Thx for the guide and I agree that warrior is a fun class. In fact I enjoyed it so much that I started another warrior right after finishing the campaign just to see what the other ascendancy Titan is about. I finished my second run yesterday and now want to see how far I can go with this class in the endgame before trying out others. I tried to avoid build guides up to this point but felt like I needed some advice on how to get started and watching your video helped a lot.
Im lvl 84 titan almost want to give up. Very hard to find an upgrade, still need to cap my resistances and get a lot more life regen. But if I change a piece of my gear, I also need to change other pieces as well.
Yea I talk about it in the video but once I got a weapon with %reduced attritions requirements and was able to equip a shield with double resist - it got SOOOOO much easier it was an insane difference. All of the sudden I was able to equip a better chest / helm / gloves / rings and even boots…just such a huge difference. It’s really hard to get gear especially in SSF, I talk about it a bit but what I did was drop down my Waytone tier and focused on getting a piece or two at a time, always filling up my inventory with armour bases. Normal magic or rare, I didn’t care I picked it up and used my currency. Eventually you’ll be able to hit something.
This video is great. You make a lot of great point about people’s complaints of gear loot and everything. I have been laughing at the fact that one day the complaint was “not enough loot”. Then people actually started using rarity then the complaint was “rarity is broke you have to equip it to get loot”.. soooo the devs put a stat in to help you find good stuff but you just don’t want to use it AND complain about the lack of good stuff. A lot of the complaints are a little watered down, and then content creators just repeat it. I’m not sure a lot of people even understand their own complaints. I hated crafting in PoE1. For one a lot of things were still random, then the obvious point of I want to PLAY a game and not sit at my chest using orbs. That’s basically a mobile game. I agree with a lot of what you said, and hopefully people can learn to not compare so much and just enjoy gaming.
You make a lot of great points as well and I really do agree with you. The mentality of a lot of player base is just insane…so much negativity and over reaction. I do think that it’s just a loud minority and content creators being negative since the steam numbers are so damn good even with a lot of people using the actual client like me.
I usually don’t comment on videos, but I was actually impressed by how little you’re bothered by the negativity and meta surrounding the warrior class. I totally agree that you should play for fun - and as long as you are able to complete the game, it’s fine. Thank you for your input - keep it up! Greetings from Germany
Greeting man! Yea it’s not even being fake positive or not criticizing GGG. It’s just that I truly don’t give af what other people do, what the “meta” is or how people play the game. So many people get such warped opinions or just wrapped up in wrong info. I will say a lot of the time people just regurgitate what a streamer says without taking a nuanced approach to the information being presented. I talked about it a bit in the last video but when someone plays video games for a living, especially games like this where many ppl will play weeks on end 12-18 hours a day they just won’t have an objective opinion on the game. Always important to just focus on yourself and have fun that way.
the counterpoint to that is that a sorc has more survivability and dps at like level 67 than a titan does at 90+, with massive clearspeeds etc. armor in chest and shield also slows you down. if anything they'll nerf that stuff since right now the best use of armor is using it to recharge ES. i have multiple 90+ chars and my top two are titan and warbringer. I like murdering swarms point blank not "offscreening passively" which literally every other build does
I’ve been using earth shatter but have had issues with clear and this helps a lot I’m a big fan of burning hammer weapon swap so I’ll be making weapon skill sets in combination with your earthshatter tree Cheers!
Thanks for the build! So much of what I've seen for Titan needs a lot more setup and gear I can't afford as a fresh endgame player, but with your build all I had to do was the get gems and supports you have on the guide and I've been having a much better time clearing maps. Hopefully I'll be able to keep improving as I push into the 80+ range. As a side note, is that mace you have a weapon skin? I really like the look of it and I'd like to get something for my Titan but I have no idea what cosmetics from POE1 currently carry over outside of the stuff in the shop currently.
Yea its the dread weapon skin I believe...I think i have it from poe 1 actually. A LOT of people are sleeping on a Rage focused titan and how easy it is to get going compared to the more heavily invested builds.
I got stuck on my witch and said FUCK IT ill just do something without thinking, went all in to do a dual weild warpick warrior and now adding in HOT and HOI. and my goodness its NUTS
brother you have no idea how you saved me from misery playing my broken stampede build. i actualy can do dmg and dont have to use that stupid gimmicky stempede. now i can finally farm some maps in ssf. i was so desperate. thx for build
Thanks bro! I'm glad you're having success with it...I think a lot of people just get really bad tunnel vision with the "meta" playstyles they forget there's always other ways to play and succeed in game.
It's crazy that aftershocks are still bugged.. If you have aftershocks from multiple sources they do not add up, and when they proc it will proc multiple at once depending on which type you proc. It's really weird.
Aftershocks for me have been working as intended. With Seismic plus Titan aftershock chance / tree you can consistently aftershock 2 times. The only problem is Tremors just feels like it either never aftershocks or aftershocks 7 times...that is def bugged.
@@Mdntech3000 Yea it works, but I mean its bugged if you stack all the support and tree for example, if you use the support that has 3 chances to proc aftershocks, each lower % if you hit the lower % it will activate all the after shocks at or above that % including your passive tree. They have acknowledged they are going to fix this as obviously this is not how it was intended to work. To boot that % does not stack at this time.
Can you update your mobalytics link to match the video choices? You have lacerate in 2 places on the website (shield charge and seismic cry), the gems shown for shield charge are different than in the video (can't make out the first gem on here), and you don't show or mention what gems for mace strike. I am liking the build, but need some more information on it to continue with it.
Your written guide isnt showing the passive skill tree nodes that you selected. Other than that ive been loving this build. Working on getting a shield any recconmendations on how to approach that?
@@Mdntech3000 What i was saying is that your written guide on mobalytics shows the passive tree but with no nodes selected. i liked to check it while im leveling to make sure im pathing right and now i cant see any of the selected nodes brothaaaa
Yea will try. In SSF it really just comes down to capping resists and getting life everywhere. In trade you can perfect your gear much better and work on getting game changing pieces on like gloves or jewelry.
In Poe 1 you spend alot of time crafting god tier gear. Poe 2 you spend significantly less time because you run out of orbs and bases b4 you get anything remotely useful. Then you have to go "play" the game again to go get more material to gamble down the drain again
True but now you get “Tiered” items that can legitimately be insane items. Really exciting for me when I see them…just got a really awesome necklace today that dropped tier 5 and felt great. I’ve said this a lot but I hated hideout simulator in POE 1…I would much rather actually play the game in maps. I get you say “play” like that but I mean this is an ARPG…that’s the game at the end of the day. It definitely isn’t easier to craft upgrades compared to POE 1 but it doesn’t bother me at all. I love so many things about 2 over 1 and will probably never go back to POE 1 even with. Ew leagues…but we’ll see. POE 2 has huge potential
The build you have is awesome and looks just much more fun than I've seen. Also you were very entertaining how you shared your opinions. But I hard disagree with the "crafting in POE 2 I think most ppl just abandon it like me to use Trade. But I havent made it to maps yet. 3 characters in Cruel Act 3
Brother im getting close to endgame, and im testing out some skills ( i need to like what im using to haven fun :D ) , and i have a question: Im using hammer of the gods, earthshatter, siesmic cry, infernal cry, leap slam and shield charge. These ones i dont wanna change. Now,maybe i try berserk, ancestral totem and scavenged platting, but i really wanna use Stampede and herald of ash if possible , is it still viable with this tree and guide? If so, anything to change on gear ? This is by far the build i enjoy the most , but i need my stampede :D
I would definitely use Berserk since that provides almost 30% more damage on it's own, plus free leech which helps if you don't have leech on gear. You can swap herald of ash for scavenged plating if you really want that much more clear but you do lose a bunch of defensives. You can definitely drop totem, that's the first skill I tell ppl to drop if they want to add another gem of their choice. Replace that with stampede for sure.
@@Mdntech3000 thank you for taking time to answer, im gonna do exactly that, and pray in the future they buff warrior a lot for + fun ! Keep content coming , good job
Does Earthshatter need to have a shout used behind it to proc ? I’ve got lvl 14 Earthshatter with upheaval , martial tempo , armor explosion and splinter it doesn’t appear to be doing what I thought it was going to do
@ so the rotation is shatter shatter shatter as much as ya want on the ground …then proc them with other skills . Kind of like the sunder / bone shatter gig from the early days .. 2 weeks ago
You might not being enough damage to consistently break armor. You might need a bit more damage, increased armor break form tree or swap out tempo for more damage support like heft if you can manage the slower attack speed.
Slower attack speed is what I want to avoid . Was working with Carn’s Molten build it although it had nice distance and clear I never got it fast . Just hit maps and level 68 so want to get this setup well . I’m a filthy casual but your vids are convincing .
@marknewman8814 if anything you might have to just drop splinter / armour explosion for more damage supports like aftershock / heft if you aren’t consistently getting the armour explosion combo from jsut splinter and armour break from tree. When you get a better weapon it gets a lot easier to get those satisfying clears
hello, i want to ask why everyone else got 54 ish stack RAGE, but mine only 48 (30 base + 18 from skill tree). i tried to find on skill tree nothing comes out blinking. thanks!!
i like mace strike + cultist hammer since the implicit on the cultist is massive screen clear. it's very OP where even a low phys roll does massive chains.... unfortunately in trade league the "hive mind" doesn't pick up or sell, and it's rare SSF even after a few mill gambling
Titan login. Warrior is fun, this class need a lot of playtime (SSFBTW) compared to other classes, we are severely gear dependant. Keep dying in maps? Play lower waystone. Grind it out! It'll take days to gear up, it's fine. Well if you don't like it, then maybe not the class for you. Other than that, don't give up! For those stuck at trials, farm completed trials for honor resistance relics, it'll get easy... you'll push through.
Good advice, Warrior chads rise up! Also I had a much easier time in Ultimatum, just soooo much easier that you legit don’t really care about a lot of the debuffs.
i hated rolling slam and let my warrior sit unplayed forever. last week i made an effort - finally picked up boneshatter and started building that way and yep - it's gonna be my new main for sure.
I swap out armour explosion for brutality or fire infusion. I honestly forget to swap out sometimes lol. The breach boss I actually swapped out wrong gems and was pretty much using a 4 link earth shatter lol
Ahh okay makes sense for bosses. I can get my armor to 25-28k buff. I got one shot by the citadels bosses two of them, now gotta find it again. Any tips on avoiding one shot? Max res but choas at 55 with charm
Also life regen is just bad on the tree…ideally I would have an Expert steel plate that provides up to 2.5% life regen which is excellent and pretty much completely off sets rage degen.
What is the boss difficulty you’re fighting at? So far all the citadel bosses have been a breeze at 3.7k health and have only died once to the Act 1 citadel because I got frozen during one of the phases. I normally just destroy the citadels now, I’ve never been one shotted. Even the act 1 boss with that huge sweeping attack and the act 2 boss I’ve taken a bunch of hits and was able to live.
Once at the act 1 boss citadel and another time at act 2 boss. Its kinda crazy cause I had no problem during the campaign. 3.2k life here. I do enough damage cause their health goes down fast only thing I can think of is the 50% chaos res. Also using plain T15 waystone. Heard about how you do your atlas tress also I may have added some boss node on there
I don’t use mace strike at all. You can clear pretty much all content even with subpar gear. If you look at my other tooltip dps that will easily be enough to clear the game
@@Mdntech3000 The dps-number is just a guidline for me. I understand your playstile: Earhshatter as main attack with two effects: Fist reduce the armor to get an explosion to all enemies and second the earthquakes.
Honestly i just give up on melee. Im a casual player and after struggling with melee i just up a ranger and it feel so much simpler than melee. Its so relaxing to up an play. You make massive damage on boss with less stuff...
It’s definitely something you enjoy or you don’t, if you’re having fun with ranger that’s awesome though! I’m having a bunch of fun in POE 2 right now.
I spent about 200 hours on warrior and switched it up to ranger too. It's definitely way more chill to play. Gear doesn't matter near as much except for bow and quiver. I'm already wanting to go back to warrior though even with all of the issues.
It’s def just a satisfying class / playstyle. I’m biased though since no matter what game I’ve always been a melee player and love the “guts” archetype. I’ve seen some archmage / deadeye builds and yaaa they are wayyyy more chill to play haha
What types of mods do you like to prioritize looking for jewels here? Also if I only have my third ascendency done, what passive nodes should I prioritize first?
For the third I’d get 15 percent more max life, it just helps so much. Even at 3.7k life I can’t tell you how many times In bullshit maps like Vaal factory I get taken down to like below 1k health often and have close calls. For jewels the big ones are +max rage, +max fire resist and then general damage increase like mace, area, attack damage.
Id drop scavenged plating for herald of ash. The ignites are sick with clear. If someone wants to try a great (for warrior) aoe clear, get stampede or leap slam and pick up all the AOE nodes on the tree. Very easy to do as early as 75-80. Herald of ash and the AOE, can clear your whole screen. Great with breaches.
That works just fine and is definitely the "meta" of Titan builds / playstyles. I honestly just hate stampede and much prefer just playing normally with Earthshatter and getting those great explosions. Both playstyles are great!
@Mdntech3000 earthquake is fun and I'm not trying to throw shade. It's just a tough spot for warriors right now, less clear than casters, armour is nearly useless, it's hard to blend fun with meta when the meta is so tight. I had to go back to herald of ash and stampede because of my own issues in t15+ maps.
Herald of ash is honestly not that good. I'm pretty sure you are confusing the Armour Explosion you are doing for Herald of Ash. Since you are referencing the popular stampede AoE build which relied on armour explosion before it was nerfed. Armour explosion is still decent and will clear the screen. People just use herald of ash because there isn't much else worth using on Warrior based builds. It is a mediocre aura though and you will hardly notice it.
@@Mdntech3000 Agreed, it's one of the worst auras in the game currently. Especially when compared to both Herald of Thunder and Herald of Ice(Both of these are amazing).
It’s not so much as the physical damage reduction percentage but getting a higher flat number. First off, armour is good in its own state no matter what all these content creators say. I can get up to 35k armour with my gear now which is a good amount imo in SSF. If you look at the armour section in my video I talk about how good this is. I provide some number as well so you can see that even with some big hits you can reduce them by 33 - 50 - 66 percent depending on the hit. Using splinter maintains 10 stacks of scanvaged plating so you have this high amount of flat armour. Even when bossing splinter is still a great support as breaking armour is a huge dmg multiplier. I really do think armour is good and even though there is SO MUCH complaining about it, about one shots….i never get one shotted or have issues in all honesty. As soon as I got giants blood I got from 87 to 92 so damn fast and smooth hammering t15 waystones.
I use blood magic! I don't care that it's not "meta"...it feels so god damn good to use and never having to use mana really simplifies the build and worrying about getting mana leech on gear or using mana pots.
Not gonna lie he took way more hits than he should of. I did my own thing on the passive damage wise seems good I stun them with hammer of the gods or rolling slam then they never get back up after sunder. 2-3 hits max.
Titan can definitely be fun. All of it's best builds don't involve using a Mace though. And all of it's tankiest builds stack ES or use cloak of flame. Mace skills are too slow compared to the insane endgame scaling quarterstaff or ranged weapons get. They aren't in a good state aside from 2 skills.
ES is definitely too strong - and even though I love titan / maces right now if they just didn’t make them so fking slow it would solve so many problems. If I didn’t have to invest in so much attack speed that’d open up like 14 passive points which would be huge for warriors.
Warrior is just so outclassed by the other classes it's not even funny. I feel like the devs clearly intended Warrior to be the pace setter of the game but overtuned everything else. I see no reason to play Warrior when Monk exists.
It’s definitely the weakest class. I’m still able to clear the game though without much effort…mapping a bit slow but I personally enjoy the pace. Good news is we should be getting some nice buffs soon.
Warriors are definitely weak overall. There are a few good builds here and there, like Earthshatter is a pretty good skill even in it's current state, but there are skills that are bugged beyond belief (Rolling Slam is bugged in like three different ways with certain support gems). And something like Earthquake is also fucking awful in how you can not cast it on the same place before it explodes. Just terrible design that will most likely get changed by the time the game releases. It's still a fun class if you want the meaty slow, harder gameplay, but it's not that strong right now (it's definitely harder than playing a ranger and you will most likely die more in the campaign)
Yea it’s definitely the weakest class / playstyle right now. I still love it and enjoy it though. Rolling slam def needs a bunch of work. Earthquake being 4 seconds is just insane tbh…it’s actually so bad too because let’s say you want to maximize single target - you’d have to place your jagged ground in such a specific manner to not overlap and get your “quakes” it just isn’t even worth it to use. Also the fact that EQ dmg multiplier is just bad compared to other skills. Earthshatter is amazing and I really love the skill, always have…I do miss Earthshatter from Poe 1 that was Omni directional but I still like using it now. For Earthshatter, they really need to get rid the attack speed penalty on Upheaval support that is unbelievable that it’s so severe - it already had the less damage no reason to add attack speed penalty.
Thx for the guide and I agree that warrior is a fun class. In fact I enjoyed it so much that I started another warrior right after finishing the campaign just to see what the other ascendancy Titan is about.
I finished my second run yesterday and now want to see how far I can go with this class in the endgame before trying out others. I tried to avoid build guides up to this point but felt like I needed some advice on how to get started and watching your video helped a lot.
Glad I was able to help, I'm just trying to help some people and provide a different playstyle compared to just the Stampede meta right now.
Im lvl 84 titan almost want to give up. Very hard to find an upgrade, still need to cap my resistances and get a lot more life regen. But if I change a piece of my gear, I also need to change other pieces as well.

Don’t give up trust me
Resistance is key in end game, concentrate on that first and it makes things so much easier
@@Razzy_82 i have max res, 18k armor and way to often i get staggered and oneshot by random mobs. Warrior is so damn slow it feels like slow motion.
Not the only one giving up

Does Earthshatter need to have a shout used behind it to proc ?
I’ve got lvl 14 Earthshatter with upheaval , martial tempo , armor explosion and splinter it doesn’t appear to be doing what I thought it was going to do
You want to use a shout to “empower” the attack and then seismic to explode the spikes.
@ so the rotation is shatter shatter shatter as much as ya want on the ground …then proc them with other skills .
Kind of like the sunder / bone shatter gig from the early days .. 2 weeks ago
You might not being enough damage to consistently break armor. You might need a bit more damage, increased armor break form tree or swap out tempo for more damage support like heft if you can manage the slower attack speed.
Slower attack speed is what I want to avoid . Was working with Carn’s Molten build it although it had nice distance and clear I never got it fast . Just hit maps and level 68 so want to get this setup well . I’m a filthy casual but your vids are convincing .
@marknewman8814 if anything you might have to just drop splinter / armour explosion for more damage supports like aftershock / heft if you aren’t consistently getting the armour explosion combo from jsut splinter and armour break from tree.
When you get a better weapon it gets a lot easier to get those satisfying clears
hello, i want to ask why everyone else got 54 ish stack RAGE, but mine only 48 (30 base + 18 from skill tree). i tried to find on skill tree nothing comes out blinking. thanks!!
Do you have Hulking Form ascendancy point?
i like mace strike + cultist hammer since the implicit on the cultist is massive screen clear. it's very OP where even a low phys roll does massive chains....
unfortunately in trade league the "hive mind" doesn't pick up or sell, and it's rare SSF even after a few mill gambling
Yeah it's a great weapon, I can't get enough of the screen clear with mace strike - splash - aoe explosions. So damn satisfying.
It's also scaling with AoE even though it literally specifies it's "Unscalable" expect it to get nerfed/bugfixed.
Titan login. Warrior is fun, this class need a lot of playtime (SSFBTW) compared to other classes, we are severely gear dependant. Keep dying in maps? Play lower waystone. Grind it out! It'll take days to gear up, it's fine. Well if you don't like it, then maybe not the class for you. Other than that, don't give up!
For those stuck at trials, farm completed trials for honor resistance relics, it'll get easy... you'll push through.
Good advice, Warrior chads rise up!
Also I had a much easier time in Ultimatum, just soooo much easier that you legit don’t really care about a lot of the debuffs.
How did u get that small inventory tab? Heard it`s an warior ascendacy obtain kind of stuff? Can you please let me know?
Warrior ascendancy ye.
Yea titan before hulking form you get the ruck sack.
i hated rolling slam and let my warrior sit unplayed forever. last week i made an effort - finally picked up boneshatter and started building that way and yep - it's gonna be my new main for sure.
Awesome man, I'm glad you're enjoying warrior and continue to have fun with it!
thx for guide. is it still good? on moba it says 'Good clear Now nerfed =/'
I actually thing so, I'd say "above average" clear. Not as good as it used to be but still damn good imo.
Cool guide can i ask what cosmetic you have? 😃
It’s the cheapest support pack tier, think it’s called lord of oghram or something
It looks great on warrior. Thank you!
Any reason you don't invest into life regain? What skills slots are you switching out before the boss fights?
I swap out armour explosion for brutality or fire infusion. I honestly forget to swap out sometimes lol. The breach boss I actually swapped out wrong gems and was pretty much using a 4 link earth shatter lol
Ahh okay makes sense for bosses. I can get my armor to 25-28k buff. I got one shot by the citadels bosses two of them, now gotta find it again. Any tips on avoiding one shot? Max res but choas at 55 with charm
Also life regen is just bad on the tree…ideally I would have an Expert steel plate that provides up to 2.5% life regen which is excellent and pretty much completely off sets rage degen.
What is the boss difficulty you’re fighting at? So far all the citadel bosses have been a breeze at 3.7k health and have only died once to the Act 1 citadel because I got frozen during one of the phases.
I normally just destroy the citadels now, I’ve never been one shotted. Even the act 1 boss with that huge sweeping attack and the act 2 boss I’ve taken a bunch of hits and was able to live.
Once at the act 1 boss citadel and another time at act 2 boss. Its kinda crazy cause I had no problem during the campaign. 3.2k life here. I do enough damage cause their health goes down fast only thing I can think of is the 50% chaos res. Also using plain T15 waystone. Heard about how you do your atlas tress also I may have added some boss node on there
Your normal mace strike does about 15.400 dps (seen in 2:25)? And with that damage you can finish the game?
I don’t use mace strike at all. You can clear pretty much all content even with subpar gear.
If you look at my other tooltip dps that will easily be enough to clear the game
@@Mdntech3000 The dps-number is just a guidline for me. I understand your playstile: Earhshatter as main attack with two effects: Fist reduce the armor to get an explosion to all enemies and second the earthquakes.
I’m doing T16s with 12k mace strike.
Honestly i just give up on melee. Im a casual player and after struggling with melee i just up a ranger and it feel so much simpler than melee. Its so relaxing to up an play. You make massive damage on boss with less stuff...
It’s definitely something you enjoy or you don’t, if you’re having fun with ranger that’s awesome though! I’m having a bunch of fun in POE 2 right now.
I spent about 200 hours on warrior and switched it up to ranger too. It's definitely way more chill to play. Gear doesn't matter near as much except for bow and quiver. I'm already wanting to go back to warrior though even with all of the issues.
It’s def just a satisfying class / playstyle. I’m biased though since no matter what game I’ve always been a melee player and love the “guts” archetype.
I’ve seen some archmage / deadeye builds and yaaa they are wayyyy more chill to play haha
Man i want to like the warrior but its painful, i got one of each class and that’s he most painful, ranger is simplest
What types of mods do you like to prioritize looking for jewels here? Also if I only have my third ascendency done, what passive nodes should I prioritize first?
For the third I’d get 15 percent more max life, it just helps so much. Even at 3.7k life I can’t tell you how many times In bullshit maps like Vaal factory I get taken down to like below 1k health often and have close calls.
For jewels the big ones are +max rage, +max fire resist and then general damage increase like mace, area, attack damage.
@ thanks for that man. Really fun build! Exactly the play style I was looking for 👍
Id drop scavenged plating for herald of ash. The ignites are sick with clear. If someone wants to try a great (for warrior) aoe clear, get stampede or leap slam and pick up all the AOE nodes on the tree. Very easy to do as early as 75-80. Herald of ash and the AOE, can clear your whole screen. Great with breaches.
That works just fine and is definitely the "meta" of Titan builds / playstyles. I honestly just hate stampede and much prefer just playing normally with Earthshatter and getting those great explosions.
Both playstyles are great!
@Mdntech3000 earthquake is fun and I'm not trying to throw shade. It's just a tough spot for warriors right now, less clear than casters, armour is nearly useless, it's hard to blend fun with meta when the meta is so tight. I had to go back to herald of ash and stampede because of my own issues in t15+ maps.
Herald of ash is honestly not that good.
I'm pretty sure you are confusing the Armour Explosion you are doing for Herald of Ash. Since you are referencing the popular stampede AoE build which relied on armour explosion before it was nerfed. Armour explosion is still decent and will clear the screen.
People just use herald of ash because there isn't much else worth using on Warrior based builds. It is a mediocre aura though and you will hardly notice it.
I’ve tried using herald of ash, even with quality on it….just super underwhelming. I still think armour explosion is good.
@@Mdntech3000 Agreed, it's one of the worst auras in the game currently. Especially when compared to both Herald of Thunder and Herald of Ice(Both of these are amazing).
Any reason to run splinter if you have 75% armor ?
It’s not so much as the physical damage reduction percentage but getting a higher flat number.
First off, armour is good in its own state no matter what all these content creators say.
I can get up to 35k armour with my gear now which is a good amount imo in SSF. If you look at the armour section in my video I talk about how good this is. I provide some number as well so you can see that even with some big hits you can reduce them by 33 - 50 - 66 percent depending on the hit.
Using splinter maintains 10 stacks of scanvaged plating so you have this high amount of flat armour. Even when bossing splinter is still a great support as breaking armour is a huge dmg multiplier.
I really do think armour is good and even though there is SO MUCH complaining about it, about one shots….i never get one shotted or have issues in all honesty. As soon as I got giants blood I got from 87 to 92 so damn fast and smooth hammering t15 waystones.
Ok good to know i level 78 and have 10k without buffs. I got cremated when I dropped to 65%....thats without a shield on
I cant upgrade to giant's blood,it keeps on saying more strength needed even when i reach the required strength.
Maybe your weapon set 2 has a weapon that can’t be used?
is the armor you are using a paid cosmetic?
Yes it's the most basic supporter pack I believe, Count Greogor or something.
@@Mdntech3000 thank you. what about the mace? it looks different from the one you have equiped
Is that a bought skin?
Yup, the first supporter pack I believe.
how did he extend his inventory box
The titan gets a rucksack that gives more inventory space, it’s an ascendancy mode.
Just equip grim feast, stack ES. Get herald of ice and thunder and smash.
This is definitely a great option. Unfortunately I think they are gonna address it next patch but we’ll see.
Is that any good without the Porc ring unique ?
Bro where's your mana?
I use blood magic! I don't care that it's not "meta"...it feels so god damn good to use and never having to use mana really simplifies the build and worrying about getting mana leech on gear or using mana pots.
Not gonna lie he took way more hits than he should of. I did my own thing on the passive damage wise seems good I stun them with hammer of the gods or rolling slam then they never get back up after sunder. 2-3 hits max.
Yea if you're talking about the breach boss, I legit had no idea what was going on.
@ lol yea my sunder hits for 450k alone.
@@Mdntech3000I retract my statement the end you hammered him I meant like middle of the video.
Titan can definitely be fun. All of it's best builds don't involve using a Mace though. And all of it's tankiest builds stack ES or use cloak of flame.
Mace skills are too slow compared to the insane endgame scaling quarterstaff or ranged weapons get. They aren't in a good state aside from 2 skills.
ES is definitely too strong - and even though I love titan / maces right now if they just didn’t make them so fking slow it would solve so many problems.
If I didn’t have to invest in so much attack speed that’d open up like 14 passive points which would be huge for warriors.
I'm crying
Warrior is just so outclassed by the other classes it's not even funny. I feel like the devs clearly intended Warrior to be the pace setter of the game but overtuned everything else. I see no reason to play Warrior when Monk exists.
It’s definitely the weakest class. I’m still able to clear the game though without much effort…mapping a bit slow but I personally enjoy the pace.
Good news is we should be getting some nice buffs soon.
Warriors are definitely weak overall. There are a few good builds here and there, like Earthshatter is a pretty good skill even in it's current state, but there are skills that are bugged beyond belief (Rolling Slam is bugged in like three different ways with certain support gems). And something like Earthquake is also fucking awful in how you can not cast it on the same place before it explodes. Just terrible design that will most likely get changed by the time the game releases.
It's still a fun class if you want the meaty slow, harder gameplay, but it's not that strong right now (it's definitely harder than playing a ranger and you will most likely die more in the campaign)
Yea it’s definitely the weakest class / playstyle right now. I still love it and enjoy it though.
Rolling slam def needs a bunch of work. Earthquake being 4 seconds is just insane tbh…it’s actually so bad too because let’s say you want to maximize single target - you’d have to place your jagged ground in such a specific manner to not overlap and get your “quakes” it just isn’t even worth it to use. Also the fact that EQ dmg multiplier is just bad compared to other skills.
Earthshatter is amazing and I really love the skill, always have…I do miss Earthshatter from Poe 1 that was Omni directional but I still like using it now.
For Earthshatter, they really need to get rid the attack speed penalty on Upheaval support that is unbelievable that it’s so severe - it already had the less damage no reason to add attack speed penalty.
I finished act 3 cruel with my Warrior no problem but im struggling with my ranger lol.
