Hey, does anything change now that the patch notes are up?

I dodged most of the nerfs :D

Tree lost 3% as, 8% increased dmg and 10 crit multi
gained +4 ele penetration and some other welcome additions.

We def will take disciple of the forbidden in harvest (56% inc. dmg now with a single click) and go for a different medium cluster after the recent changes.

I will test around and update the guide, but differences will be minor.

Which medium cluster notables/implicit would you go for now?

So first of all ty for the build, been looking for a kinetic blast for a while but i couldnt find anything to my tastes. I started harvest with this build and till the red map it felt soo nice. But right now i ve hitted a wall, a wall that i dunno how to climb . Right now my equip is kinda trash but have already around 900 int but i am still not going for CI . I am actually running wrath spellslinger and precision, but i dunno what s should be my next juicy next improvement if not the awakener orb wand wich is FAR from the price i can afford. Any idea of what to do?

hmm this is a tough one, as i said the build is very investment heavy :/

easiest fix would be swapping to Ele hit for now as KB needs some real base dmg action to be viable in reds/delirious etc.

I will start converting slowly at the end of first week (FB spellsinger atm).
we will see how it goes. new craft options look very juicy for us

I’m also running spellslinger for now (ball lightning, arc, and trigger on cast wave of conviction), while I save up a gear set for this build. I’m wondering when is a good time to switch, only when I have int stacked or just when I get a good wand as well as all the uniques?

How would you make the build tankier as to mitigate more damage? I get oneshot by tier4 Baran through 8k ES and fortify

Hello

what budget is needed for endgame content ? Always wanted to make int stacking wander. Harvest craft should help us craft gear much cheaper than before.


Have you seen new harbringer belt ? https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/The_Torrent%27s_Reclamation should be crazy for clear speed

To every question above:

I am glad to see interest to this build. I am slowly converting my assassin and gearing up. Then i will check all the new stuff and do a more profound update to the build. You can check my approach to this on twitch (link in main post).

One important thing: this build did not get any cheaper to start, i get many questions like 'it is weak, i have 5ex how can i improve'. Sadly Int Stack Wander is a late bloomer and not really budgetable. I spent the first week as a fireball spellslinger assassin to farm exalts and now converting slowly

A mini guide to my pre-build can also be found in twitch commands (and will be added to main guide soon)

Heads up!

This build is really nice and I have a leveling suggestion:

Until you get Spellslinger use this setup. (Very nice with +1 to all physical or fire spell skill gems)

ET - Added Fire Damage - Combustion.

Spellslinger setup which can bring you throug all acts:

Spellslinger - Wave of Conviction - Ball Lightning - Controlled Desctruction

Just wanted to share my progress with your build, I decided to do the self-punishing thing and league start with this build. Had a rough start but after some lucky crafts (especially the amulet, crafted with 5 ex total)this is where I'm at right now. Around 1300 int with 4.4mil 6L PS dps and 11500 ES, definitely starting to feel the power a bit but a long way to go still. Thanks a lot for the sweet build!
