POBs of things I request or literally nothing else you type in here matters.
I am done playing your games. POE2 should be the ruthless vision experience and POE1 should be the zoom power fantasy sandbox to capture both audiences.
I petition to return all the fun stuff that was removed or nerfed over the years back into POE1. |

"Okay. Frostbolt https://pobb.in/iLHsLXa9h4Uc *replace FroSS with 21/20 Frostbolt and Despair with Frostbite, as seen in the .gif Contagion https://pobb.in/BgVbTo5RzjhX *replace Vaal BoC with 21/20 Contagion and Focused Channelling/Infused Channelling with Empower (Level 3) and Concentrated Effect Support respectively. As stated in the initial response there's no cold damage or clusters on the Occultist. Neither is the rest of the build optimized, yet it got the job done. Why? Frostbolt has good base damage and can be pushed. The Trickster is high budget, and some of its items may cause some insecurities among lesser knowledgeable players, but the point stands. If you can push a 300 base damage ability into endgame you can make everything in this game work, even more so when you are not memeing around and use the alt-quality gems like GGG intended. Now is your turn. Prove me wrong why Cracklance can't be good. YouTube suggests otherwise but it appears you have rejected that evidence earlier in this thread. I, for one, don't like pressing too many buttons. That doesn't make me unskilled, lazy, complacent or whatever other descriptor you are trying to pluck from your vocabulary. - Unknown philosopher, ca. 2025 Last edited by Celestriad#0304 on Jan 25, 2026, 10:17:16 AM

" Uh oh Celest....you fell into a trap. Unlike actual gameplay footage, which you kindly already provided and was already written off and ignored, ANTHING can be argued on PoB spreadsheet viability. Even if you were to show a great crackling lance PoB, he'll then ask for video proof that it can perform! And then the post and goalpost will shift again.

" Frostbolt POB: First thing to mention - this is being carried by power charge stacking stale item combo that I despise being the go to for direct damage handcasting. I predicted this crutch is going to be used to prop us bad skills in this same thread and here it is. Next, also predicted in this same thread - I now change frostbolt for an actual skill and it immediately becomes more than 2x DPS: replace volley with gmp replace frostbolt with ice spear What incentive do I have to play frostbolt? None. So you just proved my points. Contagion POB: You immediately prove my point, predicted in this same thread, that the character you showcased was not designed for or leveled with base contagion gem. When I plug in contagion as you describe, it end up doing 1/25th of the damage of the real skill you play. 1/25th is for all intents and purposes is 0% when compared to 100%. I didn't even care about contagion, it was you who grabbed onto this and wanted to dunk on me by pretending base contagion gem deals damage. If the condition for dealing damage is this characters budget then it effectively, for all intents and purposes, deals no damage. And we didn't really need to go to this lenght to figure it out, it was all in the math that I initially laid out. [Removed by Support] You either were all this time gaslighting with full intention or genuinly lack the necessary understanding of the game to be arguing about its state of balance. POE2 should be the ruthless vision experience and POE1 should be the zoom power fantasy sandbox to capture both audiences. I petition to return all the fun stuff that was removed or nerfed over the years back into POE1. Last edited by Yrone_GGG#0000 on Jan 25, 2026, 11:45:33 AM

" "You fell into a trap by showing anything quantifiable instead of constant evasion" Careful, your true intention to never argue in good faith is showing a little bit too much when you say things like this :)))) POE2 should be the ruthless vision experience and POE1 should be the zoom power fantasy sandbox to capture both audiences.

And there we go... we are shifting goalposts again. So now you are dismissing the build because he didn't specifically level it for use with Contagion but used an existing build he had and rearranged it slightly just to show it's performing in endgame.
Again just dismissing any evidence presented on minutia and irrelevant standards. You are not a reasonable person and the way you are conducting yourself here is beneath you. Retain some dignity and just stop. The opposite of knowledge is not illiteracy, but the illusion of knowledge.

as predicted, goalposts to move. yet again.
Who was the one that said contagion as an example of a damaging support skill because it doesn't deal damage? Wait a minute, that was you?! And then you get shown contagion alone dealing enough damage to kill a t17 boss. Now what was your argument about frostbolt again? That it can't possibly be designed as a supportive skill because it deals damage? And that it can't perform self-cast? You have been given proof in every form possible at this point, contradicting your most basic asks. Yet you have the gall to accuse others of gaslighting and no knowledge of the game? Adding random qualifications to your previous statements AFTERWARD is the very definition of goalpost shifting, and a sign of a bad faith arguer. This is why you wanted PoB's instead of more videos. No matter what is presented, you will restrict it further still until we are required to provide a PoB and a video of a build using frostbolt to kill an uber boss on a 2L with no passive tree points allocated. Hence the sarcastic post to Celest....and exactly what you ended up doing. Only THEN will you potentially admit you were just plain wrong and stop this endless disrespect and wild asks of others.

" The silver lining to this exchange is that I'm going to start the Phrecia event in Hardcore with Infernal Blow, another "bad" (0.0% on softcore trade poe.ninja!) skill, and clear content with it that some people in this thread have probably never seen before, and certainly haven't cleared. And the entire time, I'm going to be thinking about this thread and laughing. And then I'm going to make a character which uses Frost Wall as its primary DPS skill, and take it to T17 maps. Because I can. |

You implied time and time again that I knew not what I was talking about it. And it turns out it was you all along.
It is you lot who lost all dignity and credibility here. I suspected this was a waste of my time since you were evading the proper meat of the matter. But now that we had a glimpse into the meat I know for sure. I will still call you out whenever you say something that is nonense but no more "debating". POE2 should be the ruthless vision experience and POE1 should be the zoom power fantasy sandbox to capture both audiences.
