fact the fight is over in 5 seconds or less. So again I ask why were we nerfed in the first place?
first of all is there really a merc build that can oneshot max difficulty xesh? secondly frankly who cares if another build can kill quickly. this build is fun to play, fun to scale, pretty damn tanky. if not being able to oneshot the boss really makes u upset, do youreally want to play the game? the fight isnt that hard yet u just want to ignorethe mechanics and just fast forward to loot
if u guys don't like elemental storm take the double shock and try to add some shock magnitude node (they are almost at the start of the tree on the right and u recive also mana regen that is always good with this build) with this node i got 72% shock combined + 20% more exposure and it's solid .
Without having done the fight, he called out "She of Storming Cruelty" as in reference to Esh, and then proceeded to use Esh's Shock Nova abiilty from PoE1.
He references all of the breach demons since he is the combination of all of them. The breachlords from PoE1 are still part of the game and lore in PoE2
Thx. I recommend Hexbloom on Conductivity. This is a really nice clear skill.
in the planner, there's magnified effect for Sigil and Elemental storm
Definitely a mistake, but it's just a touch of qol for Sigil. Esp while clearing, elemental storm benefits more
@@Athrolaxle It is not a mistake. He has sigil on weapon slot 2. He swaps weapon, casts sigil with magni effect and then swap to weapon 1. Works

Great stuff as always! Could you also include in the guide, what to prioritize with jeweler orbs first apart from Spark?
The only thing i found in this build to be super expensive, and many unlucky players will not be able to farm enough for it until far into the endgame, is by far the everlasting gaze amulet. For the most part I think it should be ignored because
1) It might indeed be nerfed soon, its for sure NOT intended the way it converts energy rn. This will mean insane waste of currency for whoever buys it before it happens.

Its also very tough to get a really good dps weapon like the one you are using, that's for sure.
In the early maxroll tab for gear setup, you are in fact using a lot of 50-75 lvl items.

Also a quick upgrade is 20% archmage. 10% and 15% both give 6% Dmg. At 20 it goes to 7%/100mana
@@cenedor69 That's the thing, tho. My archmage is upping my spark dmg acordingly, but the BASE dmg is way too low. All of these guides do not have more spell dmg/lightning dmg then I do, I have similar gear but still my BASE spark dmg is 2k. I have similar mana as well, but that just comes into factor with archmage, which is not the problem in my case, I think. I can't detect what I'm missing. Using similar gear, same passive, gems, etc. The dmg discrepancy is too high.
@@valreth5648 At 15% quality and lvl 16 gem, my archmage already give me 7% per 100. But as I said above, I believe archmage is not the problem, since it makes my spark dmg jump from 2k to 7k. The problem is no matter how much mana I get my spark dmg BASE is way low and I cant seem to be able to make it higher. I have spell dmg/lightning dm/+3 lightning spell lvl on my wand, for example, they dont even have that on their gear in these guides, usualy.
How do you scale that much mana, i have nearly 100-150 mana on all my items that can roll mana and yet i cant go past 3000
Probably higher Es on gear which gets converted two mana
@@valreth5648i have 700es chest and overall similar items as the video
armour pieces with high es values, especially body armor which can go more than 1k es with corruptions and that's like 1k flat mana alone because of EB.
2:01 do we know for sure that pierce support only adds one pierce?
It would say on a gem that it pierces all enemies or two. But it says "Projectiles from Supported Skills Pierce an Enemy" singular. One enemy = one pierce
@Nearis0 I understand the English meaning of the words. But poe doesn't always =English. And it's a really weird wording for poe, if it was any other gem or item or literally anything in poe, it would specify the number, not just say "an". For example, "projectiles from supported skills can pierce 1 additional enemy" or "projectile pierces +1"
@@an0mndr Idk man, obvious for me.
@@Nearis0 let me make it less obvious to you. Check detailed stats for any projectile skill supported by pierce support. It will say "Pierce chance: 100%". There is no target limit, there is just a chance to pierce, that you can get to 100% without the gem and pierce everything without 30% post-pierce damage penalty (jewels, nodes in the tree have pierce chance).
@praetorianmk-ii4522 yeah 100% pierce mean that projectile have 100% chance to pierce once. If you can get to 110% your projectile then have 100% chance to pierce once and 10% chance to pierce second time. Am I missing something?
Hello guys,
I am new to the poe franchise and would like to know: how do you make currency?
Like I am level 91 playing archmage Spark and am just completely poor. I have 40 ex to my name, even tho I played the full past week.
How do some streamers have like 500 to 2k ex in their stashes? It has to come from selling gear but like how do you make currency with that?
I've been just selling every white expert bombard xbow I've come across but it's so slow...
Can we hit these DPS numbers with purely CI build? (I mean "Squishy" guy spark CI build) bcs idk if i should swap to yours or stay with mine but im like 3x less dmg than you.
AFAIK Squishy showcased his build very early. Just the belt alone is prob more than all Squishy build ol
@@alex_tahiti So its better to get block shield than focus and swap tree a little like Lance have? If yes, how do we sustain insane mana drain bcs of the MoM 50% less
@@tehorous7336 Depend of style of play. Personally I have a focus because I like to blast maps.
Having a shield would reduce my dps by 30-40% but it will be more comfy against boss or big packs with the block.
For mana regen you needs to replace some dps nodes to regen nodes in the tree. You can also have mana regen on the rings. There is also the anoint that Lance mentioned to add more mana regen
Yeah Ingenuinity is stupid good. Also basically the price of a Mageblood in POE2 already. 800-1000 Exalts for a well rolled one, woof.
How do you farm it
@@cd3193 king of the mist
Game is shit
@@bd9045 It must be tough being disabled. Sorry for that.
@@bd9045Game is fun and player retention is good, keep crying xD
I have not yet unlocked Elemental Storm, so how and when do I use it? Every pack on CD or just bosses?
It's autocast on the floor where ur spell crit.
@ ty thats sounds very op
What is the recommended order for the ascendancy passives
First the two arcane surge then storms
how does he have so much mana ? i have more mana on all my gear then his but like 800 less mana then him
So you are saying the bosses in thi game got hands?
whats hitting your energy shield? you are suposed to take hits from mana cause of mom
you get hit on mana when you have no ES "taken from mana before LIFE" not ES
mana gets hit after ur ES is depleted
What armour set is that?
Do you have to unspec all ~22 passives to setup weapon sets?
yes
No you don’t .. if they are allocated already u can just turn them into weapon passives doesn’t even cost gold
@@Sinuvil Can you please explain how
@@michaelmorrison2862 you click on your desired weapon set on the top right and just click the already allocated notes you want to allocate to that weapon. Note you can of course do this only to nodes that are not in between pathways to other points because that would “slice through” your pathing on switching the weapon so poe doesn’t allow it in the first place
Needless to say you do that in the respec menu at the npc
I heard that in peo2 there are no negativ resistences for mobs. So maybe thats why elemental storms feel better.
I wonder what spell could be better than spark with yhis build
What do I want on the jewel
My sorc is 67 and completely bricked after switching too early to this from CoF. My Spark (lvl 15) is at 1600 dps and I struggle with trash
lmao
@Masareee useful comment
That's weird that was my lvl when I swamped back to spark.. how much mana are you at? If you have good regen you can go mom+eb respect any inc es nodes and just roll with life and mana pool while u get currency to keep going. That's what am doing while I fix my res. Feels good at t12s
You do need good amount of currency to switch to this. This does no damage on super low investment
aaah i see the prometeus way of running away from things....
Why Rising Tempest on Spark? Am I missing something? Your using just lightning skills.
He has Elemental Storm, all 3 elements.
Because Rising Tempest works for any different elemental skill you use, even if they are the same element. Might be a bug though
@@miroslavkraus2572 That is not how elemental storm works, if you only do lightning damage so do the storms
Is this build worth attempting as chronomancer ascendancy?
I think you get too much from stormweaver arcane surge effect
The belt is now 1000 ex
Incredible how you have like 2 mirrors worth of gear and you are still not res capped lol
How you mantain the cost of spells? My spark cost a lot of mana
Best end game belt... still only gives 1 charm slot, lol.
Wouldn't it be better to use a lower level Shield base rather than the Expert? Like, a basic Sectarian Shield with %block and res would do the same job, and require much less investment into str, allowing for more int. The base defences of the shield seem trivial
wouldnt the max possible affix tiers be lower
Good call. Are we able to get lower bases with high ilvl?
Yeah I’ve seen low bases but they actually like way rarer than on level bases.
what do you think about the glove that makes lightning damage can electrocute ?
good in early (he used it aswell), bad in late, u have to check it when did he exactly switched but i think its fine for white maps
Is this build viable in ssf?
that belt is a thousand ex rn
i counted about 33mill hp on the breach boss, pretty damn tanky
I know you’re probably using your ring slot for more damage but try slapping in a call of the brotherhood . I think you would freeze the boss quite frequently. Which would give you more survivability ? I’m using one on my arc archmage and I freeze mobs immediately and when I do boss fights, I freeze them more times than I stun them based on how this mechanic works it degrades overtime but the freeze that I get from using call of the brotherhood stays on the target
Sadly all the added lightning damage from archmage does not get converted to cold damage in poe2 because the calculation happens at the same time. So only the base damage from his spark would be converted to cold DMG, which would result in quite low freeze chance for a bad ring in this case
He could use the electrocution gloves for cc if needed tho
It probably won't freeze as much if you're dealing with max difficulty bosses like the one in the video. I might be wrong tho so you gotta try it with max difficulty.
@@dariusm.8316 not possible without breaking all the res. Remember, the build is using a belt and a neck that already have no res affixes
@@dariusm.8316what, damn. Do we have confirmation on this because that would explain so much.
23:45 reminder for me😅
Finally that waystone lvl2 dropped 😂
i find orb of storms is really really bad at proccing exposure.
it needs to shock the enemy to procc.
Kinda sad I went with wrong vial in campaign, oh well :P
This build is Bad Ass with time Chronomancer
Yaaaaaaay gaming vohoo🎉
This is ridiculous how much harder we have to try as a sorc compared to a merc. Merc doesn't HAVE to dodge.... In fact the fight is over in 5 seconds or less. So again I ask why were we nerfed in the first place?
What build u can facetank that and kill in 5 sec and how much invested?
first of all is there really a merc build that can oneshot max difficulty xesh? secondly frankly who cares if another build can kill quickly. this build is fun to play, fun to scale, pretty damn tanky. if not being able to oneshot the boss really makes u upset, do youreally want to play the game? the fight isnt that hard yet u just want to ignorethe mechanics and just fast forward to loot
but i do agree other sorc builds got gutted. they shouldve just toned down damage numbers instead of bricking cast on x interactions for sorc.
Definitely take CI soon chaos damage is everywhere
if u guys don't like elemental storm take the double shock and try to add some shock magnitude node (they are almost at the start of the tree on the right and u recive also mana regen that is always good with this build) with this node i got 72% shock combined + 20% more exposure and it's solid .
Right, 1.5ex belt XD
Why in the hell did you have to press A to open a clasped hand? Didn't think fix this in POE1?!
This is a special clasped hand for the start of the breach map.
There’s no way he is on console? Console is so laggy especially using spark and other spells with lots of particle effects.
Controller swaps your hud
800 exaults for that belt LMAOOO
there's no way belts went up 200ex from this video what have you done....
watch ggg nerf this belt from 40-80% to 20-50%
it would be best in slot even if it was 40%
Very balanced
more balanced than jungroan arrows
bro, his gear price is comparable to his damage, so it's seems really fair, compare to some broken lvl scaling gems (like vine arrow)
He invested more currency than an average player will make until this game full releases, so yeah not too bad on the balance side
For gear worth 1000+ divs, it indeed is.
