[3.13 UPDATED] gr0bbs | Poison Blade Vortex | Budget Viable | Endgame 50Mil+ DPS | Video Guide

Liking this build so far. Question: I noticed the level 100 cluster tree only has about 3500 life with the endgame gear set selected in PoB.

Am I just looking at this wrong or is that the intended value? And if it is intended, is it OK for health to be that low? O_O

Any suggestions on what gear / jewels to improve? Currently clearing ~all T16 maps with no issues whatsoever. But dying instantly to Sirius and similar. :D (That might also be due to me not being very good with the mechanics of that bossfight though.)

It’s really easy to find good viridian jewels with say, max life %, strength and intelligence, poison damage and chaos damage. I needed to grab some resists and strength, but with harvest if I found them with the Max life roll on there, a chaos slam was guaranteeing 12% chaos damage. It’s a great way to beef up some numbers. Obviously watchers eye is a good choice too...
RE the Sirus questions above:

As everyone said the mirror fire phase is the best time to nuke. Just wait until he says "EVERLASTING FIRE" and watch for the real one. Pop everything and DPS then get back to dodging. Flame dash over the twirling X and listen to the voice cues for his death beam. "Feel the thrill of...(this is where he shoots)...the void". Don't bother trying to DPS during this unless you're right next to him by chance. I think the real key to Sirus is to just be patient and not spazz out and charge into ground effects. Think of it as a really long, annoyingly colored/hard to see, Shaper fight but with awesome voice acting. How boring and small! Its just a dumb fight but you can do it NP with this build.

Here is my gear on my level 94 and he's no problem. For some reason it doesn't register my medium/small cluster jewels in POB (which is annoying) but I've followed the build pretty much exactly. I have 5200 HP and about 26 million poison DPS. I swap out my rare ring for a life/3xT1 resist two-stone so I can use HH when mapping:

Can this build be tweaked to do 100% delrium fractured maps ?
Damage seems good but survivability, I fear to be one shotted by beyond monsters.

Doesn't have to be tweaked. You have different layers of defence, be it very high dodge chance (Elusive on crit / Withering Step), Temp Chains, Blind (Flesh and Stone) and if you get hit once, your health pool should be big enough to take one hit. What you CAN'T do is stand in explosions or facetank anything. Survivability during Delirium mainly depends on you always be moving.

The only thing you COULD think about improving for Delirium would maybe be using Golden Rule for self-poisoning, but then you need a watcher's eye with "Unaffected by poison"-mod. That gets you to chaos-res-cap and also improves your DPS a bit, since "poisons applied recently" doubles, giving you increased poison duration.

Regarding the PoB issue. I experienced the same thing. Two steps to "fix" this:

1: Use Path of Building Community Fork if you don't already.
2: Recreate the entire build from the bottom up. (Fresh profile, slot in the passives yourself and create the items.). This solved the issue for me. Could not reimport the items or setup the tree in my existing character in PoB, but had to create a entirely new one to make it work. No issues after that though.


POB: https://pastebin.com/W4ZGZGCg

So this is my current set up, I recently got back into the game and started off as some trickster build, farmed up some currency and decided to switch to this.

Could anybody please give me some tips and advice please. I'm still minmaxing the gear, or at least trying to. Working towards a little more life which I should get from my clusters - I'm happy with my large clusters for now, need to either buy or craft some new Medium and small clusters. Edit: Also I'm planning to get 1 more Cold Iron Point for bosses, hope that helps!

Other than that, I'm still getting used to this build, dying quite a lot as the playstyle is completely different to my previous one and I'm not really sure where I get my survivability from, as I get 1 shot a lot and bosses that have stages smack me real hard, is this basically kill before getting killed?

Any tips on playstyle, improvements and survivability would be very much appreciated!

The only thing you COULD think about improving for Delirium would maybe be using Golden Rule for self-poisoning, but then you need a watcher's eye with "Unaffected by poison"-mod. That gets you to chaos-res-cap and also improves your DPS a bit, since "poisons applied recently" doubles, giving you increased poison duration.

I am planning to use poison sextant with golden rulen and watcher's eye but before I spend currency on this build, is there a 3.11 video of this build in 100% delirium double beyond map (sextant beyond + fractured beyond) ?

I can copy for free the map if someone want's to make a video but doesn't have the map (you bring the fossils).

I used the same method (Golden Rule + Poison-Sextant) when i was farming 100% delirious strand. Here's a video how i did it:

Depending on the map mods and if you get slowed to infinity and back, it can happen that you die once or twice per map. Still, enough portals to get the loot out. I wouldn't recommend to do a Harvest boss on those maps though... T1 to T3 seeds are no problem and should give you another chest reward (had 13 each time, twice 14).
