Ok guyz I want To go for 100. But i feel 8.2k es is low. What do you think about going 3 curse. Change the shaper ring for a assassin mark and go for vile bastion for es.

Going for 100 is about the grind and safe play style. You should be fine with your current setup. You can switch to Vile Bastion if you have another way to generate power charges. But you probably have enough damage to clear all map tiers even without the charges. You'll be skipping bosses most likely so you may not miss the extra damage or crit chance. Good luck with 100. I haven't been able to stick with it due to monotony and boredom. 95 is about where I usually stop.

We have PCoC in our Arc - so it should not be a problem. The exact reasons for that are in the OP.

Other then that 100% agreement. Going to 100 is just a frikken grind. Almost all people going for 100 play low tier red maps if they kill bosses or just skip the bosses when they do t15 or 16 maps. If one death means you loose 3 days of grinding you can bet that you won't take even the smallest risk.

If you do not believe me search youtube/twitch for any kinda of 'poe' 'pushing for 100' Video. It's 'save' map clearing ad nauseum.

Just so you know what you signed up for. :)

Here's a quote from this post:

Based on XP multipliers, Level 95 and 96 are very similar in terms of how long they take, level 96 is about 13% longer than 95, due to the way the multiplier math works out, because 96 is a multiple of 16, and there's some funky magic going on there. They both took maybe 150 maps each. 97->98 took about 300 maps. 98->99 took about 600 maps. 99->100 would probably have taken about 1300 maps if it were not poorjoy's rotations.

1300 t16 maps - at a price of 40c each (if you would buy them, obviously) are 52.000c or 4 mirrors worth in maps - and thats just for the last level.

To put the grind into perspective: You will have to farm 5 Mirrors worth of Maps to get there.

Oh yeah, forgot about that. Been messing with too may other builds lately I guess. I always seem to come back to this one though cause it's so enjoyable to play.

I have to do it. Cannot explain why

In that case you dont have to change anything. Maybe go for Vile Bastion just to be save.

And then its a long long grind. :)

I remember that feeling. Then I died and that feeling quickly went away.

biggydoom4, just remember that if you're in a party, double check the mods every map prior to attacking so you don't die to ele reflect. That in itself gets old as well.

Good luck!

Can't second this enough, might even be worth just generally mapping in relfect-proof gear if you're going for 100, will save you the headache of forgetting to check and losing lots of progress. I've died so many times in parties when forgetting to check.

you tanked the wolf spell and the bleed?

I tanked the WolfBoss in two Videos in the OP - Both times in MF Gear and once even as twinned Bosses.


MF Twinned:

MF (as a pre-boss to shaper):

Please read the OP. ;)

So I want to understand what makes you able to facetank those bosses and I've been thinking about it over the past couple of days. I sometimes run into bosses where their damage outclasses my heal (such as Shaped Orchard green beam boss girl).

POB: https://pastebin.com/1FXxJY9R

2 notes:
-I'm not using aspect of the spider.
-I'm not using Indigon

So this leads me to think there's two possibilities:

1. You have higher energy shield, which makes you leech more (?), and thus are able to survive more since you have more ES to survive until you kill the boss
2. You do way more damage and thus you kill the enemy faster than me, making you able to facetank and take less damage

#1 is debunked in your video since you have like 5.5k ES or something. So I'm assuming its #2.

I do have level 19 and not all 20% quality gems, so maybe getting level 21/20 will push me to be able to facetank/bosskill faster.

Is this analysis correct? Or am I missing something else.

Thanks!

Edit: Another question I wanted to ask is, how do you calculate your total shaper DPS? Is it arc + ball lightning dps? I'm not sure how to figure in the ball lightning DPS.
