Hm, good tips, how do you think Life/EB/MoM/SRS will fare in 1.2.0 ?


Quite wonderfully; while life suffered a TINY bit, mana regen and pure mana nodes became more accessible. I think, unless the patch notes dictate a policy change, that it'll be quite valuable/viable in the next league.

Plus....it's fun!


Tried out the skill gem linked with Faster Casting, and it's pretty cool.

What kind of class is better suited (in 1.2.0) to go minion/EB/MoM and maybe some auras ?
Here's my take on a super-tanky, and surprisingly good dps tank:

I don't think builds revolving around uniques work for me. I'm not usually rich and the builds usually don't work without the uniques. I rather have a build based around skill gems and passives, which are then enhanced by uniques/strong rares, not the opposite.

That's true, the build needs at least 4 uniques :) They're all pretty affordable though, but then again thats relative too. Good luck to you sir, there are many builds out there :)

I started with http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/960795/page/1 as a launching point.

Build at level 87 (using witch):
(1.2)Puncture/Ice Shot duelist - http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1078942
(2.0)The Party Crasher - Hardcore viable Ice Crash Duelist - https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1335704

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned... *drum roll* ... searing bond. ^^
"Fixing the endgame was hard - No matter how hard we buffed red maps, people would keep spamming Gorges.
So we turned Gorge into a red map"
Yes, Searing Bond or Dual Flame Totem is very fast paced, and very easy to gear for...

I will probably start new league with this combination. (Searing until FT gems are around lvl 16+)
Alt Art items as League MTX - When?
The build by Krilox is extremely cheap man. All his gears should not cost more than 2 exalts. Take note that many players give away wings of entropy free.

Very hard to gear.

Never found/had an exalt, cheap is relative :(

But regardless, I welcome free gear if you've got some to spare. Of course if I have the uniques required for the build, then I'll check it out.
