[3.10] Molten Strike EO JUGG (RETIRED)
 I'm retiring this guide as of 3.10. It's a good build and does fine in 3.10, I just don't see much activity/interest around it. Please feel free to use the template and ask questions. If you need help, I'll try and answer. 3.10 changes: -> Cluster notables (Delirium jewels): Overlord is probably the most important one. Frees up a slot and let's you run wave of conviction on cdwt. Otherwise, get any dmg ones. Note: Please post all your questions in this thread or come by the stream, don't pm me in game. Make sure your profile is PUBLIC before asking for help so your character is visible. If you have issues with the trees and you're loading them into the poe website, don't. Import them into Path of Building. Please check out the FAQ section before asking questions. I don't claim my guides to be original or super efficient. I write guides to share characters I'm fond of. Gameplay on youtube, or if I stream. ======================================================================= Pros: Really tanky. (6.5k+ hp, 10 end charges, 84k armour, 10k molten shell) Good single target. Not really expensive, except for xoph's blood. Cons: Very average clearspeed. Introduction
Spoiler
I wanted to try Molten Strike for its busted single target. Ancestral call makes clearing bearable. This used to be a chieftain up until 3.7. Post MS nerf, I decided to go super tanky and check how to dps is. The dps is fine. The highlight of the build is its tankiness. As mentioned in the FAQ, with insane amout of armor, we're effectively immune to phys damage and molten shell gives us a 10k shield which briefly makes use immune to all non-dot damage. As a softcore player, this is the tankiest build I've ever made. PoB

Well rolled nebulochs. Has good synergy with JUGG. Make sure your fire res is capped when using these. The degen hurts. Budget option: Regular Nebulochs. Helmet:
Spoiler
BIS - +2 Molten Strike Projectiles. (rip +3) Fossil crafted an enchanted Warlord's helm with scorched and pristine for -9% fire res, fat life roll and phys taken as fire. Budget option: Anything with life, res, int. Chest:
Spoiler
You could go for any heavy rare armour chest for the res. This is our most important slot to get a lot of armour in. Budget option: Any rare chest. Gloves:
Spoiler
Life, res. Capping res might be a struggle with the number of uniques in this build, unless you're using a rare chest instead. Gripped best base. Flat phys and attack speed are luxuries. BIS - Fury. Helps with clearspeed. Budget option - Anything with life, res. Bonus: Projectile Damage (Warlord) for single target or Strike skills +1 targets (Hunter) for clear speed. Boots:
Spoiler
Lot of life, with stun, freeze and temp chains immunity. Good enchants/corruptions - Regenerate 2% of Life per second if you were Hit Recently / +1 Maximum Endurance charges Budget option - Anything with life, res. Amulet:

Look for WED roll, after you cap your resists and get life. Bonus: % increased max life from hunter belts. Rings:
Spoiler
Look for well rolled ones. Flasks:
Spoiler
You need to have your uncapped fire res as the highest for Wise Oak, if you're not using Dying sun. Jewels:
Spoiler
You should get some crit strike chance on your jewels so EO proc is more consistent. If you have one. Insane dmg boost from one item. Gem Links
Spoiler
Chest: I prefer combustion over Ele Focus, helps to clear better, for very slight dmg loss. Swap ancestral call for single target. Remaining links (put them wherever you get the right colors): Unlinked: Unavailable Videos:

I like the concept of your guide! Crazy dps numbers! I'll give it a go in the near future.

I may go this route since my dual nebuloch is becoming a little more complicated than i expected... How expensive is this build?
|
|
" If you factor in all the items, its really expensive (around 50ex). But you can drop stuff like, two socket tombfists, dying sun, +2 proj helm, watcher's eye. Should end up being around 10ex at this point in the league, depending on how expensive rings/belt/amulet you get. I make build guides for fun.

Will build on current League 3.5, if so, how are things with the Syndicate, whether he tancet and breaks?
|
|
" The syndicate should not be a problem. The damage is more than enough to kill them fast and with 6 endurance charges, wise oak and Atziri's Promise, it should be defensive enough. Keep in mind that this is just my guess, I haven't tested it. " Not sure what you mean by that. I make build guides for fun.

Good build turned out really well with the syndicate, there are certainly one-shot phenomenon, but rarely.
Can you evaluate my gear and say that you can replace for better effect,and whether more dps Tombfist? P.S. sorry for my English: D |
|
" You should focus on getting, in order of priority: Kaom's roots (you would need to find a way to fill up res) Helm enchant (good helm btw, I need to upgrade mine to the -9 res) Dying Sun Tombfists (one socket is fine) Push your life total up as soon as possible. (6k+) If possible, get a loreweave with better rolls, and an anger watcher's eye (anger is bad without it, you can run blasphemy+flammability or haste instead if you can't get one). At 6k+ life with 80% loreweave and wise oak, you shouldn't get one shot except from It that Fled. I suggest testing Atziri's Promise instead of Rumi's. The chaos res helps specially against the syndicate. Get rid of Lion's Roar, its useless for MS projectiles, and melee damage doesn't really matter. Definitely not worth the flask slot IMO. Also, you should be using Alira's reward, not Eramir's. " Your english is fine I think. Gl. I make build guides for fun.
