My Bonestorm/Reap Blood Mage starter for PoE 2 - THE JOURNEY PAID OFF

May I ask will blood barbs(ascendancy) resonate well with bone storm or other bone & physical related skills? Is there any chance we can focus on bleeding damage?
How to make power charges to increase crit chance?
"potential" gem? Where to link it?

Thanks for the build mate.

First timer POE here. Been using it for my first run, but I have to say, I can't quite wrap my head around how you use Power Charges. Very likely due to my own misunderstanding of the game, but it seems none of the spells you list generate charges?

Again, could be wrong, but would appreciate the help.
Thanks!


To start with you generate power charges by using Power Siphon on a wand to cull enemies. This isn't very efficient!

Once you get the keystone passive skill "Resonance" you'll need to generate Frenzy Charges instead (which get converted into power charges) and you do this with the persistent skill "Combat Frenzy" which gives you a charge every time you Pin an enemy

Finally you use the unique boots "Bushwhack" which adds pin chance to all physical damage, so you don't need to add it with support gems.

Hope that all makes sense!


Thank you so much !!! I've been asking in the game chat for a week now, it's the first time I get clarity on Resonance.

Hello Exile!

Of course you can! You just need to change some minor things in the support gems, some tweaking in the Tree and that should be it. I personally don't remember correctly what's the name of the gems or passive points but you can search it yourself and start experimenting by yourself if you wanna discover new things.

Hello Exile!

I've explained in the first post, but if you didn't read it: The game doesn't allow you to put Potential on Bonestorm, we don't know why.

Hope that helps!

How in the hell do you get the DEX needed for the spells and supports tho I dont get it


Hello Exile!

As I explained in the guide, it's a pain in the ass, just get the attribute requirements fulfilled however you can (gear or the tree), but getting DEX in the gear is really the most "easy" way to do it.

Thank you so much for this, have something to aim for as a complete noob. ;)

Where can we find the bleed variant btw? Ty!

Another noob here. Combat Frenzy requires 30 Spirit, which the supports for Life Remnants (Vitality and Clarity) also do, so I guess we're not expected to use Frenzy before getting to 60 Spirit?
