[3.22] Self Cast Discharge Assassin: One shot guardians
|
3.22 UPDATE
Spoiler
POB: https://pobb.in/4mnldU1I-6Uj I played this build in 3.19 and it's stronger in 3.22 thanks to the +1 PC tattoo: https://old.reddit.com/r/PathOfExileBuilds/comments/x5e1ux/319_discharge_assassin_cast_on_alive_1shot_baran/ *Mechanics/Improvements: * Divergent Discharge + Crest of Desire to reduce chance of spending charges Stack cooldown recovery to get more dischages. Have less duration + SA with Cat of the Aspect to increase refresh time of chages. Stack frenzy and power charges through Badge of the Brotherhood, 2x Void Batteries, Assassin ascendency and Elixir. Defenses are basically 100% freeze and Blood Notch + Petrified Blood shenanigans. Need to be a bit tactical on when you unload your Discharge bombs. I also map with Aseneth Gloves instead. Why it's better in 3.22: Cheaper and stronger - This setup cuts 20 divs from the 3.19 build thanks to new Sabotuer nodes and Anethema ring (basically the equivalent of a 15 div power charge ring when all Bane curses are applied). I think overall, there is a 5M DPS increase.

Mechanics/Improvements: Divergent Discharge + Crest of Desire to reduce chance of spending charges Timeloop Ring or Dusk Ring for QoL mapping (probably swap for another +1 power charge ring just for single target Uber Pinnacle bosses) Stack charges via ring, Badge of the Brotherhood, 2x Void Batteries, Assassin ascendency (opportunity to use that End on Hit Small Jewel too) Aspect of the Cat + Farrul's Furr to prod charges I usually map with Determination instead of Zealotry and switch to Zealotry for Uber bossing.

Uber Sirus (1x death) https://youtu.be/Y4zDnSD41Gs - different POB set up (in video), do not recommend this one, I optimised it for more damage (gave up all defenses) because the fight is aids.

Fun build, right up my alley, 1 button. Let me clarify the rings, you're using those just for the power charges? Are there other ring options for power charges?
The reason I ask is because the mods with power charges are extremely expensive, so was thinking of doing other stuff with the rings and just running a few a less power charges. Last edited by pneumothorax77 on Sep 15, 2022, 5:32:59 PM

" Yep just Power Charges. Didn't realise how much the +1 rings have shot up in price. I would just focus on reduce duration rings as an alternative. Less bigger hits but you'll be able to Discharge more. | |
" Awesome Build there. On my way to try it. Just one question what do you mean by reduce duration rings and what does it benefit? | |
" check the gear 'Spoiler' there are two rings with less duration - one unique and second rare they make the charge generation faster by shortening the aspect of cat rotation also looking forward to checking out the build, char is almost leveled and just need the chest - somehow I ran out of chaos :D | |
|
Do you have any leveling tips for this build? It looks like something I'd like to try out, but seems like the main set up would take a while to get rolling.

" Not a first character build... I respec from Poison Helix. I think you'd be able to go Lightning Conduit though. | |
" the standard leveling routes should work just fine, storm brand, arc, LC etc. personally went with storm brand/galvanic field and it went quite smoothly Just got the build online and got to maps, its quite fun! just need to lvl the gems, patch up my res etc. Thank you again for the sharing the build! | |

Kill all bandits I assume?

Looks awesome! Could you by any chance make more "budget" version of this?
I know it will probably be a bit expensive but still... |
